The Dark King – Chapter 3
The New Beginning
"Doctor?" Suddenly, a young woman dressed in a gray gown asked Dudian: "Child, I am a doctor. Are you willing to be my child?"
Dudian has noted in his mind that the woman took the initiative to speak. Originally, he was holding an adventurous att.i.tude to refuse the gardener. Other people were afraid of offending each other so didn’t dare to pick him. The woman’s ident.i.ty seemed to be not so terrible.
Dudian did not know that doctors in this world were even less in numbers than he imagined. Although it is still a civilian occupation but it is a rare civilian job.
In a manner it could be said that it is a senior occupation. If only the Mel family’s steward came, no one would dare to pick this child. But a mere gardener is only on level of ordinary civilians such as "miners", "tailor".
Dudian looked positively at her. Young woman’s cheeks had very soft lines. She was smiling and two shallow dimples were vividly seen. She was looking at Dudian in a gentle manner as if a mother was looking at her son. His cold heart was melting under her gentle gaze. He nodded and said "I’m willing."
Middle-aged gardener’s face turned slightly ugly. But after looking at the young women he hold back and did not say anything. But in his heart he secretly felt sorry for Dudian. After all, Dudian is too young, short-sighted. Doctors are good, but not every doctor’s children, can learn their parents ability. There is a very difficult barrier for entry and a lot of energy has to be spent. In case he won’t success to be a doctor, the kid would end up as a low-level n.o.body.
Gardener is different though. As long as one has good memory, you are able to start. In his case, as the Mel family gardener. It’s far away from the ghetto area. In the future can inherit his gardener ident.i.ty. For life can stay in Mel family’s home, it is the dream to many.
Unfortunately, ah, unfortunately!
Middle-aged gardener shook his head.
Other children who saw the young woman who was the doctor had already chosen Dudian, could not help but look ugly. Barton and other deformed children were much better, although a little jealous. Nevertheless Dudian took away their valuable opportunity so rest of the children had resentment and jealousy in their hearts.
Dudian had an auspicious smile. Dudian is one of the few in orphanage who was pleasing to doctor’s eyes. Moreover he is not foolish, at least has white clean skin, people are comfortable around him because of his looks.
Dai aunt turned to the young woman said: "Dudian was very well-behaved here. We hope that you take good care of him after, and I wish you a happy life."
"I will." Young women smiled, "my heart is extremely happy."
"Mina, you take them to apply for household registration procedures." Dai aunt said to a middle-aged woman next to her.
The middle-aged woman, called ‘Mina,’ waved to Dudian and laughed at the young woman, "Come with me."
"Dean, come on!"
"Dean, do not forget us!"
"Remember to come back and see us!"
Barton, and other deformed
"I’ll be back, but you will not be discouraged," said Dudian, who had been taken care of by them for three months. "Maybe you will all be adopted when I came back."
Barton and other deformed children, although knew the answer in their heart, but still laughed.
"I will choose you." Dudian was ready to leave, when he suddenly heard the words of the middle-aged gardener. Dudian could not help but look and saw him pointing to the Lisa, smiled and said: "Little girl, you think well, how about being my daughter?
Lisa stared at him, his face a look of disbelief.
She could not help but look at other healthy children around her.
Dudian took a look, then withdrew his eyes, went to the front of Mina aunt. He left with Mina and his about to become his own "mother".
Afterwards he and the children of the orphanage will each live in their own homes. Perhaps they will no longer meet.
…
…
In orphanage the household registration procedures were very simple.
First, verify the ident.i.ty of the adopter.
Second, verify the work of the adopters to prove their capability to support the child.
The purpose of the above two points is to determine whether the adoptive person has the conditions of adoption stipulated by the law.
If you do not work, or your wages are low, you do not have the qualifications to adopt a child.
Finally, the third point is to sign a contract, and confirm the adoption relations.h.i.+p.
Finally, and most importantly. Is the monetary part of the adoption!
Yes, this is the world’s orphanage’s main source of income. In the old days, the orphanage only needs to confirm the conditions for adoption. It does not need money. But it is different here. It is adoption. It is the same as "selling" a product. The only difference is that right now it is legal for orphanages to "sell" children.
Dudian has not seen this world money. He saw his "mother" taking out a stack of thick green notes, although the size of the note was the same as the old era ones. Printed above the note was a giant wall. Sylvia looks like a place covered by a giant wall.
Dudian clearly saw his "mother" handing the stack of money to smiling Aunt Mina. It was clear to him now, why children were so easily accepted into orphanage. In orphanage they selflessly separate food and shelter to children. They stay here in just a few months and can bring them such a big sum of money.
Dudian sighed and felt that he may well understand the difference between the two worlds(old era and the new one). The survival of the fittest, either to adapt to this world or let the world to adapt to their own.
At this time, after the payment procedure is finished young women signed the contract and put it away. She bent over to caress Dudian’s hair.
Dudian looked at her pale brown eyes. He knew that this woman will be the person to rely on in the future. He was silent for a moment, said: "I can call you aunt Ju (Zhu)?"
Jura was confused slightly.
Mina heard Dudian talks and sai: "Do not bend the rules, and now she is your mother. Be good to her. Do not disappoint our orphanage reputation."
Jura smiled, stroking Dudian ‘s hair in a gentle and authentic manner:" You want to call me aunt Ju. Alright, I will wait until you get used to.
Dudian had a trace of warmth on his face and softly said: "Thank you."
He is really grateful because he knows that once adopted, his life and death is entirely in the hands of the adoptive parents. He also knows from other children’s mouth that, in this world, even if the parents killed their children. It is … … is legal.
Jura smiled, "Let ‘s go back and take you to our new home."
…
…
Jura’s home in the neighborhood.
All the inhabitants here are ordinary residents with jobs. Living environment with the slums are totally different. Just the taste of the air is much more fresh. There is no stenchy odor and no rotten odor.
In the huge residential areas, Jura’s living conditions also belong to the more upstream lifestyle. The price of the land here is twice as high as in the north because it is close to the slums in the north and close to the commercial area in the south.
If a person can live in the commercial area or in military area, then they are either very influential or very wealthy. Money spent to buy houses in those areas is an astronomical figure which some people may not earn in lifetime.
Each area has a high giant wall barrier. Gates open only during the day, dividing Silva into many areas. North does not face south. The north is made up of slums. In the south of the slum is a residential area.
This means that people in the neighborhood are free to go to slums, business people are free to go to the neighborhood but slum people are not able to access the residential area. Their civilian status is not enough to make them access better areas.
