Expedition to Europe

Chapter 144 Santa Claus

In Europe, generally speaking, when a child is born, he or she will be baptized in the church, and then he or she will have a Christian name and a godfather.

These children all come from good families, and they must have had godfathers before.

But these children have fallen to this point, and no one has come to their aid. I think their godfathers have either suffered the same fate or have drawn a clear line and kept their distance.

It is understandable that one should stick to his or her side, and that one should be prudent and protect oneself.

It is just a pity for these children. They are exposed to the dark side of society too early, and I don’t know if it will leave a shadow in their young hearts. We can only wait for time to test it.

Since Qin Zhiyuan agreed to be the godfather of these children, he will take responsibility and be fully responsible for the children’s education and growth.

The first and most important thing is to solve the children’s living problems.

The next day was Christmas. Qin Zhiyuan did not arrange anything and invited several tailors to make clothes for the children.

Before that, there was one more thing to do, which was to prepare Christmas gifts for the children.

Qin Zhiyuan thought that Christmas gifts would be distributed on Christmas morning, but after asking Julie, he found out that they were distributed before Christmas Eve dinner.

Qin Zhiyuan was too busy on Christmas Eve, so he didn't have time to prepare, so he postponed the distribution to the next morning. The children had just arrived at Black Swan Castle yesterday, and they were unfamiliar with everything here. They must not be prepared to receive gifts, so Qin Zhiyuan prepared to give these children an unexpected surprise.

For this reason, Qin Zhiyuan found a bunch of red socks overnight to prepare for gifts. Not only these eight children, but some of Mary's friends also brought children, a total of about 30.

This made Qin Zhiyuan start to consider whether to set up a school to educate these children to learn knowledge and master some survival skills.

School is a matter for the future, and the current task is to give gifts.

Time is tight, so Qin Zhiyuan didn't prepare too many gifts. Each girl had a beautiful pair of scissors, hoping that they would have a pair of dexterous hands in the future. Then each of them also had a big teddy bear produced by Stephen Company. Qin Zhiyuan hoped that this teddy bear could accompany the girls to grow up healthily and happily.

Each boy had a small unsharpened dagger. Qin Zhiyuan hoped that they would have a healthy body and a brave spirit. There was also a military emblem of the First Brigade, with a sword and shield as the background and an exploding shell. Qin Zhiyuan hoped that the First Brigade could become the children's permanent home.

In the night, Qin Zhiyuan and Julie presented gifts to the children one by one.

The boys lived in the last two rooms on the west side of the second floor. There were two bunk beds in the house. Four people could live in one room, and the five boys lived in two rooms respectively. The girls lived in Misha's room. For some reason, Misha paid special attention to the three girls. She did not let the girls live in the room prepared for them, but lived with her.

This puzzled Qin Zhiyuan. He wondered if Misha had a similar experience.

Qin Zhiyuan also prepared a gift for Misha, a set of surgical instruments made in Germany. In the field of precision machinery, the achievements of the Germans are commendable.

Qin Zhiyuan always remembered that when he first met Misha, Misha was a nurse.

Qin Zhiyuan didn't turn on the light, and he and Julie tiptoed into the children's room.

The children had already rested, and their thin and shallow breathing mixed with occasional snoring indicated that they had entered a deep sleep. Even if they were already asleep, some children would still convulse in their sleep, and occasionally make intermittent sleep talk.

The children were really too tired. During the days of wandering, I'm afraid they had never had a good sleep. Now that they finally have a home, the children have not really put their minds at ease. It will take more time for them to sleep peacefully.

Qin Zhiyuan and Julie checked the sleeping children one by one, and put the red socks with gifts next to their pillows, ensuring that they would see them when they woke up tomorrow.

Just as Qin Zhiyuan and Julie turned to leave, Hyman Herbert burst into tears. The eleven-year-old child fumbled to pick up the red socks next to the pillow, pressed it tightly against his chest, and felt the warmth left by Qin Zhiyuan. At this moment, his thoughts were full of warmth and love, and a feeling of being willing to die happily arose from the bottom of his heart.

There was a slight sobbing sound from the bed next to him, and Heyman knew that Alexander was not asleep either.

Yes, the children had just arrived in a strange environment, how could they fall asleep peacefully. They had learned to disguise, hide their true thoughts, and protect themselves when they were wandering.

Those who could not learn had become corpses, buried deep in the suburbs of Paris, and no one could remember that they had ever come to this world.

When entering the girls' room, Qin Zhiyuan knocked on the door. This was Misha's room, and Qin Zhiyuan couldn't just push the door open.

Misha hadn't slept yet. When she saw Qin Zhiyuan, she was surprised and confused, and when she saw Julie, she was left with deep disappointment.

Little bitch!

Julie's heart was full of malice.

Don't be complacent!

Misha didn't give up.

"I'll come and see the children." Qin Zhiyuan gestured to the red socks in his hand.

"Okay, they just went to bed." Misha replied softly.

The three little girls all slept in Misha's bed. They cuddled up to each other and hid their heads in the quilt, showing an extreme lack of security. The little ones were still wearing the clothes, and they were reluctant to take them off even when they were sleeping. They were afraid that someone would take them away after they fell asleep. In that case, they would return to the miserable situation of having nothing before today.

Giraldin slept restlessly. Her hands were wrapped in thick bandages and her face was smeared with ointment. Because there was no tape, Misha carefully bandaged the wound with the bandage. Perhaps because the wound was healing and itchy, Giraldin would rub the bandage every once in a while to relieve it.

Qin Zhiyuan lovingly helped them tidy up the quilt, put the teddy bear at the head of the bed, and put the red socks under the pillow, preparing to give them a big surprise tomorrow morning.

Misha looked at Qin Zhiyuan busy with tender eyes, and Julie did not help, staring at Misha with a slightly provocative look.

"Congratulations." Misha sighed.

"Thank you!" Julie was satisfied.

Misha bit her lip, not interested in continuing the conversation.

Qin Zhiyuan put the gift away, turned around and walked out the door, turned back halfway and handed Misha a red sock.

"Mine?" Misha was surprised.

"Yes! Merry Christmas!" Qin Zhiyuan smiled brightly.

Almost in an instant, Misha felt a pang of sadness in her heart. Looking at Qin Zhiyuan's bright smile and Julie's almost crazy expression, Misha sighed slightly in her heart.

Perhaps there is really no pure friendship between men and women.
