Answer:
Willing to do anything to leave the orphanage.
Explanation:
Richard Wright's memoir "Black Boy" details his upbringing from childhood through the events like his father's absence in the family and also his infidelity. Added to that, the family was experiencing poverty and even his father's dismissive treatment of his own family, his wife and children included.
When he mentions "<em>my hate for my father was not so great and urgent as my hate for the orphan home</em>", we can know for sure that he hated the orphanage extremely. As much as he hated his father for abandoning his family and living openly with another woman, he hated the orphanage more. So, he agreed to go to his father to ask for money so that they can go to his aunt's place in Arkansas. His contempt for the orphanage was such that he was willing to meet the man he hated the most if it means he will be out of the very same place he despises. This excerpt showed how much he was willing to do to leave the orphanage home.
