July 13th

I ran out of the side door of the apartment as if I was desperate, only to realize that I had come out barefoot. At that time, in Luo Shicheng's office, he was afraid that his footsteps would disturb the security guards outside the door, so he simply took off his shoes. But at the most critical moment, he left his shoes on the scene, leaving Luo Shicheng with a conclusive evidence.

I hated my pig brain, and complained that I was always so lacking in heart. Helplessly, he took a taxi barefoot, and without thinking about it, he reported the location of Yu Gang's prison. The taxi driver looked back at me, but said nothing, and remained professionally silent.

At night, there are few cars on the road, cars are speeding in the dark, and the trees on both sides retreat in a panic. My phone started ringing over and over again. It was Luo Shicheng who called, and it seems that he already knew that I had left the apartment. I refused to answer his call, not wanting to hear the man's voice again.

I found Luo Shicheng's phone number and sent him a message: Luo Shicheng, we have broken up, don't look for me again!

Almost a second later, Luo Shicheng sent me a message back: Bing'er, you don't have the right to break up. I, Luo Shicheng, must be you! I love you, Bing'er!

The taxi drove by the moat, the night breeze was as cool as water, and the river was dotted with stars. I rolled down the window, waved my arms outward, and threw my phone into the river. I'm going to break off with Luo Shicheng completely. Although I am very attached to him in my heart, it is difficult to leave him, but for the sake of the little dignity I have left, I have to force myself to make a complete decision with him!

I wouldn't starve to death without food. A bowl of white porridge and a steamed bun are enough to feed me. A piece of mustard gnocchi pickles, I can still eat it with relish.

I wouldn't freeze to death without a mansion villa, I could live in my own nest. The golden nest and silver nest are not as good as my own kennel, no matter how poor the kennel is, my privacy can be protected and will not be monitored and viewed.

There is no luxury car to get around, I can take the bus. The bus is spacious and bright, you can stand as you like, and you can turn your body 360 degrees without dead ends. The bus is very popular, and you can see hundreds of different faces every day, and you can also directly learn about the price of the day's dishes. Will there be these benefits if you ride in a luxury car?

Luo Shicheng is very good, but unfortunately I can't afford it. As much as you get, you will give accordingly. The amount of superficial glory you have gained, the amount of shame you have to bear behind your back. This world is very fair, there are gains and losses, and there are losses and gains. The choice between them depends entirely on your heart's needs.

If I am as rich as Luo Shicheng, as noble as I am born, and if I am as upside-down as my face, then I will definitely let him learn to love me equally! I want to rely on my wisdom and love to make it difficult for him to leave me in his life. I also want to show my wealth, so that he cannot bribe my love with material things, and condescendingly demand it from me. When he is in financial difficulties, I will lend a hand in time, throw him millions, and then tell him lightly: money, it's really nothing, I value love more!

In this way, I will make him look up to me, or at least see me as an equal. I want to point at Luo Shicheng's nose and shout at him now: Luo Shicheng, although I am poor and small, and I look ordinary, my soul is noble! The emotions in my heart cannot be trampled on! My humble self-esteem needs to be treated with kindness!

While I was meditating, the taxi stopped on a deserted roadside. The driver said indifferently, the prison has arrived, please get out of the car!

I picked up my pocket in a panic, and suddenly remembered that I didn't have a wallet on me. I was so embarrassed that I desperately touched the two skirt pockets, but fortunately I found more than 90 yuan. I counted and handed the money to the driver. There is still a difference of two yuan in fare. I begged with no dignity, Master Driver, that's all I have on me.

The driver turned around, glared at me with disdain, waved his hand at me impatiently, and motioned for me to get out of the car quickly. I opened the door and stepped barefoot out of the car, embarrassed like a stray dog.

It's a big uphill slope in front of you. The rough asphalt road is a bit awkward to step on. I was wearing a purple floral dress, and the breeze was blowing through me, bringing a slight chill. I didn't have a watch, I threw away my phone, I don't know what time it is?

I looked at the vast starry sky, and a bright moon hung in the sky, and the bright light fell on the earth. I lifted the hem of my skirt and walked uphill with the pain in the soles of my feet. As long as you climb this big slope, it is the prison where Yu Gang is located.

From a distance, I saw two policemen with guns standing guard on either side of the prison gates. The high wall and deep courtyard are dark and solemn. Yu Gang inside this high wall, I don't know if he has adapted to life inside? Now that Yu Gang has lost his freedom, how will he spend those long nights? Does the life of confinement, day and night, still have a specific meaning?

I walked to the side of the road, wrapped my skirt tight, and sat down on the hard curb. I looked forward to the sky shining and prayed that the morning would come soon. Suddenly, there was a sound of stumbling footsteps, from far to near.

I stared vigilantly at the dark shadow in front of me. The dark shadow was getting closer and closer to me, and an elderly woman carrying a flat pole appeared in front of me. She was panting, with a white towel around her neck, her back bent and her body leaning forward. The pair of flat shoulders trembled up and down on her shoulders. When she first spotted me, she seemed startled. But she quickly calmed down, put down her burden, and sat down next to me.

Girl, you're here so early? I thought that as long as I was an old woman, I would run here at night! The eldest lady ripped off the white towel around her neck and wiped the beads of sweat that kept flowing down her face. With a simple smile on his wrinkled face, he greeted me.

I called out to my mother, um, and didn't speak again.

The eldest mother then said to me, "I have come to see my son." I already came here yesterday to give my son salted duck eggs. My son is most willing to eat salted duck eggs marinated in yellow mud, saying that the duck eggs I pickled are the best. Early yesterday morning, I brought two jars of salted duck eggs to my son. As a result, the jar containing duck eggs did not meet the regulations and could not be sent in. So, I went all over the world to pick up drink bottles, and finally put all these duck eggs in the bottles. Hehe, you see that the two bamboo baskets I picked were given to me by an old lady who went to the city to buy vegetables.

The tired face of the eldest lady always has a contented smile, as if she will never have any complaints about life.

Unconsciously, I seemed to be infected by the gentle and peaceful emotions of the eldest mother. Auntie, what happened to your son? Seeing that you are so kind and so good to your son, he must be very filial to you.

The eldest lady nodded with satisfaction. Yes, girl, my son is filial and sensible since he was a child. If it weren't for the fact that I was pushed to the ground by the people who came to demolish my home, my son would not have seriously injured them! It's all my fault for this, an old woman. The ancestral house of the family will be demolished, and the money given is not much, so I am reluctant to move away! Who knows, just because I couldn't think about it for a while, I put my son's future into it!

I looked at my aunt sympathetically, unable to think of anything to comfort her. Auntie, don't be sad. As long as your son is reformed inside, maybe his sentence will be commuted.

The corners of the eldest lady's eyes overflowed with cloudy old tears, crisscrossing the furrows on her face. She nodded at me gratefully, thank you, girl, you are so kind-hearted. By the way, who are you looking for?

I was speechless for a moment. After a long time, I said hesitantly, I came to see my brother. He accidentally stabbed someone and broke the law.

The eldest lady looked at me sadly and pursed the corners of her mouth. Girl, don't be sad, how can you not encounter ditches and bumps in your life? It's rare that you are so hearted, your brother will definitely be dedicated to transformation when he sees you, and strive to come out as soon as possible! With such a good girl as you waiting for her, can he not look forward to coming out early?

I nodded silently, fell to my knees, and fell asleep at some point. I dreamed that I had fallen into an abyss, bitterly cold, so black that I couldn't see my fingers. I groped my way forward, and it seemed like a beast was chasing me behind me, roaring close to me. I was so exhausted from running that I could no longer move my legs, and I collapsed to the ground in despair. I closed my eyes and waited for the terrible moment to come. At this moment, I felt a pair of hands gently pushing me.

Girl, girl, wake up! We can go in, it's time for visiting. I opened my eyes in a daze, and saw that the lady was looking at my feet strangely.

I hurriedly tucked my feet in, laughing and saying that I was in such a hurry to walk last night that I lost my shoes. Still, it's okay, I'll be able to buy a pair later.

I'm afraid that the old lady will worry about my feet, and I'm afraid that she will think about my shoes.

When my aunt heard this, I would be able to buy shoes later, and then I relaxed. She believed my words so deeply that I felt a little guilty in my heart.

We walked inside the walls together and went to our respective reception rooms.

I told the prison guards that I was Yu Gang's sister. That person seems to have a little impression of me, I have been here a few times, but Yu Gang refuses to see me.

I waited for a long time in the reception room, imagining what Yu Gang would be like? What would be the first thing he would say when he saw me? If he is thin and emaciated, can I hold back my sad tears and pretend to be happy? Yu Gang's favorite thing to see is that I am happy, and if I am sad, he will be more heartbroken than me.

I stood barefoot and embarrassed by the white wall. Finally, the prison guards came. Why, I can't see Yu Gang? I was so lonely.

The prison guard looked at me with pity and said, Yu Gang said, he doesn't want to see you, so you don't want to come to this kind of place in the future. By the way, he asked me to give you two keys, this is the key to his house, one is the key to the unit door, and the other is the key to the door. You can live there for a long time, he said, and the money and passbook are in the drawer of the bed, and you can use them freely. The passbook password is your birthday.

I couldn't hold back my tears anymore and poured out of my eyes. I took the key, tried to suppress my sobs, said thank you to the guards, and turned and walked out.

Yu Gang still refused to see me. Did he foresee my situation and give me the keys to the house, so that I could have a comfortable place to stay? He doesn't want to see me because he doesn't want me to see him as he is? Or, he still can't let go of his heart, I'm married to another man?

I hid my face and wept, unable to stop my sudden cry, and covered my mouth tightly. I walked out of the gate and saw a succession of people coming towards the gate. My body is tired and hungry, and from last night to now, the particles are not exhausted.

I walked down the long slope numbly, the sun was too strong, and the heat was so hot that I was enveloped by it. With one hand over my eyes, I cowered on the side of the road, waiting for the scarce taxi. When I finally saw an empty car, I waved eagerly at the driver.

The car stopped, and I didn't dare to go straight up because I didn't have a penny on me. I stood by the window and said to the driver pitifully, "Master, I forgot to bring my wallet, can I wait until I get out of the car to withdraw the money from you?"

The driver's face was full of spring breeze, and after hearing me say that he had no money, he immediately glared at me fiercely as if he had swallowed a fly. Then, avoid it and go away.

My heart was overwhelmed. What self-esteem, what dignity, it's all useless bullshit at this moment! Fortunately, I won't meet acquaintances in this place, otherwise I would be so embarrassed!

I stood stupidly in the sun, expecting to meet a taxi again, and I would plead with the driver. At this time, I suddenly regretted throwing my phone into the river last night, otherwise, I could have used my phone to guarantee the fare at this time. I couldn't wait for a second taxi, so I had to walk aimlessly.

I noticed that on the right side of the intersection, there was a coach parked. It was as if I had met a great savior, and I ran over with all my remaining strength. It doesn't matter where it goes, as long as it can get me out of the city quickly, the rest will be fine.

I hurried to the door of the car, raised my legs and stepped forward, for fear that they would drive me down. However, I was about to step up the staircase when a big hand stopped me and hugged me down. I exclaimed, and was held tightly in my arms by the big hand.
