Chapter 65: Released from prison
There are many female inmates serving sentences in the prison, some middle-aged aunts, mothers in their thirties and forties who miss their young children, and countless girls who are about the same age as her.
The faces full of dust and years, the eyes that revealed sadness and loneliness, were not curious about the new female prisoners who came from time to time, Xia Xingkong pinched his sleeves and followed the prison guards into his cell indifferently.
There were four female prisoners in a cell, Xia Xingkong indifferently followed the rules of the prison, got up early, ate some coarse tea and light rice at will and went to work.
An Yu had asked someone to put in a lot of money to take care of her before she came in, so no prison guard dared to embarrass her.
She has always kept silent and done her part, and the other female prisoners who were locked up together did not dare to trouble her.
In a chilling place like a prison, Xia Xingkong couldn't sleep well at first, and in the middle of the night, she would sit quietly on the bed and watch the moonlight coming out of that small gap......
What is he doing now?
Have you completely forgotten that there is a person named Xia Xingkong?
Is it very contemptuous of her?
Is it with that talkative girl?
Is it natural to help her change her slippers?
Is it thoughtful to pour water for her?
Is it hugging her waist and rubbing her hair dotingly?
Did you gently cuddle her to your chest and fall asleep?
Will you see your parents soon?
Isn't it......
Xia Xingkong covered his face, and tears continued to soak from the gap between his delicate hands and onto the back of his hands.
Her shoulders trembled uncontrollably, she put down her hand and bit her sleeve and didn't dare to whimper, her head covered in the quilt and shrunk into a ball.
Gradually, she got used to this kind of day of atonement.
An Xin was going to school, and An Yu was afraid that she would be lonely, so she came to see her regularly.
I ran over once every three days, just watched her quietly through the glass, and left when the time came.
If she travels a lot, she will come over in half a month, and I brought her a lot of books to expel the depressing environment.
Xia Zhixing, who had served less than half a year in prison, came to see her tremblingly in a wheelchair, his hair was much whiter, his face was thin, she didn't know that Xia Zhixing's body was already so bad.
After Xia Zhixing left, she suddenly couldn't control her uncomfortable tears, saying that she was not sad was false.
She still remembers the first time she saw Xia Zhixing, although he lost his son in middle age, he was dignified and calm at that time, with a pair of eyes shooting cold stars, two curved eyebrows like paint, and a broad chest, which was quite invincible.
She hated him and respected him.
In a trance, it disappeared completely.
He's really old.
Since then, Xia Zhixing has never been here.
Later, she took Bai Hua to attend Xia Zhixing's funeral, Han Mumei did not come, she looked at the vicissitudes of the old man's face on the tombstone, her eyes gradually blurred, she blinked hard to see the things in front of her, but the tears that overflowed her eyes surged uncontrollably, dripping on the grass one after another.
She thought she wouldn't cry.
For 21 years, she has not called Xia Zhixing a grandfather.
An Yu told her that after Zhou Yanshao's death, Zhou's stock fell more than once, the board of directors was in turmoil, Yu Wanqin became more and more crazy, and Zhou Yangfeng's only purpose was to defeat the Xia family, who had long been left with an empty shell, and of course, let her be buried with her, Xia Zhixing was already sick when she was serving her sentence.
After going bankrupt, Han Mumei moved away.
All the properties in the Xia family's name were sold, and Fu Meiyuan's residence was also seized.
Now she has nothing but the air she can breathe whenever and wherever she wants.
An Yu squatted on the ground, patted Xia Xingkong's back, looked at her lonely back and spoke, "Grandpa Xia said...... Actually, you misunderstood him, he has always behaved in a proper manner, and the child that Aunt Han is pregnant with is not his.
Aunt Han has always been treated like a daughter by him since she was a child, and he will be responsible for Grandpa Han entrusting her to him, Uncle Xia is already sorry for Aunt Han, and he can't destroy her anymore.
Also, Grandpa Xia said I'm sorry for you, he was too stubborn before, it was his fault, I hope you forgive him. ”
A burst of sadness accompanied by pain welled up in his heart, Xia Xingkong stood up and wiped away his tears, and left without looking back.
She knew that the celebrity Xia family no longer existed.
In the future, no matter what, it's really just her.
A quarter of her life is just a perfect interpretation of the sad life of an illegitimate daughter who is not recognized by the family.
She really didn't know how to let go.
Anyway, she doesn't want to care about who is right and who is wrong, everything is meaningless.
The earth rotates as usual, and the living people still rest at sunrise and sunset, just a summer family, just a summer starry sky, insignificant.
Time has passed, the Zhou family has completely collapsed, and the provincial secretary general of W Province has been anonymously reported for favoritism and corruption, and after a thorough investigation, the evidence is conclusive, and the provincial secretary general Yu Huasheng was imprisoned.
In this turmoil in the name of love, no one has benefited.
Xia Xingkong looked up at the gray sky and saw the snowflakes falling from the gray sky, and reached out to catch them.
Mu Zhan, I don't know who is accompanying you now, and if you will remember me.
I often dream of you, and I often dream of myself, but rarely dream of me being with you.
Xia Xingkong wiped the tears on his face and cried something, this is a good thing.
Because Xia Xingkong behaved well during his sentence and was conscientious and responsible for his work, his sentence was reduced by 2 years.
After waiting for countless days and nights, accustomed to countless days and nights, Xia Xingkong looked at the closed iron door behind him.
The spring sun is delicate, the blue sky is high and cloudless, and it is almost transparent.
She did it, punished her, Zhou Yanshao, and she and he didn't owe each other in the future.
6 years and 3 months are like a lifetime away.
She came out.
No matter how far back the years are, time is gone, like a stubborn vine, and her smile has never been wiped out.
In the future, she will cover those bloody wounds and try to live like a normal person.
An Xin hugged Xia Xingkong tightly with tears in her eyes, choked up and said, "Starry Sky, we are here to pick you up, and An Yu and I will raise you for the rest of your life." ”
Xia Xingkong pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay." ”
An Yu stepped forward, "Starry sky, everything will be fine in the future." ”
Xia Xingkong nodded, "Hmm." ”
An Xin wiped her tears and hugged Xia Xingkong's arm tightly, "Starry Sky, let's go back, my parents are waiting for us at home." ”
"Okay."
Xia Xingkong looked at the strange and familiar street outside the car window, it has been 6 years......
An Xin held Xia Xingkong's hand all the way, carefully staring at any reaction from her.
I guess I'm afraid that she will hurt the scene, right?
Xia Xingkong turned his head to An Xin, and the corners of his mouth rose, and the dazzling starry sky was still printed in his eyes, "I'm fine." ”
She wanted to cry even more like this.
Her starry sky has been in prison for 6 years, suffered for 26 years, and is alone, so delicate that her hands already have a thin layer of coarse calluses.
"Starry sky, if you are sad, cry out."
Cry? A very unfamiliar word, after leaving Mu Zhan and losing her child, her tears may have dried up.
In prison, she deserves to suffer whether it is bitter or boring.
In the past 6 years, she has been Zhou Yanshao, she must be punished for killing someone, and she is willing.
Xia Xingkong leaned his head against the car window and said, "No." ”
While driving, An Yu turned his head and glared at An Xin, "Don't talk so much." ”
An Xin obediently closed her mouth, "Oh." ”
Back at An's house, a small brazier was placed at the door, and Yang Cuizhu and An Xiangyang stood at the door.
Yang Cuizhu had tears in her eyes, and her heart was uncomfortable, "Starry sky, I'm back." ”
"Uncle, aunt."
Yang Cuizhu and An Xiangyang hurriedly agreed, "Good, step over this brazier and go to bad luck, and it will be prosperous in the future." ”
Xia Xingkong nodded, "Hmm." ”
Stepping over the brazier, Yang Cuizhu took Xia Xingkong's hand and walked inside, "Starry sky, this will be your home in the future, and your uncle and I can afford to support you." ”
An Xiangyang: "Yes, don't think about it too much, live here with peace of mind, and you will have what An Yu and An Xin have." ”
Xia Xingkong pursed his lips and chuckled, "Okay." ”
Yang Cuizhu immediately cried when she saw Xia Xingkong laughing, wiping her tears with her hand.
An Yu held Yang Cuizhu's shoulder, "Mom, you should be happy today, why are you crying?" ”
Yang Cuizhu sniffed, wiped away her tears, and smiled, "Yes, I'm happy, An Xin, you take Starry Sky to her room to take a bath first, and then come down for dinner." ”
"Oh, good."
An Xin received the order to take Xia Xingkong's hand and go upstairs, "Starry sky, slow down." ”
Xia Xingkong chuckled, "An Xin, thank you." ”
In this life, she should be content to know such a family.
An Xin pouted and leaned towards Xia Xingkong, "Thank me for what?" ”
Xia Xingkong hid to the side, his hand against An Xin's head, "I'm dirty." ”
An Xin knocked off Xia Xingkong's hand and arched his face towards Xia Xingkong, "Where is dirty, it's not dirty at all." ”
It is false to say that she is not moved, Xia Xingkong felt a warm current in her heart, and she patted An Xin's head, "It's like a child when she's so old." ”
An Xin nodded coquettishly, "I'm still a little girl." ”
Passing through the living room and crossing the corridor, An Xin brought Xia Xingkong into a bedroom that had been converted from the original guest room, and specially renovated it, which was the same pink color as Fumei Yuanli, warm and generous.
On the table is a photo of Fumei Genri.
An Xin took out all the things she needed before the house was taken away.
An Xin put her hands on Xia Xingkong's shoulders, put her head on one arm on one side, and pushed her inside, "Do you like it?" I chose it. ”
"It's pretty good."
An Xin pouted, "I'll just say it's good-looking, An Yufei said you don't like it." ”
Xia Xingkong chuckled silently.
An Xin pushed her to a wardrobe again, An Xin let go of Xia Xingkong and opened the wardrobe, which was full of almost a cabinet of clothes.
An Xin crossed her fingers and clasped her chin tightly, "Starry sky, do you think I chose a beautiful dress for you?" ”
"Beautiful."
An Xin picked a few and put them in Xia Xingkong's hand, and pushed her into the bathroom, "You go take a bath, and you will eat later." ”
"Okay."
The shower was turned on, the bathroom was suddenly misty, and Xia Xingkong stood in front of the blurred mirror, from today on, she was reborn.
