The day I was released from prison was a sunny day, and the wind of March in the world blew from the other side of the hill, mixed with a hint of warmth into the prison courtyard, which made me feel a little surprised.

I used to look forward to leaving the place day and night, but when I really left, I had an indescribable emotion in my heart, this emotion was by no means reluctant, and there was no nostalgia, but I just faintly felt as if some of my marks had been deeply imprinted here, and I couldn't take it away! Can't forget!

Probably because I finally stepped into the footsteps of Lao Bu, but I haven't been here as long as him, and I still have the courage to go out, no matter whether the world has isolated me or not, I probably won't choose Lao Bu's path.

Don Jr. and his brothers in the prison have already said goodbye to me, and they have been sent to a place I don't know about planting trees, so I won't be seen off when I leave, which is exactly what I want.

If Xiao Tang is here, in the face of my departure, he who is as sentimental as a poet will probably shed tears on the spot!

More than three years of prison life seem to have made my body gradually numb to suffering, and at the same time, my heart has become soft again. I will never see tears again!

The warden encouraged me earnestly, and this middle-aged man with a handsome appearance and a tall figure never seemed to show such a look, as if he was making a final request to an old friend who was about to leave for a long time.

I wore the same clothes I wore when I came in, and I stood in front of the warden and listened quietly to his teachings.

If my memory of that dress is not confused, it is probably that Mu Xichun bought it for me, and the reason for buying it was to be able to see his father decently! I remember this dress being the most expensive dress I ever worn.

It's just a few years of placement, and it has already lost its former luster, some wrinkles and some deformations, and it seems to have become a little looser. I know that my body at the moment is no longer able to support this dress.

The warden patted me on the shoulder and said, let's go!

I groaned slightly, and I had a lot to say, but I couldn't say it for a while.

The warden kept dropping me off at the prison gate and waving at me!

Out of the gate, I stood still and turned around, took one last look at everything that had become familiar here, and then left without looking back!

In fact, I only stayed in it for three and a half years during the seven-and-a-half-year sentence, and I didn't expect to reduce my sentence by more than half, and I also felt a little strange in the envy of my fellow inmates, as if I had never heard of such a thing.

Even though I've never had a point deduction for a disciplinary offense if I've behaved well, there's no shortage of people like me, but no one else has received as much of a reduction in sentence as I have. In fact, although the prison warden didn't say anything, I could still vaguely know that I was able to come out so quickly probably because of this scar on my face and my stomach, which has never healed.

Since that accident, my stomach has become very delicate, and at first I thought it was because the wound was not fully healed, but after a long time it never got better.

In the first two years of working in the smelter, although I was assigned to work in the warehouse, because I couldn't eat much, I often felt hungry when I didn't eat, but my stomach would twitch involuntarily whenever I dared to be hungry, and I almost suffered a great deal of pain.

It wasn't until later that I had to think of a way to keep some food in a plastic bag at breakfast every day, sometimes half a steamed bun, sometimes a rice ball, and pad my stomach when I felt hungry.

Even though the steamed buns are cold like stones, and the rice balls are cold like raw rice, they can keep my stomach from hurting and I can't control it.

The prison guards and correctional officers and wardens are aware of this, and this is why they will take special care of me from time to time.

After all, I was injured while working in prison, and they were also responsible for negligence, and they probably knew that they were to blame for my current illness, so they passed it

Other ways to compensate me, that's probably why I was able to come out earlier, I think!

Since no one knew when I was released from prison, no one would come to pick me up, and I walked forward step by step with my back to the prison, without feeling a trace of lightness in my heart.

Out of the road that had been built to lead to the prison, I finally saw this world that I had not seen for a long time, a few farmers were sowing seeds in the fields, and a few buffaloes were grazing with their heads bowed at the edge of the fields.

Due to the remoteness of the area, even on the main road, there were still few cars, and I waited for half an hour in front of a rusty stop sign before I finally saw a bus coming.

I waved my hand, and the bus stopped beside me, and when I got on the bus, I took out the money from an envelope given to me by the warden and bought a ticket, and sat down in the back of the car under the curious gaze of a carload of people who didn't seem to understand why someone was still taking money in an envelope, but some people had already guessed the location of the place, because they were already whispering.

The passenger next to me was probably disturbed by the shocking scar on my face, he looked at me strangely and unconsciously moved to the side, his action made me feel a little sad, probably he thought I must not be a good person!

Along the way, I was silently thinking about my own thoughts, saying that I was thinking about my thoughts, but in fact, it was more appropriate to say that I was in a daze, because my heart was more dazed.

The world doesn't seem to have changed much, it's just me......

The car stopped at the bus station in city A, and I looked around after getting off the bus, and my steps hesitated, not knowing where I should go next!

After a long time of hesitation, I decided to go to the stone flower shop first, and before I went, I bought a hat at a convenience store, not only to cover my unique hairstyle as a labor prisoner, but also to prevent the scar on the corner of my eyebrows from being too conspicuous.

It's not that I don't care about being judged against me, it's that I can't stand the consternation, curiosity and suspicion that people look at me, and it makes me feel very uncomfortable.

In the past three years, the stone flower shop seems to be doing better and better, and more than three years ago it was just a small storefront, but now it has doubled, and the adjacent store has been leased, and the middle wall has been chiseled. It was originally a small flower shop, but now it is a large-scale flower and bird shop.

In addition to flowers, there are also a variety of birds and ornamental fish. Needless to say, this is a by-product brought up by the florist, and it looks quite pleasant with the fragrance of birds and flowers.

The flower and bird shop is no longer only managed by Mother Shi, but also invites two clever little girls to help, which shows that the business in the store is quite good.

It was three or four o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived, and the shop was not very busy, and Stone's mother sat behind the counter settling the accounts, and she didn't notice me until I walked up to her.

"Sir, what do you need?" These were the first words of Mother Stone, who had already exercised the temperament of a businessman, with a smile and a kind tone between her words. But apparently she didn't recognize me in the first place.

The corners of my mouth grinned and a hint of a smile appeared, and said, "Sister-in-law Shi, is business okay?" ”

Mother Stone was slightly surprised, and her eyes widened in surprise when she looked at me more closely!

"Mr. Wei? Is it really you? She looked at me with a look of disbelief in her eyes as she turned out of the counter!

I smiled slightly: "Sister-in-law Shi, is business okay?" ”

Mother Stone's hands trembled slightly, and her eyes instantly turned red! I know that it was my thin body and face that made this kind-hearted woman feel bad, and I think she must know about me.

"Mr. Wei, you sit ......" She was a little overwhelmed in a hurry, and only after a trance did she remember to let me sit down, and then turned around in a panic to pour water for me.

She gives

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I poured a cup of tea, and then calmed down a little. She sat down on the other side of the small table, still looking at me with some unbearability.

"Mr. Wei, I've heard everything about you, it's just ...... I can't help with anything......"

"Sister-in-law Shi, don't say that! Probably no one can help me with such a thing, but fortunately, it is over! Everything has been fine in the florist all these years! I digressed.

Mother Shi sighed softly and said, "I really can't imagine that such a good person as Mr. Wei would end up like this, hey!" She sighed again and continued: "The flower shop is okay, thanks to Miss Mu has been helping us, two years ago, someone saw that our business was good and deliberately came to find fault, but fortunately, Miss Mu came forward to solve the matter for us, and then there was nothing more, and the business has been pretty good!" ”

I listened quietly, and when I heard her talk about Miss Mu, my heart couldn't help but feel all kinds of feelings! It seems that she still has a heart all these years......

"Stone should be in junior high school!" I digressed the topic again, I was afraid that Mother Shi would say something about Mu Xichun again, and I was afraid that my heart, which had only taken a few years to calm down, would make waves again.

"Yes! Stone is already in his second year of junior high school! Speaking of which, this kid will talk about you from time to time! Mr. Wei, you are resting here, and the stone will come back after self-study at night! Mother Stone said with a little expectation.

I smiled and said, "No need, I'm here to see if your life is okay, now that I know it, I'm at ease, as for the stone...... It's better for you to tell him I'm out, or don't let him see me like this! ”

Mother Stone's expression froze, and suddenly she became sad again!

"Speaking of which, we can have the life we have now, all thanks to Mr. Wei's help at the beginning, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid Shi and I would have already returned to the countryside, where would he have any qualifications to stay here and go to middle school? You are the benefactor of our family......" she gradually couldn't say any more, her face twisted and gently wiped a handful of tears.

Mother Stone's appearance made me feel a little sad, and I couldn't help but soften my heart.

"Sister-in-law Shi doesn't have to take this matter to heart, I might as well tell you now, my life experience is actually very similar to the stone, I know that I have not been easy along the way, so I don't want the stone to be like me, and I don't want you to be like my mother! I just did something insignificant......"

After a long time, Shi's mother calmed down and said to me: "Don't talk about the past, since Mr. Wei has come out, he will slowly get better in the future." Mr. Wei has helped us so much, and I have saved some money over the years, and I know that Mr. Wei is going to start all over again, and he will definitely need money, I ......"

"No need, sister-in-law Shi!" I knew what she was going to say next, so I interrupted her, interrupted her to continue.

"I'm here to come and see, I probably won't stay here, as for other aspects, I'll find a way to solve it!"

When Mother Shi heard this, her face was shocked and said, "Mr. Wei is leaving?" Miss Na Mu ......"

"Sister-in-law Shi, listen to me!" I interrupted her again.

"Don't tell me about Miss Mu, please don't tell her about my coming out, I'll leave here soon! If I have the chance in the future, I will come back to see you and the stone! ”

Mother Stone wanted to speak and stopped, her expression looked a little uneasy!

I couldn't sit still anymore, and if I sat down again, I was afraid that she would inevitably talk about things I didn't want to talk about, so I simply got up and took my leave.

Mother Stone kept sending me to the corner of the street, and she seemed to be holding back something all the way, but probably because of my emotions, she finally didn't speak.
