Chapter 90



"A30097, be a good man after you come out, don't go in again."


The sunlight outside the prison looked extremely dazzling, Su Aobai covered his eyes with one hand, and took away the personal belongings he had stored before going to jail from the prison guard with the other hand, listen to his true teachings.


This time his identity was rather special.


A prisoner who surrendered after the murder and was sentenced to 12 years in prison. This is his ninth year in prison. Since he performed well in prison this year, he was given plenty of opportunities to reduce his sentence and was released from a three-year prison in the forward.


It was possible that the emotions of the original owner were too strong, causing Su Aobai to look at everything around him very strangely.With the rapid development of society, nine years of imprisonment was enough to create a distance between him and the world.


He stepped forward cautiously and walked out from the shadows of the prison wall. The sun shone on his body warmly. He slowly lowered the hand that covered his eyes. The temperature of the sun finally made her feel comfortable. .


There was a bus stop over a hundred meters from the prison, and he walked slowly past it, thinking about his future plans.


He has a daughter!


At the same time, he had no money!


*****


"Yixing, your father will pick you up soon, are you happy?"


At Ai Xin Orphanage, an old man with a friendly face slightly bowed, touching the head of a little girl.


This was a very pretty little girl with white skin, loosely unraveled black hair behind her, and a pair of willow leaf eyebrows curled in her almond-shaped eyes. Like a living doll, the snow-white skin coated by the half-worn red corduroy dress on her body was also slightly reddish.


"Yixing, whatever happens, it's your father..."


Seeing the silence of the little girl, the dean's grandmother could only sigh, everything was wrong.


This little girl was named Su Yixing. Unlike many children who had no relatives willing to take care of them or were abandoned by their parents due to the death of their parents, Su Yixing's father was still alive and had never left him. Ma left this the son of the only person she could trust, the director of Ai Xin Orphanage.


Since Su Yixing's parents were once children of this orphanage, both of them were raised under the supervision of the director.


His father, Su Aobai, lost his parents when he was five years old, and his relatives were unwilling to support him, so they pushed him like kicking a ball.Finally, a relative threw him into the gate of the orphanage. Rooted school.


His mother was thrown into the gate of the orphanage soon after he was born. Girls used to be abandoned at that time. The headmaster brought her in and named the child Ji Xing. Ji is the name of the principal. Most of the abandoned babies took the dean's surname.


On the day Su Aobai was sent to the orphanage, Ji Xing happened to be returned by the family that adopted him, because the couple who had been unable to conceive a child had become pregnant for a long time, and returning the adopted child was not in obedience to formality, but Who made people harden their hearts and flee after throwing the child in the gate of the orphanage?The headmaster knew that if Ji Xing was sent to the couple again under such circumstances, he would not be able to live a good life, so he was busy After being busy at work, he would not be able to live a good life, ji Xing's household registration was transferred to the orphanage's collective household registration book.


On the day Su Aobai came, the little girl who was left crying so much that she asked the little boy who was still a little sad to patronize and comfort her. Maybe fate like this. In the days that followed, the two children were inseparable and became close friends.


It has become commonplace for two children who are so close to falling in love at such a young and foolish age.


The economic situation of Yixing Orphanage is not good, every child who reaches the age of 16 years must be expelled from the orphanage, he said, and compulsory education provided by the state is only maintained until they graduate from junior high school.


Su Aobai was half a year older than Ji Xing, and she left the orphanage half a year earlier. He worked for others everywhere, and saved enough money to rent a small house. On the day Ji Xing left the orphanage at the age of sixteen, he rode a used bicycle to He picked her up and moved into their temporary home.


Ji Xing's grades were excellent, so Su Aobai started working part-time to earn money after graduating Junior High. He wanted to save up for Ji Xing's education, and also save up to buy a real house for the two of them in this city.


Ji Xing was also working for this purpose. He wanted to get accepted into the best university, earn a lot of money, and buy a bigger house. Back then, Su Aobai did not need to work hard and tired at the construction site She could support both of them, and when they had a baby, Su Aobai would take care of her baby at home.


This is the wonderful hope of two ignorant young people for the future.


Regarding the relationship of these two children, Dean Ji was happy to see it work out, though, because he can see that this is not a silly joke of some foolish children.The relationship they have built since childhood has reached a level where no third person can intervene. , He had never felt such strong and hot emotions.


Dean Ji felt their future would be as good as they expected.


But everything suddenly ended when the two children were seventeen years old.


Ji Xing is pregnant, and when her two children find her in fear and panic, Ji Xing is already five months pregnant and unable to have an abortion, but must induce labor, ji Xing's physique, once labor-induced, would have serious problems living in danger.


Dean Ji scolded Su Aobai for not knowing anything. He clearly told her that before Ji Xing was accepted into university, he should not do any borderline-breaking things. Relationships are maintained at the limit of innocence.


But he was still crossing the line, and the two foolish and foolish children did not think of coming to him, the mother dean, until their stomachs were so big that they could not hide it. But a few months before, they wouldn't have had any major problems.


But now, for the sake of Ji Xing's health, she had no choice but to give birth to the child.Dean Ji arranged for Ji Xing to suspend the school, saying, and occasionally go to their rented house to teach them preventive measures during pregnancy .


Su Aobai had always studied seriously, but Ji Xing, as a mother, was getting worse.


Sometimes crying and sometimes laughing, Dean Ji suspected that he was suffering from postpartum depression, and took him to a psychiatrist, but he still managed the orphanage, with many children waiting for him to be cared for, impossible to maintain. He took Ji Xing's heart, so most of the time, he could only call Su Aobai to tell Su Aobai what to do and how to do it.


She was conceived in October, and when she gave birth, an accident occurred.


Ji Xing suffers from eclampsia during childbirth, the child is saved, but the adults do not save him.


Until now, Dean Ji still remembered the scene of Su Aobai screaming and crying like crazy outside the delivery room. She continued to grab her hair and banged hard against the corridor wall until Ji Xing's body came out of the delivery room. After being pushed out, he suddenly became quiet.


During the period before the cremation of the corpse, he rarely ate or drank, and then used all his savings and borrowed some money from a friend to buy a nice grave for Ji Xing Sitting in the grave every day, talking to Ji Xing's photo on the tombstone.


He did not care about the daughter Ji Xing had born, but Dean Ji could not take it anymore, he took the little baby girl to the cemetery and put the child in his arms.


"Look at your daughter with Ji Xing. He was very similar to Ji Xing. She doesn't have a mother anymore. Do you want him to have no father?"


That's what he was scolding at the time.


The little baby girl in her cradle also seemed to feel a tense atmosphere, and cried sobbing, unfortunately she was not absorbed well in the womb of her mother, she was small and thin, she was so, even crying softly while waving her two tiny hands that she held onto Aobai's collar and refused to let go, she probably took a sense of security from him.


The little baby girl, who was only a few days away from the full moon, was immature, but it was already seen that her facial features were very similar to her mother Ji Xing, she was like Ji Xing when she was a child, and he even cried very similarly, frowning, nose twitching.


The originally indifferent eyes of Su Aobai gradually softened.


"Do you remember what Ji Xing said earlier? She said that if she had children, she would definitely be the best and best mother in the world. This is his wish. If he's still alive, he doesn't want to see you at all This is the child he saved with his life!"


Most of the children in the orphanage were abandoned by their parents, as well as Ji Xing, he hated his irresponsible parents, so if talking about his dreams, it would be a good idea, besides being with Su Aobai forever, there was also Being a great mother.


She had said many times that if she had a daughter, she would definitely pamper her as a cute little princess.


Seeing the smiling face on the tombstone, Dean Ji also cried, so young, he left, and even took half of Su Aobai's life.


It might be Dean Ji's words touching her, or perhaps the little baby girl's cry, and her little hand gripping tightly against her collar that made her realize her responsibility, so Su Aobai spoke.


"Yixing, from now on this child will be called Yixing."


This was the first sentence that Su Aobai had spoken to the outside world after Ji Xing was buried.


Dean Ji closed his mouth and nodded again and again, the tears in his eyes getting louder.


From that day on, Su Aobai looked very cheerful, she took the child from Dean Ji and brought him back to the rental house where she and Ji Xing lived before.


Being raised in an orphanage, she had to help take care of her younger siblings since she was a child.Caring for a newborn baby was not a difficult thing for Su Aobai. He can skillfully make milk powder for the child, change his diaper, shower and shampoo skillfully.


But he still had to work to earn money, he owed a sum of money to buy Ji Xing's funeral before, and now the child's expenses, rent and living expenses were also a considerable sum.


She had already troubled the dean's mother a lot before, but this time, Su Aobai entrusted the child to the hostess who lived across the door and rented the house to her, but the other party could only help him look after the child during In the years when he earned 800 yuan a month, Su Aobai had an additional 500 yuan for the treatment costs.


During the day, she grits her teeth at the construction site and does the most grueling and most difficult work At night, when she returns home to pick up the child of the homeowner's old woman, who is, he had to prepare his own dinner.


In the scorching summer, holding a crying baby in one hand and swinging a shovel in the other, this is his life.


When Dean Ji rarely had time and came to see him and his son with a box of milk and fruits, all he saw was a dark-skinned, beard-faced, unkempt-looking young man.


His eyes were dark, he worked during the day, and he had to wake up in the middle of the night to feed his son several times.Su Aobai's physical strength and energy had been exhausted to its limit.


On the contrary, the little girl baby who was a little thin at birth was now raised to be fat and white, and she laughed at everyone, very funny.


To that end, the dean could only sigh inwardly, if it were not for the cuckoo teenagers and tasting forbidden fruit, if they had performed the correct anti-pregnancy measures, he said, and giving birth to such a daughter at that time.the right age with a fairly healthy body, they should have a happy family.


There was not much she could do, she just hoped the child she once raised would live a good life with this emotional meal.


It has been two months since I saw Su Aobai again.


He brought Yixing to the orphanage, knelt on the ground and banged his head several times, begged him to take care of the child, and before he could ask the reason, he said, he left his daughter and many daily necessities belonged to Yixing and left.


Dean Ji held the crying baby girl. He did not know that Su Aobai had killed someone until the police came to investigate the next day. After leaving the orphanage yesterday, he ran to the police station to surrender.


In his confession, he and the victim were involved in a quarrel in the street because of some trivial things, then they fought, because they could not be angry for a while, he stabbed him to death with a box knife on his body. .


Surveillance in the distance also captured the scene at the time, which was two people accidentally colliding while walking down the street, and then there seemed to be a verbal disagreement because of this Bai Cai took out a utility knife from his hand. Pocket and stabbed him several times, causing his death.


Upon investigation, the two had not known each other before, so the possibility of premeditated murder was ruled out.


In addition, he surrendered and pleaded guilty with a good attitude, so he was eventually sentenced to 12 years in prison.


When Dean Ji heard the news, he was angry and anxious, when he visited the prison, he scolded him through the glass.


This was the child he had raised with his own hands, he was so reasonable and obedient when he was a child, why he did so many stupid things in a row after leaving the orphanage.


Impulse! When he did, didn't he think that he still had a daughter to take care of?


However, he also stubbornly refused to say a word. Out of anger, Dean Ji never invited Yi Xing to visit him in prison in the next few years. Even he seemed to have forgotten that he was in prison. Child, never visited him again.


Seeing the little girl's indifferent expression now, Dean Ji suddenly regretted it.


"Su Aobai performed well in prison and got a chance to reduce his sentence. Dean Ji got word that he was released from prison today. Now that he was back, Yixing would naturally be brought back by him to live together."


But the father and daughter did not get along during these nine years, Yi Xing also heard too many rumors because she is the daughter of a murderer, can you live a good life?


"Grandmother, can I continue to be by your side?"


Su Yixing raised his head and looked at the dean's grandmother seriously.


He had been living in an orphanage ever since he remembered, and he had no hope for that nominal father, and even felt that his existence was some kind of problem.


Dean Ji opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, then fell silent.


That was true, even if Su Aobai was released from prison, how could she support herself and her children.


The man he killed was a bachelor, with no wife and children, and his only relative was his mother who remarried in his early years. The other party's mother had remarried and had another child. After learning that he was killed, he came here only for compensation. Back to the journey.


However, upon learning that Su Aobai was an orphan, with only two hundred dollars on her body, and unable to pay any compensation at all, the woman slapped her ass and fled, leaving her with a, didn't even want to deal with his son's funeral.


Su Aobai was really poor. When he was in prison, he had not paid off the money he had borrowed from others to buy Ji Xing's grave. Once he is in prison, the rented house will not be renewed after its expiry. , emptied by the owner, and scanty items can be used also taken to pay off the debt.


Dean Ji simply took back some of his old clothes and his son, as well as a child's daily milk bottle and half-full can of powdered milk.


Now that he is out of prison, it can be said that he has no money, and he must face a strange world nine years later.


She can't even take good care of herself now, can she take care of one more child?


Dean Ji looked at the little girl and hesitated.


The repeated accident made him doubt the child he had raised, and in the past nine years, he had poured out a lot of affection on this little girl, Yi Xing, and the balance in her heart definitely led to Su Yi Xing.


Let's see again, give her time, if she doesn't have enough ability to take care of herself and her child, then leave Yixing by her side.


Dean Ji touched the little girl's head, his demeanor softened.


*****


When he left the prison, Su Aobai only brought 200 yuan, which was given to him by an old prison guard in charge of their area when he saw his compassion.


The real prison is not the same as everyone imagined, and it is also a place where money is spent.


In general, people living in prisons ask their family members outside to transfer one or two thousand yuan to a designated account each month, and this money can improve their living conditions in prison.


The state only guarantees basic food and clothing for prisoners after they are in the washcloth, such as soap, etc., which need to be purchased at the prison commissioner at their own expense. some of the daily necessities and snacks in the market are also available there, Convicts who can relatively afford to buy instant noodles, bread and drinks in the supermarket.


Except for a few criminals who are prohibited from high consumption due to property economic crimes, the consumption rate of other inmates depends entirely on the money sent by his family.


Yuanshen did not even have any relatives to visit her, let alone send her money.


Therefore, during these nine years, all of his additional spending came from the subsidies he received after participating in labor reform during his sentence, he said, but the money was just enough for him to buy necessities such as toothpaste and toothbrushes at the supermarket.


The inmates in the same room as him and the prison guard in charge of guarding them all knew about the situation. At first, everyone knew that he entered impulsively, and they were all prejudiced against him, but over time we hung out for a long time, he said, his honest and quiet personality gradually changed everyone's opinion of him.


When he was about to be released from prison, some of the prison guards collected two hundred yuan for him, at least allowing him to have enough money to take the car home and save up before he got a job. eat more than a dozen meals It's time to eat, of course the full meal here refers to steamed bread and water.


In order to keep his emotions in check, the other party simply said that it was lent to him, but in their hearts, they did not expect the money to be returned at all. As long as he could be honest and never enter again, the prison guard would be satisfied.


There was a small amount in two hundred dollars, and Su Aobai used two dollars to take a bus to the city.


He was the only passenger at the departure station to be released after serving his sentence today, taking nearly 15 minutes to get out of the station before arriving at the next station, and some passengers got on the train.


They all knew that the starting point was the prison, and seeing Su Aobai's worn clothes and green skin on his head, they immediately guessed that this was the prisoner who had just been released.


Some people just glanced at him, then immediately looked away, then pushed each other to sit at the furthest position from him.


Even though all who came out of prison were people who had served their sentences and paid the price for their mistakes, the public would still be prejudiced against them.


Can you start a new life after admitting your mistakes and accepting punishment?


This is an unresolved question so far.


Some people think that criminals should be given a chance, as long as he is truly converted, but more people think that as long as he makes a mistake, he should be nailed to the stake of shame for the rest of his life.


In many cases, Su Aobai's position leaned towards the latter, and he felt this was also one of the prices to be paid for making a mistake.


So he looked at the people who thought of him as poison, and his heart calmed down.


He ransacked the plastic bags provided by the prison and found the cell phone he had stored before he went to jail before he went to jail, it was a very cheap used phone that had been removed by the community, not to mention the rapid development of technology nine years later.


This stupid phone charging mode is still very old fashioned by dismantling the battery board, there are two battery boards that are alternately replaced and charged with a universal charger.


Nine years have passed, and the cell phone has been turned off and off, if it has not been used for a long time, it may already be a brick.


Su Aobai put his phone back in a plastic bag. In addition to this, there is also an old, cracked and inferior belt inside the plastic bag. As for the suit he wore before he was imprisoned, it was now on him.


He was reluctant to throw away these two trash-like objects.


After tidying up the items, Su Aobai walked towards the driver, who gave him a wary look.


"Master, may I ask which bus number should I transfer to Peacock Hill Cemetery?"


"Down at Huanan Middle Road Station, move to No. 505 to Xincun Xingzhu Station, then move to Huancheng Line 9, and the bus will go to Kongqueshan Cemetery."


Seeing his gentle demeanor, the driver slowly lowered his vigilance.


After asking about his route, Su Aobai hugged his bag again and sat back down to his original seat.


On his first day out of prison, he just wanted to see her.
