Generally speaking, Li Chengze was extremely unlucky in the first half of his life.
Li Chengze waved his hands and smiled with some creases at the end of his eyes, adding a touch of vicissitudes to this man who was obviously not yet thirty years old: "Don't say that, I was almost desperate at that time. If it weren't for my little brother's words, I would have been there for about the first time."
I can't even make it through the night. If I really let go, what will happen to my son and my old mother? Sigh... Now that I think about it, I'm really scared."
As he said that, he brought out a bowl of porridge made from stick noodles. The porridge was still steaming and handed it to Hua Xiaogu's hand. Hua Xiaogu brought the bowl of porridge in through the gap in the prison railing and drank it immediately.
A big mouthful.
"There are also these buns and steamed buns, keep them here for you to eat. My mother pickled the side dishes herself, and they are quite delicious." Li Chengze took out the cloth bag from the food box and handed it to Hua Xiaogu.
"Thank you, Brother Li." Hua Xiaogu took the food in and put it in his arms.
The two talked for a while, until they heard the sound of keys on the prison officer's belt not far away, and then they stopped talking.
"Hey, are you two talking to each other again? It's very difficult for us as guards if you are like this..." The prison guard said as he walked this way: "Is he the person you are looking for?"
Hua Xiaogu heard the prison officer turn around and say something to someone, then he raised his head and looked in that direction.
"Sister Baitao? Yong'an!" Hua Xiaogu's eyes suddenly widened, and a smile suddenly bloomed on his face.
Sure enough, what gradually came from the darkness were Baitao, who had lost a lot of weight, and Yongan, who looked serious.
Yong'an bowed to the prison officer, then took out some broken silver from his arms and handed it to the prison officer: "Thank you for your guidance, brother. This is my brother."
The prison guard weighed the money in his hand, then took two steps forward and opened the prison door.
"Your family arrived late, and everyone around him has almost gone out. You made him suffer a lot of time in jail for nothing." The prison guard said with a half-smile.
Baitao walked in hurriedly, looked Hua Xiaogu up and down, and then tears fell down: "Why are you so thin!"
Hua Xiaogu was afraid that Baitao would show off and let others see that she was a woman, so she quickly patted Baitao on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's okay."
She turned back and bowed deeply towards Li Chengze: "Brother Li, it seems that I can go out today. Next time, I will definitely bring good wine and meat and come to the door to say thank you."
Li Chengze also looked very happy and waved his hand: "If you are not busy, your family is getting together, so I will leave first. If we are destined, we will meet each other."
After that, Li Chengze took the food box and walked out slowly. When he came to his senses, Hua Xiaogu realized that Li Chengze had forgotten to take away the steamed buns and side dishes in his hand.
"Why are you still lingering? You haven't stayed enough?" the prison guard seemed a little impatient and stood aside and said.
Hua Xiaogu quickly took the cloth bag in his hand and walked towards the man who had been lying silently.
"I'm leaving today. You can keep the water and these things over there to eat. Don't give up. No one knows what will happen in the future!" After saying that, Hua Xiaogu put down the cloth bag in his hand.
He stood beside the man, then stood up and walked out with Baitao Yongan.
The dirty, disheveled man lying facing the wall did not move for a long time after hearing these words. It was not until the cell became silent again that he turned his face and his eyes fell on the bag of food.
