Vernacular Novel: Repentance

Text: For good, it will be prosperous

Around the 80s of the last century, in a mountain village somewhere in southern Jinnan, the protagonist Guo Shengnai was a restless farmer, and the story came from his thirty-six years of life experience.

Guo Sheng was kicked awake by that foot in his dazed sleep again, he quickly got up and went to the urinal, respectfully stretched out to the person's body, grabbed the urinal with both hands and stretched it out, waiting for the urine to be cleared.

He didn't dare to come out in a hurry, for fear that the unprovoked fist would smash his body again.

This is the sixth day that Guo Sheng has been planted in the cell, he feels like a year, the cell is cold and damp, not to mention, the cellmate is really unfriendly, he, the newcomer, not only has to clean up, help others carry urinals, but also be beaten if he slows down.

In the dark night, Guo Sheng poured urine and came back, and curled up on the very edge of the Chase Shop waiting for dawn. But what can I do when the morning dawns, isn't it that I am being scolded for constantly serving my fellow inmates and eating leftovers? He can't sleep, he is cold, and the quilt has long been pulled away by others.

Alas, Guo Sheng sighed deeply in his heart, and the guilt of repentance invaded his chest again, and this feeling has been invading him for several days: Thirty-six years old, I am lucky to carry it when I am young, but I am too much to carry it!

He thought: If it weren't for the fact that my legs were not fast in sprinting, if it weren't for the fact that the donkey's back was too slippery and I couldn't hold it, and they would have been able to catch up with me? I had planned for several nights before I acted, and the grass donkey, I put my torn socks on all four of its hooves, and I tied a rotten towel, and I pried open the gate of Feng Yin's compound at two o'clock in the night and stole the donkey. I ran fast with the donkey along the way, and I kept spanking the donkey's butt. Alas-Besides, it's not that I'm too greedy, I could have sold the donkey in Sanhou Village, but the half-pimpled old man didn't pay for it, I wanted to buy two hundred yuan, but he only gave one hundred and two, which was a bit worse, and the business was not done. Otherwise, the donkey is tied to someone's trough, and the donkey does not write his name, who dares to go to other people's donkey trough to recognize the donkey? Generally speaking, it is bad luck, and I was caught by Feng Yin's eldest brother who chased after me ten miles after I left......

Guo Sheng thought back to the heartwarming thing that happened to him seven days ago, and the heartwarming was dead, and even the breath that walked back and forth in the nostrils was not smooth.

Outside there was a horn calling to wake up the bed, and Guo Sheng opened his eyes to see the bright sunlight shining through the window. He quickly got up and got to work: emptying the urinal, folding the quilt, and washing his face......

Finally, the sun went down again, Guo Sheng was sore, and he lay down. How remorseful he was! Stay in this suffocating place—everyone had to stay, not a smiling face to be seen, only angry shouts one after another.

It's so hard to get in prison.

Guo Sheng wanted to sleep, but he couldn't sleep, his wife's face was shaking in his mind, and her tall belly was also shaking: You won't choose to divorce, right, I don't want you to live a good life? Alas, my mother has been dead for five years, three years ago, my father finally married me a widow of you, I know that my father wants me to live like a person, but he had a stroke half a year ago and was paralyzed, and he can send his feces and urine outside every day, and he is also dying.

From now on, no one will be able to control me.

That year, Guo Sheng thought: I stole the wheat in the warehouse that had not yet been dried, but I only stole one sack, at most only fifty or sixty catties, which was not as much as the 300 catties that Liu Manman, the director of the brigade, had identified, and I was not so bold! I used the key I had assigned myself to open the lock in the warehouse, and the door lock was intact, and I stole it cleanly, leaving no footprints, and no wheat grains fell halfway. So, the people in the county public security bureau have no problem, they can't catch the thief if they lose their food, so they can only let Feng Yin, an honest man who has just become a custodian, take responsibility and let him pay for it.

At that time, a general meeting was held to announce the results of the process, and I was also present at the meeting. You heard someone from the Public Security Bureau say: "The party's policy is not to let go of a bad person or to wronged a good person, and if we can't solve the case for the time being, it doesn't mean that we can't solve the case, and before the case is solved, we can only deal with it according to the responsibility of the accident, and Feng Yin will keep it to compensate for the loss, and temporarily withhold the family's rations for one year." ”

--I love to hear that.

But when it was the turn of the members to speak, Uncle Li Tie said unhurriedly: "The Public Security Bureau has solved the case, you broke the casserole and asked the bottom wood, how can you deduct the rations of Yinwa's family? ”

--Uncle Li Tie is right, but what is the matter with your old Li family?

It's better for my second uncle Guo Wenzi, he said loudly: "The handling of the Public Security Bureau is fair and reasonable, no one loses anyone, I swear to pass!"

But Feng Yin's daughter-in-law Xu Aihua was not convinced, she stood up angrily and spoke: "You can only deduct his own food, my baby's food is given by the state, you have no right to deduct it, the crime is only committed by him alone, and my baby and I have not committed ......"

-- This woman has a point. But ah, my arms can't twist my thighs, and no matter how noisy the members are, it won't help, and I, a hidden thief, just escaped in full view of everyone. How to pass the life of Feng Yin's family is none of my business! I have white noodles to eat, white flour steamed buns to eat, and my belly is bulging.

Thinking about it this way, Guo Sheng was excited for a while, he seemed to have forgotten his sore body and mind, and his regretful heart had no remorse.

This man is like this, and everyone will be carried away by a momentary victory.

Of course, I, Guo Sheng, are the same. It was only after that that I let go of my hands and feet, stealing and stealing.

But the matter is still unlucky with the irrelevant Uncle Li Tie.

It was a year later, and I opened the door of the storehouse with the key I had provided, stole the wool and sold it to the village, of course, without knowing it.

But Uncle Li Tie picked up two lumps of wool on the way to the neighboring village, and reported the situation to the brigade.

Liu Manman of the brigade immediately sent someone to the neighboring village sales point to ask. The consignment point said directly that I went to him to sell wool.

The evidence is overwhelming, and I was killed.

You see the security director staring at me with eyes as big as a cow: "Why did you steal it? Do you have the key?"

"Nope. ”

"Don't admit it yet, fight!" Liu Manman's wooden stick fell on me, and it hurt me to death, but I didn't want to admit it.

But I saw my mother's old tears, she knelt on the ground and begged: "You spare my baby, I will kowtow to you." ”

I was a man, and I didn't want to see my mother cry, so I confessed that I had the key, and pulled out from the little hole I had dug in the back of the kiln a large handful of keys that I had worked so hard to get - they were all born after I had obtained the real key from my father, who was the captain, and had drawn a mold on the paper. I turned it in and confessed: I stole the grain, and I stole the wool.

This happened ten years ago, and the brigade didn't denounce me and didn't send me to the shift. At that time, I had a father who was the captain, and my father helped me.

Alas--Guo Sheng sighed again: No one can care about me anymore, if I knew that this was the situation in the class room, I wouldn't have stolen this grass donkey, I really regretted dying.

On the cold dead man's chase bunk, Guo Sheng curled up, he seemed to be waiting for death.

The night was quiet again, and the inmates snored like thunder.
