Chapter 2594 I won the jackpot!
The young aunt was the first to react. She frowned and pointed at Yuan Su impatiently, "Who are you? What are you doing breaking into our house?"
Yuan Yuan ignored her and stood firmly beside Shi Li.
Shi Li took a deep breath to calm down her anger, looked at the people in the room, and said as calmly as possible: "This is my friend. I wanted to come back to see grandma before going back. My friend has a car and can take me back. Since grandma's foot is not healed, I will take grandma to the city to see a doctor."
She just wanted to reduce trouble and get her grandma away from here as soon as possible.
The old lady who had been crying silently heard this, but hurriedly waved her hands, "Li... No, no, I'm an old man, I won't bother with that anymore!"
After hearing what Shi Li said, the people in the room realized that there was indeed a car parked outside the door. They looked at each other and their attitude towards Yuan Su changed again.
"So you're friends. If you hadn't told us, we wouldn't have known about it and we almost made a fool of ourselves. Look at this!"
The young aunt's expression changed the fastest. She thought that it had only been a short time since Shi Li went out and she had already met a friend who was willing to drive her back to her hometown. She must be doing well. Since she was back, she had to scrape off some fat from her before letting her go.
As for the old lady, who is a burden, it would be best to let her take her away and never come back.
Although she reacts quickly, she doesn't think much.
At this time, the original owner's uncle, who had just gone to the toilet, also walked in from outside. He happened to hear this conversation and his attitude was unusually enthusiastic.
"Oh! It's rare for my niece to bring her friends back. Come and sit down! Your grandma's leg really hasn't healed yet. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would get worried. Please don't blame us."
As the uncle spoke, he quietly looked at what Shi Li and Yuan Su were wearing. However, Shi Li didn't want to show off this time, so he didn't wear new clothes and only wore the most ordinary clothes.
This was especially true of Yuan Su's attire.
The uncle looked at them for a long time but couldn't figure out what was going on. However, thinking of the car outside, he still greeted the two people enthusiastically.
"We just got here at noon. You must have had a hard time on the road. Come, sit down and have a meal together!"
Shi Li also realized that there must be something wrong with her uncle's abnormal attitude.
Before, when the whole family lived together, he always relied on the fact that he had a son and wanted to take more of everything. He was also never nice to the original owner. But now he seems like a different person. It would be strange if there was no trick.
"We ate on the way. Grandma's foot is more important, so we won't waste time."
Shi Li thought it would be nice to leave immediately and didn’t want to fall out here to avoid trouble.
But Shi's family refused to let them leave like this.
The uncle winked at the original owner's father, who, like his puppet, immediately said in a hoarse voice: "You left just after you came back. What nonsense! Listen to your uncle!"
"Yes, yes, now that we're back, why not stay for a night?" The original owner's mother, who had been silent, also joined in.
Shi Li turned and glanced at her.
This mother is also a typical coward. Just because she only gave birth to a daughter, she was bullied by her uncle and aunt everywhere in this family, but she dared not say a word. Instead, in order to please them, she cooperated with them to exploit the original owner.
The whole room, except for the old lady, is full of disgusting people.
Shi Li took a deep breath and looked at the group of people in the room who were eyeing him covetously. Knowing that he definitely couldn't leave now, he smiled and agreed.
She couldn't let Yuan Su face off against a room full of people on his first day at work. They were there to protect her as bodyguards, not as part of the suicide squad.
"Okay, then I'll stay for a day before leaving." Shi Li agreed, then sat next to her grandmother, looking at her with loving concern.
The old lady hadn’t washed or combed her hair in who knows how many days. Many of her hair were tangled and her face was not clean either. She was such a clean person before.
Shi Li looked at her and felt a slight soreness in her nose.
"I'll go get some water for milk to wash my face." She stood up and walked into the yard.
The people in the room looked at each other. The young aunt forced Yuan Su to talk to her, and the original owner's mother followed out silently.
There was a well in the yard. Shi Li was drawing water from the well when the original owner's mother came over.
"Xiao Li, what kind of job did you find outside?" The original owner's mother stood timidly by the side.
Shi Li fetched a bucket of water and looked back at her.
"What else can I do? Go work in a factory and do hard labor."
In her memory, when she was little, she was teased by the two children from her uncle's and aunt's families. No matter whether they pushed her down or pinched her, her mother never protected her.
On the contrary, she would only say to the original owner: "They are all your brothers and sisters, just give in to them!"
Only grandma would quietly pull her to her side when no one was paying attention, clean her wounds with loving care, and then secretly make her a bowl of sugar water.
In order to prevent others from discovering, only a little bit of sugar was put in a bowl of water, but it was the only sweetness in the original owner's memory.
