Chapter 2595 I won the jackpot!
"Ah, it's good to work in a factory. The factory will definitely provide food and accommodation, right?" The original owner's mother had no sense at all and continued to ask Shi Li questions.
Shi Li picked up the basin of water and looked at her sideways, feeling sad and pitiful.
"There's no food or housing provided. There are too many people looking for jobs in the city. I haven't even been to school for a few years, and it's good enough that they hired me. I almost starved to death in the first few days after I arrived in the city!"
After saying that, he walked into the house without looking back.
The original owner's mother chased after him, shouting, "How could that be possible? You must be lying to me. I heard from my neighbor that he could earn several thousand a month working in the city!"
Shi Li didn't want to pay any more attention to her, so she went into the house with the basin of water. She looked around but couldn't find the old lady's towel, so she had to ask her aunt.
The young aunt had been trying to get some information from Yuan Su, but she didn't get any valuable information. She pointed to the yard impatiently and said, "It's right there."
Following her direction, Shi Li finally saw a towel, but it was dirty and placed directly next to the pigpen.
She was so angry that her body was shaking.
"Li, grandma, I'm okay, it's okay..." The old lady sensed Shi Li's anger and quickly pulled her sleeve.
Shi Li came back to her senses, pursed her lips and silently washed the old lady's face with water, then simply used her sleeve as a towel to wipe the water off her face.
Everyone in the room was watching her movements, and no one noticed.
"If you guys have eaten, then we'll eat first. We're exhausted from working all morning!"
When the uncle saw Shi Li coming back, he didn't show any expression and even came back empty-handed. Now his face looked a little unhappy, so he simply sat down and started eating.
Others also sat down nearby.
The table was set on the big kang, with steamed buns and a large pot of stew, some pork in it. They ate with relish, but it was as if they didn't see the old lady.
"What did my grandma eat?" Shi Li was no longer angry at this time. Instead, she was extremely calm and composed, just looking at them steadily.
Everyone else seemed not to have heard it, only the aunt waved her hand casually, "She's not hungry, she just finished eating."
Have you finished eating just now?
Are you referring to the bowl of porridge that spilled all over your body?
Shi Li restrained herself and looked at the old lady who was still shaking her head at her. She just patted the old lady's hand as a comfort, and then without hesitation, poured the basin of water she had just used to wash the old lady's face onto the dining table.
"oops!"
"Are you crazy?"
The whole table of food was flooded, and the diners jumped up and shouted.
The original owner's father was so angry that he wanted to hit someone again, but was stopped by Yuan Su. He could only shout on the spot: "Are you going to rebel?"
"Xiao Li, what are you doing? It's not easy for us to get a meal. You can't become capable outside and then come home to vent your anger!" The young aunt looked at the food that had not been eaten for two bites with heartache and frowned innocently.
The uncle looked around and finally picked up the big teapot next to him and gestured threateningly, "You little bastard! Are you crazy?"
"You are abusing your own mother like this, you are definitely not afraid that the whole village will know."
Shi Li stood up fearlessly and looked at everyone in the room.
They were sure that the old lady was soft-hearted and would not let the family's disgrace be made public, so they treated her as a burden and humiliated her as much as they could.
Everyone who looked at Shi Li was stunned for a moment.
No matter what they did, they still had to save face in public. They just said that their mother had a bad leg and had to stay in the house. No one knew what kind of abuse the old lady suffered at home.
The kind-hearted old lady still tried to stop Shi Li, "Li, don't..."
"I don't want to talk to you about anything else. I'll take the milk away, and you don't have to take care of it anymore!"
Shi Li felt that she would suffocate if she stayed here for another minute.
"That won't do!" The uncle was the first to object, stiffening his neck and glaring at Shi Li, "If you take the old lady away so casually, how will the villagers look at us!"
He actually knew that people's words were scary. Shi Li turned her gaze to him.
Over the years, he and his aunt have had the final say on all matters big and small in this family. Shi Li also knows that the original owner's parents actually didn't have any say at all.
"Tell me, what do you want?" She knew that her uncle said this not for the sake of outsiders' opinions, but for conditions.
The uncle glanced at her and Yuan Su, "You have to leave us a guarantee! You have to promise that you took the old lady away to treat her leg, and you will send her back after she is cured!"
Shi Li was almost amused by this shameless statement. It sounded so high-sounding, but it was actually just for money.
This scumbag who ignores and even abuses his own mother, but turns around and asks his own niece for money, speaks so confidently.
"How much money do you want? I haven't received my first month's salary yet."
Shi Li's face darkened. The last thing she lacked now was money, but she felt it was a waste to give even a dime to such a person.
"Three...five thousand!" My uncle stretched out his hand and gestured.
