Chapter 2593 I won the jackpot!
Maybe Shi Li's gaze stayed on the scar for a little too long, and Yuan Su caught it sharply.
After she withdrew her hand, she explained: "Don't worry, Miss Shi, this injury is from the past and it won't affect your normal work."
"You misunderstood. I just saw this scar and couldn't help but think that the wound must have been very deep at the time." Shi Li spoke directly without hesitation.
Yuan Su was stunned for a moment, touched the scar casually, and then replied with a smile: "It's okay, thank you Miss Shi for your concern."
"But don't call me Miss Shi. You have to accompany me back to my hometown first. Just treat me as your friend. I don't want anyone to know that I've become a nouveau riche."
Shi Li told Yuan Su about the upcoming itinerary. Yuan Su naturally had a driver's license, so he quickly rented a car and took Shi Li back to the original owner's hometown.
When we arrived at the village, it was noon and people working in the fields had gone home one after another to eat and rest.
The village is not big, and when a strange car suddenly drives over, everyone can't help but take a few more glances.
Relying on her memory, Shi Li asked Yuan Su to drive the car to the door of the original owner's house and stop. As soon as she turned off the engine and got out of the car, she heard her aunt's sharp scolding coming from the house.
"You old fool, I'm lucky enough to give you a bite of food, but you dared to drop it on the ground. Eat it if you want!"
The original owner's grandfather died early, and the only one who could be called "old" in the family was the original owner's grandmother. Shi Li was furious when he heard this, and he glanced at Yuan Su and strode in.
The scene she saw when she stepped into the house made her heart sink.
Her aunt kept saying that grandma was well, but what she saw was a skinny old lady lying in a corner of the kang with difficulty, holding an empty bowl in her trembling hands.
There were still a few grains of rice left in the bowl, but the porridge was all over the clothes on the chest.
My aunt was standing by the kang, her outstretched index finger almost poking the old lady's face.
"Aunt, what are you doing!" Shi Li frowned and lowered her voice angrily.
My aunt was talking excitedly when she suddenly heard someone coming behind her. She was startled and turned around to see that it was Shi Li. An expression of disgust appeared on her sour face.
"Why is Xiaoli back? It's not time to pay salaries yet!"
Shi Li didn't want to pay attention to her, so she walked to the old lady and took the bowl from her hand, "Grandma, I'm back."
The old lady looked at Shi Li and opened her mouth, but in the end no word came out.
Shi Li's mind was filled with memories of her grandmother taking care of the original owner. She couldn't help but choke up as she spoke, "Grandma, why have you lost so much weight? Is your foot healed?"
"What do you mean? How can I treat her badly?" The old lady didn't say anything, but the young aunt was unhappy and pointed at Shi Li and jumped up and down.
At this time, other people in the family who had been working in the fields also came back one after another.
Including the original owner’s parents, and the original owner’s uncle.
When they saw Shi Li coming back, everyone was stunned.
"Why did you come back? The round-trip fare is free!" The original owner's father put the hoe in the corner and questioned in a rough voice.
Shi Li looked back at him and didn't answer. Instead, she reached out and lifted the tattered thin blanket covering the old lady's legs.
An indescribable smell came. The old lady's sprained foot had not healed at all. It was still swollen, which was scary to look at.
Before the old lady was injured, she could still busy herself around the house. But now she can’t do anything, so she is disliked by her young daughter-in-law.
Both sons were around, but neither of them was willing to say a word for their mother, and they just let their aunt treat the old lady harshly and even scold her.
"Xiao Li has only been in the big city for a few days, and after coming back she doesn't even want to talk to us country people, haha!" The young aunt was still trying her best to add fuel to the fire.
The original owner's father's face looked even uglier. He took a step forward and stretched out his hand to pull Shi Li up.
"I'm talking to you!"
He only touched Shi Li once, and was then pushed away by Yuan Su nonchalantly.
At this time, the Shi family discovered that there was a stranger present.
