However, some people felt that the money the woman asked for was too much.
Who would just ask for a hundred dollars?
So, someone started to come out and smooth things over.
"Comrade, I think that even though the girl did something wrong, you can't just come up and ask for so much money, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, many people nodded in agreement. No matter who saw it, one hundred yuan was too much.
Although everyone's life is better, they should be able to come up with that much money if they tighten their belts.
The person who spoke didn't care about everyone's reaction. After he finished speaking, he immediately changed the subject.
"Comrade, you keep saying how bad your mother-in-law is, but I've been watching you for a long time. From beginning to end, apart from crying a few times, you haven't taken any action!"
"If you really cared about your mother-in-law, shouldn't you go check on her first? But why are you concerned about whether the perpetrator escaped and whether she will pay compensation?"
As soon as these last words were spoken, the surroundings fell silent in an instant.
They all looked with suspicion at the woman who was still squatting on the ground and crying, and the old man who was lying next to her and looked like he was dying.
When the woman saw everyone looking at her, she panicked and her face turned visibly red.
Then, he stammered, "You, why are you looking at me? Even if I want to take my mother-in-law to the hospital, I have to make this guy compensate me first!"
Even in this situation, she still did not forget to ask for money.
As she spoke, tears began to stream down her face. She looked so pitiful that if you didn't know her well you would think someone had bullied her.
I saw her wiping her tears and mumbling about the grievances in her heart.
"You city folks are clearly bullying us. We're country folk, visiting relatives in the county town, and we don't even have any money in our pockets. How am I supposed to take my mother-in-law to the hospital?"
Seeing the woman wiping her tears and looking aggrieved, everyone felt mixed emotions.
Even though they didn't say anything, they were still bullying such a poor person!
As a result, some people started to act bossy towards Li Mingxi.
"Young comrade, what they said is right. Look, this old man is so seriously injured. You should pay and send him to the hospital!"
"That's right, young comrade. You don't have a hundred yuan, but you must have ten or eight yuan. Don't worry about who is right or wrong. Just pay the money quickly, and we will all help to get the man to the hospital!"
I don’t know if someone started this trend, making everyone think that it was all Li Mingxi’s fault.
Otherwise, they would not have suspected the woman and the old lady just now.
It all comes down to this little girl's problem!
In an instant, everyone looked at Li Mingxi, and their eyes completely regarded her as an active enemy.
It seemed as if if Li Mingxi didn't pay, they would just go up and take it by force!
Li Mingxi could understand these people's anger, but even if they were angry, there was no need to treat her as a class enemy, right?
What's that look? Why is he looking at me like that?
For a moment, Li Mingxi was also angry. What was going on? What did they take her for?
After glancing at the people who were glaring at her, she began to speak.
"Oh, no, now I don't even know what's going on, and you want me to pay?"
When the woman heard Li Mingxi say this, she became unhappy.
"Who said you didn't understand? My mother-in-law is lying here, how can you understand?"
Hearing this, Li Mingxi smiled and glanced at the old lady lying on the ground.
"Yeah?"
The woman stiffened her neck and said nothing.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Li Mingxi stopped paying attention to her and continued with what he was saying.
"Comrades, can you open your eyes and see the current environment clearly?"
"If this woman really cared about her mother-in-law, her first reaction after being hit would have been to see how she was doing, right? But now, she's yelling and calling everyone over to watch the fun. What's going on?"
Without waiting for anyone to speak, she continued to talk to herself, "Besides, tell me, I hit this guy. Did anyone see it?"
In response to Li Mingxi's question, no one spoke out.
The woman's eyes were a little evasive. Seeing this, Li Mingxi curled the corners of his mouth slightly.
"I don't know how this person got ahead of me. Anyway, I only know that by the time I reacted, he was already lying on the ground!"
After a pause, she pointed at her car and said, "Look at my car again. If I really hit this old lady, wouldn't my wheels be deformed?"
Everyone's eyes followed Li Mingxi's finger, looked at the bicycle, and then looked at the old lady lying on the ground.
I don’t know why, but I think what this little girl said makes sense.
That’s right, if it was really hit, considering the old lady’s dying state, the car would have been deformed!
But if he hadn't been hit, why was that person lying there?
Thinking of this, everyone looked at each other, and there was nothing but confusion in each other's eyes.
Li Mingxi looked at the expressions of the crowd and knew that they believed what he said.
After making up her mind, she continued.
"But look, my car is still fine, which means it didn't even hit anyone!"
The uncle who had just spoken well of Li Mingxi agreed with what Li Mingxi said.
"That's right, what this young comrade said makes sense. If the old lady had really been hit like that, her bicycle would definitely be scrapped now!"
Every word of these words was heart-wrenching. The onlookers also had brains and would not easily believe what the woman said just because she cried so hard.
At first, they looked at the old man lying on the ground and listened to the wailing of the woman beside him, and they were immediately impressed.
I just felt that there was something wrong with the girl riding the bicycle in front of me. Otherwise, why was the woman crying so miserably, while the little girl was just standing there fine!
Comparing the two, the woman and the old woman are weaker!
People will subconsciously sympathize with the weak.
As the woman cried with tears in her eyes, everyone felt even more sympathetic towards her.
But now it’s different, listening to what the girl in front of me said.
Everyone then looked carefully at the girl riding the bicycle, and then they found that the girl in front of them was not only good-looking, but more importantly, had clear eyes.
At first glance, he's a very decent person. He wouldn't be the type to hit someone and then deny it.
On the contrary, the woman squatting on the ground wiping her tears in grievance, and the old woman lying there dying, both looked quite honest.
But it always gives people a very weird feeling.
It's just weird, especially that woman. The way she looks at people, I don't know if she's timid or scared, but she always seems sneaky.
