Others chimed in, "That's right, that old lady looked so pitiful. It would have been fine if you had just bumped into her, but now you're bullying her. Are you even human?"
Li Mingxi didn't know what to say. She had no idea about the specific situation and was just talking nonsense.
Faced with such accusations, she simply chose to ignore them and let these people do whatever they want.
Anyway, this group of people just stand on the highest moral point and accuse others all day long.
I don't care what the truth is.
Thinking of this, Li Mingxi simply spread his hands and spoke indifferently.
"Okay, okay, this is all my fault. So what do you think we should do?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who were originally chatting happily immediately turned into turtles.
When Li Mingxi saw this situation, he was speechless and spoke directly.
"Look, no matter what I say, you all say I'm irresponsible. Now I'm asking you questions, and you're silent again. So what do you want me to do? This is too difficult!"
Having said that, Li Mingxi went to look at the old lady who was still sitting on the ground.
"Old lady, come here, tell me what you want me to do. I just told you to go to the hospital, but you don't want to. Then you can come up with a solution. Even if you don't go to the hospital, you can't just sit here. People who don't know will think something happened!"
Li Mingxi saw the old lady who was sitting there calmly, after she said this.
While he was shouting "ouch, ouch", his eyes were rolling around rapidly.
Just when Li Mingxi thought she would remain silent like before, this person spoke.
"I'm not going to the hospital. My leg is broken, but I'm not going to die. Why would I go to the hospital? Besides, even if I go to the hospital, there's no one to take care of me. So what's the point of going?"
Having said this, she even deliberately pulled at her inner clothes.
"Look at what I'm wearing. If I go to the hospital, I might starve to death and no one would know. And if you hit me, what if I can't take care of myself in the future and there's no one at home to take care of me, what are you going to do then?"
After hearing her say this, Li Mingxi immediately understood that the old lady had other ideas, so she didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.
"Then tell me, after all that, what exactly do you want me to do?"
Then, Li Mingxi heard the old lady speak earnestly, "Little girl, it's not that I want to take advantage of you. I'm an old widower who could take care of myself. But you hit me like that. If I don't take good care of my legs, I'll definitely be bedridden when I get older!"
Li Mingxi listened to her talk for such a long time, but still didn't understand what the old lady's purpose was in saying so much.
Just as she was about to ask, she heard the old lady speak.
"If you have a conscience and want to take responsibility and let me, an old lady, recover, you should just find someone to take care of me for a while!"
When Li Mingxi heard her request, he subconsciously wanted to refuse.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to take responsibility, but the old lady’s injury wasn’t that serious, and she didn’t fall so hard that she couldn’t get up.
Besides, this person seems to be in good health and obviously doesn't need to be taken care of.
Li Mingxi felt that the old lady's purpose was to say this, and then, seeing that he was not satisfied, she would take the opportunity to ask for more money.
In that case, let’s do it!
But at this moment, the old lady spoke again.
"But that would be much more troublesome!"
She paused for a moment before continuing, "I don't think your family lives in a county town. If you hire someone to take care of me, it's going to cost a lot of money. So I was thinking, can I just go home with you and live there? I'll take good care of you, and maybe you'll be fine in no time!"
"This way, I can recover and avoid causing trouble to your family. What do you think?"
Li Mingxi opened her mouth in shock after hearing her words. She really couldn't understand what was going on in this old lady's mind that she wanted to go to her house.
Even if she hit someone, she doesn't have to take the person back home to take care of him!
What will happen then? If anything goes wrong, it will be their fault.
Maybe a lot of trouble will arise because of this.
Moreover, this old lady is not a relative of their family. Who knows if bringing such a person home would be like inviting a wolf into the house.
Therefore, Li Mingxi refused without thinking.
"No, old lady, everything else is fine, even if you want money, that's fine, but I really can't take you home!"
"Not only do I have no say in our family, but we have no relatives. If I take you to my house, what will happen? I don't know what kind of gossip will spread in the village!"
When the old lady heard that she couldn’t go to Li Mingxi’s house, she became anxious.
"Why can't I just go to your house? I'm alone, and now my leg is injured by you. Can I just go to the hospital?"
"If it gets worse or relapses, who will I turn to? Who will be responsible for me?"
"Besides, what you said is very good. What if they send me to the hospital and then they don't care about me anymore? What should I do then?"
After hearing this, the people around also thought it made sense and agreed.
"That's right, little girl. The old lady is all alone. You can't leave her home alone. That's not good, right?"
Li Mingxi felt that this person was just talking without thinking. He said he would let the old lady live in his house and try to see if she was willing!
Seeing that Li Mingxi didn't say anything, the old lady started to cry out again.
Seeing her like this, Li Mingxi felt very annoyed and spoke directly.
"You don't have to yell anymore. No matter what, I absolutely cannot take you to my house. You can choose money or I can take you to the hospital for treatment. Choose one of these two options!"
After saying this, Li Mingxi stared at the old lady sitting there.
The onlookers wanted to say something, but were frightened by Li Mingxi's eyes.
"I won't choose, and I won't go to the hospital. I'm an old lady with no one to rely on. If you just leave me in the hospital and leave me there, who will I turn to for justice?"
Li Mingxi really didn't expect that even after he said this, the old lady would still be like this.
She also couldn't understand why this person insisted on following her home?
No wonder the old lady thought she could live a good life by following me, but the way she was dressed today didn't look like she was very rich.
Because neither of them was willing to take a step back, the situation was deadlocked for a moment.
