That saved her from falling.
When the old lady turned around and saw that it was her, she not only did not let go of Xia Yunxi's hand, but instead held Xia Yunxi's arm and held her tightly with her fingers.
The heavy force seemed to be holding back something. Xia Yunxi felt the pain, but she didn't say anything.
Instead, he raised his head and looked at the man, woman, and little girl standing outside the door.
Xia Yunxi was not an old lady and did not have the ties of family and blood, so she could clearly see the disgust and disdain deep in their eyes.
Xia Yunxi was stunned for a moment, then looked carefully and found that she was not mistaken.
It is indeed disgust.
She was a little confused. If he disliked this place, why did he come here?
Xia Yunxi knew the inside story about Mr. Li's deeds, otherwise she would not have sent her own child to be taught by the old man.
However, even she, an outsider, knew that the old man was wrongly accused. But as his children, were they more convinced than outsiders that the sensational news at the time was really as reported by the media?
"I'm so cruel, Li Haiting, check your conscience. Have your father and I ever done anything to offend you? Ha, what a joke. After raising a daughter and a son for more than 20 years, your father and I raised ungrateful people like you?
You don't know how outsiders misunderstand you and frame you.
But when outsiders criticize your father, what do you do? He is the father you have respected since childhood, the father who taught you, but your behavior is more heartbreaking than scraping bones and tearing out your heart.
Go away, you are not welcome here."
"Mom, wake up. Look at yourself now. Without me and my brother, even if you want to drink a sip of water, no one can bring it to your bed." Li Haiting didn't think her words hurt her mother much.
I just feel that my mother is too strong and doesn't understand her children's efforts at all.
And they have been unilaterally dissolving the relationship...
"Go away, you are not welcome here." The old lady was shaking with anger. If Xia Yunxi had not been supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground.
But Li Haiting didn't notice the old lady's embarrassment. Instead, she kept saying, "Leave? So, Mom, you don't even recognize me and my brother now?"
"Yes, rather than recognizing ungrateful people like you and being pissed off by you, it's better to just pretend I don't have any children." The old lady said viciously.
A trace of hurt flashed across Li Haiting's face. She suddenly pointed at Xia Yunxi and asked, "Who is she? Why, are you hiring a nanny now so you don't have to rely on me and my brother anymore?"
"Yes, I've already repaid you for your kindness. I didn't expect you to repay me. Now get out of here immediately, just like the past five years. We'll go our separate ways and have nothing to do with each other anymore."
"Mom, I brought my husband and children to visit you out of kindness, but you treat me like this? I don't think I've done enough for you and my dad. Do you know how much criticism my brother and I have endured over the years for the mess my dad left behind?"
"Oh, she does nothing but criticize you two every day?" The old lady knew better than anyone what kind of people her own children were.
Immediately responded rudely.
Li Haiting's expression froze. "But my brother and I were the ones who bore the brunt of that mess."
"Why, seeing that the old man and I are still useful, what do you want to squeeze out of us?" The old lady directly exposed him.
Li Haiting asked, "What do you mean by exploitation? You and my dad have come to this point, what else do you have left?"
"I just saw you and my dad, how pitiful we are, living in this remote place, with no heating in the winter... I felt so bad, so I came to see you.
But you blame me like this, Mom, you are my mom, how can you think of us like this?"
The old lady no longer wanted to talk. She supported herself with Xia Yunxi's arm, stood up straight, and wanted to go forward and close the gate.
But Li Haiting, seeing that the old lady had stopped blaming her, slowed down her tone and said, "You and my dad have such a hard life. I just thought, after all, you are our parents. Can my brother and I just watch you and my dad suffer like this?"
The old lady sneered, not believing that her daughter could be so kind.
Some things can be seen from the attitude of the person speaking just now.
"It just so happens that my eldest brother's company is planning a project recently, to shoot a commercial for a product. I thought, no one is more suitable than my dad, so I came here, no matter what, to use my dad's identity to get this commercial.
In the end, the company will be able to pay you some money. This way, your life won't be too tight, and my brother and I can rest assured."
The old lady sneered: "The sun really rises from the west. How can you be so kind?"
A hint of unnaturalness flashed across Li Haiting's face, but it was quickly concealed.
She bent down and placed the gift box in her hand at the door, then turned around and took out a document from the bag her husband was holding.
Then he turned around and looked at the old lady. "You know what advertising is like. There aren't many pictures. Just announce the content. I'll give you tens of thousands of dollars after it's done. It will definitely improve your living conditions."
Li Haiting said so.
The old lady couldn't tell whether she was angry or not, she just looked at her only daughter with great disappointment.
Seeing that the old lady had no intention of accepting it, Li Haiting handed the document to Xia Yunxi and said, "Well, read it to the old lady and persuade her to agree. After she signs it, I can talk to my brother and let him make the arrangements."
Xia Yunxi looked at the document handed to her. She didn't take it, but asked softly, "If we want to improve the living conditions of the old lady and the old man, can't this lady and the gentleman who didn't show up give them living expenses?"
"What? They want my brother and I to give them living expenses?" Li Haiting screamed, as if she had heard something incredible. "You are just a nanny, what qualifications do you have to shout here?
Do you know how expensive things are out there? Do you know how hard it is to support a family? Oh, after we get married, we have elderly parents and young children to support. Where can we find any spare money? "
"If life wasn't so stressful, would I have been able to find solutions everywhere and then come to their homes to help them become self-reliant and resolve their financial difficulties?"
"In the final analysis, ma'am, you still despise your own parents. Not only do they block your path and bring you into disrepute... but because your parents have no power or influence, they are nothing but a nuisance and burden to you."
