Jiang Xun realized that Master Sun, who had lived here before, must have moved away and a new neighbor had come.
But judging from the situation, it seems that the new neighbor is not easy to get along with.
"Auntie, I didn't hit your grandson. He accidentally ran out and bumped into me." Jiang Xun explained.
"Jiang Xun, what's going on?" Ye Li saw that Jiang Xun had not returned from delivering something, so she came over and happened to hear the conversation between the two.
"It's your fault. Look at the big bump on my grandson's head. He's seriously injured. We need to go to the hospital. Send us there for a check-up!" The old lady didn't care about the facts and asked Jiang Xun to take Hu Zi for a check-up.
"Jiang Xun, go to the kitchen and get the sesame oil, quickly!" Ye Li said, pushing Jiang Xun to go get something. Jiang Xun put the bag aside and quickly ran to the kitchen to get the sesame oil.
"Don't leave. We're not done yet! Who are you? Oh, you're his wife, right? It's not convenient for you to go with your big belly. How about this? You don't have to go to the hospital. Just compensate us ten dollars and we'll be done with it."
As soon as these words came out, the old lady's purpose was exposed. It was a typical case of blackmail.
When Ye Li heard the old lady's words, he did not respond, but checked the bag on Xiaohu's head.
...
...
"Can you please say something?" The old lady didn't expect Ye Li to ignore her directly.
"The scented oil is here."
Jiang Xun handed the sesame oil bottle to Ye Li. Ye Li opened the bottle, poured some onto a handkerchief, and was about to wipe it on Xiaohu's bag.
"What are you doing!" The old lady immediately grabbed Ye Li's hand, preventing her from touching Xiaohu.
"If you want your grandson to get rid of the bump on his head as soon as possible so that he will suffer less, just let go of your hand immediately." Ye Li said as he shook off the old lady's hand and quickly applied the scented oil on the handkerchief to Xiaohu's big bump.
Ye Li learned this method from Qin Ying. Last time, she accidentally hit her head and got a bump. Who would have thought that the swelling would go away quickly after applying sesame oil.
"Don't think I'll let you go just like that. Either give me money or send you to the hospital!" The old lady kept making a fuss and refused to give up.
"Grandma, I don't want to go to the hospital! I'm fine, don't take me to the hospital! Ask them to pay compensation! I want to buy something delicious!" Xiaohu refused to go to the hospital when he heard that they had to go to the hospital and started making trouble again.
"Shut up! How come you're okay? Do you feel dizzy or want to vomit? Huh? Do you feel very uncomfortable?" The old lady began to guide Xiaohu to lie.
"Auntie, what are you doing? Your grandson has already said that everything is fine, but you are still here letting him lie. Is it worth it just for a few dollars? Isn't this teaching the child to be bad?" Ye Li couldn't listen any longer. How could there be such an elder who would teach people to be bad?
"Hey, it's just a few dollars. You are a wealthy family, so you don't even look down on ten dollars. We are a small family, and ten dollars is a treasure. Don't talk nonsense to me, just give me the money!"
"It's impossible to get compensation. Otherwise, we should go to the hospital and let the doctor take a look at the child's injuries. We will give him injections or infusions if necessary. We will follow the doctor's orders and will never shirk our responsibilities." Ye Li would not follow the old lady's wishes and let her extort money from him.
"I'm not going to the hospital! No! Grandma, let's go. I don't want any injections or infusions!" Xiaohu was afraid to go to the hospital for an injection, so he stood up from the ground and pulled the old lady to leave.
"Xiaohu, Mom. What are you doing?"
A girl about twenty-three or twenty-four came back from outside, holding two bottles of soda in her hands, and stood next to the old lady.
"Auntie, they bullied me! He hit me with a big bag, look at the bump on my head!" When Xiaohu saw his aunt coming back, he started to complain again.
"Let me see." Zhou Lin glanced at the bump on Xiaohu's head, then patted Xiaohu and said, "The bump has already started to go away, it's nothing serious."
"How can it be no big deal, Linlin? What's the big deal about an adult beating a child? They're just bullying us because we just moved in." The old lady added fuel to the fire.
"I didn't hit him, he accidentally bumped into my bag." Jiang Xun explained the situation again.
"Xiaohu, how did he beat you? Tell your aunt about it." Zhou Lin glanced at Jiang Xun, then turned around and asked Xiaohu.
Ye Li couldn't help but frown when she heard Zhou Lin's words. Was this another unreasonable person? She wanted to see how this woman was going to blackmail her. Would her methods be better than the old lady's?
"Uh... he swung the big bag hard like this, yes! It was more than one meter high and hit me directly on the head!" Xiaohu gestured with his hands and spoke as if it were real.
Ye Li and Jiang Xun heard this and laughed softly. This was really ridiculous. She and Jiang Xun knew how heavy the bag was. It would take all their strength to swing it more than a meter high.
"Xiao Hu, I'm going to ask you one last time, did he hit you like this just now? Are you sure?" Zhou Lin looked at Xiao Hu seriously and confirmed again.
"The child has already said it. Why are you still asking? Are you still the child's aunt? If you don't want to make decisions for the child, go back to the room and don't make trouble here." The old lady was obviously dissatisfied with Zhou Lin and wanted to drive her away.
Zhou Lin glanced at her mother and motioned her not to speak. Then she walked to the bag next to Jiang Xun and lifted it with both hands. She found that the bag was very heavy and she had to use a lot of strength to lift it.
Ye Li and Jiang Xun looked at the girl with interest, wondering what she was trying to do.
After taking the bag, Zhou Lin returned to the old lady and walked back with Xiaohu.
"Zhou Lin! What are you doing?" The old lady was unhappy. Wasn't this ruining her plan?
"What are you doing? Go home! Mom, you are really making trouble and bringing Hu Zi with you!" Zhou Lin complained with a frown.
"This bag was definitely not thrown by someone else. Don't you see how heavy the bag is? I could hardly lift it just now. How could it have hit Hu Zi's head? The child is lying, and you are also confused!"
Zhou Lin's words were really sharp, even in front of outsiders, he didn't give his mother any face, and the old lady's face turned red and white.
"What do you know! Just go away. Not only do you not want to help, but you're also scolding me." The old lady shook off her daughter's hand and stood there, refusing to leave.
"You've just moved in for one day and your old problem has come back again. I'm going to complain to my brother and ask him to send you back to the village!" As soon as Zhou Lin said this, the old lady immediately wilted and stopped talking.
"Aunt, you bought my soda! Give it to me quickly, and go buy me some food." Xiaohu saw Zhou Lin holding two bottles of soda and tried to snatch them, but was slapped by Zhou Lin.
"You still have the nerve to eat and drink. You are so young and follow your grandma and don't learn well. When your dad comes back, I will let him teach you a lesson!"
After Zhou Lin finished speaking, she glanced at the two bottles of soda in her arms, turned around and walked in front of Ye Li and Jiang Xun.
"I'm sorry, we just moved in and have caused you trouble. I just wronged this brother. Take these two bottles of soda." Zhou Lin said as she gave the soda to Jiang Xun.
"No, we don't want it. Let's give it to the child. After all, the bump on his head was caused by me." Jiang Xun said as he returned the soda.
"No! He's lying at such a young age, he deserves a lesson!"
