Chapter 277 Era - The Demoted Scapegoat 7
Seeing Ning Ning start to eat, the old man sitting at the table seemed to be very emotional and said: "Looking at the posture you had when you just woke up, I thought you were a little hot pepper!
I didn’t expect you to be different from what I imagined. I’m afraid you were scared that day!”
Ning Ning thought to herself, it’s been several days, and it’s finally time to get to the point!
It must be true that the old man wants to take care of Ning Ning, and Ning Ning appreciates it!
But at the same time, he also wanted to see whether Ning Ning had really lost her memory and test Ning Ning's background. This was inevitable!
Ning Ning also sighed, as if recalling what happened that day, and said: "I had no choice at that time! When I opened my eyes, I found a woman who said she was my mother. After observing her, I found that she was lying!
To be honest, I was extremely panicked at that time. I thought you were all human traffickers and were ready to fight to the death!
After observation, I realized that you and those two people are not in the same group!
After hearing Uncle Li talk about being sent down to the countryside and severing ties, I finally understood the situation I was in!"
Having said that, Ning Ning did not continue the topic, but asked:
"You have been taking care of me these past few days, I cannot thank you enough!
If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay you!
But I still don't know your name! What's your last name? Why were you sent here?
You don't look like a bad person. Can you tell me what's going on?
Maybe when I leave here, I can help you clear your name and get you out of here too!"
The old man waved his hand and said, "I don't want to think about repaying or not repaying!
There is nothing I cannot talk about! "
The old man seemed to be lost in memories of the past.
"As for me, you can just call me Old Man Shi. My name is Shi Qingshan.
In Miancheng, there is a pawnshop left by my ancestors. I was reported by the shop assistants and was then demoted here."
Shi Qingshan told Ning Ning a lot of stories about his pawnshop in the past, and Ning Ning listened very carefully!
After talking for a while, he found that Ning Ning had finished eating the rabbit legs and waved his hand.
"Stop talking, stop talking. Old people just love to nag! Little girl, do you still remember who are the people in your family?
These days, Jiang Guangfei and the others have been saying outside that you are just willful and unwilling to recognize them for the time being. It will be fine once you figure it out.
But I don’t believe it!
When I saw you, you were unconscious.
They say you are their daughter, but I always feel strange about the way they treat you!
It wasn't until that day when you woke up, said it wasn't their child, and pointed out so much evidence that I realized where that weird feeling came from!
You are so pitiful, how much can you remember about your family? "
Ning Ning raised her eyebrows imperceptibly.
I wondered in my heart, was it because Jiang Guangfei and his men had cleanly cleaned up the mess, making it impossible for Shi Qingshan and his gang to find any clues about the original owner's home, or was it because they were testing me?
But no matter what the situation is, it’s not a big problem for Ning Ning!
As long as they can take this investigation seriously now, that's enough!
Ning Ning pretended to be trying hard to recall.
“I don’t remember exactly where my home is or who is home.
Every time I think about it, it’s just a vague impression!
But I vaguely remember that there seemed to be a river at the east end of the village, and there should be a bridge over the river.
My home seems to be not far from this bridge..."
These are the images that were transmitted at the very beginning of memory transmission!
Although there were other things, in order to create the illusion that she was gradually remembering them, Ning Ning did not say much this time.
Instead, while recalling the past, his pulse quietly changed, his face turned pale, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead!
Seeing Ning Ning like this, Old Man Shi hurriedly stopped her, "How are you? Do you have a headache again? Is it serious?
Don’t think about it for now. It’s not too late to think about it later when you are in better shape!
It’s all my fault. I don’t know anything about medicine. Don’t let thinking about these things affect your recovery!
Wait, I'll find a doctor for you!"
Ning Ning rubbed her forehead.
"It's okay, Grandpa Shi, there's no need to see a doctor. The doctor said before that this is all normal!
How can I blame you for this? I also wanted to remember it earlier.
The sooner I remember it, the sooner I can know where home is!
Not knowing where home is, this person is like a rootless duckweed, always feeling uneasy!
It gives me a headache every time I think about it!
But I’m much better now. When I get better, I should be able to remember more!
When I think about the past, I always feel like there's a layer of fog covering it. The more I try to see clearly, the blurrier it becomes!
"This is probably because you haven't taken good care of it. Try to take care of it later, and maybe it will appear in your mind without you even having to think about it!
You lie down and rest for a while, I'll get back to work!
Can you do it yourself? Do you need to report to the captain and ask the doctor to come over and check on you?
No, don't bear it. When it comes to the brain, there's no such thing as a small matter!"
"It's okay, Grandpa Shi, I just have a headache. As long as I stop thinking about those things, I'll be fine in a while. Sorry to bother you!"
Old Man Shi saw that Ning Ning's expression had eased a little, and he felt relieved.
"Okay, if you have any questions, just tell me and I'll definitely help you! You take a break, I'm going to work!"
After saying that, Old Man Shi walked out!
After Old Man Shi left, Ning Ning used her spiritual sense to carefully search the surroundings, and only after confirming that there was no one around did she sit up.
Old Man Shi was obviously approaching Ning Ning, wanting to see if Ning Ning had any flaws!
Even if her identity is found out, the higher-ups have to confirm that her identity is correct before they can let Ning Ning leave.
There's nothing we can do about it!
Before revealing his observation skills, he anticipated that his behavior would arouse suspicion from above.
Now it is just a necessary step.
I have to be more careful from now on, otherwise I will easily be regarded as a key suspect and be trapped here forever!
In the following days, Ning Ning behaved well and did not take any other actions.
He recuperated in the cowshed every day, and his vigilance and disgust towards Jiang Guangfei and his wife were obvious to everyone!
He can communicate normally with other people, especially he is very close to Shi Qingshan!
In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed, and the new flesh on Ning Ning's wound had basically grown back.
The team leader did not take the initiative to ask Ning Ning to go to work, but Ning Ning could not be kept like this forever!
That morning, when it was time to go to work, Ning Ning followed everyone out and planned to work together!
Shi Qingshan saw Ning Ning coming out and asked hurriedly, "Are you planning to go to work? Is that okay?
Don't just let the skin heal. The inside hasn't healed yet. What if it gets worse? You should rest for a few days before coming out!"
