"How is that possible? Mengmeng is not that kind of person no matter what. Don't think too much. Just eat something first." Shen Hongmei saw that his hands were shaking when he tried to take the spoon, so she reached out to help.
Shen Hongmei had cooked some broth early in the morning and brought it over, so when Li Pingshu opened the bowl and saw the broth filled with meat, he started to cry while eating, and his tears immediately flowed into the broth: "What should I do? What should I do..."
"Old Li, you said you are the pillar of the family at this time. If you cry, Dagang's mother will also be sad and cry when she sees it. So please stop crying, okay?" Shen Hongmei was already very sad in her heart, but she still had to comfort him many times.
Li Pingshu knew that he still had a lot of things to do. If he was not full, how could he have the energy to work? So he forced himself to eat the food voraciously.
Li Dagang had just come out of the operating room. When Zhang Caixia saw the empty leg, her tormented heart could no longer bear it and she was in great pain.
She stroked Li Dagang's face, feeling extremely sad, tears streaming down her face: "Dagang, it's all my fault. It's all my fault. Blame my bad popularity... I just asked them to donate blood for you, but no one was willing..."
Zhang Caixia felt as if her own flesh had been cut when her son lost a leg. Her tears, which had dried up after a night of crying, began to linger again, and her voice became hoarse.
"Old woman, don't cry, don't cry." Li Pingshu asked her to rest and pushed Li Dagang to the ward.
Li Dagang slowly woke up. He looked at the ward with a pale face. Li Pingshu said, "Dagang, you're awake."
"Mom, Dad." Li Dagang must have some memories, so he knew that he almost died. Li Pingshu saw Zhang Caixia still crying with her face covered. He was almost tortured to death: "Don't cry, your child will feel bad if you cry like this. If you cry like this, won't the child feel worse?"
Zhang Caixia quickly wiped away her tears and said, "Dagang, it's okay. It will be fine in the future."
Yan Shuhua, who had been standing aside with Shen Hongmei, really didn't dare to stay any longer and was about to leave. As soon as he went out, he ran into Shen Mengmeng who had just come in.
"Yan Shuhua, you..." Shen Mengmeng had hated her in her heart for a long time, because even though she and Li Dagang were already married, Li Dagang was still thinking about her in his heart. But today she didn't want to quarrel with Yan Shuhua, so she gave way to her.
"Mom and Dad, I'll go back and make you something to eat." Shen Mengmeng walked in with a lunch box. When she saw that the leg was empty, she was suddenly so scared that she dropped her food on the floor, horrified, "How could they saw so much? Didn't they say it was just the calf?"
Li Pingshu stopped her at the right time: "Mengmeng, don't say these words anymore."
Li Dagang had actually realized a long time ago that he had lost a leg. He was now really disheartened and looked ashen, thinking that living like this was too meaningless.
Zhang Caixia didn't want to pay attention to Shen Mengmeng. Seeing her picking up the fallen food on the floor, she looked like she was about to explode: "Mengmeng, your husband is in trouble. Where did you go last night? Is this how you take care of your husband?"
"Mom, I didn't sleep from yesterday afternoon to evening, and I'm very sleepy. You know, I'll go back early and cook some food to bring over. The food in this hospital is so expensive. I don't know how much it will cost for Dagang's leg injury now. We can save every meal." Shen Mengmeng's words made Zhang Caixia's face turn pale and blue.
"Is this how you act as a wife? Is this how you take care of your husband? In your eyes, Dagang's life is not as important as a meal, right?"
Shen Mengmeng had suffered too much injustice during the time she and Li Dagang were married, and now she could no longer bear it.
"Mom, you keep telling me to hurry up and have a baby, but you ask your son if he has ever touched me since he got married. If people spread the word that he hasn't touched me, will they laugh at me?"
Shen Mengmeng pointed at Li Dagang lying on the hospital bed and condemned him.
"Dagang has only had Yan Shuhua in his heart from the beginning to the end!" Shen Mengmeng was so sad. "I knew it before I married Dagang, but I thought they were not destined to be together and would gradually lose this relationship. But who would have thought that he didn't care at all and didn't have me in his heart at all. Why would I marry a man like this?"
Shen Mengmeng's complaints were too abrupt in the ward. Li Pingshu shook his hands, no longer able to persuade her: "Mengmeng, Dagang just came out of surgery, please stop saying these things. It will make Dagang feel so uncomfortable."
"Dad, I didn't think of saying these words, but look at Mom, she doesn't even consider me as her daughter-in-law!" Shen Mengmeng was about to continue talking when Li Pingshu quickly interrupted her, "Okay, okay, don't say any more. If you think the hospital is a bad place to stay, then go back."
"Mom and Dad, then you guys hurry up and finish your food. I'll take the lunch box back and bring you food in the afternoon." Shen Mengmeng didn't even dare to look at Li Dagang, thinking how scary it would be to lose a leg.
"No, Hongmei has already brought the meal over and we both have eaten." Li Pingshu said in a pale and weak voice.
"What about the food?" Shen Mengmeng muttered, "I got up early in the morning to cook these..."
"It's already on the floor, how can you still eat it?" Zhang Caixia glared at her. Shen Mengmeng kept muttering, "Mom, there are some things on it that haven't touched the floor. Of course you can eat it. Look, this is the meat my mom bought specially for you two to nourish your bodies."
Shen Mengmeng's words were like the buzzing of flies that gave her a headache. She didn't want to hear her voice for even a minute, so she ordered her to leave: "Go away quickly, go away quickly. I'm so angry when I see you now, go away quickly."
Shen Mengmeng ran away as if she had been pardoned, without even asking how Li Dagang was doing.
Zhang Caixia really felt extremely uncomfortable, looking at her son, who became a disabled person from today. Not to mention working on the farm, how he would survive in the future was still a big problem.
