Rise From the Humble

"Shu'er, what's wrong with your wrist?"

Li Shu had already attracted everyone's attention because she ate so little, but now after hearing what Chen said, everyone turned their attention to Li Shu's wrist.

The scar on Li Shu's wrist is very obvious. It is half a circle around the wrist. It is as thick as a little finger. At first glance, it looks a bit ferocious, as if there is a bracelet made of scar on the wrist. Judging from the scarring, it should have been an injury just a few days ago.

But why is the wound so big and the scar so deep? How much suffering did this child have to suffer? How did you get injured?

It's so distressing.

Mrs. Chen looked at Li Shu's scars, her eyes filled with distress.

Sister-in-law Juaner also asked with concern. Although Father Zhu and the others did not speak, their eyes were full of concern.

In their opinion, this hideous wound may have been the injury they suffered when they encountered pirates on the sea last time. After all, those pirates are desperadoes who kill without blinking an eye. It is normal to chop and wound people, not even to kill. Accident.

However, these pirates are so cruel that even girls like Li Shu can deal such heavy blows!

"Oh, it's nothing, just a scar." Li Shu smiled lightly, then pulled her sleeves down slightly to cover the scar, and then served the rice.

Although Li Shu covered the scar with her sleeves, the ferocious appearance of the scar just now stood out in everyone's mind.

"It's nothing. There are such big scars. How much pain have you suffered? Those pirates who kill without batting an eye are too cruel. Even a girl like Shu'er can deal with such a heavy hand." Mother Chen said very I felt distressed, and the corners of my eyes were wet, as if I had seen those murderous pirates swinging their knives at Li Shu, and it was so scary just thinking about it.

"Mom, I'm not a pirate, no." After finishing the meal, Li Shusheng shook her head and comforted Mrs. Chen with a smile.

"Not a pirate? How did you get injured?" Chen asked curiously.

"I did it myself. It just looks scary, but it's nothing." After Li Shu sat down, she looked at her wrist again, then said nonchalantly, and smiled to comfort everyone, as if the scar was just a very insignificant scar. The same little things.

is it you? Mrs. Chen was stunned, and everyone was also stunned. Except for Zhu Pingan, such a serious injury was actually caused by himself? Well, this new daughter-in-law doesn't have a brain problem, right? Why did she injure herself and leave such a big scar? Have a tendency to self-harm? There is a madman in the village next door. He usually looks okay, but when he goes crazy, no one can stop him. He will hit others with scissors, kitchen knives, whatever he has in his hand, no matter if you are a relative or a stranger.

Although she didn't believe it, Ms. Chen couldn't help but think of a certain scene: Zhu Pingan was eating, bang, Li Shu rushed out with a kitchen knife; Zhu Pingan and Li Shu were resting in bed, bang, Li Shu suddenly pulled out the hairpin. , with a fierce look on his face. It’s scary to think about it!

"Brother and sister, why did you get such a big wound on your hand?"

There were some things that Mrs. Chen was not comfortable asking, so her sister-in-law Juaner took the initiative to ask them.

"Oh, this," Li Shu began to recall. When she mentioned the danger, her pretty face was still full of fear, "The last time we encountered pirates at sea, there happened to be a big storm again, and the boat capsized. I My husband, Hua'er, and I were washed up on an island. As we approached the island, another big wave came and washed us to the shore. However, there were many rocks on the shore of the island. The waves knocked us onto the rocks, but my husband protected us. I hit a rock myself."

Hearing this, Ms. Chen and the others all became nervous. Although Zhu Ping'an and Li Shu had returned safely now, they still couldn't help but become nervous when they thought of the scene Li Shu described, with their hearts in their throats.

"My husband passed out. Hua'er and I carried him to the shore. He didn't wake up no matter what. He was just trying to protect me." At this point, a tear fell on Li Shu's pretty face.

Everyone became worried as they listened, especially Mrs. Chen who was even more worried.

"My husband fell into a coma and screamed for a long time. He didn't wake up. He just said 'water' unconsciously. My husband's lips were white and chapped. I looked very worried, but you can't drink sea water and there was no water nearby. "When Li Shu said this, she still had the anxious and helpless look on her face.

"But if your husband doesn't drink water, something will happen to you. I was so worried that I cut my wrist with a shell from the shore and gave the blood to my husband to drink." Li Shu said these words in a normal tone. , as if what he was doing was a trivial matter, with a faint smile on his face, as if he was a little happy that he could find a way to feed Zhu Pingan water.

Zhu Pingan fell into a coma, was severely dehydrated, and there was no water around, so I cut his wrist with a shell and fed the blood to Zhu Pingan to drink.

Li Shu said it very calmly, but when everyone heard it, it stirred up huge waves in the hearts of everyone, as if they saw the spoiled young lady sitting on a deserted island, picking up a rough shell, and scratching herself one by one. Wrist scene.

"Maybe the wound was too small at first, and the blood stopped flowing after a while. Then, I scratched more with the shell, and the blood flowed more." Li Shu said and imitated the shell with her little finger. .

Even the crunching sound seemed to be in my ears.

Listening to this, Mrs. Chen and others couldn't help but take a breath and their colors changed. Another scene appeared in front of their eyes: when Li Shu cut her wrist with a shell to feed Zhu Ping'an, the blood stopped flowing. The wound solidified a little, and then Li Shu looked at the wound, then pressed the shell on the wound and scratched it again.

Mrs. Chen and the others had never heard the story of Sakyamuni Buddha cutting his flesh to feed an eagle, nor did they know the story of Jie Zitui cutting his flesh to give to Shi Chong'er. However, they were shocked when they heard about Li Shu cutting his wrists and feeding Zhu Ping'an blood. Nothing less.

"Fortunately, my husband woke up after drinking the blood," Li Shu said with a happy smile on her face.

When everyone looked up at Li Shu again, they felt very ashamed. When they just found out about Li Shu's injured hand, they thought Li Shu was crazy. Unexpectedly, Li Shu cut her wrist to save Zhu Pingan, and in order to let more blood flow, Li Shu cut the wound very big. This silly girl, why did she cut her hand so hard? It almost reached the bone. , does it hurt?

At this moment, Mrs. Chen looked at Li Shu with moist eyes.

In Mrs. Chen's heart, Li Shu is the best second daughter-in-law. In Mrs. Chen's heart, Li Shu's daughter-in-law's position cannot be replaced by anyone.

In the eyes of everyone in the Zhu family, Li Shu is already a member of the Zhu family, not just in form, but in their hearts they truly regard Li Shu as a family member.

It only took half a day to meet her parents-in-law, and Li Shu had completely integrated into the Zhu family.

"Zhu Pingan!"

Mother Chen suddenly turned to look at Zhu Pingan and called Zhu Pingan's name.

"Ah?" Zhu Ping'an was startled, because his mother, Mrs. Chen, had never called him by his name like this before. She usually called him by his name like Zhe'er, Xiaozhi, or the second child. This was the first time that he was called by his name so formally.

"Ah, what? You must treat Shu'er well from now on. Don't bully Shu'er. If you let me know that you touched Shu'er with a finger, I will break your legs if you don't!" Mother Chen looked at her fiercely. She looked after Zhu Ping'an and protected Li Shu like a hen protecting her cubs.

"Mother" Li Shu raised her head and looked at her mother Chen, her big eyes filled with emotion.

"Mother" Zhu Ping'an was caught off guard and looked confused.
