Chapter 314

Su Jingsheng and Sun Hui had their hands destroyed. To save their lives, they had to undergo amputations. Both of them, having lost all four hands, were now left as cripples. Without hands, everyday life becomes inconvenient in every conceivable way. They had since been discharged from the hospital and returned to their dilapidated old house. Their daughter, Su Qiulu, was the one looking after them, though she was no longer the cheerful, lively, and willful girl she had once been. She had become reticent, barely managing to utter a single sentence throughout the day. Su Jingsheng and Sun Hui were supported by her. Because their wounds had yet to fully recover, they spent their days sitting at home watching television. Even if they were to recover, their condition rendered them incapable of doing anything productive. Without hands, even washing their faces was a struggle; even if they tried to find work, no one would hire them, not even for the most menial labor.
