Chapter 1122: Your Mom’s About to Die, Come Back

So then as Zhu Siyuan’s mother, she had to serve as a good role model. Wasn’t Fang Feifei called hero in a headdress after all?

Ning Shu was very busy every single day. She didn’t sleep at night and just spent that time meditating. The moment dawn arrived she would get up to start making tofu again.

Right now, her only goal was to earn more money and buy more rations. Once chaos broke out, rations would become very scarce. At that time, she wouldn’t even be able to buy a steamed bun with a gold bar.

As she worked on fulfilling Zhu Suniang’s wish and taking good care of Zhu Siyuan, she still had to help plan a happy life for Zhu Suniang. Wasn’t the reason that Zhu Suniang fell to that point in the end precisely because she wasn’t as talented as Fang Feifei?

The weather was getting colder. Ning Shu bought some cotton and cloth to make cotton-padded jackets for Little Siyuan and herself. The only reason she didn’t make one for Mother Zhu was because Mother Zhu was now so sick that she couldn’t even get out of bed.

No matter how much medicine she took, it didn’t seem to help. Even though it was pointless, Ning Shu would still get medicine regularly and simmer it for Mother Zhu to drink. She even bought more honeyed fruits several times.

Ning Shu felt that this illness was due to Mother Zhu’s mentality. Mother Zhu simply couldn’t take hardship. If she managed to keep enduring things, she definitely would’ve become a blessed old madame. After all, Zhu Yanqiu would flourish in the future.

Sometimes Mother Zhu’s illness would be so bad that she couldn’t do anything but mutter Zhu Yanqiu’s name. From the looks of things, she wouldn’t last for much longer. When the doctor came to take a look, he told Ning Shu to start preparing for the funeral.

Ning Shu would frequently go to the post office to send Zhu Yanqiu telegrams to have him come back. At first, Zhu Yanqiu would still reply, but later, he had probably become too annoyed to bother. Furthermore, she hadn’t sent him any money, so he got angry and didn’t bother to reply all.

Ning Shu directly said, your mom’s about to die, come back to see her off.

This time, Zhu Yanqiu replied. He was very unhappy with the fact that Ning Shu had said that his mother was about to die. Zhu Yanqiu didn’t believe that his mother was about to die. Mother Zhu was the madame of a wealthy family and has always taken care of her own body well. Furthermore, Zhu Yanqiu was also aware that Zhu Suniang did all the work in the household.

At the end of the letter, Zhu Yanqiu said, you’ve worked hard looking after the family. After that, he started talking again about how cold winter was in Shanghai, that the sea breeze from the Huangpu River was damp and cold. In any case, he needed money to buy clothes.

Ning Shu: →_→

Ning Shu ripped the telegram. In any case, no matter what she said, Zhu Yanqiu wouldn’t be coming back. After leaving the post office, she started preparing the coffin and burial clothes.

As of now, Mother Zhu couldn’t even eat properly and could only drink soft foods. Sometimes she wouldn’t even be able to drink water.

Whenever Mother Zhu was clearheaded, she would ask Ning Shu, was Yanqiu back? The moment Ning Shu said no, Mother Zhu would start crying.

#comment: Tbh, my mom is really like Mother Zhu. Unlike Mother Zhu, she’s always been a strong figure in my childhood, she seemed able to solve any problems my brother and I had. Like Mother Zhu, she was really good with interpersonal relationships and it was through connections that she had guaranteed my brother and I good educations even though we always had to move around due to our parents looking for work. But also like Mother Zhu, she’s really strongly attached to family. Ever since college started, I’m always away from home at college, doing summer internships, and studying abroad, so whenever I’m away, she has sleeping and eating issues. Fortunately my brother’s also very attached to family so he stays at home and keeps her sane. *sighs* Thank god for fam.

But right now since I’m at home, she’s eating a little bit too well. She’s on the verge of turning into a plump pig. I think I spend at least half an hour every day talking her into doing some form of exercise. Now she gets ready to escape every time I change into workout clothes.
