Chapter 1150: Someone Who’s Received the New Education
As expected, everyone changes. The past Zhu Suniang wasn’t like this at all. The collapse of the Zhu family has really changed her.
“Suniang, I’ve never thought about asking you for money. It’s just that you left with the child without telling me so I was worried. I thought something had happened to you.” Zhu Yanqiu’s tone contained concern.
A smile immediately appeared on Ning Shu’s face and she said, “I thought that you were here to ask me for money again. I’ll give you more money as soon as my paycheck comes out, alright? Just endure for a few more days.”
Zhu Yanqiu immediately felt the strong contempt in the eyes of the people around. He said, “Suniang, I still have class so I’ll come find you tomorrow.”
Zhu Yanqiu left in a fluster, looking pretty wretched.
“Nurse Zhu, that’s your husband?” The head nurse in her forties addressed Ning Shu. “He looks pretty upright, how can he do something like that?”
Ning Shu said with a smile, “He’s someone who’s received the new education. He pursues freedom in love and opposes the feudal arranged marriage, so he can’t accept me.” The new education taught people to abandon their wives and children?
“That kind of man is no good,” said the head nurse. “However, you’re the legal wife. That kind of vixen will never be legitimate.”
Ning Shu didn’t speak. Based on what the head nurse was saying, she wanted her try to save this marriage. Ning Shu had no desire to do this. Why should she try to save it? And there was no guarantee that she’d be able to save it.
During this period of time without Zhu Yanqiu, she and her child had lived perfectly well, very well, in fact. She didn’t need to attend to some great young master and face his verbal abuse.
Anyone could live a good life. Even if a woman didn’t have a man, she could still live a good life. What loneliness was there? Women that thought this way simply wanted someone to rely on. And someone like Zhu Yanqiu couldn’t be relied on at all, on the contrary, he’d suck the marrow out of your bones. Zhu Yanqiu would never share Zhu Suniang’s hardships and suffering. If he had to share someone’s hardships and suffering, he’d share Fang Feifei’s.
He never regarded Zhu Suniang as a person of the same status, he had always been super aloof and contemptful.
“Don’t be too sad. Men are all like this. When they’re young, they get captivated by any flower they see. Once they get older though, they’ll return to their families.” The head nurse consoled Ning Shu.
Ning Shu took off her nurse uniform to go pick up Zhu Siyuan from school. She had no desire to wait until the prodigal son returned home. Besides, how could Zhu Yanqiu ever ‘return home’? Even if he did try, she’d just kick him out of the way.
A prodigal son was simply a prodigal son. It was easier for the landscapes to change then for human nature to change.
After picking Zhu Siyuan up from the school, she took Zhu Siyuan to a Western restaurant to eat steak. She’d rather use up all the money then give it to Zhu Yanqiu.
