Chapter 1118: Grandma Fell
It had been half a month since the last time Zhu Suniang had sent money. As of now, Zhu Yanqiu was asking for money more and more frequently. He was probably making progress with Fang Feifei.
It burned a lot of money for cultured youths to date. After all, they were enjoying things on the spiritual level.
Ning Shu put all this money away. Selling tofu today nearly killed her with exhaustion. The thought of giving this money to Zhu Yanqiu hurt her heart so much that she couldn’t even breathe.
Right now, she had to work harder on saving up money in order to make it so that she and her son would be able to live a better life. Before doing anything else, she had to first make sure they could eat their fill.
It was time for her to go grind beans again. Pushing the millstone was exhausting work, she didn’t have time to rest all. She was so sleepy that she almost fell asleep while grinding the beans.
This body didn’t have very good health. It had been overstrained to the point that Zhu Suniang died from overwork just at the age of forty, so if she had time, she should practice the Unsurpassable Martial Arts.
If she knew earlier that she was going to be in a chaotic era, she would have exchange for a gun beforehand. Ability to protect oneself was a must.
“Mom, Grandma... Grandma fell. She’s sleeping on the ground.” Zhu Siyuan walked over while shouting worriedly. As he stepped over the doorstep, he almost tripped.
Right now, Zhu Siyuan still couldn’t speak very clearly, but Ning Shu understood. Mother Zhu had tripped.
Ning Shu left the kitchen and came to the central room to find that Mother Zhu had fallen to the ground. Her eyes were closed and her face was very pale. The situation didn’t seem to be good.
Ning Shu originally wanted to get Mother Zhu onto the bed but she couldn’t move Mother Zhu on her own, so she said to Little Siyuan, “Siyuan, be good, alright? Mom’s going to go look for help so you look after your grandma and don’t go anywhere, got it?”
Ning Shu hastily went out and found a couple middle-aged women to have them help her carry Mother Zhu to the bed.
The reason she only had women help was to avoid attracting suspicion. Mother Zhu was widowed and there were no men in the household. If a man came to their residence, it would be bad for their reputations.
In these times, although there was the Western notion of equality for all, the feudal way of thinking was still very deeply rooted and it was very strict towards women.
With the help of the aunts, Ning Shu manage to get the unconscious Mother Zhu onto the bed. Ning Shu had the aunts help take care of Mother Zhu and the child, then she headed to the pharmacy to request a doctor.
