Chapter 1141: First Day of School
Ning Shu thought that Fang Feifei wouldn’t be able to borrow the money, but unexpectedly, Fang Feifei had already gotten two silver dollars together by the next day. These silver dollars were borrowed from their classmates and she even wrote IOUs.
Zhu Yanqiu sighed in relief since he didn’t have to worry about the treatment fee anymore. When he saw Ning Shu, he puffed out his chest and said smugly, “Who says that I’ll be leaving the hospital soon? My girlfriend’s very popular at my university, there’s no way she’ll let me down. “
Ning Shu: → _ →
What are you being smug for? You’re talking like you don’t have to pay back this money. Once the time comes, she’d like to see where he’d pull out money from? It’d definitely be extremely embarrassing. It’d be best if he ended up working at the Huangpu dock unloading cargo.
Fang Feifei only went to borrow money because she wasn’t willing pay another two silver dollars. It’s always been bad to have money involved in the relationship between friends of different genders. When those students came to ask for their money back, they’d be looking for Zhu Yanqiu instead of Fang Feifei.
Fang Feifei would come to the hospital to look after Zhu Yanqiu whenever she didn’t have class. Her attitude was pretty considerate, so Zhu Yanqiu was pretty happy.
Ning Shu rarely appeared in front of Zhu Yanqiu anymore, she spent most of her time studying military knowledge and working on strengthening her body. Otherwise, when the time came to head to the battlefield, she wouldn’t even have enough strength to run for her life. She practiced martial arts and honed her shooting technique for the sake of increasing her chances of survival.
The turmoil that would be coming soon would last for a very long time, she had to make sure to stay alive until the task was completed.
Ning Shu meticulously completed every training on the agenda. Due to practicing the Unsurpassable Martial Arts, she was very strong. During the running with sandbags training, her sandbags were heavier than that of the other three men. Furthermore, she now had some money, so she naturally treated herself well. She ate very well, so her body was no longer as weak as it was before.
In the blink of an eyes, almost an entire year had passed. Zhu Siyuan had reached the age for going to school so Ning Shu brought Zhu Siyuan to the school. Zhu Siyuan had never left Ning Shu’s side before, so he clung to Ning Shu’s leg at the entrance of the school and bawled his head off, crying ‘Mom, don’t throw me away!’
Ning Shu patiently comforted him, saying ‘Mom wouldn’t throw Siyuan away. It’s time for Siyuan to go to school, there are a lot of friends here.’
Zhu Siyuan was a child who didn’t really have a sense of security. He never had a father in his life and for as long as he could remember, he had only harbored resentment towards his father for being so heartless toward his mother.
Every day, when Zhu Siyuan got out of class, Ning Shu would be waiting at the entrance to pick him up. Every time Zhu Siyuan saw Ning Shu, he pretty much threw himself into her arms.
On the way home, Ning Shu would ask Zhu Siyuan about what he learned today and whether or not he had a good time with the rest of the kids. Zhu Siyuan would always answer her questions one by one. He didn’t seem to dislike going to school as much anymore and he also made some good friends in school.
Occasionally, he’d fight with his classmates, then cry while telling on them to Ning Shu. The current Zhu Siyuan was much more lively compared to before.
Ning Shu was pretty happy to see this. The current Zhu Siyuan was developing in a good direction.
Aside from these things, Ning Shu also worked on preparing tools for herself. She got a very sturdy medicine box, prepared medical scissors, a scalpel, then added a sturdy strap so that she could carry it with her wherever she went. She would be relying on these things to make her living.
In addition, she also prepared a set of acupuncture needles. When the time came, she would need them. Combining Chinese medicine with Western-style treatment had a much better effect.
Ning Shu started collecting Western anti-inflammatory medicine. Occasionally, she’d head to a Chinese pharmacy to buy some herbs to grind into powder. The main purpose of this powder was to quickly staunch bleeding so that it’d buy time for treatment.
She placed the finished powder in the medicine box and made more whenever she had free time to slowly accumulate it. Aside from making golden wound powder, Ning Shu also made poison. However, it wasn’t easy to find the ingredients for making poison so the end products weren’t that good. The toxicity wasn’t very strong.
While Ning Shu was busy with her own affairs, Zhu Yanqiu had spent nearly a month in the hospital and had just been discharged. He was pretty much fully recovered, but during this time period, he had spent quite a lot of money. It was still Fang Feifei who paid the third hospitalization charge for him.
Ning Shu watched as Zhu Yanqiu left the hospital. Her heart was completely tranquil as she watched him walk away with Fang Feifei. They probably wouldn’t encounter each other again.
