Chapter 1866: Just Because She Was Not a Boy?

How could she treat her granddaughter like this? She was a woman too.

After staying in the hospital for three days, An Jinweiʼs mother, this great mother-in-law, tried to get her discharged from the hospital. Three days wasn’t even enough for the stitches to come out yet, but An Jinweiʼs mother rushed to get Ning Shu home for postpartum confinement.

Staying in the hospital was just flushing money down the toilet.

Ning Shu laid on the bed and ignored her. The doctor had to say that the stitches needed to be removed for Ning Shu to be discharged before An Jinwei’s mother stopped trying so hard to get her out of the hospital. Even so, she kept mumbling under her breath about how they were wasting money.

Perhaps it was due to An Jinwei’s previous actions scaring the child, but Nannan cried all night long.

The people in the bed next to them complained, which made An Jinweiʼs mother even more impatient and she directly scolded the child, saying that she was such a troublemaker.

Ning Shu asked her to help change the diaper and wash the babyʼs butt, so that the babyʼs skin wouldn’t become irritated from the urine, but An Jinwei’s mother refused.

Ning Shu doubted whether or not this child was even her granddaughter. What kind of mentality must one have to be so impatient and neglectful towards their own granddaughter?

Nannan was related to her by blood, but was disliked just because she was not a boy?

How did people like An Jinwei’s mother, who valued males over females, still exist in this era? All they were doing was supporting the malignant tumor named ‘feudal ideology.’

When An Jinwei came to see Ning Shu and the child, the child cried so much that An Jinwei got a headache. An Jinwei never stayed the night.

Every time An Jinwei came to the hospital, his mother would tell him to go back, saying that he had to go to work the next day and shouldnʼt tire himself out.

So An Jinwei was just going through the motions and completing the task of visiting Ning Shu and his child every day, not really investing much time or energy.

Ning Shu took a deep breath as she felt dizzy and light-headed. She coaxed the child while lying on her side. She silently mouthed the heart-clearing chant, hoping to calm the childʼs frightened heart.

Ning Shuʼs tears came down as she recited. She didn’t want to cry, but tears still flowed out. A sorrowful and depressed mood enveloped her heart like a dark cloud covering up every beam of light, and she couldn’t drive it away.

Ning Shu raised the corner of her mouth and tried to smile. Even if she cried, she wanted to do so while smiling. Her bodyʼs exhaustion had infected her mind and soul.

Despair was like a virus. First it occupied the body, then invaded the soul.

Ning Shu hummed the heart-clearing chant and gently patted the child with one hand.

The child kept crying, taking short, strenuous breaths, but she still eventually fell asleep.

After the child was asleep, Ning Shu closed her eyes and began cultivating the Unsurpassable Martial Arts. No matter what, her body was the top priority.

She couldn’t do anything without a healthy body. Sweat poured down her like a waterfall, especially since it was summer. She hadnʼt taken a shower since the caesarean section, so she had a strong odor of sweat.

An Jinwei’s mother wasn’t even willing to wipe the child’s butt, so how could she be willing to wipe off Ning Shu’s sweat?

The mother-in-law serving the daughter-in-law? That concept was just too ridiculous.

On the sixth day after giving birth, Ning Shu’s sutures were removed and she was discharged from the hospital.

An Jinwei came to pick up Ning Shu and her daughter and take them home. Ning Shu put on two more layers as well as a coat and hat and covered herself tightly.

If she ended up getting puerperal fever, she would be the one to suffer. No one else would even care.

Back at home, Ning Shu got some water to wipe off her sweat, and then started her postpartum confinement. She would take advantage of this time to plan for the future ahead.

At home, Ning Shu once again experienced the An familyʼs neglect. Women who had just given birth should eat soft and easy-to-digest, nutritious food, but the An family just gave her a bowl of what they were eating: rice and veggies.

Ning Shu sneered. She picked up the bowl and chewed the food carefully. No matter how many others she wronged, she shouldn’t wrong herself.
