Chapter 1873: The Woman’s Role
Ning Shu used all of her energy to repair the incision in her abdomen.
An incision needed to be made in order for the child to be born safely. If a man were to see it, he’d probably be scared senseless.
Carrying a child for ten months and then giving birth was a painful ordeal, yet men still thought that was how it should be. The woman’s role was to give birth, raise children, and solve the man’s physiological needs. Other than that, she had no purpose, and had no need for an independent life.
Thanks to the energy she had gotten from cultivating, her wound healed really quickly. Now she could move around the house without any problems.
This didn’t mean that Ning Shu would be a busybody and find work for herself though. If she had to be in confinement, she would do so comfortably. She definitely wouldn’t recover quickly, only to serve her family when she was better.
The key point was that they wouldn’t be grateful even if she served them.
Ning Shu looked at the child in the crib and sighed.
An Jinwei’s mother had finished making food so she knocked on Ning Shu’s door. She had cooked a pot of meat that Ning Shu ate completely clean. An Jinwei’s mother was left stunned.
Ning Shu hiccuped as she slowly digested the meal and a warm feeling spread throughout her body.
“All take and no give. You eat a lot while doing nothing. What other daughter-in-law is like you? It must have taken our An family eight lifetimes’ worth of bad luck to end up with a daughter-in-law like you.” An Jinwei’s mother couldn’t help but scold her.
The relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was quite strained. None of the other family members liked her either.
Because she wasn’t obedient or virtuous, and she was a troublemaker.
Ning Shu turned a deaf ear to the scolding. She closed the bedroom door and changed the child’s diaper before continuing to cultivate.
Due to the earlier events, An Jinwei was quite dissatisfied with Ning Shu. He stopped entering the bedroom and slept in a different room. He was trying to torment Ning Shu by giving her the silent treatment.
At the same time, it was because there was a child in the bedroom along with a woman who didn’t bathe often during confinement and breastfeeding. The smell was really unpleasant. The child would also wake up several times a night, so he couldn’t rest well at all.
Ning Shu didn’t care about An Jinwei’s attitude. He could do whatever he liked. Who wanted to sleep on the same bed as him? Without him sleeping next to her, she could just cultivate even more.
This was the silent treatment that the An Family liked to use the most. Once they were dissatisfied with you, they would ignore you and have terrible attitudes towards you. It made the whole family fall into a depressing environment until one day, it was too much to bear and you admitted your mistakes.
Early the next day, the An family took Ning Shu to check her mental state and see if her hair-trigger temper was because of a mental illness.
Probably because it was related to the family’s future plans, but this time, An Jinwei’s father went with them.
Their family of three walked in front and Ning Shu walked behind with a stroller. It was clear that they were a family and she was an outsider.
She felt that Chen Ning’s entire purpose in the family was to serve them.
Despite this, the An family still acted aloof. She didn’t have a job, so the An family was providing for her. Doing housework was seen as her duty as a daughter-in-law.
Who asked you to rely on the An family to support you?
For goodness sake, it was like the An family was keeping a servant without even giving her a salary!
The group drove to the hospital and went to the obstetrics and gynecology department.
The doctor inquired about Ning Shu’s condition.
“How do you feel?”
“I feel tired and like I want to cry. I feel sad for no reason. I can’t control my temper and I’m very irritable and depressed. I’m also worried about my child’s health and future. ”
