Chapter 1126: Doctor, Doctor, Doctor

She had to work hard as well to help Zhu Suniang start a new life, to help her live radiantly in these troubled times.
Ning Shu hugged Zhu Siyuan as she slept and she slept very well that night. She had barely slept on the steamship so she was exhausted.
The next day, Ning Shu bundled Zhu Siyuan up tightly, then left the hotel to start looking for a house. She bought Zhu Siyuan soup dumplings to eat. Zhu Siyuan started eating very happily, then he pressed one of the soup dumplings towards Ning Shu’s mouth while saying in his childish voice, “Mom, eat! Mom, you should eat too!”
Ning Shu’s heart felt pretty warm. Now that she thought about it, this was her second time being a wet nurse. When she recalled that this child had originally grown up to be ignorant and incompetent, she shook her head. She couldn’t allow him to end up that way again.
Although he had done that to anger Zhu Yanqiu, that behavior was still the result of helplessness. Those who were strong and capable wouldn’t use this kind of method to retaliate against someone else.
And it was only because Zhu Siyuan was Zhu Yanqiu’s son that he was able to use this method against him.
In the end, Zhu Suniang and Zhu Siyuan were truly too weak. Zhu Siyuan cared about his mother, that was why Zhu Suniang had wanted to live properly with her child.
The large Shanghai flourished wonderfully. Shops were everywhere like trees in a forest and the display windows exhibited beautiful Western-style dresses and gems. The signboards of disco bars flashed with neon lights and there was an endless stream of cars on the streets. Cabs and cable cars were constantly zooming past and the sound of bicycle bells mixed with the shouts of children selling newspaper.
This was a tolerant and modern city. After Zhu Yanqiu came here, he didn’t want to leave anymore.
Ning Shu wanted to find an apartment to rent so she bought two newspapers from a kid, then asked him if anyone was renting apartments. In the end, the child let them to a tube-shaped apartment. There were a lot of laundry being hung on the balconies. It was a place where crooks were mixed in with the honest folk and the place looked almost like a pig transport cage.
There were so many people crammed in here and they were all hanging out in the small courtyard.
Ning Shu wanted to give Zhu Siyuan a better environment to grow up in.
She looked for an entire day but didn’t find anything. After getting a meal, they headed back to the hotel and paid for another stay.
If you wanted to understand the city, you should read its newspaper. There was a lot of information on the newspaper, and in the city like Shanghai, way too many things happened every day. Every day saw new developments.
There were a bunch of secret societies like the Green Gang and the Heaven and Earth Society. There were also the foreign concession, police department, and all sorts of other powers that created endless opportunities in Shanghai. Anything was possible here.
This city was prosperous but also very disorderly. That was why she was going to have to work extremely hard to protect herself and the child.
She saw on the paper that the hospital was recruiting nurses, so she decided to go try for it. If she didn’t earn money, what would they eat? She only had so much money on her. After she finished using it all, could be that she should become a beggar?
Ning Shu planned to become a doctor. She kissed Zhu Siyuan, then said, “Darling, Mom’s going to become a doctor.”
Zhu Siyuan clapped his hands and repeated her words delightedly. “Doctor, doctor, doctor...”
