Chapter 758: Life Is Seriously Hard When There Are No Guidelines

In response to An Yus concern, Ning Shu just smiled then looked towards Shen s.h.i.+. Shen s.h.i.+ had both hands on her clutch as she leaned on it while considering this, then she nodded and said, Alright. You should rest up well. For the time being, Ill teach An Lingyun how to manage the household.

Ning Shu struggled to get up, then opened the drawer to take out the ledger and the key to the storehouse. She placed them on the table, then said, Ill have you trouble you, Grandmother.

Shen s.h.i.+ nodded, then had An Lingyun take the ledger and key. When she made to stand, the maid next to her immediately moved to a.s.sist her.

Shen s.h.i.+ then said a few more words of comfort to Ning Shu like telling her to focus on recovering and that An You was fine so she shouldnt make herself sick from worry.

Ning Shu just nodded, maintaining a respectful and obedient att.i.tude in front of Shen s.h.i.+. An Lingyun hugged the ledger as she said, Mother, Ill help carry over your meal.

Ning Shu smiled. Alright.

Once the group left, Ning Shu had Zhu Er close the door. Im going to sleep for a while. Dont bother me no matter who it is that comes.

Zhu Er nodded, then closed the door and stayed outside the door to guard the room.

Ning Shu sat cross-legged on the bed. The original host had managed the generals residence neatly and skillfully. Every expense and income was logged meticulously and all the records would be given to Shen s.h.i.+ to look over. Whenever the original host encountered some large expense, she would consult Shen s.h.i.+ beforehand.

Rather than say Wei Lingxian was the one managing the generals residence, itd be more accurate to say that Shen s.h.i.+ possessed the true power over the household.

Shen s.h.i.+ felt that she understood everything about this daughter-in-law of hers. Meanwhile, for the sake of this family, Wei Lingxian harbored zero selfishness and looked after her mother-in-law with full filial respect.

Shen s.h.i.+ was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law, so when her son didnt take any mistresses, she didnt say anything. This made Wei Lingxian feel even more respect and love for Shen s.h.i.+.

An You was often sent on campaigns, so Wei Lingxian interacted with her mother-in-law even more than she interacted with her husband. They were like true family, but when things involved her own son, Shen s.h.i.+ abandoned Wei Lingxian.

In reality, this was something that didnt even require consideration.

However, Ning Shu had no desire to work to the bone for this generals residence while everyone else just enjoyed the fruits of her labors. Everything here had been in perfect order. Those who were hungry had food, those who were thirsty could immediately get warm water, and the clothes were fresh and clean every single day.

This environment was brought about by the original hosts careful hard work, but in the end, all of these people pointed at her and called her deranged and malicious.

Those who were fed and content only became spoiled, so this time, they can just deal with things themselves.

Ning Shu started practicing the Unsurpa.s.sable Martial Arts, but there wasnt much result. However, with the help of the calmness halo, she was no longer affected by the original hosts emotions as much.

The original host harbored a lot of intense resentment and sorrow. Ning Shu sighed. When a persons heart was no longer with you, no matter what you did, it was to no avail.

Ning Shu really had no clue how to go about this task. Should she take revenge on An You and Princess Mingzhu? On everyone thats hurt Wei Lingxian?

But the people that hurt Wei Lingxian were all the people she cared about the most? However, if she didnt do anything, how was she supposed to complete this task?

Ning Shu realized that even though she had become Wei Lingxian, there was no guarantee that shed be able to deal with this situation any better than Wei Lingxian had.

Forget it, shell just have to deal with things as they came. The main issue was that there was Princess Mingzhu, this pure, wonderful, and innocent true love to deal with.

Princess Mingzhu was the daughter of a prince and the niece of the current emperor. In this feudal society in which the lives of the imperial family were on par with that of deities, dealing with a n.o.ble status princess and making the princess suffer while keeping up her own reputation of being virtuous was going to be a bit hard.

The original host was originally a virtuous wife skilled at housekeeping who supported the entire family, but due to Princess Mingzhu, she ended up being labeled as malicious and envious for tormenting Princess Mingzhu. Meanwhile, Princess Mingzhus act of enduring everything silently and remaining kind ended up obtaining the sympathy of everyone in the generals residence.

Ning Shu:

It was unbelievably irritating. This task was seriously b.a.l.l.s-breaking.

There was no direction at all, and Ning Shu couldnt get a handle on what the original host felt towards An You. Was it hatred, love, or a mix of both?

Life was seriously hard when there were no guidelines.
