Chapter 524 Su Jing’s Departure

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Mother Tian was taken aback by Su Jing’s harsh words, retreating in shock. She had never expected Su Jing to berate her son so brutally. In a fit of rage and humiliation, she lashed out at Su Jing, “If my son is such a disgrace, why were you so desperate to marry into our family? I think you’re the real curse, Su Jing. Ever since my son got involved with you, his luck has only worsened!”

Mother Tian continued her tirade, “Now that you’ve ruined my son, you want to leave him? You’re heartless, a venomous b*tch. Any man who gets involved with you will be cursed! I don’t believe there’s a man in this village who would dare to have you. You’re nothing but a worn-out shoe, and I can’t imagine any man wanting you, not unless they’re blind to your filth…”

Two young men standing behind Mother Tian, fearing the situation might escalate, dragged the cursing woman out of the Su family’s front gate. Yet, Mother Tian seemed addicted to her tirade, continuing to hurl insults at Su Jing even as she was being led away. Her vicious curses drew the attention of passersby, who turned their heads to watch the spectacle.

Su Jing stood at the doorway, not shedding a single tear. She listened to Mother Tian’s foul language until the woman’s figure disappeared from sight and her voice faded away. Su Jing didn’t move an inch.

This was her choice, after all. She had chosen to be with Tian Hai, a worthless man, and she deserved the scorn. She vowed to remember the lesson of this day forever.

Su Shen, being a man, left the house after the Tian family departed. On one hand, he had work to attend to at the pig farm. On the other, he wanted to give Su Jing some space to recover and to talk with Gu Zi. They were both women, and their communication would naturally be more comfortable and less awkward.

Gu Zi understood Su Shen’s intentions. After waiting for a while, she approached Su Jing and led her inside, saying, “Don’t stand here anymore. After today, you and Tian Hai will have nothing to do with each other. We’ve made everything clear, and your brother will stand by your side. Don’t dwell on the unhappy things.”

Su Jing allowed Gu Zi to lead her inside. Gu Zi gently wiped her face and hands with a warm towel. Su Jing was deeply moved. She thought that Gu Zi was the epitome of true gentleness, a strength in itself.

After sitting on the sofa and collecting herself, Su Jing remembered her travel plans. Perhaps, it was time to set off.

She turned to Gu Zi and said, “Sister-in-law, thank you. May I borrow five hundred yuan from you? I’m a bit short on cash, but I need to travel. Could you lend it to me?”

In truth, Su Jing could have asked Su Shen for the money. He would have agreed, hoping it would help her escape the shadow of the Tian family.

But out of respect for Gu Zi, the true mistress of the house, Su Jing chose to borrow the money from her instead of bypassing Gu Zi and asking Su Shen.

Upon hearing Su Jing’s request, Gu Zi didn’t hesitate, saying, “Of course.”

Gu Zi quickly fetched the money and handed it to Su Jing. Su Jing accepted the money and hugged Gu Zi, crying. Her gratitude was evident, even though she didn’t say a word.

In the following days, Su Shen wrote a letter of introduction for Su Jing, and Gu Zi helped her pack her luggage. They went to the city to exchange the necessary food coupons for her journey. Although the use of food coupons was already low in their area, they were still required in many other places to purchase goods. Therefore, it was necessary to exchange them before setting off.

On a bright sunny morning, Gu Zi, holding Su Le, and accompanied by Su Bing and Su Li, bid farewell to Su Jing at the city’s train station. They each hugged Su Jing, watching as she boarded the train alone with her pink suitcase. Su Jing was leaving, leaving them to seek her own life. Gu Zi sent her off with blessings.

After leaving the train station with the children, Gu Zi heard the mechanical “whoo-whoo” sound of the train in the distance. She turned back and could vaguely see a train car moving, its chimney puffing out thick black smoke, signifying the train’s departure.

Su Bing and Su Li followed their mother’s gaze. Su Bing remained silent, while Su Li asked curiously and excitedly, “Mom, is Aunt going to the north? Will she see snow?”

Gu Zi retracted her gaze, holding Su Le and walking forward, saying, “She should be heading north, and she will see snow. When your aunt comes back, you’ll know.”

After all, Su Jing now had a direction in life. Gu Zi looked forward to seeing what Su Jing would become when they met again. She was sure it would be something better…
