Chapter 53 -53 Save it_1
An Jing was bored to distraction when she saw Mrs. Chen coming, and a cold smile crossed her heart.
Previously she dreaded being ruined by her husband, she even wished for his swift death, not wanting to meet him at all; now, however, she repeatedly requested to see him, all because her husband had supposedly made some money and she wanted to get her hands on it.
An Jing looked at Mrs. Chen who didn’t dare to enter the courtyard and said leisurely, “Since you’re so scared that my husband Changyi will ruin you, why come looking for him? Aren’t you afraid that, without getting any money, you’ll end up being ruined?”
Mrs. Chen’s old face flushed red as An Jing blatantly spoke out about her intentions.
Of course, she feared that Changyi would ruin her, but Changyi had gotten rich. Her family was so poor. They thought her younger daughter’s marriage would help, but the daughter scarcely visited once a year during the New Year celebrations, barely giving her any Silver Coin to spend. Now, what her family lacked most was money.
Since that Wretch had it, as his mother, she naturally needed to ask Changyi for it.
Of course, she had planned well. To prevent Changyi from ruining her, even if she met him, she would keep her distance from Changyi before asking him for money. Once she got the money, she would, as before, stop seeing Changyi.
That way, she probably wouldn’t be ruined.
Mrs. Chen planned this but wouldn’t foolishly disclose her plan and instead cursed, “Lin Anjing, if it wasn’t for you throwing yourself at him, that Wretch wouldn’t have wanted you! The fact that Wretch even agreed to marry you, who can’t bear children, just shows no other girl would marry him, so he had to settle for someone like you who no one else wants! One unmarriable, one unwed; together, you really are a perfect match!”
Mrs. Chen always referred to Changyi as Wretch, and listening to this made An Jing quite angry. But since Mrs. Chen was Changyi’s mother after all, An Jing wouldn’t go as far as to slap her and tell her to watch her mouth, right?
Forget it, it’s like listening to a dog barking.
An Jing stood up, intending to return to the inner chamber to sleep for a while. She guessed that by the time she woke up, her husband would have returned from town. As for this mad dog Mrs. Chen, let her bark as long as she wanted.
Seeing An Jing ignore her and walk away, Mrs. Chen grew even angrier. Not daring to enter the courtyard, she could only stamp her foot at the entrance and scream crazily, “Lin Anjing, you lowlife! Quickly call that Wretch out! I’m his own mother, how dare you stop me from seeing him? Come out if you dare, and we’ll see if I don’t beat you to death, you shameless wretch! Not even married yet, and you’re already so insolent. Lin Anjing, be careful that the Wretch doesn’t ruin you after you’re married! Lin Anjing, hurry up—”
Mrs. Chen’s voice was thunderous, causing a commotion of chickens flying and dogs scurrying.

The next-door neighbor to Changyi’s house, upon hearing the noise came out and saw Mrs. Chen in her shrew-like state, said with disdain, “Mrs. Chen, stop yelling! Your yelling has made our chickens fly up! Changyi isn’t at home; I saw him heading towards town this morning. Even if you yell your lungs out, Changyi can’t come out to see you from home, so you might as well save your breath!”
Seeing other villagers stopping by and watching her like a spectacle, Mrs. Chen realized she was embarrassing herself. She stomped her foot again and then walked away head down, teeth clenched.
“He must have gotten rich, and she wants to ask him for money,” a villager scornfully said.
“Isn’t that so,” another villager agreed, watching Mrs. Chen’s retreating figure with contempt. “She previously didn’t even dare to see Changyi, almost wishing he’d die soon so that he wouldn’t ruin her and she could be at peace, yet now she personally turns up at the door.”
