Chapter 516 Cough up the dowry.　　Zhang Xiaohui didn’t even hesitate while answering the question which caused everyone in the village to believe her. If she did something wrong then obviously she would have some guilty conscience like An Xia and Grandma Lin but she outright said that she was willing to get a check-up done, what does it mean? It meant that Zhang Xiaohui had done nothing wrong and it was An Xia and grandma Li who were framing her. Instantly those eyes that were brimming with disdain towards Zhang Xiaohui divulged from their original target and locked on An Xia’s frail body. 

The women who were just scolding Zhang Xiaohui in their heads clicked their tongues and wantonly scolded An Xia.

”Tsk, Tsk, I knew it. We have been with Zhang Xiaohui for so long but that woman has never looked in the direction of any other man much less have an affair with someone, clearly, someone is dripping with mud but instead of cleaning her reputation, she is throwing dirt at someone else.”

” If not? That woman looks like a vixen through and through, no matter how you look at her. Compared to her sly seductress like beauty, our Xiaohui is way too honest no wonder, she suffered so much. Not only does she has to take care of her fields and her useless husband, but she also needs to sew her lips and suffer her mother in law’s tyranny silently.”

One of the women who knew An Xia very ‘intimately’ twisted her hips and spoke up conspiratorially, ” Look at her small face and those cat-like eyes, no wonder Brother Ze fell for her. Tsk, tsk.. with her looks alone, who knows how many men she might have already rolled around with, it’s not like she has to care about anything right? No husband and no reputation, it’s perfect for women who like to seduce other woman’s men and open business.” 

This woman had a personal feud with An Xia ever since she caught An Xia and her husband rolling in the fields. Her husband was honestly looking but his control was worse than that of philanders, An Xia just had to bat her eyelids and twist and turn her waist, and soon she hooked her husband. This woman only found out about their affairs, after she realised that the savings in her house were sharply plummeting. That was when she followed her husband and witnessed that shocking scene, at that time she remained silent because she was afraid of facing criticism from the villagers and her son was too old for her to divorce her husband.

However, so what? She might have to stay silent for so long but she can finally vent the anger she has been suppressing so long for!  The village woman sneered, prepared to milk this opportunity to the most. ” Look at her expensive clothes and the way she dresses. Do you think that any woman with a humble background can afford these luxuries? Even with a husband by my side, I can’t think about having such nice clothes and what’s more this woman is a widow.”

As soon as the woman said this, all the eyes turned to An Xia whose eyes turned, at this moment she couldn’t even defend herself, so she was left with no choice but to accept her affair with Lin Ze if she didn’t who knows what else this woman might dig out. And there was nothing wrong with what she did, it wasn’t as if she did anything illegal, she didn’t commit any arson or murder- so why will she be afraid? She might end up offending a few villagers but that was something she has never cared about before. 

Thus, she took a breath and sharply strode forward as she said, ” So, what if I had an affair with Brother Ze? I didn’t do anything wrong, he was the one who pursued me first and asked me to be his lover. If you don’t believe me just ask anyone who lives on the outskirts of the village, I never once went ahead and threw myself in his arms. It was him, who came to me and said that he liked me and wanted to stay with me.”

” If you want to blame someone then blame this woman she was too stupid, she fought with her husband every day and wouldn’t let him have a moment of peace? So, he looked for someone else who can give him peace, what did I do wrong in this? Brother Ze was the one who said that he will divorce his wife and marry me as his legal wife, so why are you all poking your nose in my business?”

In short, she was unrepentant.

Su Wan who has heard the exact same things when she confronted Su Lan and her bastard of ex-husband, the two of them said the same thing. Thus, she wasn’t even surprised by these shameless words, she nodded. ” You are right, there is nothing wrong with what you did, a man came to you and despite knowing that he has a wife you took him in and even watched him bully his wife without saying a thing, of course since you didn’t directly do anything, you have no qualms about it right?”

” That’s right!” An Xia didn’t even bother to deny it, she nodded her head as she resolutely said, ” You are very right, I watched everything silently but so what? Even this woman’s kids didn’t come in her support and watched their father beat her silently. So why I am the one in the wrong? Did I ask Brother Ze to pursue me? No. Did I ask him to beat her? No. I didn’t even ask him to divorce her! Instead, she was the one who insists on getting a divorce! I am still willing to leave together with her like sisters. Together we can take care of Brother Ze more properly.”

Su Wan suddenly had an urge to laugh, was every mistress this shameless? These things were exactly what Su Lan said, she stood by her husband and said that she fell in love with him without intending to and she wished to stay by his side even if her husband didn’t give her a title. All of this was nothing but bullshit, her eyes sharpened as she looked at the woman with a mocking smile, ” Really? How nice. But I am afraid that if Aunt Zhang stayed with you, she will end up as nothing but a bag of bones. In just a few months you reduced her into her family’s punching bag who knows what will happen to her in case she stayed with you.” She paused at this point and stared at An Xia then she further added as she enunciated each word, ” Do you even have the slightest bit of conscience while saying this?”

An Xia’s heart quivered, she did not expect this little wretched girl to have such a formidable aura. Just her gaze was enough to cause her heart to have a jump scare.  In the face of Su Wan’s questioning, there was nothing An Xia could say, she pursed her lips tightly and didn’t answer.

It was true that Su Wan could do nothing to An Xia, she just wanted the villagers to see that behind her sweet and charming words, there hid a hideous woman.  In the future, everyone will have their own consideration about how they should treat this woman.

There was no need for her to say anything more. 

At this moment Grandma Lin who was standing by An Xia’s side obediently finally snapped out of her daze. Right now, she was too flustered and made a mistake, now she needs to correct it. Anyone’s reputation can be ruined but not her grandson’s, the latter was yet to be born, she can’t let others call him a bastard.

She jumped up and sneered. ” What does a young girl like you know? This is this slut’s own fault. Was there any need for her to act so pettily? Why can’t she just stay silent and share her husband with Xiaxia nicely? It’s not like that my son can’t have more than one wife. This is her retribution for not treating my son nicely. If she won’t treat her husband in a good manner then obviously someone else will do for her.”

Village head Luo had heard enough of Old madam Lin’s nonsense. He pinched his brows and looked at Zhang Xiaohui as he asked, ” are you sure you want a divorce?”

As he asked this, Lin Ze’s scream came from inside his room everyone’s heart quivered but Zhang Xioahui’s heart only turned even more cold, just a few hits and he was screaming like this- when he beat her every night until she fell unconscious what about it? She ignored the painful screams of her husband and nodded resolutely, ” I want a divorce.”

The entire surroundings turned silent and then- 

” Fine, you want a divorce, you will get a divorce! Take your things and get lost!” snapped Grandma Lin

  Zhang Xiaohui pursed her lips and was going to turn around to get her clothes when Su Wan stopped her. ” Wait a minute, there is something else.”

Grandma Lin felt like she might have offended some gods in her past life that she met Su Wan in this life. This girl was out for her blood! ” What else is there to say, you little-” bitch, she wanted to curse Su Wan out loud but then two pointed glares were aimed at her and her mouth snapped close involuntarily.

Su Wan smiled sweetly, however she was the kind of woman whose smile was more dangerous than her anger. Which was why she was called ‘smiling tigress’ by her husbands. She crossed her arms and carelessly shrugged. ” what do you mean by get lost who will cough out the dowry and money that Aunt Zhang brought with her.”
