She Only Cares About Cultivation

"Don’t come over, if you do, I’ll... I’ll... I’ll throw Xue at you!"

Looking at her sister-in-law’s burly and crude appearance, An Yi swept her gaze with disgust at these two sets of scoundrels.

"Anyone else dissatisfied, come at me. Stop taking it out on my two little sisters. Today, I’m telling you clearly, their money and food are all under my control. Why? Because I’m taking care of them! Just look at my sisters—from top to bottom, inside and out—where aren’t they better than when they were with your family? That’s their year’s worth of rations. Even if they go out to work, wouldn’t they need to eat? Eight taels of food a day, how dare you beasts behave like rabid dogs and rush to take it? Don’t you have your own food?"

"Those who say I’m taking their wages and food, I have nothing to say to you. Think what you want, but anyone with a brain can do the math and knows who’s really losing out and who’s benefiting. After all, the money they earn now is only enough for their own living. We’ve cut ties. Back then, it was public in the village. Even if you go to the province, we’re not at fault. We won’t put our lives at risk to support you!"

"Also, don’t blame me for not reminding you, your two daughters were driven by you to jump into the river and commit suicide. The ones here now are my sisters whom I rescued from the river; they are reborn as my dear sisters. From now on, they will rely on me, An Yi! Stop claiming relations here!"

"Oh, and next spring we’re changing our names. We won’t keep the old surname. Otherwise, you’ll cling to them forever like a group of bloodsucking leeches. Bah, what are you? You don’t even see yourself what you are with your antics daring to show off in front of us?"

An Yi glanced at the stunned Qiuxia and Caihua: "What are you waiting for? Now’s your chance for revenge, grievances to be avenged. I guarantee they’re not gonna move an inch. Go ahead, make them remember it today, and see who dares to act wild in front of our An family!"

Caihua was the first to react. She charged towards her sister-in-law and sister-in-law’s daughters, sat on them, and slapped them left and right. The crackling sound left everyone present dumbfounded. Only when she was exhausted did she stand up and turn to An Yi.

An Yi nodded, and both looked towards Qiuxia. Qiuxia silently walked up to her sister-in-law’s daughters, kicked them in the face, and spat at each of them. As expected, under An Yi’s restraint, no one dared to move a muscle and obediently took their revenge.

Then she coldly turned to their mother: "I’m not hitting you because at the end of the day, you gave birth to them. Today, you made a move, so I don’t care what happened before, but from now on, if you dare touch An Yi’s sisters, don’t blame me for being rude. Respect for elders is conditional; I offer it once, twice, but there won’t be a third time. I can refrain from hitting you, but with so many descendants in your family, I can mess with any one of them for the biggest revenge against you. Believe it or not?"

An Yi’s gaze was so icy that it made the two old women instinctively tremble; An Yi coldly snorted.

"Bullies, remember, second chances don’t exist eternally. Don’t let me catch you bullying her again, or I’ll make sure you regret your actions today!"

Then she coldly turned away, not even glancing at the two behind.

"What are you looking at? Shameful wretches. I just stepped out, and you made a mess of yourselves. Hurry up and come home with me to treat those injuries? Shut the door, everyone out!"

The words An Yi said were so decisive that who dared to defy them? Everyone was frightened by her imposing and fearless actions today; the strength she casually showed with her pen was overwhelming. Who would’ve thought that someone who looks frail would harbor such terrifying explosiveness?

Protecting siblings like this, it seems Qiuxia and Caihua have truly won her favor. With Teacher An shielding them, their later years won’t be troubled. Being with the right person is far luckier than being born into the wrong family!

Everyone stared in shock as Caihua locked the door, watching the two sisters follow behind An Yi who was holding An’an, like children who had done something wrong. Their exchanged glances were filled with envy—a question lingered, why wasn’t it themselves who were saved instead of Qiuxia and Caihua?
