Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 564

Chapter 564: Chapter 564: The Feeling of Turning the Tables

Lin Chuxia casually asked about her situation. Even though Huamei Mall is extremely busy during the year-end period, if Jiang Hong wanted to request leave to go back to her hometown, Wang Tianxue would still approve it for her.

After all, last year, Jiang Hong didn’t return home for the New Year because she was heavily pregnant.

Jiang Hong already had plans. "I’m definitely not going back home for the New Year. You have no idea; Manager Wang mentioned earlier that anyone who stays to work at the mall during those days will get an extra bonus. Even without this bonus, our Huamei Mall earns commissions from selling clothes. You have no idea; so many people have been coming in to buy clothes lately as if our clothes are free. Thanks to our large stock from before, but even so, many styles are sold out. I’ve calculated that the salary I can earn this month is double that of any other month. No way I’m going to waste such a good opportunity to make money. I told my Li Wei if he wants to go home for the New Year, he can go alone and also take his mom and son with him. I’m staying here to make money."

As she spoke, she scooted closer to Lin Chuxia. "I previously mentioned working at your place, but he just thought I was bored and didn’t take my earning potential seriously. Guess what happened when last month’s salary was issued?"

Lin Chuxia blinked with curiosity, and Jiang Hong smiled triumphantly.

"Last month, I earned 82 yuan, and Li Wei’s salary was only 80 yuan, two less than mine. You should have seen Li Wei’s face, as if I was lying to him. He refused to believe I earned that 82 yuan and accused me of borrowing money from my colleagues to deceive him. I threw the payslip in his face, and after looking at it twice, he finally believed that I can not only earn money but earn more than him. Oh, after so many years, I finally got to relish in a bit of pride. And not just that, ever since then, if I get off work late, he would come to the mall to pick me up. He even started helping with reheating meals at home. Chuxia, you have no idea—to have him set foot in the kitchen is a miracle. Even when I was pregnant and couldn’t stand the smell of cooking oil, he would still only bring food back from the cafeteria. I never thought one day he’d actually cook for me. Oh, the feeling of turning the tables..."

Lin Chuxia was also amused by her demeanor.

"I’ve come to understand that the economic foundation really determines the superstructure. So, I’m not going home for the New Year; I’ll just stay in Yan City and earn a lot of money, buy whatever I want, and never rely on those stinky men again."

"You have ambition," Lin Chuxia gave her a thumbs-up. "In the end, did Li Wei actually take your mother-in-law and son back home?"

Jiang Hong chuckled again in satisfaction. "No way, let me tell you something you might laugh at," she looked around before lowering her voice to Lin Chuxia’s ear, "he’s worried that if he leaves me here alone, I’ll be snatched away by another man. Lately, he’s been acting weird, not even letting me wear new clothes to work. When he sees me in new clothes with lipstick, he gives me the glare, as if I’m out there cheating on him. He should really think it over; look at me—with a kid and everything—what man would be interested?"

Lin Chuxia just smiled without saying anything. Naturally friendly, Jiang Hong quickly got along with her colleagues in the mall.

The salesgirls in the mall are mostly young and fashionable, so she’s changed quite a bit with them.

And since she deals with clothes all day, her fashion sense has definitely improved from before.

Just look at her outfit today—she stands out wherever she is.

With a wife like her and also a wife who can make money, it’s only natural for Li Wei to feel a sense of crisis.

That’s why they say women should always be self-reliant and independent, not just clinging to someone like a morning glory, so the other side will always be on edge.

Lin Chuxia, carrying the preserved plums Jiang Hong brought, grabbed her luggage and headed straight to Qin’s Restaurant to pick up Little Ningning.

Ningning was already on winter break and usually spent most of her time at Old Mrs. Jia’s. When she heard they were going back to Qin Family Village early, the little girl was overjoyed, quickly packing her bag and clothes, waiting at the restaurant for Lin Chuxia to pick her up.

Before Lin Chuxia’s jeep even parked at the restaurant entrance, the little girl had already run out.

Qin Juan and Jia Liang followed behind, constantly reminding her to slow down, but she didn’t decrease her speed at all.
