ABSTRACT
In “Libra Scales,” Mrs. Li makes ends meet by living with her husband and her lover. Li Jia’s Libra scale has never been crooked. Really, never crooked. When silver is heavier than the balance scale weights, for her man’s tender feelings she would pack two dollars in his pocket. If the scale weight is heavier than silver, she could once again present her two seductive faces to her lover. For sure, let it be commensurate, totally and exactly commensurate. On this occasion, it is herself who didn’t plan it precisely. Looking for a playing card, she can’t find Zhang’s. If she did, she should have first shut that little bitch’s mouth. She can’t let the Libra scale grow crooked. A crooked, pressured heart is difficult to bear. Moreover, she is in her forties! And she has children.
