80s: The Rough Villain's Beautiful Wife is Reborn

Chapter 8 Don't like me? Peep at me again!
It was said that Shang Xiaojun was forced to kneel down and not given any food.

Not really doing that.

During the meal, Du Juan gave a few more words of advice, and Shang Rong let her son get up.

Shang Rong still loves her son Shang Xiaojun very much. She only let Du Juan eat the big bowl of braised pork and didn't touch it herself, leaving it for Shang Xiaojun.

"Auntie, you eat too. This meat is so delicious. You are such a great cook."

Du Juan put a large piece of meat into Shang Rong's bowl.

She liked Shang Rong very much and felt that she was an intellectual and sensible person of culture, completely different from the old women Du Juan usually met.

The two talked for a while and were already chatting away.

While eating the meat in the bowl, Shang Rong smiled. She liked Du Juan more and more and started to talk to her about some family matters.

It turns out that Shang Rong was a chef in a state-owned restaurant when she was young. No wonder her cooking skills are so good.

Her eyes have been injured for more than ten years. Over the years, she has adapted to this blurry state. Although she can't even see people clearly, she has no problem in her life and can do all the housework.

After dinner, Shang Rong asked her son to wash the dishes and asked Du Juan if she wanted to rest and sleep in her room for a while.

Du Juan: "No need, auntie, I have something else to do and will be leaving soon."

It's about walking, not just going out.

Du Juan needs a stable place to settle down, but she has no relationship with Shang Xiaojun, so it is not suitable for her to live here.

Shang Rong also understood.

"Then sit for a while. When Xiaojun is done, let him accompany you out."

Shang Rong poured tea for Du Juan and took out some peanuts. Then she went to the room to get two hundred yuan and went to the kitchen to find her son.

Shang Xiaojun had already cleaned up the kitchen and was filling it with water, preparing to take a shower before going out.

He hadn't taken a shower for half a month and he could even smell the odor.

Shang Rong handed the money to her son.

"I think she has nowhere else to go. I was going to give this money to the Du family so that they can write a letter of forgiveness and ask for a lighter sentence for you. It's no longer needed now, so take it and give it to her when you have the chance."

Shang Xiaojun nodded.

Shang Rong sighed again, "I think Du Juan is a really good kid, but it's a pity that she has no interest in you. In this case, when you're done with your work, you can find her a guesthouse to stay in temporarily, and then see if there's a suitable house nearby to find her one.

Although I think it's best for you two to be together, it depends on what the other person thinks. If she doesn't like you, she can't live in our house. It's not good for her reputation."

It's rare that there are people who look down on me.

Shang Xiaojun laughed.

"Mom, I don't think we can use this house anymore."

Shang Rong: "Why can't she use it? Didn't she have a falling out with her family?"

Shang Xiaojun didn't explain anything, just said: "Okay, I'll arrange it, don't worry."

After taking a shower, Shang Xiaojun pushed his bicycle and took Du Juan out.

The well-groomed Shang Erhunzi reached a new level of handsomeness. Smelling the faint scent of soap, Du Juan couldn't help but look at him twice more.

Even though I had seen him for decades in my previous life, I couldn't help but sigh now that this man was really good-looking, so my son also became as handsome as a big star when he grew up.

Having a son with him, even if nothing works out for us, I feel like I haven't lost out.

Du Juan smiled and was in a good mood.

Beside him, Shang Xiaojun glanced at her subtly and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

You look down on me, so why are you peeking at me?

The two of them came to the main road outside. Du Juan said, "I want to go to Hongyun Hotel and ask the staff on duty that day to find out what happened at that time."

Hongyun Hotel is where the accident happened between them and where Du Juan worked.

Shang Xiaojun: "Tell me what you want to ask first. I know everything the police station has learned."

What is there to ask?

That morning when her sister-in-law Ma Lizhen broke into the room, claiming to be looking for someone, the two of them were still lying in bed, not even awake.

Needless to say, what happened next was that her helpless crying and screaming made everyone think that they had committed a crime and bullied her.

Shang Xiaojun was originally a well-known bully in the county. Although it was the first time he bullied a young girl, his image as a bully had taken root in everyone's mind, and many things were taken for granted.

At that time, the Du family asked for a dowry of 2,000 yuan, and they had to raise it within three days, which Shang Xiaojun simply couldn't afford.

In that era, a worker's salary was just over 100 yuan, and a villager would only spend 500 or 600 yuan to marry a wife, plus some betrothal gifts.

If the conditions are good, the worst that can happen is eight hundred or one thousand yuan.

The Du family needs 2,000 yuan in cash, but who can come up with that unless they are a millionaire?

Du Juan: "I just want to know why I was in your room that night. My sister-in-law drugged me at the time, and she didn't want to blame you, but Boss Zhou who often came to the dance hall."

In her previous life, Du Juan followed the father and son for decades, but she always focused on her son. Only when she accidentally heard about the things about them would she go out with Shang Xiaojun.

So much so that she never figured out this matter.

But it is very important.

Because besides Ma Lizhen, there might be someone secretly trying to harm her, which led to such a change.

The only dance hall in the county is located downstairs of Hongyun Hotel.

The dance halls of this era were the KTVs of later generations, but they were not as high-end. They had a hall and several rooms, and were mainly places for ballroom dancing, eating and drinking.

The market has just been opened up in recent years, and new things have poured in from outside. Places like dance halls are especially popular among wealthy people and young men and women.

Du Juan's sister-in-law Ma Lizhen works as the head chef in the kitchen of a dance hall because she can cook some snacks and Western food. She has been working there for more than half a year and is doing quite well.

She was also the one who introduced Du Juan to the job at the hotel.

At first, Ma Lizhen wanted her to work as a waitress in a dance hall, but Du Juan didn't want to do it because there were too many people and it was too mixed, and she was afraid.

At that time, Ma Lizhen scolded her for being useless.

Later, Du Juan went to work as a cleaner in the hotel upstairs, cleaning and washing sheets.

Du Juan knew in her previous life that her sister-in-law Ma Lizhen had bad thoughts about her.

Ever since that person married into the Du family, he always instilled in her the idea that she should know how to enjoy life and that it’s enough to have money.

At that time, Du Juan just thought that she had problems with her thinking and was too materialistic.

I never thought that she would send herself to someone else's bed for money.

Of course, she was also too stupid and naive at the time.

"Boss Zhou? Are you talking about Zhou Tianqing?"

Shang Xiaojun frowned, obviously hearing it for the first time.

He also knew about Boss Zhou, a Hong Kong businessman who was invited by the county to invest. He looked to be in his 40s or 50s, with a greasy face and a big belly. He wore a gold ring and a gold necklace, was very generous, and often took women to the nightclub to eat, drink and dance.

It turns out that Ma Lizhen's target is him!

Shang Xiaojun thought that the Du family had set up this trap in order to blackmail him.

Du Juan: "Yes. She had discussed it with Boss Zhou in advance, and they had agreed on the price."
