Back to the 1980s: Transmigrated as the Bigshot's Pampered Wife Chapter 570: Like Bees to a Flower
"My husband was the one who told . He was just shocked, since the Su family has always been so poor."
"How could you suddenly beco wealthy? So, he asked around and found all that out."
Hu ili gazed in the direction Su Shuochi had vanished, her heart filled with jealousy for his wife.
’Why does she get a good family background while I have nothing? That’s why she could marry Brother Su, and I was stuck marrying an old man.’
"No wonder Mom and Dad get all smiley whenever they talk about my sister-in-law. Turns out her family is rich!"
Su Eri said with a look of disbelief, but she already believed it deep down. She was even starting to plot how she could get on her sister-in-law’s good side.
"Of course it’s true. Since when does my husband need to lie?" Hu ili said, then sighed again.
"Sister-in-law, you’ve had a tough ti these past two years. It’s all my parents’ fault. Now everything will be okay. As long as Brother Su gives you more money, my parents will go back to treating you well."
"Not necessarily! Two months ago, my mom sent a lot of money, food, and clothes, but my mother-in-law’s attitude toward didn’t change one bit!"
Su Eri complained with great dissatisfaction. Little did she know, human greed is insatiable.
Reality is often crueler. Once people get used to exploiting and bullying soone, they beco addicted to it.
The Hu family had exactly this ntality. Su Eri had finally been broken by them, shedding her previously defiant nature and becoming soone they could tornt as they pleased.
No matter how much she scraped together from her own family, it was never enough to satisfy them, so they continued to tornt her.
If Su Shuochi hadn’t returned to Shuanghe Village, Su Eri’s situation would never have changed.
She would never have received any kindness from the Hu family. But with Su Shuochi’s return, things were different.
The Hu family was afraid of Su Shuochi. Even if he didn’t give his sister any money, they wouldn’t dare bully her anymore.
After hearing her sister-in-law’s words, Hu ili lowered her head impassively, fiddling with her fingers as if she were embarrassed.
But inside, she was darkly trying to coax Su Eri. ’As long as Brother Su takes a liking to , I’ll help you by putting in a good word with Mom and Dad.’
Hearing Hu ili’s promise, Su Eri was overjoyed, but on the surface, she pretended to be conflicted.
"Sigh, I don’t know how to get my big brother to notice you, but if you need anything, I’ll help you."
What Su Eri was really thinking at that mont was sothing Hu ili could never have guessed.
Because her sister-in-law was rich, she was now plotting how to get on her good side and would never betray her big brother.
If Hu ili were to tell Su Eri her plan, Su Eri would betray her without a mont’s hesitation.
But Hu ili didn’t know what her sister-in-law was thinking. She couldn’t help but smile when she heard Su Eri’s words.
’I knew it,’ she thought. ’Su Eri is a selfish person who only cares about herself.’
At that thought, anger flared within her. ’Why won’t Brother Su even look at ? Am I really that bad?’
’No way. I have to make Brother Su fall for !’
So, she quietly whispered her plan to Su Eri, going on and on about how she needed her help.
It shocked Su Eri so much she almost jumped. ’This Hu ili is so shaless! I’ll tell my brother the mont he gets ho tonight.’
The two sisters-in-law, each with their own ulterior motives, plotted happily...
anwhile, Su Shuochi had just reached the entrance of Shuanghe Village when he saw Han Jinghong drive up in his family’s car, casually dressed.
"Brother Su, get in, quick." Han Jinghong opened the car door in a warm invitation.
Looking at the beaming young man, Su Shuochi asked in confusion, "What are you doing here?"
Han Jinghong grinned. "Brother Su, I’ll tell you after you get in the car."
Seeing this, Su Shuochi didn’t overthink it and got into the car. He was in a hurry anyway, and taking a car would be much faster.
"Han Jinghong, what are you doing here so early?" Su Shuochi asked curiously as he fastened his seatbelt.
"I ca especially to pick you up and take you to the county seat for so fun."
"Are we that close? For you to co all this way to pick up," Su Shuochi asked noncommittally.
He had already guessed that the Han family might have figured out his identity. After all, the person sent to handle the case this ti was Han Jingshen.
That man was deep and unfathomable. They hadn’t been on the sa team before, but Su Shuochi had heard of his reputation—as brave and fearless as himself.
’I guess one mountain can’t hold two tigers.’
Han Jingshen always seed to have a strange hostility towards him. He had sensed it during the two tis they t in the Imperial City.
Seeing that Han Jinghong just smiled without answering, Su Shuochi casually asked, "Where are you taking ?"
Han Jinghong just turned his head and gave a mysterious smile. "You’ll know when we get there, Brother Su."
Hearing this, Su Shuochi didn’t press further. He knew that if soone didn’t want to talk, questioning them wouldn’t necessarily get a truthful answer.
The car started, heading toward the county seat. Su Shuochi looked out the window. The once barren hills and wilderness had been replanted with evergreen pines.
’If I raised chickens and ducks in these mountain forests, then...’
Han Jinghong didn’t take Su Shuochi to the Han family’s ho but instead drove directly to the largest dance hall in the county seat.
He wanted to properly entertain this big shot, so he had even sought advice from his usual group of buddies.
In the end, they concluded that the best way to entertain soone was to take them to a dance hall.
Su Shuochi assud Han Jingshen was inside, so he didn’t refuse. ’A crowded, chaotic place like this is a perfect spot for us to et,’ he thought.
Han Jinghong nearly whistled. ’So Brother Su is into this sort of thing!’ he thought. ’Looks like my ass-kissing finally hit the mark.’
Little did he know, his attempt at flattery had completely backfired.
This was the largest dance hall in Yunhe County. The interior was usually dim, and the decor was rather simple.
A few strings of lights hung over the plain concrete floor, flashing even in broad daylight.
Although the dance hostesses inside were dressed quite fashionably, the townspeople’s attire was still relatively plain.
So in Su Shuochi’s eyes, it was all very average. But he didn’t care. He wasn’t into this stuff anyway.
’Besides, no one is as beautiful as my wife.’
The dance halls here didn’t have luxurious decorations or stage facilities; most were just simple spaces for people’s entertainnt.
Nevertheless, the people in the dance hall were full of excitent, and many chose partner dancing as the main style.
Moreover, the ticket price was low—only fifty cents per person—and if a man bought a ticket, won got in for free.
After all, the won and girls in the county seat were different from those in the countryside. Outside of their eight-hour workdays, most of their ti was their own.
They weren’t like rural won who worked from dawn till dusk in the collective, only to co ho to feed the children, pigs, and chickens.
So there was no shortage of ladies in the dance hall. It was hard to tell if they were married or not, which made it a tempting destination for n of all ages.
The mont Su Shuochi stood in the crowd, he was like a crane among chickens. Not only did he make the eyes of several professional dance hostesses light up,
but even the daughters of rich families who had co for fun found their eyes sparkling, their faces blooming with brilliant smiles.
Like bees to honey, they sward around him...
