In 1915, Dong Zhujun, who was working as an entertainer in a brothel without selling his body, ushered in the special plane of fate. This year, she met the military governor Xia Zhishi . At this time, Xia Zhishi was at a low point in his life. Yuan Shikai offered 30,000 Ocean to put a reward on his head.

In order to save his life, Xia Zhishi could only hide and rent in Japan. Dong Zhujun took the risk to visit. At a time when his life was in danger, Xia Zhi longed for a woman's love, so he proposed to raise money to redeem Dong Zhujun and then marry her.

Dong Zhujun heard this and confidently said: " Save me, you don't have to spend a single copper plate . If you spend money, I won't marry you!" Dong Zhujun is such a woman with backbone, what she wants is love. , is dignity, not charity.

In the end, Dong Zhujun escaped from the brothel on the grounds of illness and fell into the arms of Xia Zhishi.

Two weeks later, 15-year-old Dong Zhujun and 27-year-old Xia Zhishi held a simple wedding ceremony in Shanghai. From then on, Dong Zhujun, who was born in poverty and lived in a brothel for three years, stepped into a wealthy family.

But at that time, Dong Zhujun only felt that she had met love, and she did not know what kind of grievance, torture and suffering this marriage would bring to her.

After getting married, Dong Zhujun followed Xia Zhishi to Japan, and she finally realized her wish to go to school. In 1916, their eldest daughter Xia Guoqiong was born. Dong Zhujun studied while taking care of the small family. Although it was hard work, she felt fulfilled. .

But not long after the peaceful days, Dong Zhujun discovered the "true face" of Xia Zhishi. The man he loved deeply was actually very traditional at heart, even a little chauvinistic.

Because she didn't like Dong Zhujun's public appearance, Xia Zhishi stopped her from going to school and instead hired a tutor for her. Dong Zhujun was dissatisfied but had nothing to do.

In 1918, because his father was critically ill in the summer, Dong Zhujun had to follow her husband back to his hometown in Sichuan, and from then on he was involved in the complicated life of an old-style extended family.

The Xia family was originally a middle-class landowner. Later, when Xia Zhi became the commander-in-chief of the Sichuan Army in Jingguo, the Xia family naturally became a prominent local family.

This is a large family with an extremely strong feudal atmosphere, with dozens of people, but Dong Zhujun is not panicked. Her idea is very simple. As long as she treats each other sincerely, she will definitely move her husband's family.

So for the first time when she came to visit, Dong Zhujun bought a lot of foreign goods as gifts to relatives and friends. She was thoughtful and did not miss anyone, even the juniors. She took good care of them.

Dong Zhujun did this, firstly, to make a good impression, and secondly, to silence everyone, but obviously she thought wrong. Even though they spent their own money to buy gifts, the Xia family still criticized her and even looked down upon her.

Her mother-in-law was extremely dissatisfied with her daughter-in-law, who was born in a brothel. She even secretly encouraged Xia Zhishi to marry again.

But before the marriage, Xia Zhi promised Dong Zhujun that she would only have one wife in this life, so she firmly rejected her mother's proposal.

After Dong Zhujun learned about this, he was so angry that he was shaking all over. After all, he was from a humble background, so his husband's family looked at him coldly.

There is only one way to change other people's attitudes towards you, and that is to strengthen yourself and use your strength to block everyone's mouths .

Dong Zhujun is really hardworking. She learns to cook, sew clothes, do housework, and helps the accountant with the accounts. She also helps the Xia family's children with their homework in the evening, stays up late to tie the soles of their shoes, and so on.

It can be said that in order to win the favor of her husband's family, Dong Zhujun tried her best and showed extraordinary shrewdness and virtuousness. The Xia family gradually began to respect her.

But Dong Zhujun's difficulties did not end. Although his mother-in-law liked him a little, she made a request, that is, let them hold another old-style wedding.

When Dong Zhujun heard this, he felt a little more scrupulous. He and Xia Zhishi had already been married in Shanghai and they already had daughters. Why would they want to hold a wedding again?

But Dong Zhujun, who came from a poor background, had no right to object. She had no choice but to obey and cooperate.On the day of the wedding, the Xia family was beautiful and lively, but as the "bride" Dong Zhujun was full of grievances.

After this wedding, it meant that the Xia family officially accepted Dong Zhujun as their daughter-in-law. However, Dong Zhujun's life did not improve because of this. The main reason was that she gave birth to four daughters in succession.

When his eldest daughter was born, Xia Zhishi vowed: " I will train my daughter to be a heroine in the future!" But after all, he meant something different.

While her mother-in-law was looking forward to her grandson day and night, Dong Zhujun gave birth to daughters one after another. The face of her mother-in-law's family became increasingly ugly, so that when she gave birth to three daughters, Xia Zhishi actually said: "Another baby" A loser! ”

In addition to disdain for the gender of his daughters, Xia Zhishi also prevents his daughters from receiving education because he feels that his daughters will get married sooner or later, and it is a waste of money to train them.

But Dong Zhujun would never allow her daughters to become victims of feudal ideas, so she firmly supported her daughters in studying despite everyone's objections and Xia Zhishi's objections.

Although he felt aggrieved, Dong Zhujun chose to continue production. Fortunately, she finally gave birth to a baby boy for the Xia family during her fifth pregnancy, completing her mission of "continuing the incense."

The day Dong Zhujun gave birth to his son, he almost escaped from the gate of hell, but at that time Xia Zhishi was still at the gambling table. When he found out that he had a son, he ran to the hospital happily.

What chilled Dong Zhujun was that he didn't even look at himself, but just picked up his son. At that moment, Dong Zhujun's heart fell to the bottom.

In order to welcome the arrival of his son, Xia Zhishi held a grand banquet. His proud expression at the wine table made Dong Zhujun sad. You must know that he had never made wine for his four previous daughters.

At this time, Xia Zhishi was no longer the same person as the smug and ambitious young man he once was. After losing his official position, he indulged in gambling and smoking, which was a complete self-destruction.

Dong Zhujun looked at Xia Zhishi, who was becoming more and more unmotivated, and only felt that Feeling sad, he was also planning a way out, for the Xia family and for his own children.

She wants her daughters to go to school. This is also the best way out for them. Therefore, the shrewd and capable Dong Zhujun first founded a sock knitting factory, and two years later she founded the Flying Eagle Rickshaw Company.

When Dong Zhujun's ability did not change Xia Zhi, perhaps because of his inferiority complex, he teased Dong Zhujun everywhere, and the relationship between the two gradually reached a freezing point.

But what really disappointed Dong Zhujun in Xia Zhishi was his attitude towards his parents. Dong Zhujun's parents originally lived in Shanghai, and it was Xia Zhishi who took the initiative to bring them to Sichuan.

When Xia Zhishi said the original words, she felt that Dong Zhujun was too busy alone, so she might as well ask her two elders to come over to help, so that she would be less stressed and could also let them come over to relax.

Dong Zhujun felt a little more moved, thinking that Xia Zhishi really thought about herself. Little did she know that Xia Zhishi had his own little plan, which was to use Dong Zhujun's parents to make things difficult for Dong Zhujun.

Ever since Dong Zhujun’s parents came to the Xia family, not only did they have to work like servants, but they were often scolded by Xia Zhishi. They all said that cold food tastes good, but a cold face is not good-looking. The Dong family’s parents, the Xia family, lived a better life than Huanglian. Still bitter.

Once, Xia Zhishi asked Dong's father to smoke opium, but he was wrongly accused of stealing the opium and even humiliated the old man in front of the servants at home, saying that he looked honest but didn't expect that his hands and feet were unclean.

Dong Zhujun judged his father and thought of a way to prove his innocence. Xia Zhishi, who knew he was in the wrong, actually said: " The whole family teamed up to bully him. They wanted to trample the Xia family under their feet!"

Dong Zhujun Her heart was really cold, but her mother said to her: " We are from a humble background. It's good that the Xia family doesn't dislike it. It doesn't matter if we are a little wronged!"

Listening to her mother's words, she looked into her eyes. The tears made Dong Zhujun feel like a knife. She told herself that only by becoming stronger can she become the supporter of her parents and win the respect of the Xia family.

From then on, Dong Zhujun worked harder, and the companies she founded were on the right track. However, Dong Zhujun's strength did not earn Xia Zhishi's appreciation and respect. On the contrary, he became inferior, sensitive and suspicious.

Unable to stop Dong Zhujun's efforts and excellence, Xia Zhi took all his grievances on the Dong parents, making the old couple's life in the Xia family increasingly difficult.

Seeing Xia Zhishi embarrass his parents, Dong Zhujun was extremely disappointed with him. The golden hairpin incident that happened not long after made Dong Zhujun see Xia Zhishi clearly.

The origin of the matter is this. Dong's mother saved money and bought a gold hairpin, but accidentally lost it. Because she was distressed, Dong's mother was so anxious that she cried. Unexpectedly, Xia Zhishi ordered someone to tie up Dong's mother. The reason It was: " She cried and cried, it's so annoying !

Dong Zhujun and Xia Zhishi, who came over after hearing the sound, argued with each other. Unexpectedly, Xia Zhishi, who was blushing, actually took out a pistol and pointed it directly at Dong Zhujun's mother and daughter.

The incident happened suddenly, and Dong Zhujun and her daughter were frightened. Out of instinct, Dong's mother pulled Dong Zhujun and ran away.

After this incident, Dong Zhujun seemed to have a premonition that it was the end. The parents and daughter proposed to return to Shanghai to live. Dong Zhujun knew that his parents had been wronged in the Xia family. Although he didn't want them to leave, he still agreed with tears.

However, Dong Zhujun's life was not easy after his parents left. Shi Shi always made troubles and quarreled with her, and he was also very harsh on his daughters.

Once, Xia Zhishi let his eldest daughter Guoqiong die because of a trivial matter, and even beat her daughter behind closed doors. Zhu Jun tried his best to protect his daughter, but she knew that if she continued to stay in the Xia family, neither she nor her daughter would have a peaceful life.

Although Xia Zhi had a revolution, his feudal thoughts were deep-rooted in his bones, and he did not respect women at all. , even a bit discriminatory.

Even though Dong Zhujun had done everything he should do, Xia Zhishi was still not satisfied. Once, when the two had an argument, Xia Zhishi beat Dong Zhujun until he was bruised and bruised.

The most terrible thing is that in the end, he took out a kitchen knife and wanted to chop Dong Zhujun. That day, Dong Zhujun ran all the way to his relatives' house. Although her injuries were very painful, her heart hurt even more.

That night, Dong Zhujun was hurt even more. I made a decision: leave the Xia family .

In fact, it is not that Dong Zhujun has never left before, but every time she comes back by herself. A daughter with a bad background has to go home by herself even when she is wronged. Talk about dignity.

But this time Dong Zhujun was cruel. She wanted to take her four daughters to Shanghai. On the one hand, she wanted to leave Xia Zhishi, and on the other hand, she wanted her four daughters to receive education.

Among the five children, Dong Zhujun. The only person who was not taken away was his son Xia Daming, because he was a boy and his life would be much easier in the Xia family. In 1929, in order to get rid of the shackles of husband's power, Dong Zhujun came to Shanghai with his four daughters and ran away from home. It was quite a sensation at the time and became a hot news item published in major newspapers at the time.

In fact, there was confusion behind Dong Zhujun’s loneliness, but she never looked back, even if she hit her head and suffered a bloody injury in Shanghai. Return to the Xia family.

Those who do not succumb to fate will surely have a moment of blooming, and the same is true for Dong Zhujun.

After experiencing various hardships and difficulties, Dong Zhujun established Jinjiang Sichuan Restaurant in Shanghai. Six years had passed since she left the Xia family, and she and Xia Zhishi had also ended their relationship as husband and wife.

Later, Dong Zhujun developed the Sichuan restaurant and founded the famous " Jinjiang Hotel ". The four daughters she brought out also lived up to their mother's cultivation and became elites in different fields.

After the liberation of Shanghai, Dong Zhujun donated all the Jinjiang Hotel and his garden house to the country free of charge. Even Premier Zhou personally received her and thanked her for her support to the party and the country during the Anti-Japanese War era.

In her later years, Dong Zhujun, who had gone through many hardships, still maintained her elegance and calmness. Born in a brothel, she used diligence, wisdom and kindness to wash away the shame imposed on her in the past years.

It is worth mentioning that since the divorce, Dong Zhujun has not remarried. It is not that she misses Xia Zhishi so much, but that she feels: "Managing a marriage is much more difficult than running a career ... .”

In 1998, Dong Zhujun ended her extraordinary life at the age of 98. Although life dealt her a bad hand, Dong Zhujun used her firm belief to fight the king and became a legend of a century-old life... .
