Dark Marriage: Sleeping with Ghosts

After Zhao Zhuoyan left, Wang Lin couldn't fall asleep either, so she got up and went to Zhao Xining's room, and sat beside her bed, watching her quietly.

After sitting for an indeterminate amount of time, the old lady who taught her etiquette in the morning didn't find her in the east wing, so she found Zhao Xining in the room, and she stood outside the curtain.

Wang Lin didn't notice that after entering this room, the mother's contemptuous attitude became very respectful and cowardly, cautious and even a little fearful.

Wang Lin stood up and was about to follow the old lady to study etiquette. He accidentally saw the faintly glowing candle in the lampshade at the end of the bed. He reached out and touched its black skeleton. It was very hard. Wang Lin asked casually, "Why is this candle still lit during the day? ?”

"Miss Hui, Ma'am, I don't know, I only know that these two long-lived candles have been lit since the eldest lady's accident, and they have not been extinguished since they were lit."

"So miraculous" didn't notice her strangeness, Wang Lin bent down and took a closer look at the candle inside. After burning for so long, the body of the candle was hardly consumed.

It's too unreasonable, but she has seen ghosts before, no matter how unreasonable things are, she can accept them now.

Walking out of Zhao Xining's room with the old lady, the old lady was obviously relieved after stepping over the threshold and standing outside the door with both feet.

I don't know why she even became cautious with Wang Lin in the afternoon. Wang Lin also noticed this, but she felt bewildered and didn't ask any more questions.

When the old lady left in the evening, she stood at the door and looked at the dimly lit window in Zhao Xining's room, hesitated to speak, and finally turned around and told Wang Lin that she was busy tomorrow, so she might not be able to come, and asked her to memorize everything she taught in the heart.

At night, Wang Lin stood by the window and looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, muttering to herself, "Will it rain tomorrow without stars?"

Wang Lin couldn't sleep, she thought of Yu Yu, her irresponsible father, her school and her home, she stood by the window for a long time, she inadvertently lowered her head and glanced back, only to realize that the girl was also there all the time Standing, dozed off, his little head kept lighting up.

She couldn't sleep, but people here are used to going to bed early, she was negligent, Wang Lin turned around and lit a lantern, and the girl woke up when she moved, saw her lighting the lantern, and hurried over to help her, asking, "Mrs. Do you want to go to Missy's room?"

Wang Lin handed the lighted lantern to her, "It's late at night, I'm going to sleep, you should go back to rest early"

The girl looked up at Wang Lin suspiciously, but there was no sign of sleepiness on Wang Lin's face.

"Let's go." Wang Lin patted her on the shoulder.

"Oh"

After the girl left, Wang Lin blew on the lamp, took off her clothes and lay down.

Sure enough, the next day, it began to drizzle when it was slightly bright, and the yard seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist. Everyone was preparing for tomorrow's wedding.

The mansion was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and many people came and went in and out of the originally deserted courtyard. They changed all the things that could be changed in the courtyard into red, and hung red silk and red lanterns on the door.

The festive colors did not look festive in this misty and rainy courtyard, but made her feel a little weird.

In addition, these people who were busy in and out of business didn't see a trace of joy on their faces, and they didn't say a word. They just saluted respectfully when they saw her. The silent and oppressive atmosphere made Wang Lin's heart feel heavier and heavier.

She came to Zhao Xining's room, they were decorating the room, maybe they were afraid of disturbing the people lying on the bed, there were four or five people walking around in the room at the same time, but they were all very quiet, no movement could be heard.

The drapery was changed to bright red, Wang Lin watched them busy, shifted her eyes, and saw some red happy words placed in front of the window, walked over and picked up one to read.

The very common double happiness, bright red, is prepared for her and Xiao Xining.

This is her marriage, no matter how weird and dull it is, it is also her marriage to Zhao Xining, it is her marriage to the person she likes.

It doesn't matter if no one takes it seriously, it also means a lot to her.

Wang Lin picked up the happy word, dipped it in rice paste, and stuck it on the window.

It rained all day, until it was dark, and the grass in the yard was covered with glistening drops.

The entire field of vision seems to have been washed, clean and clear.

The people who had been busy all day finally came to a rest slowly, and the yard returned to calm.

As soon as the rain stopped, the old lady came again, carrying the red cloth bag that she would forget about, and led her out of the yard without saying a word.

After two days here, it was the first time she walked out of the yard and had a chance to take a look outside. The time she was ushered in couldn't be counted. At that time, she was so dizzy that she just followed along without seeing anything.

The night has fallen, and everywhere you go is festive colors. There is only a silhouette of houses, rockery and woods, and red lanterns are hung everywhere.

Finally, Wang Lin followed the old lady to a remote and elegant courtyard, and the old lady carefully handed over the cloth bag to her.

"You rest here tonight. Tomorrow the old slave will bring someone to dress you up. Don't forget the etiquette that the old slave taught you..." The old lady said the taboos on the wedding day before leaving.

Tomorrow is the last day, the most important day, after tomorrow, that female ghost, Xiao Xi Ning, should also wake up, and she should also go.

In the evening, Wang Lin had dinner and went to bed early, and it began to rain lightly outside in the middle of the night, and the lingering clouds and mist did not dissipate until the early morning.

At dawn, Wang Lin heard the sound of firecrackers in the distance, one after another, and the girl who brought the porridge said that she was welcoming guests.

In the morning, Wang Lin drank an extra bowl of porridge, because the old lady said that the bride should not eat from morning to dusk, so she had better eat more in the morning.

After breakfast, the old lady took two old women to bathe her body.

If everyone stripped naked and took a shower together, she wouldn't feel uncomfortable, but she was the only one who was stripped naked, with several pairs of eyes staring at her all the time, as if she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to wash herself clean, she held the bath towel and rubbed it hard. Rub her body.

She is at this age, and her words are not good-looking. After the initial embarrassment, Wang Lin tried her best to ignore their eyes and hands, as well as the burning pain on her body that was almost rubbed to pieces.

After taking a shower, Wang Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and the next thing that greeted her was the ancient face cleansing method, twisting face.

The old woman first smeared a layer of fine flour on her face, and then scraped off the hair on her face with a thin, straight thread.

Although it is not very painful, but the long process is very painful, and...

Seeing her hesitant to speak, the old woman who twisted her noodles thought she couldn't even bear this kind of pain, so she gave her a contemptuous look.

Well, Wang Lin closed her eyes and stopped thinking about it.

Half an hour later, the greasy flour came off her face, and when the old woman who twisted her face saw her face, her hands trembled in fright and she almost knelt down.

The old lady was just returning with a cup of soup, seeing the old woman looking at her in fear, her face tensed as if guessing something, she walked over and saw Wang Lin's face, she was so angry that she almost threw the soup on the old woman directly.
