Dark Marriage: Sleeping with Ghosts

"come..."

In the darkness, Qingyue's voice was slightly hoarse, so weak that it was almost inaudible, and the suppressed anger could be heard in the deliberately lowered voice.

The front yard was still brightly lit at this time, and it was very lively. The guests with their own ulterior motives talked and laughed, and Yan Yan pushed the cups.

No one noticed that the bride they despised had escaped from the Zhao family, and no one knew that Zhao Xining, the daughter of the main family, had woken up.

Except for her, there was no living person in the entire courtyard. Zhao Xining grabbed the clothes on her chest with one hand, and forced herself to sit up with the other. The hand supporting the bed trembled uncontrollably. There was already a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.

Limbs are weak, this body is as heavy as lead, she should wake up at sunrise, but when she thinks that the man with whom she has been married is fleeing, how can she fall asleep peacefully .

He moved his legs under the bed with all his strength, and landed tremblingly on the ground. His snow-white feet stepped on the black-painted pedals. To be precise, they should not be stepped on, because there was no effort, they could only be said to be placed on them.

Zhao Xining's pink and white face was flushed, she moved forward and let go of her hands, trying to stand up, but she looked at her body high, and before she could stand up, she fell forward and fell to the ground with a plop.

She had never been so embarrassed.

Despite the embarrassment, she didn't feel annoyed or impatient, and she could still keep her face unchanged, but the black mist under her eyes was thicker, her gaze was colder, and her desire to catch Wang Lin back was even more urgent.

Holding on to her trembling arms, Zhao Xining gritted her teeth and slowly got up, and moved her legs little by little to stand up. This unbearable posture of prostrate on the ground challenged her bottom line all the time.

Grabbing everything she could grab, she walked towards the door. In just a few short steps, she seemed to have walked a stick of incense.

"Come here..." Zhao Xining called out out of breath when she walked to the door, only the sound of frogs in the yard and the wind blowing over the leaves responded to her.

Mrs. Yue has been busy these two days and has done a lot of work. Now that the two have entered the bridal chamber, she feels a sense of satisfaction in her heart. After drinking and eating, she did not forget to send a little girl to see how the two new couples are doing. , to see if there is anything that needs to be served.

So when the little girl came with a lantern, she raised her head and was about to enter the courtyard, when she saw under the moonlight, there was always a well-dressed, gentle but cold-tempered eldest lady, a fiery red wedding dress slipped down her shoulders, and the inside was white The obscene clothes are also messy.

In this cool night, she was sweating profusely, her eyebrows were curved with anger, her complexion was snow-white, and the red at the end of her eyes seemed to turn into dancing flames, the girl was stunned.

Zhao Xining stood behind the threshold holding onto the courtyard door tightly with both hands, her legs were shaking like she was about to fall down at any moment.

Seeing the girl, Zhao Xining raised her hand and snapped, "Get someone to come!"

The little girl trembled. She had been serving the young lady for so long, and she had never seen her lose her composure. She was so frightened that she hurriedly responded, and ran to the crowded place in the front yard with her skirt.

As soon as the little girl left, Zhao Xining's legs went limp, and with a muffled sound, her knees slammed heavily on the stone steps with the weight of her whole body.

The little girl first found Mrs. Yue, and as soon as the old lady heard that the eldest lady woke up, she immediately took the girl to find the old lady. While sending a message to the host's wife, the little girl shivered and told what she looked like when she saw the eldest lady.

The old lady, who was still a bit drunk on her face, lowered her eyes slightly, and the trace of wine disappeared immediately, she got up and hurried to Zhao Xining's courtyard with the old servant who was accompanying her.

Walking into the courtyard, all the windows inside are pitch-black, even in the main room, but the door is wide open. The old lady walked into the main room with a frown, and an old servant immediately followed her to open the door. candlelight.

"mother"

Hearing the familiar address, the old lady saw the fire shining on the bed in a blink of an eye, and Zhao Xining sat on it safe and sound. The old lady was obviously relieved, but her face was still majestic. She glanced at the room and noticed something was wrong .

"Where's that girl?"

Zhao Xi's eyes flashed, and she grabbed the brocade quilt covering her legs. The legs under the quilt were numb and painful at this moment, as if being pricked by thousands of needles, but it was not as good as the tingling pain in her heart at this moment.

In her mother's eyes, this kind of thing means that she is incompetent.

She looked at the wedding dress neatly arranged at the end of the bed, and remembered what Wang Lin said by her bedside these days, she said in a low voice with no expression on her face, "She ran away."

These three words sounded like thunder on the ground, and the old lady opened her almond-shaped eyes in shock, the old slave who bowed her head in the shadow was also stunned, and the women and mothers outside the door stared wide-eyed.

After she calmed down, the old lady suddenly became furious, and she couldn't calm down as she paced back and forth in the room. When she walked to the desk and swept her sleeves away, all the melons, fruits, dishes and dishes on the table fell to the ground, her expression was terrifying. Ask, "When did you run?"

"Less than half an hour"

This shameful humiliation, the old lady looked fiercely, and immediately ordered, "Let people chase after!"

Zhao Xining's eyelids twitched, and she looked up at the angry mother, as if thinking of something, she frowned and said, "Mother, she is the wife of the child, and the child should handle it in person."

For a hundred years, the main family has never had such a thing. It is a shame and a shame for the main family who is the face of the Zhao family. The old lady was furious and angry. Zhao Xining said without even thinking about it, "You just woke up and your body hasn't recovered yet, so I will handle this matter for my mother."

Zhao Xining's index finger moved uncontrollably, and she lowered her head to touch the finger. Her eyes darkened, and her mother took care of it, which meant that she would be crippled even if she came back. Life would be worse than death.

When she knew she wanted to escape and when she woke up and found that she had really left, although she was furious in her heart, she never thought about how to punish her after she was captured.

At this moment, there was even a little confusion in my heart, what should I do if I really arrest someone and come back.

But one thing is certain, Wang Lin's kindness to her is not only for saving her life, but also for her first wife. She has promised her that she will not let anyone hurt her except herself.

After thinking it over, Zhao Xining turned to look at the angry mother, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "My wife, I will handle it myself"

The old lady was slightly surprised and looked back at her daughter.

One of the reasons why she values ​​this daughter is that she is smart and knows how to advance and retreat, but now.

In fact, after entering the door and knowing that she was safe and sound, he didn't look at her carefully again. Now he looked closely and saw that her hair was messy, there were traces of lipstick on her snow-white neck half covered by her collar, and the vermilion smudged at the corners of her lips. are the same color.

Although the clothes are neat, it can't hide her embarrassed appearance, and there are even stains on her cuffs. Thinking of the servant's description just now, it is not surprising to compare her, but she is embarrassed, but her expression is calm and does not show embarrassment.

The old lady couldn't guess her thoughts for a while, she just felt that she seemed to have changed in the past two months, but she didn't know if it was the change she wanted. Guan Se knew it was done, and thanked in a warm voice, "The child is self-willed, let mother worry about it."

As soon as she finished speaking, the old lady flicked her long sleeves, and the jade beads on her head also vibrated, "If I am not satisfied, I still have to deal with this person."

Zhao Xining retracted her eyes lightly, and looked down at her right index finger, unable to see her expression clearly under the shadow.

Neither agree nor refuse.

This kind of her made the old lady feel strange, and the old lady sighed in her heart, not knowing whether her change was a good thing or a bad thing.

"If what I heard today let me hear a word and a half sentence outside-" [▲Welcome to join the Outline Love Lily Resource Group, group number: 82452009▼Non-author group▲]

Before the old lady could finish her sentence, she glanced fiercely at the four women standing at the door. The women shuddered and fell to their knees, their expressions were quite calm, "Old lady, this maidservant will never spread the word."

In a later search, they found that Zhao Zhuoyan and the people she brought had also disappeared at the banquet, and a car was also missing.

It was obvious that Zhao Zhuoyan helped someone escape, the old lady was furious and smashed the room, angry and helpless.

Zhao Zhuoyan's father, Zhao Ruolan, was her nephew. After her sister died of illness, she entrusted the young Ruo'er to her. She treated Zhao Ruolan like her own son, and loved him even more than Zhao Xining, the legitimate daughter.

When he had to be expelled from Zhao's house in the early years, it was like a piece of flesh had been gouged out of her heart. Those days were so painful that she could wake up from her dreams in the middle of the night.

This feeling is still fresh in my memory.

"Ruo Er..."

If Zhao Xining had been present, he would not have believed that this lost-looking woman was her cold-faced and hard-hearted mother.

In order not to alarm the visitors, the host family sent someone to drive behind them quietly. There is only one way out from here, and it is only a matter of time before they catch up, unless they are prepared to stay awake.

Zhao Xining wanted to bring Wang Lin back in person, but she had more energy than she could. Her body would not be able to recover from the sequelae caused by her forced waking up. Knocking out of the courtyard, he was covered in bruises all over his body.

On the second day, the newlyweds were supposed to serve tea to the old lady early in the morning, and meet the old people who came from different places. Although these people had their own thoughts, they were all looking forward to this meeting. I also came here to meet the future Patriarch. After meeting, it is easy to judge whether it is attachment or other things.

They were looking forward to it, but they were told that Miss Di was unwell and would not be able to see guests today. Although the guests were dissatisfied, they politely expressed their concerns and went back to live in the arranged courtyard.

Because of this marriage, no less than a hundred people came to this deep mountain, not counting the servants who were traveling with them, many of them lived in the city all their lives like Zhao Zhuoyan and returned to the master's house for the first time.

The peaceful and quiet mountain at sunrise and sunset suddenly became a lot more lively, which added some vitality to this ancient and quiet mansion. The old lady was happy to be quiet, but because she remembered what happened to Zhao Ruolan back then, her heart ached unbearably , Turn a blind eye to this chore.

Only Zhao Xining's courtyard was still quiet, the sun was shining today, so someone asked to open the window, Zhao Xining sat on the bedside and looked out the window for a while, and suddenly caught a glimpse of the big red happy letter on the window that hadn't been removed yet.

She couldn't figure it out, the anger at the beginning was followed by the confusion now, and she had clearly agreed to her at the beginning, but she was about to leave after being provoked by that woman.

Zhao Xining touched her lips. In the past few days, she could occasionally hear voices. Last night, although she couldn't move her body, she couldn't open her eyes, and the sensations in her body were not very real, but she still remembered some.

The more he thought about her, the angrier he became, and his calm face slowly became cold.

How could she leave after paying homage to marriage and performing the ceremony of husband and wife.

Don't these mean anything to her!
