Chapter 823 The Bride Who Died of Fright 10
It wasn't until the rooster crowed at dawn that Ning Yan asked him, "Did you stay up all night because I told you to have two women on your left and one on your right?"
The man snorted.
"But who wouldn't want that? If I could, I'd like to marry several husbands and live a life surrounded by handsome men."
Good grief, those words made the ghost even angrier, and he left without saying a word!
The next morning, Ning Yan received news that Ning Lao Si and his nephew had been bitten to death by snakes.
Logically, she should have gone home to see her off in her final moments.
Yes, she really did go, and even sent a funeral gift of fifty taels of silver, which was quite a lot.
The villagers all praised her highly, and even if she couldn't cry, no one said anything. After all, they had already given her fifty taels of silver, so what else was there to say?
The Ning family was very satisfied, feeling that their granddaughter could still be saved. Sure enough, after her father died, she sent money back, and now their family could continue to live their lives.
Aunt Ning called Ning Yan aside, hoping to appeal to her emotions, since this daughter was truly capable.
However, Ning Yan only glanced at her coldly, "Remember, from the day you sold me, I have repaid your kindness in giving me life. Today, this fifty taels of silver is my last act of kindness to the Ning family."
"Don't come looking for me again, or the Ning family's life will only get worse!"
Aunt Ning was stunned by her daughter's heartless words. She hadn't expected this brat to be so cruel. She really didn't want her family anymore. She felt extremely uncomfortable, but there was nothing she could do.
The Song family's son doesn't take the imperial examinations, so even if she makes a scene at their door, what can she do to them?
If she gets really angry, she might get beaten up and there's nothing she can do about it.
Ning Yan was good at maintaining appearances; she only returned to town after Ning Lao Si and her eldest cousin had been sent up the mountain.
The Ning family was too poor to keep the two at home for long, so they sent them to the mountain to be buried that same day.
Just as they were thinking about how to spend the fifty taels of silver, the Ning family was robbed again that night.
Ning Yan went there herself, and she stole everything from the Ning family, leaving them not even a single piece of firewood.
Ning's mother fainted several times from crying. When she woke up, the first thing she thought of was to ask her fourth daughter-in-law to go find Wu Ya in town.
"Go find her and ask her for the silver. The Song family has plenty of silver!"
"No, we don't want money. We just want her to buy twenty acres of land for our family. That way we can still make a living, and the land won't be stolen!"
Aunt Ning turned her head away; she wouldn't go! She even suspected that the two times things were stolen from their house, it was Wu Ya who did it. After all, their family hadn't offended anyone too powerful; only the Song family could have emptied their house so cleanly.
"My fourth son was killed by you the day before yesterday. Are you going to throw me out to die today too?"
I'm telling you this: whoever's not afraid of death can go, but I'm not going!
"If you don't go to my Ning family, I'll divorce you!"
"What's the point of resting now that Ning Laosi is dead? Do you really think I'm easily scared?"
"Try taking a break yourself!"
Aunt Ning is now fearless. Anyway, her husband is dead and the Ning family has been robbed of everything. She can find any man to live with more comfortably than she did in the Ning family.
Thinking this, she immediately went back to her room to pack, but no, her room was empty and she couldn't pack anything. So she went to the village matchmaker's house empty-handed.
The matchmaker was shocked to hear her words. The man had just been buried, and the seven-day mourning period hadn't even passed yet, and this woman was already looking for a new husband?
However, as shocked as they were, they didn't refuse any business that came knocking on their door.
A few days later, they actually found her a suitable man and she got married.
Grandma Ning was also dumbfounded.
No, the entire Ning family was dumbfounded.
...
These days, Ning Yan spends half a day learning how to manage accounts and the backyard from her mother-in-law. Knowing that she is illiterate, Madam Song teaches her to read little by little.
Ning Yan thought her mother-in-law was quite good; she studied very diligently every day.
In less than a month, Ning Yan was able to manage the accounts independently.
Song Yanzhao's changes were also tremendous.
The cough is gone, but I'm still weak. However, I no longer get out of breath after just a few steps. I can walk up five flights of stairs without any trouble, and I can walk for half an hour without any problem.
Once he was in good health, he exercised more, which led to increased food intake. As his appetite grew, he was able to eat meat and fish. In just one month, he gained at least ten kilograms, his cheeks became fuller, and he would occasionally feel the urge to eat at night, but he would suppress it for fear of not being able to resist.
Ning Yan had been fasting for a month and was starting to covet someone's treasure, so she deliberately placed the book in front of Song Yanzhao again, saying, "Where did you leave off last time? Keep reading to me."
Song Yanzhao was very obedient and then began reading to her from the third chapter.
When evening came, Song Yanzhao went to bed early again, and the handsome young man came again.
As soon as he arrived, he started complaining, "Why did it take you so long to let me out this time? Were you having so much fun with someone else that you forgot about home?"
Ning Yan smiled and said, "Can you feel the passage of time even in the book?"
"Of course. It's just that I don't know exactly how long it will take."
Having become ghosts, unable to communicate with others, and trapped in books, how miserable must they be every day and night as time goes by?
Ning Yan kissed the man first, "Alright, the reason I haven't let you out lately is because someone else has moved into this body!"
Si Yutang was taken aback by her words. As the regent of Bao Kingdom for ten years, he was incredibly astute and understood Ning Yan's meaning perfectly. "You mean, you're also with other ghosts..."
He said he was my husband.
Both men are so outstanding, she can't bear to part with either of them. So she has to make them accept each other's existence so that she can live a life with two men on either side. They are just two ghosts and one person. What's the big deal if she wants to have them both?
Si Yutang was struck dumb. He was already suffering from sharing a wife with another person after becoming a ghost, and now there was another ghost to add to the suffering.
"On what grounds?"
“On our wedding day, he was the one who performed the wedding ceremony with me, and he even said that he would give me all his property as a betrothal gift.”
Upon hearing this, Si Yutang said, "My wealth is greater than his. You must already know where the capital of Bao Kingdom is. I will take you to see my treasure vault now."
After saying that, he didn't bother to be intimate with his wife. He picked up the clothes next to him and was about to put them on Ning Yan. Ning Yan had no choice but to obediently put on the clothes. As she dressed, she said, "I haven't been busy for nothing this past month. I met a wandering sorcerer who spent a lot of money to buy three teleportation talismans. With these talismans, we can instantly appear thousands of miles away, and you won't have to come out of my husband's body."
He also gave me a wonderful treasure called a storage bag. You can put anything in it. Didn't you say you were going to give me all your treasures? I'll put them all in my storage bag then. You won't be reluctant, will you?"
"Storage bag?"
