Chapter 44: Zhao Sanlang's Wedding Night Horror



Yongping Marquis Mansion, Zhao family.

The quilt is decorated with mandarin ducks and the tent is warm with red candles.

Under the veil, Xue Hanshu's heart was beating rapidly.

Although it was Youlan who got married on her behalf, she was the one sitting in the wedding tent now!

She did it! She worked so hard and finally sat in the seat Xue Panrou wanted to sit in and married the person Xue Panrou wanted to marry.

I guess Xue Panrou, who is suffering in the farm at this moment, must be so angry that she wants to kill her?

She has been suppressed by Xue Panrou for so many years, and finally it is her time to hold her head high!

The Yongping Marquisate is a century-old family that holds military power and is extremely wealthy.

From now on, she will be the mistress of this house!

I finally made it out...

Xue Hanshu cried with joy, and her tears left two tear marks on her thick makeup, making her look extremely terrifying in the dim light.

There was a sound of a door being pushed open.

Xue Hanshu quietly wiped away her tears and sat up straight.

As they drank and chatted, Zhao Shen got drunk and was now staggering into the room.

After the serving maid handed the scale for lifting the veil to Zhao Shen, she pushed them out the door in order.

The door was lightly closed, leaving only the couple inside.

Zhao Shen's face flushed, he chuckled and walked towards the wedding tent.

"Shu'er... do you know how much I miss you these days?"

He really liked a gentle and delicate woman like Xue Hanshu, especially since this woman loved him, obeyed him in everything, and was willing to be with him even if it meant losing her reputation. Such deep love was truly rare.

Although he lost some face in the process, for him, the affair was just a harmless one.

All in all, the result is good.

"Shu'er misses her husband too."

Xue Hanshu's voice was gentle and penetrating, making Zhao Shen even more impatient.

But the closer he got to Xue Hanshu, the more he vaguely sensed a strange smell.

The smell seemed to be coming from her body, with a strange rotten smell.

He even suspected that it was his own illusion... After all, when he carried Xue Hanshu into the sedan chair, he didn't smell anything except the fragrance of powder.

Zhao Shen held the scale bar in his hand and lifted the veil.

Xue Hanshu, who was wearing red makeup under the veil, looked at her with her bright eyes. However, the makeup was too thick, making the red color of her face look a little... weird.

No... it's too weird.

For some reason, the moment their eyes met, Zhao Shen felt a chill down his spine when he saw Xue Hanshu's stiff smile.

Xue Hanshu was still the same Xue Hanshu, but she looked a little thinner. Under the candlelight, her face was as white as paper, and the blush on her face floated on the powder, which seemed a little out of place.

Her smile was stiff, as if engraved on wood, not reaching her eyes, and her gaze was extremely empty.

It looks more like a...paper figure.

In an instant, countless scenes of ghost brides seducing scholars to absorb their yang energy flashed through Zhao Shen's mind.

Zhao Shen felt like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head.

He shook his head... He must have drunk too much and was a little tired today, which gave him this strange illusion.

That was his Shu'er, a woman as gentle as water, how could she be scary?

He smiled, forced himself not to think about those things, and held Xue Hanshu in his arms.

During the hug, he couldn't see Xue Hanshu's face, but only felt her body temperature, and his heart finally felt a lot more at ease.

But as we got closer, the strange stench became more and more obvious.

This time he was sure that it was not an illusion.

Maybe a servant didn't do his job carefully and left something dirty in the bridal chamber.

It's really unlucky. I must punish him severely...

Although he thought so, he couldn't resist the increasingly unbearable desire after drinking, and his hand reached into Xue Hanshu's dress.

After groping around skillfully for a while, he suddenly...

He felt something sticky, and something seemed to move in his palm.

He suddenly pulled his hand away and vaguely saw something in his palm.

Facing the candlelight, he actually saw the thing in his hand... moving!

"ah!"

He sat up suddenly and looked at Xue Hanshu in front of him with horror.

That thing in his hand... is clearly a wriggling maggot!

“Ghost…Ghost!!!”

In fear and nausea, Zhao Shen leaned against the wall and vomited most of the wine he had drunk tonight.

Xue Hanshu looked dazed, as if she was completely unaware of what was happening before her eyes, and even tried to support Zhao Shen who was feeling unwell.

"Husband...husband, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Shen, however, was like being chased by a ghost, screaming and retreating continuously.

"Don't come over here! Get out! Get away!"

"Husband, I am Shu'er!"

Zhao Shen's face was already as pale as death, and he ran out of the door in fear.

This commotion also attracted the Zhao family, who were so scared that they called a doctor overnight.

After the doctor examined her, he realized that Xue Hanshu was not a ghost, but she was not in much better condition either.

Xue Hanshu was infected with botfly and needed medication to treat it. This was not a big deal. The important thing was that her legs were already lame, and because of the delay in treatment, there was no turning back.

Now it was the Zhao family's turn to go crazy. After all the fuss, the new bride they married turned out to be a lame woman.

How dare the Xue family send such a daughter-in-law to their family!

The Zhao family quarreled all night long, and the whole place was in chaos.

After this incident, Xue Hanshu was unconscious for several hours and woke up at dawn.

However, she seemed to be disabled, with only residual makeup on her face. She was grinning foolishly and muttering something like "I am the young lady of the Yongping Marquis's Mansion". Her speech was unclear, and she was crying and laughing at the same time. It was hard to recognize her.

The Zhao family sealed the gate of the courtyard, not allowing anyone to enter or leave, and only left a maid to watch over it to prevent anyone from dying.
