Chapter 468: The prosperity has faded and retribution is coming
The osmanthus flowers in the garden are still blooming.
Sitting under the osmanthus tree and smelling the fragrance of osmanthus, Yin unexpectedly felt a rare sense of comfort and relaxation that she had not felt for many days.
It is said that these red osmanthus and golden osmanthus trees were planted by Fu Baozhen in those days.
Haha...the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion really knows how to enjoy herself!
Smelling the fragrance of osmanthus really makes people feel relaxed and comfortable both physically and mentally!
At this time, the fragrance of osmanthus flowers wafted out, and Yin was intoxicated by it for a moment, as if she was in a dreamland...
Yin closed her eyes and let herself sink into the charming illusion...
But somehow, Fu Baozhen... Fu Baozhen appeared in the illusion again...
The Fu Baozhen in the illusion was not like the ghost seen at night, but real and as beautiful as a fairy!
Fu Baozhen stood under the osmanthus tree, graceful, elegant, soft, and smiling sweetly...
Yin suddenly opened her eyes and couldn't help shivering.
Not sure if it was because of the cold or fear, Yin pulled her cotton coat tighter with trembling hands.
Look up at the clusters of osmanthus flowers blooming on the branches, and smell the intoxicating fragrance of osmanthus flowers...
Yin suddenly stood up...
what happened?
Why is that damn ghost Fu Baozhen everywhere here?
Yin looked up at the rising sun. It was clearly broad daylight!
Why do I always feel like there's a cold wind blowing straight into the cracks between my bones?
Look at the beautiful scenery in the garden...
The scenery is still the same.
But...what happened today?
Why do I always think of Fu Baozhen?
Even when looking at osmanthus flowers and smelling their fragrance, I would think of Fu Baozhen.
At night it is the ghost of Fu Baozhen...
During the day... During the day, you can also see Fu Baozhen...
Could it be that... I will never be able to escape Fu Baozhen’s nightmare in this lifetime?
Could it be that... I killed Fu Baozhen back then...
Fu Baozhen died unjustly...
She haunts...
She refused to leave here...
She still stayed in this mansion...
What is she doing staying in this mansion?
She must be looking for revenge!
The more Yin thought about it, the more panicked she became, and the more scared she became...
She couldn't stay in the garden anymore, she had to leave quickly.
When Yin stood up, she felt her legs go weak and her body swayed. Chuntao and Qiugui stepped forward to support her.
"Quick...quick...get out of here! Quick..."
Yin looked panicked, and as she spoke, she turned and walked out of the garden...
She no longer dared to look at the osmanthus flowers that were in full bloom...
I even held my breath, not daring to smell the sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance again...
Supported by her two maids, Chuntao and Qiugui, Yin stumbled out of the moon-shaped gate of the garden.
Only when she stood outside the garden gate did Yin start to breathe heavily...
In order to avoid smelling the sweet osmanthus fragrance, Yin held her breath and almost suffocated her to death.
At this time, standing outside the garden gate, I could not see the osmanthus flowers, nor smell their fragrance, as if I could avoid the entanglement of Fu Baozhen's ghost.
Only after she had caught her breath did Yin walk forward step by step.
After walking a few steps, Yin stopped again...
It was such a huge mansion that Yin didn't know where to go for a moment.
Chuntao and Qiugui exchanged glances, both of which showed helplessness.
Don’t they know where the lady is going?
What to do
I didn't dare to ask.
They knew that the lady was in a bad mood...
No, ever since the two ladies from the Duke of Anguo’s Mansion came, my wife has never been in a good mood!
Later on, the mansion was robbed, which was like adding insult to injury!
But, they were just slaves.
Under such circumstances...how to comfort the lady...they couldn't think of a word.
So, Chuntao and Qiugui both chose to keep silent.
The two of them adhered to the principle that when the lady walked, they helped her walk;
The lady stood still, and they helped her to stand still.
Just don't open your mouth, don't make any sound.
Yin raised her head and looked at the houses and courtyards that were lined up in rows, both near and far...
In just a few days, this mansion...how come it looks...so dilapidated?
Everywhere is deserted;
Everywhere is empty.
Why didn't you think of it before?
Yin subconsciously walked forward, without a destination, just walking forward woodenly... walking...
Occasionally, she would meet a few maids and servants wandering around with nothing to do on the road. When they saw her, the mistress, they would just bow perfunctorily and then run away in an instant.
Yin suddenly felt that she had worked so hard to get the position of a marquis' wife;
Trying so hard to keep this position, it seems... as if... maybe... there's really no point.
This position is not as noble and valuable as imagined!
Perhaps, there was really no need for me to fight so hard and be so shameless for this position back then!
It's not necessary to be the marquis's wife.
I drink porridge and eat pickles every day, and am haunted by ghosts at night and day...
The husband whom I tried so hard to protect was actually a useless waste!
Not only is he a waste, he is also a promiscuous scumbag!
Because he betrayed Fu Baozhen;
Also because other women have betrayed me.
Even if I stay with a man like this for my whole life, how can I be happy?
In the past, no matter whether Leng Xian was sincere or insincere towards her, at least she had Fu Baozhen's large dowry and Fu Baozhen's jewelry.
It seemed that relying on Fu Baozhen's gold, silver and treasures, he could fill a large part of the emptiness in his heart.
At least you can enjoy the pleasure that wealth brings!
But now, the mansion is empty, and there is no money left...
Only a waste Leng Xian was left;
a bitter aunt and mother-in-law;
There are also two unfilial children who don’t know what to do and only know how to complain about everything all day long.
These were obtained by me through all means, stealing, robbing, and even killing people...
