Chapter 23
Chapter 23 Hell Marriage Su Chunyu was so scared that she quickly knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy, “Sir, I know I was wrong. Please don’t kill me.” Thinking of Zhang Jian’s ruthless killing methods, Su family and the others were all trembling in fear. They knelt on the floor and did not dare to make a sound, afraid that it would attract Zhang Jian’s anger. “Su Chunyu, for the sake of Xiao Long, I will spare your life for the time being.” Zhang Jian’s cold and ruthless gaze swept over everyone. He said in a deep voice, “All of you, listen up. Later, put on mourning clothes and go to the mourning hall to guard the old master until he’s buried.” “If any of you neglect him, I will let you go down and be buried with the master.” Several guards threw a pile of linen mourning clothes in front of Su family, and then escorted Su Jiaobai out of the room. “What a sin!” Old Madam Su said with a sad face, “The misfortune of the family, the misfortune of the family!” Although she did not express her dissatisfaction, she was already over seventy! How could an old woman like her accept such a humiliation? “Mom, the Zhang family must want Jiaobai to marry Old Master Zhang. According to the custom, she has to lie in the coffin alive and be buried with Old Master Zhang.” Su Guichu couldn’t bear it and said, “In this case, I’m afraid she won’t be able to keep her life.” In the end, Su Jiaobai was his own daughter, and he, as a father, felt a little sorry to see her buried alive. If he had known that such a day would come, he would not have let Chen Fan take her away no matter what. In the past, although her face had been ruined and she could not live like a normal person, at least she was still alive. “Guichu, I warn you. If you dare to plead for that jinx, you will be the murderer of the entire family!” Old Madam Su’s face was gloomy. “When we all go to hell, let’s see if you still have the face to see Su family’s ancestors!” “Dad, you must not be confused.” Su Chunyu said anxiously, “If that jinx does not die, our entire Su family will be

Chapter 23 Hell Marriage buried with him!” “Su Guichu, if you dare to plead for that jinx, even if I die, I will not let you go!” Zhao Lan gritted her teeth and threatened. “Guichu, you must not do anything stupid! Her dying is better than the entire family dying.” “Uncle, please don’t harm us. We don’t want to die yet!”
Listening to the dissatisfaction and pleading of his clansmen, Su Guichu closed his eyes in despair and lamented weakly, “Jiaobai, I hope that after you go down there, don’t blame me and your grandmother. For the sake of the lives of Su family, I can only sacrifice you!” At the same time, Su Jiaobai was taken to another room. She was forced to change into a robe. Under the heavy makeup, she looked a little coquettish. At first glance, she looked like the ghost bride in the movies and television dramas. At first glance, she could not help but feel a little creepy. She wore a gold ring and a jade bracelet on her hands. Her hair was also covered with all kinds of gold hairpins and jade hairpins. Every piece of jewelry was dazzling and valuable! The middle-aged woman who dressed her up was an embalmer who specialized in makeup for the dead. Looking at the face in the mirror that even she could not recognize, Su Jiaobai shed tears of despair and helplessness. She had dreamed countless times that one day, she would wear a white wedding dress and enter the palace of marriage with her beloved man to spend the rest of their life together. However, she never dreamed that one day, she would marry a dead man! It was not that she had never thought of dying, but if she died just like that, the lives of more than a dozen people in Su family would be buried with her. The memories of the days when she lived with Chen Fan in the thatched cottage kept appearing in Su Jiaobai’s mind. Her entire heart seemed to be pierced by countless needles, and it was incomparably painful. Since she had already gotten her certificate with Chen Fan, she was his wife. She was his person in life and his ghost in death! Even if she died, she would never allow herself to marry a dead person! In the blink of an eye, it was noon.

Chapter 23 Hell Marriage
The Zhang family arranged a mourning hall and a wedding hall in the front and back hall. The front hall was a wedding hall, and the back hall was a mourning hall. In the mourning hall, Su family and the others, who were wearing mourning clothes, were forced to kneel in front of Old Master Zhang’s coffin and kowtow eighty-one times. After the memorial ceremony, the next step was to hold the wedding. Su
family and the others were left in the back hall to guard Old Master Zhang. Between the front and back hall, a red carpet paved a one-meter wide and twenty-four-meter long path. After the marriage ceremony was completed, the bride would be sent to the coffin together through this path. At this moment, the two sides of the wedding hall were full of people. Apart from the Zhang family, there were also the Zhang family’s relatives and friends who were there to watch the ceremony. Xiao Long was also among them. “The auspicious time has arrived. The marriage has begun!” The housekeeper, Zhang Jian, shouted loudly, “The memorial tablet of the old master!” As Zhang Jian’s voice fell, Old Master Zhang’s eldest son, the head of the family, Zhang Zhengqi, slowly walked to the center of the wedding hall with his father’s memorial tablet in his hands. “The bride is in the hall!” Zhang Jian shouted again. At this time, everyone looked at the side door and saw two middle-aged women dressed in festive clothes, holding a phoenix crown and a veil over Su Jiaobai’s head, walking towards the wedding hall. “Let go of me! I don’t want to marry a dead person!” Su Jiaobai kept struggling to resist, shouting at the top of her lungs. Her voice was already hoarse from crying. Soon, she was dragged to the hall of the wedding. Su Jiaobai looked at the memorial tablet in Zhang Zhengqi’s hand and immediately murmured with a frightened expression, “I don’t want to marry a dead person. I don’t want to marry a dead person!” The next moment, she suddenly burst out all the strength in her body. She shook off the middle-aged women on the left and right and ran toward the gate. novelbin
“Want to run?”
The Zhang family, the third brother, Zhang Zhengsong, rushed forward and blocked Su Jiaobai’s way. Then he immediately slapped her.
“Pa!” In the hall, an extremely crisp slap sounded. Su Jiaobai was slapped to the ground, and the veil on her head also fell down. For a moment, a stunning and peerless face appeared in front of everyone. Many people revealed amazed and regretful looks. Such a devastatingly beautiful woman was about to die. It was really a pity! In the face of the cold and ruthless eyes around her, Su Jiaobai suddenly felt dizzy, as if she saw countless ghosts waving at her. “I beg you, I beg you, please don’t let me marry a
dead person!” She knelt on the floor and kept kowtowing to the people around her, praying that someone could stand up and uphold justice for her. However, in response to her, there was only ruthless ridicule and cold eyes. At this time, Zhang Zhengsong walked forward, picked her up, and slapped her again. He said fiercely, “If you dare to resist again, I will kill Su family and let them die with my father!”
