The Lady's Sickly Husband

C1. Rushed Marriage

The surroundings were filled with noise and gossip, while a festive and ancient tune permeated in the air.

Awakened by the chaotic sounds, Mo Qian Xue faintly sensed someone's hands holding her back, while a dull ache spread throughout her body. Also, there seemed to be a delicate cloth covering her face...

Mo Qian Xue had an impulse to tear off the annoying cloth and open her eyes so she could see what was going on.

However, at this time, a severe pain suddenly overwhelmed her body, depriving her of the strength to open her eyes. She could only lay powerlessly as the stranger roughly carried her away.

Is this a dream?

Why does it feel so realistic?

Without knowing how much time had passed, she felt the stranger who carried her come to a full stop. Along with his action, the sound of surrounding footsteps also ceased.

Within the noise, Mo Qian Xue heard the voices of several people.

"Bao Zhang**, Ning Xiaoqing is already too sick to awaken, and this woman also seems to be approaching her death. With their condition.......how can they possibly go through the marriage?

This dream, it's too strange! Mo Qianxue lost her consciousness and fell asleep...

When she awoke in the morning, her body was still aching in pain. The woman shook her head and opened her eyes, when suddenly she was caught by surprise!

This......is not her home-a dark room, red curtains, some gray worn down wooden furniture, and......two veiled women standing by the side.

In her astonishment, Mo Qian Xue nervously raised her hand. Hold it! This......This is definitely not my hand!

The hand had long slender fingers, skin as white as jade, and a delicate texture that was not likely to be found in a girl without class.

Is it....

Did she transmigrate?

Unable to accept reality, Mo Qian Xue couldn't help but scream, causing the two women to jump in surprise.

"Lady Ning, did you wake up?"

Although the woman who was dressed in Tsing Yi felt frightened, she quickly set aside her work and came to the Lady's side.

The sight of the stranger caused Mo Qian Xue to momentarily forget her pain. She put down her right hand and struggled to sit up. There was a noticeable tremble in her voice.

"This, what is this..."

As she felt around, it seemed as if her right hand wasn't resting on a firm bed, but rather, on something soft and elastic. She turned around only to find that a man was lying beside her.

She quickly withdrew her hand and stood up in panic, pointing shakily to the man on the bed before staring at the maid.

"H-he, he.....Who is he?"

"He is your husband!"

Mo Qian Xue stared wide eyed at the man she pointed to. She then turned around slowly as she trembled. Her tongue enunciated, word for word...

"My.....husband?"

Did Buddha open his eyes! Was she sent to another time period so she could have a husband?

Suddenly, the other lady in the room opened up and spoke impatiently to the younger maiden, "Fang Fangzi, now that Lady Ning has woken up without any problems, I'll be leaving her to you care. My family's pig hasn't been fed yet so I'll be heading back first." The lady who just spoke gave Mo Qian Xue a strange look as if she were a ghost. After leaving some instructions to the maiden Fang Fangzi, she turned and quickly left the scene.
