472 Madam Zhao Recovers Her Memory 4
Actually, she didn’t really want to go, but Qi Xinyue said that she had to go. She was praying that she would be happy in the future and that she had to personally go and ask for the marriage fortune.
The nanny persuaded her not to go. There was deep worry in the nanny’s eyes. She said, “Young Lady, with such an engagement, why are you worried that you won’t be happy in the future? If you want to pray for blessings, why don’t you go and ask for a child-sending lot after marriage?”
She blushed. She felt that it made sense.
But when the day came, Qi Xinyue still came to call her. She was extremely gentle. She stroked her cheek and said gently, “Time really flies. You’ve grown up. That temple has your mother’s longevity token. Go and pay your respects.”!!
She couldn’t refuse this reason, so in just a few breaths, she changed her mind and decided to go.
The nanny and maidservants wanted to stop her, but there was no time or opportunity. She avoided their worried gazes and left the residence with Qi Xinyue.
Only she and Qi Xinyue left the residence. The path gradually became deserted.
Qi Xinyue’s expression was very cold.
After the carriage had traveled for four hours, she was already panicking. She asked worriedly, “Mother, haven’t we arrived yet?”
She had always called Qi Xinyue mother.
She asked. Qi Xinyue looked at her coldly and suddenly reached out to pinch her chin. She was not afraid of hurting her at all. She heard Qi Xinyue’s cold and disgusted voice. “Don’t call me Mother. I didn’t give birth to you.”
‘Do you know how much I hate you? What right do you have to be married to such a good man? What will happen to my daughter in the future? She won’t have such a good marriage. Won’t she be suppressed by you for the rest of her life?’
“How can you be so lucky? You jinxed your mother to death when you were born. You shouldn’t have lived. You still want to marry into a good family. Do you think you’re worthy?”
Qi Xinyue’s expression suddenly changed. She was terrified.
She cried. She begged for mercy and admitted her mistake.
The carriage stopped. Qi Xinyue grabbed her hair and pulled her out of the carriage. She saw more than ten fierce men. They were very dark and had fierce eyes. They had many scars.
Qi Xinyue took out the money box and gave it to them. She said fiercely, “Take her away. The further away from the capital, the better.”
She cried in fear and helplessness as she begged, “Mother, don’t do this to me. I beg you. I don’t want to marry the Sun family anymore. I don’t want to marry him, okay?”
No amount of pleading would help.
Qi Xinyue pushed her away fiercely. She fell into the grass by the roadside. She didn’t know what had pierced her palm, but the pain was far less than the panic in her heart.
Qi Xinyue kicked her away and turned to leave mercilessly.
The few servants who drove the carriage realized that something was wrong with the stone platform and wanted to escape. However, they were chased by the bandits and killed with two slashes.
She wanted to run, too, but she was caught before she could take more than two steps. They pulled her roughly onto the horse and then quickly left.
The fierce horse galloped, and her cries for help were drowned out by the rapid wind.
She heard a bandit laugh and say, “This woman is really fair. She’s a noble lady from an official’s family. We’re lucky.”
“Cut the crap. Let’s run for a while first. Mrs. Yan said that her maternal grandfather’s troops were heavy. If we don’t run far, we’ll be tracked down and caught. Only death awaits us. If we want to enjoy the woman, we’ll circle around the three cities and five counties. Anyway, she’s in our hands. We can do whatever we want. When we get tired of playing with her, we’ll find a corner to sell it and earn some money from drinking.”
When her memories reappeared, Madam Zhao was frightened. She was the same as Yan Mian. She was scared to death.
Her heart was filled with fear.
Madam Zhao felt very pained because she had experienced all of this.
In the past, she was Yan Mian. She suffered all this. She thought about it countless times. How did she get to Furongzhou? She passed by so many counties and finally arrived at the Southern Mountain Village.
Now that the truth was right in front of her, she had to unravel them one by one. She was in extreme pain.
She fell into tears. For some reason, the running horses stopped.
Madam Zhao felt a splitting headache. She knew that this was because of her. She was afraid and retreated, so that part of her memory stopped moving forward.
She felt so painful. It was as if someone was hammering her head with a heavy hammer. It hurt so much that she wanted to die.
She knew she shouldn’t stop.
Madam Zhao kept chanting in her heart. This was in the past. It was in the past. Her future was very happy. She had four children, all of whom were very outstanding. The eldest son is a high scholar, the second son was the top scorer, the third daughter was betrothed to the Crown Prince, and the youngest daughter was a divine doctor.
After repeating it over and over again, she finally let that part of her memory continue to move forward.
The bandits brought her along and they traveled day after day. Her voice was already hoarse from shouting. She seemed to be sick and could not tell day from night. She felt uncomfortable all over.
When she stopped, she heard the bandits say, “We’ve run far enough. We can have a good rest and enjoy ourselves.”
Madam Zhao’s heart tightened. Yan Mian was weak and frightened. There were tears in her eyes. When her eyes met Madam Zhao’s, Madam Zhao felt that she could not move at all. Her head was splitting, her throat seemed to be smoking, and her vision was blurry.
She heard heavy footsteps and unbearable laughter. Her blurry vision followed her tears and rolled down her face. She suddenly became clear-headed and saw the bandits walking towards her.
At this moment, she became Yan Mian. She no longer looked at these memories from the perspective of others. She was experiencing it.
She started to forget everything about being Madam Zhao and completely became the 17-year-old Yan Mian.
She could feel all the fear and uneasiness in her heart.
She had already retreated to the corner of the wall. She wanted to die.
However, she was too weak and did not even have the strength to bite off her tongue.
The bandit stepped forward and tore open her clothes. However, he cursed in disgust, “F*ck, why is this woman’s body rotten?”
Someone grabbed her hair and let go in disgust.
She looked down and saw that her body was covered in abscesses for some reason. She smelled a stench, the stench of pus and blood. Her undergarments were even adhered to the abscesses.
The bandit tore open her clothes and stained his hand with pus and blood. He was disgusted and raised his hand angrily, but he stopped.
They were all cursing, “Why are there so many abscesses? How can we do this? It’s so disgusting to be covered in abscesses and blood.”
“She’s on her last breath. She probably won’t be able to live. F*ck, no one would like her even if I sell her.”
“We’ve brought a burden all the way here. If we kill her like this, it will be in vain. Let’s find a human trafficker and sell her. Every coin counts. Hurry up, before she rots to death.”
Because of an unknown abscess, she kept her innocence, but what awaited her fate?
The next day, she was sold to a human trafficker for 200 copper coins. He was unwilling to pay more than that.
He was afraid that if he bought her and she died in his hands, it would be a waste of money. The bandits were also afraid that if they did not sell her and she died in their hands, it would be a waste of so much effort. The human trafficker had also said that he could treat her first. After treating her, the price would at least be several times higher. However, no one was willing to treat her, so the bandits sold her in the end.
She was chased into the cage cart by the human trafficker, along with some other people whose bodies were in tatters.
