I Only Marry Widows-Chapter 425 - 75: The Wuzhe Assembly, Spiritual Communication

Yuyang City, Ge Family.

In the eyes of outsiders, the Ge Family had experienced a turmoil a few years back. Disciples of the Sunset Sect seemed to have fought fiercely with outsiders, and it was as if a Sword Immortal descended to the mortal realm. The entire estate was destroyed overnight.

However, like a cunning rabbit with three burrows, the Ge Family had another residence in an inconspicuous part of the city, which had been inhabited since the last great battle.

In a delicate boudoir within the residence, Luo Suyi sat by the window, gazing up at the sky with a somewhat pensive expression. It was a while before she snapped out of it and continued her needlework.

Beside her, a pair of young women with similar appearances tended to her, serving tea, pouring water, and chatting to relieve the boredom.

"Hehe, is Madam missing Master again?"

Luo Suyi just smiled faintly upon hearing their words. This pair of twin sisters were also concubines of Lu Chengfeng, named Yun Qingge and Yun Manwu. They were originally from a wealthy family, pampered and raised, possessing much simpler minds.

Over the years, they had gotten along well with Luo Suyi, like sisters, often engaging in embroidery and chatting with her to pass the time.

Seeing that Luo Suyi did not respond, Yun Qingge giggled and said, "I bet Madam is thinking of him. People say women at thirty are like wolves, and at forty are like tigers. We can barely cope, let alone Madam, who was once so affectionate with Master. It’s been so long alone, it must be very lonely..."

"You little mischief, dare to talk nonsense again, and I’ll tear your lips apart," Luo Suyi scolded with a smile, "I think you’re the one with the fluttering heart, trying to pin it on me."

Yun Qingge pouted, somewhat discontented, "How is this any different from being a living widow? Master could send Butler Chong Shan to assist us, so why can’t he come himself to take us away?"

Luo Suyi looked at the two of them, knowing they were also suffocating. Trapped daily in this small courtyard, never stepping out, and having tasted the sweetness of the past, now being alone for so long, how could they not have complaints?

Although they lacked for nothing in terms of food and clothing, their lives were worse than those of ordinary women, constantly on edge, not knowing when enemies might catch up and send them to the Yellow Springs. Coupled with the loneliness of the deep boudoir, each day was unbearable.

Even she herself, how often did she not yearn at times?

It’s just that her deep affection for Lu Chengfeng, though hard to endure, made it bearable, yet these young women, blooming and alluring, trapped here without seeing the light of day, how could they be willing?

Luo Suyi also knew that privately, some of them engaged in mutual solace at night, others brought along jade rods or statues of Mr. Horn, but she couldn’t say much about it and chose to turn a blind eye.

After all, it’s not fair to be without a man and not be allowed to resolve things oneself!

"Husband, where on earth are you now? When can we meet again."

Though Luo Suyi felt oppressed and sorrowful, she was reluctant to show it in front of others.

It had been over a year since Chong Shan arrived by order, displaying terrifying prowess, not only killing the Sunset Sect disciples who came to cause trouble but also bringing all these women to the residence.

Luo Suyi had watched as this old man who called himself the young master’s butler, led out multiple incarnations, luring away the pursuers, deceiving them, and respectfully called her Mistress.

With Chong Shan, this loyal butler, Luo Suyi’s position in the residence was unchallenged.

While lost in thought, suddenly she heard Chong Shan’s aged voice from outside the door, "Madam, news from Master has arrived; he will soon come to take Madam back."

"Please inform everyone that Master will arrive in no more than a two-hour period."

Upon hearing this, Luo Suyi was completely stunned, overwhelmed with joy and surprise. She stood up quickly and anxiously asked, "Butler Chong Shan, is what you say true?"

Chong Shan replied from outside, "Naturally, this old servant wouldn’t falsify such matters. Master will arrive soon."

Luo Suyi only felt her heart pounding wildly, momentarily at a loss, instinctively going to the mirror to examine her attire.

Beside her, Yun Qingge and Yun Manwu also showed expressions of delight in their eyes. If given the chance, who would want to remain a living widow in this house?

They hurriedly went to open the door, chattering excitedly, "Butler Chong Shan, is Master coming to take all of us away? What should we prepare?"

Chong Shan’s old face beamed with a smile, "Of course, he’s coming to take all the Madams away, no need to prepare luggage. Master has everything one might need."

"If the Madams have any personal belongings they wish to take, they should pack them quickly."

"How will Master come to pick us up? Is he using a carriage? We have many things to take, we’re not sure if they’ll fit?" the two women chattered on.

"You two, stop asking questions and go spread the news. Have everyone prepare and remember not to bring too much," Luo Suyi finally snapped back and instructed the sisters.

Yun Qingge and Yun Manwu agreed hastily and scurried out to notify others.

Luo Suyi took a deep breath, thanked Chong Shan, sent him off, and summoned the maidservants serving her.

"Prepare for my bath and change of clothes."

She didn’t bother with packing miscellaneous belongings, only thinking that, after such a long absence, she wondered whether her husband had found other women by his side.
