Before getting married, Lu Xiu 'an had thought about the happy life after getting married. However, before the happiness had even begun, it had come to an abrupt end, leaving her with the reputation of being a jinx to her husband and the heavy chastity memorial arch.
Everyone thought so. Since Lu Xiu 'an was already a widow and carried the reputation of being a jinx to her husband, she naturally had no way to remarry. Since it was impossible to remarry, then she would inherit this chastity memorial arch that symbolized five hundred years of honor.
After the clan elders of Ling 'an Town discussed it, they sent the chastity memorial arch to Lu Xiu' an's home. Before this, no one had asked Lu Xiu 'an if she wanted to inherit this chastity memorial arch. No one.
Before Lu Xiu 'an got married, her parents used the excuse of her grandfather's death to force her to observe mourning for three years. As a result, she became an old lady and had no choice but to marry Li Chungang. Now that Li Chungang was gone, Lu Xiu' an thought that her parents would not mind her reputation of being a jinx to her husband. However, what Lu Xiu 'an did not expect was that the people who cared the most about her reputation of being a jinx to her husband were her parents.
After the chastity memorial arch was sent to Lu Xiu 'an's home, Lu Xiu' an went to her parents' home to discuss countermeasures so that the clan elders could take back the chastity memorial arch. However, as soon as she spoke, she was scolded by her mother.
Her mother kept saying that she was a jinx to her husband. Since she had been given the memorial arch, then she deserved it. If she did not accept the memorial arch given to her, then the Lu family would be criticized for the rest of their lives. Lu Xiu 'an's brother was now seventeen years old and was about to get married. If her brother's marriage was delayed because of Lu Xiu' an's matter, then she, Lu Xiu 'an, would be a sinner of the Lu family. Even if she died, she would be blamed by her ancestors.
Lu Xiu 'an's temperament was very soft. Otherwise, her parents would not have used the excuse of mourning for her grandfather's death to force her to stay for three years. Now that her mother had raised the level of the problem to the ancestors, Lu Xiu' an did not dare to say no. Just like that, Lu Xiu 'an left behind this chastity memorial arch.
It would have been fine if she had guarded this memorial arch until she died alone. However, Lu Xiu 'an once accidentally heard a conversation between her parents.
It turned out that Li Chungang had taken a liking to her even before her grandfather passed away. However, at that time, her family was in financial difficulties. In order for her to do more manual work to support the family, her parents deliberately used the excuse of mourning to make Li Chungang wait for three years. What made Lv Xiu 'an most unacceptable was that before she was married, Li Chungang had already died. In order to gain the favor of the town's clan elders, her parents deliberately let her marry and become a ready-made widow. As for the chastity memorial arch, it was her parents who personally asked for it in order to gain the favor of the clan elders and find a good marriage for her younger brother.
After knowing these things, Lv Xiu 'an's heart instantly turned cold. It was her most trusted and respected parents who had pushed her step by step into this abyss.
..............................................................
. But her parents' answer made Lu Xiu 'an feel more pain than the truth.
Her parents said that without this memorial arch, with her reputation of bringing bad luck to her husband, it would be difficult for her brother to find a wife in the future.
They said it in a righteous and shameless way. Lu Xiu 'an's words were stuck in her throat. Lu Xiu' an covered her face and left.
Later, she heard that because she was liked by the elders, her brother got a good marriage. Lu Xiu 'an didn't know what happened after that.
Lv Xiu 'an had been abandoned by her own parents and had reached such a state. There was no greater sorrow than a dead heart. Lv Xiu' an's heart had died. Even if her body was healthy, it was useless. Lv Xiu 'an was dead.
She died on the winter day when her brother was about to get married.
Thanks to the memorial arch, no one discovered Lu Xiu 'an's death. It wasn't until the next spring that people found that Lu Xiu' an hadn't appeared for a long time. When they went in, they found Lu Xiu 'an's stinking corpse and the memorial arch.
Lu Xiu 'an was not reconciled. She was clearly well-behaved and sensible at home. She did whatever her parents told her to do. She even stayed at home for three years because of her parents' words. She was so well-behaved. Why did her parents still want to harm her like this?
They knew that Li Chungang was dead, but they still wanted her to marry him. It was just to let her get the memorial arch so that her brother could find a good marriage.
Even if she was already old, she could still get married. If the chastity memorial arch was a shackle, then her parents were the ones who put the shackles on her, causing her to wither at such a young age.
Lu Xiu 'an didn't enjoy any good life. She died on that cold winter day. No one found out. No one cared.
Lu Xiu 'an wanted revenge, but she couldn't because of her filial piety. Disheartened, Lu Xiu' an asked Jiujiu to live well.
She didn't want revenge. She just wanted to live. She didn't want to accept the memorial arch again. Even if she didn't get married, she wanted to live normally.
When Jiujiu opened her eyes, her eyes were bright red. She heard a sharp female voice: "The ceremony is over. Send her to the bridal chamber."
With the sound of the bridal chamber being sent to the bridal chamber, two hands pulled her arm and pulled her to the side. Vaguely, Jiujiu heard the sound of wings flapping.
After sending Jiujiu to the bridal chamber, the people who supported Jiujiu quickly left. Then the door closed. Jiujiu raised her hand and pulled down the veil. Anyway, there would be no groom. What was the use of wearing a veil?
Jiujiu waited until no one came in. Jiujiu picked up the chopsticks and ate the food on the table. Lu Xiu 'an didn't eat from the morning until now. She was so hungry that her chest was sticking to her back.
Jiujiu swept most of the food on the table. Only then did she feel full. With a long sigh of relief, Jiujiu thought about what to do next.
Three days later, the news of Li Chungang's death would come. Lu Xiu 'an's parents would volunteer to invite the memorial arch to Lu Xiu' an's house.
In her previous life, Lv Xiu 'an was killed by this Chastity Memorial Arch. If she had to say what she hated the most, it would be this Chastity Memorial Arch. Therefore, Lv Xiu' an would definitely not want it.
But since she wouldn't accept it, she naturally had to think of a way to refuse.
However, before that, Jiujiu decided to take a nap.
Lu Xiu 'an's body wasn't very good. In the past few years, in order to get the love of her parents, she worked hard to earn money. Her body was even more exhausted. After a day of torment, she couldn't hold on. Jiujiu closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep a moment later.
