Chapter 229 Ghost
There is a scholar surnamed Fan who lives in an inn. After dinner, light the light and go to bed, close your eyes and refresh yourself. Suddenly, a maid came, holding a package, a dressing box, a mirror and other items in her hand, put them on the table one by one, and turned away. Suddenly, a young woman came out of the room, put on makeup in the mirror, combed her hair, and plugged in a hairpin. She was busy for a long time and was very happy.
After a while, the footsteps sounded, and the previous maid returned. This time, she brought a basin of hot water and a towel. The young woman reached into the basin, washed her face with water, and the maidservant served beside her. After washing her face, the maid left.
The young woman opened the package, took out her new clothes and shoes, dressed up, and applied grease and powder on her face. Fan Shusheng thought to himself, "This must be an eloped woman. She is dressed so beautifully that she must go to have a private meeting with her lover."
After dressing up, the young woman took out a long belt, hung it on the beam, tied a knot, then stood on the bench, put her head into the knot, and hung it calmly. Just once, my eyes were closed and my breath was cut off. After the young woman died, her eyebrows were raised upside down, her tongue was stretched out, her feet were more than two inches long, and her face was pale and bleak, like a devil.
Fan Shusheng was terrmented and hurriedly escaped from the guest room and said to the shopkeeper, "Dead, dead." The shopkeeper came into the house to check, and the young woman was nowhere to be found. The shopkeeper turned pale and said, "My daughter-in-law used to hang herself here. Is that the woman just now?"
