Chapter 241: Chapter 240: Ghost

Wang Sanlang was taken to the old lady's Hengshou Pavilion in the late afternoon, disguised as a distant relative from the countryside. He was hidden in a small room in the backyard. The person who received him, hid him and relayed his messages was Mrs. Tan, the old woman who limped and served the old lady.

Initially, Mrs. Tan instructed him to sneak into the Rose Courtyard at night. He was to use sleeping powder to subdue everyone and consummate the marriage with that young maid. She mentioned, once they were bound by the fact of marriage, the old lady would arrange for her to marry him, and would add a generous dowry as well.
