“Honey, why aren’t you resting at the hotel?”

“Who is this old gentleman?”

Hu Liang quickly stood up and went over to welcome him, looking at the old man with a puzzled expression.

“The house is in such a big mess,” said Hu Liang’s girlfriend, Pan Yueling. “Do you think 1 can rest well?”

“This is Grandpa Jiang from the neighboring village. He pitied us and decided to tell us the truth.”

This morning, Pan Yueling felt uneasy.

She was worried that Hu Liang, who was staying alone, would be in danger, so she decided to leave the hotel and return to accompany him.

Pan Yueling was depressed as she took the bus back to the countryside.

The house they had spent all their savings on was a haunted house.

There were ghost cries, a woman’s shadow on the wall, and all kinds of accidents encountered by the renovation workers.

Memories started surging.

She was mistreated by her superior when working in the city.

When she chose to live in seclusion as a streamer, she was threatened by evil ghosts.

Pan Yueling squatted under a tree and cried.

Coincidentally, Grandpa Jiang from the neighboring village had to go to the city to do something.

He couldn’t help but comfort Pan Yueling when he saw her crying.

Grandpa Jiang sighed when he learned about the ghosts in the old mansion.

He told Pan Yueling a sad love story.

More than a hundred years ago, a girl in the village fell in love with the young master of the mansion.

One was the daughter of a tenant farmer, and the other was the young master of a prominent family.

The two of them had great differences in status, and their love had gone through many trials.

The young master had gone to school and was very open-minded.

They believed that love was a matter between two people and that secular etiquette could not separate them.

No matter how his family tried to stop him, they could not dispel his love for the girl.

The woman wouldn’t take compromises, and it was clear that she would not marry anyone other than him.

If she were forced into a corner, she would throw herself into the river.

Even so, their parents did not agree to their marriage.

Not long after, the young master’s grandfather in the provincial capital was seriously ill, and the family wanted to visit him.

Before they left, the young master and the girl made a private vow of eternal love.

He swore he would elope with the girl when he returned from the provincial capital.

At that time, the Qing Empire was on the verge of collapse.

Anyone could see that the world was about to change.

With the skills he learned in his new school, the young master would definitely be able to let the young lady live a good life.

After the young master’s family went to the provincial capital, the girl stood on the hill every day, looking forward to her lover’s return.

This wait lasted for more than three months.

Before the young master’s family could return, the girl’s stomach gradually grew bigger.

The young lady’s and the young master’s secret marriage immediately became the shame of the entire village.

Not only was she chased out of the house by her parents, but even the village refused to let her stay.

The pregnant girl built a shack on the hill.

She waited for the young master to come back.

A few months later, someone finally returned to the mansion.

He brought bad news to the girl.

In order to give the old man a celebration that could wash away his illness, under the arrangement of his family, the young master married a young lady from another wealthy family in the provincial capital.

The servants returned to clean the mansion ahead of time to welcome the young mistress back.

One stormy night, the girl hung herself on a small mountain with her child.

A few years after the girl passed away, the mansion began to be haunted.

Whenever there was a thunderstorm, the people in the old mansion would see the girl’s spirit…

“Sigh.”

After Pan Yueling finished telling the sad story of the girl and the young master, Grandpa Jiang sighed.

“Dr. Chen?!”

Pan Yueling’s eyes glowed as she looked at Chen Yu, who was sitting on the armchair.

At the same time, she saw Zhou Kexin sitting beside him.

“Sister Zhou, why are you here?”

“Hello,” Zhou Kexin said with a smile. “Dr. Chen and 1 are here to help your family solve the problem.”

After introducing herself as Chen Yu’s nurse, Zhou Kexin hurriedly asked Pan Yueling about the matter.

Could the woman they saw on the wall be the poor girl who hanged herself more than a hundred years ago?

“It should be her.”

Pan Yueling glanced at Grandpa Jiang behind her.

According to Grandpa Jiang, the girl had a beauty mole on her face.

When she hung herself, she was wearing an emerald green cheongsam.

The woman Pan Yueling and Hu Liang saw on the stormy night wore a cheongsam.

Although they did not see the color of the cheongsam, he could see the woman’s face clearly.

She faintly recalled that there was a beauty mole at the corner of her eye.

“I’m so stupid. Why didn’t 1 think of looking for you earlier?”

“If we had invited Dr. Chen earlier, Hu Liang and I wouldn’t have been on tenterhooks for so long.”

Not only were Hu Liang and Pan Yueling streamers, but they were also fans of Chen Yu.

“Honey, can we talk about serious matters first?”

Seeing his girlfriend chatting happily with Zhou Kexin, Hu Liang felt like crying.

The ghost that had shrouded the house had not been resolved yet.

Why was she still in the mood to chit-chat?

He couldn’t believe his girlfriend’s big heart; she had thrown the important things to the back of her mind.

“Grandpa Jiang, I went to your village to ask someone to help repair the house. At that time, the few people 1 invited said that your village had a rule.”

“Is this the reason why the elders forbid children from approaching this place?” Thinking of how Grandpa Jiang said this place was haunted, Hu Liang thought it was very likely that it was the ghost of the poor girl from more than a hundred years ago.

“A few years after she died, this mansion started to be haunted,” Grandpa Jiang nodded and said.

“This family was worried that she would turn into a ghost and return to take their lives, so they hired a priest to exorcist the ghost.”

“Unfortunately, this girl’s resentment is too strong.”

“This family has hired more than ten exorcists.”

“None of them can suppress her ferocity.”

Grandpa Jiang, who acted like he had personally experienced the incident back then, began describing in detail the state of the family at that time.

If it weren’t for the fact that they had forced their son to marry a lady from a well-matched family, the girl would not have died with her child.

She wouldn’t turn into malicious ghosts and seek their lives.

According to the analysis of one of the exorcists, the reason the female ghost was so powerful was likely related to the child in her womb.

“The child in her stomach? What do you mean?”

Zhou Kexin asked curiously.

“One of the exorcists said that if a woman committed suicide with a child in her belly with hatred, it’s likely that she would become a powerful mother-child fiend,” explained Grandpa Jiang with a solemn expression.

Grandpa Jiang’s grandfather used to be a farmer for this family.

When he got old, he developed dementia and would often talk about his youth.

After hearing so much, Grandpa Jiang had a basic understanding of what had happened back then.

The so-called mother-child fiends were ghosts that were even more terrifying than your average malicious ghosts.

A fetus that stayed in the mother’s womb for ten months.

When the mother was about to give birth, the mother died of hatred, along with the fetus.

In this way, a powerful aura of resentment would create a great evil fiend.

Exorcists from all walks of life were defeated here, one after another.

If they wanted to deal with the mother-child fiend, they would have to invite experts from Mao Mountain or Longhu Mountain.

“At that time, the world was in chaos. There were small sparks of war everywhere,” said Grandpa Jiang bitterly.

“Let alone inviting an expert; even if you walk a few hundred miles, you might be robbed and killed halfway.”

“Since there was no other choice, the wealthy family moved to the provincial capital.”

“Not long after, the young master’s parents couldn’t stand the shock, and both fell ill and passed away.”

“As for that young lady, she was also sent back to her maiden home by the young master after his parents died.”

“Later, the young master returned here and dismissed all his servants. He lived alone in this old mansion until his end..”
