During the Republic of China, the Ge family residence was still prosperous.
After the rooster crows, the Ge family house becomes lively. In the bright morning, Ge Wushang, who is only five or six years old, is taken through the courtyard by his nanny and goes to the street to buy vegetables.
At that time, when Ge Wushang went out early every morning, he would always see a little girl about his age, wearing a red coat, standing motionless at the door, staring at the Ge family's house.
Once, Ge Wushang couldn't help it anymore. When he and his wet nurse were going out to buy groceries one morning, Ge Wushang asked her, "Who are you? Why are you always staring at my house?"
The girl gave him a silly smile, said nothing, and looked at the Ge family house silently.
"Master, Master!" The wet nurse hurriedly ran over, picked up Ge Wushang and left.
Ge Wushang asked: "Nanny, who is that sister?"
The wet nurse replied: "We have a servant's child in our house. She waits here every day for her mother to get off work."
"Her mother was whipped to death by the master last month, and her body was thrown into the wild to feed the dogs. From that day on, she has been guarding here every day, from morning till night... Young Master, you must not be with that kind of person. If we play together, she has bad luck."
Later, every time Ge Wushang saw her, she stood motionless at the door, wearing the red coat from beginning to end, and her expression never changed.
Later, on a day with heavy snowfall, she was beaten out with sticks by the slaves of the Ge family house. This scene happened to be seen by Ge Wushang who was hiding at the door. She was lying on the ground, her head was beaten to a bloody mess. Snow fell all over my body.
Ge Wushang kept looking at her. After a while, the girl also raised her head and saw Ge Wushang, and the two looked at each other.
Ge Wushang remembered those eyes clearly, and he has not forgotten them until now. They were blood-red eyes, as if they were dyed that color by blood. It was so red that it almost bled, accompanied by a terrifying murderous intention...
"ah!"
Ge Wushang cried out.
Recently, he has been dreaming about these eyes frequently. He rubbed his head and looked out the window. At this time, the sky was already fish-belly white.
Ge Wushang thought to himself: "There must be a deviation in my memory at that time. After all, it happened when I was five or six years old. Now I am eighteen years old. How can I remember it so clearly? It should be because I have been thinking about too many things recently. , I always have some weird dreams."
After a while, there began to be movement outside, and Ge Wushang also got up to wash up. He was wearing a plush cloak and leaning against the door of the room to look outside.
It's another winter, and I don't know how many more winters the Ge family house can survive.
In the winter of the year before last, my father died; in the spring, my mother died again. As the only young master of the Ge family, he naturally has to take on the responsibility of running a courtyard. And none of my uncles and aunts are lazy people!
Today's Ge family residence is no longer the prosperous Ge family residence ten years ago.
Ge Wushang stood here, looking at only a few sporadic workers working lazily, and he sighed.
I'm afraid this house won't last long.
Ge Wushang walked around to the front hall and heard the sound of "crackling" calculations. When the housekeeper saw the young master coming, he quickly ran over and said respectfully to Ge Wushang: "Master, you are here."
"Ledger!" Ge Wushang spread his hands, and the housekeeper looked troubled.
"this……"
"Bring it!"
"Yes, yes." The housekeeper nodded quickly and handed him the account book. Ge Wushang flipped through a few pages. His anger had nowhere to vent, so he threw the account book to the ground and walked to the door.
At this time, Ge Wushang was furious. The Ge family house had become like this. His uncles and aunts still disagreed, thinking that as long as he was in the Ge family, the Ge family would not collapse, just like they had always relied on their father to support the Ge family house. generally.
For a moment, Ge Wushang wished that they all died!
Ge Wushang stood silently at the door. At this time, someone patted him.
Ge Wushang turned around and saw a woman wearing a water-red flower-shadow folded shirt standing behind him. In the faint morning light, he was a little frightened, but he was shocked by this woman's appearance.
She smiled brightly at Ge Wushang, and Ge Wushang asked, "Who are you?"
"Will you marry me?" She raised her red lips.
"marry you?"
"Marry me, and I will have a way to bring the Ge family house back to life. Hahaha..." She walked over to Ge Wushang, stretched out her hand and caressed Ge Wushang's face. Her body exuded such a charming fragrance that she couldn't help but think too much. Smell it a few times.
When Ge Wushang looked at her appearance, he felt familiar, as if he had met her someday in the distance. Where? I don’t remember, but it’s so familiar.
Ge Wushang was completely fascinated by her. Her name is Liu Hongjuan, she is just eighteen years old, somewhere between a girl and a woman, exuding seductive charm.
Ge Wushang was completely impressed by her beauty. Regardless of whether she could bring the Ge family house back to life, Ge Wushang was determined to marry her.
But a miracle really happened. On the third day after she came to the house, the housekeeper came in and said to Ge Wushang: "Master, master, good news. The big businessman in the east of the city is quite satisfied with the wood of our Ge family. It’s a great joy to cooperate with us!”
Ge Wushang was overjoyed and told his servants not to neglect him. He smiled at Liu Hongjuan and said, "You are so awesome. I got a big business just after I married you."
She sat in front of the mirror and applied rouge, lowered her eyes, and said slowly: "This is just the beginning."
In just three months, the Ge family residence returned to its former prosperous appearance.
One day, Ge Wushang was looking through his account books when he suddenly heard a shrill scream coming from the backyard. Ge Wushang was stunned for a moment and immediately ran out to think about what had happened, only to see a bunch of people surrounding the backyard.
Ge Wushang walked over and was about to see what happened when a man quickly grabbed Ge Wushang: "Don't go! Master, he has lost control!"
Ge Wushang ignored the servant, pushed away the crowd, and saw a man writhing in pain on the ground. His face had been twisted into something else, but Ge Wushang still recognized it as his second uncle. .
He pinched his neck so hard that his face turned the color of pig liver. White bugs were still coming out of his nostrils and crawling across his face. Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed Ge Wushang's ankle tightly and wouldn't let go!
"open!"
"Ahhhhh!"
"Master!! Help me!!!"
In panic, Ge Wushang kept stamping on his hands with his feet. He held Ge Wushang's legs and continued to grab them, shouting vaguely: "Shang'er, Shang'er..."
The second uncle's grip was very strong, and the ferocious and disgusting face came closer and closer. No one around him dared to get close, and they all hid aside timidly.
Suddenly, a thin white hand appeared behind Ge Wushang and pinched the second uncle's neck. The second uncle's eyes gradually turned from chaotic black to lighter, and finally turned into blood-red pupils - he died.
