While in the Red House, Yang Xuming discovered a strange place.

The family relationship of this family of four seems to be weird.

The mother was disgusted by the two daughters, and the father disappeared after the incident.

Logically speaking, since the mother has become a ghost, then the father should have the same fate.

Why didn’t I see my father in the red house?

There must be a lot of things that happened three years ago that Yang Xuming did not know.

Facing Yang Xuming’s question, the old man was silent for a while.

Then he said, “I don’t know what happened three years ago.”

“It rained heavily in those few days, and I didn’t go out much. I didn’t know that your cousin’s family had an accident until the police came to see me.”

Yang Xuming was a little surprised, “The police came to the door… Did they first find out that something happened to my cousin’s house?”

The old man shook his head, “No, they just found a corpse who committed suicide by jumping off a cliff near Meihua Mountain. That corpse belongs to your cousin.”

“In order to investigate the family situation of the deceased, they came here, only to find that your cousin’s family is missing, and there is no one in the entire red house.”

“At first everyone thought it was your cousin who took two daughters out of the house, or went back to the country. But then they couldn’t find out the whereabouts of the three of them at all, so they could only be characterized as missing.”

The old man’s words made Yang Xuming a little confused, “Huh? Cousin committed suicide by jumping off a cliff? Isn’t his family of four missing?”

The old man said, “Only the police know about your cousin’s suicide by jumping off a cliff, and he didn’t tell it in the town. So everyone is rumoring that all four of his family are missing.”

“Actually, only your cousin and the others are missing. Your cousin is definitely dead.”

Yang Xuming hurriedly asked, “Why did Cousin jump off a cliff to commit suicide? Did he get any stimulation?”

“…” Hearing Yang Xuming’s question, the old man was silent.

After a while, the expression on his face was a bit bitter.

“It’s probably overwhelmed by the burden of life… Your cousin has been living very hard all these years. Something happened at that time, and he probably committed suicide if he couldn’t think about it for a while.”

Yang Xuming looked confused, “Uncle cousin is very hard? Teacher Wei, can you tell me? What happened to uncle cousin…”

The old man sighed and glanced at Yang Xuming, “How much do you know about your cousin’s past?”

“Uh… when I was very young, I seemed to have met once,” Yang Xuming said with a dry smile, “other than that, there is no image.”

The old man smiled bitterly, “Then let me start from the beginning…”

“You came to the vicinity of the red house yesterday. Did you find anything strange about the red house?” the old man asked.

“Strange place…” Yang Xuming thought for a while, and said, “The second floor of that red house doesn’t seem to be decorated? And there doesn’t seem to be windows on the first floor? It’s completely closed?”

The old man nodded, “Almost…but there is no decoration on the second floor, which is not a strange thing.”

“There are many houses of this kind in rural Guizhou. Young people go out to work to make money, but they don’t make enough money to repair the houses at once, so they will repair a little when they come back every year.”

“Building layer by layer and decorating layer by layer is normal.”

“But there is no window on the first floor of your cousin’s house, which actually has a lot to do with your cousin.”

Yang Xuming’s heart moved slightly, “Auntie? What does it have to do with her…”

The old man said, “Do you know that your cousin has two daughters? Although I don’t care much now, in the past, he was considered a superbirth.”

“Guizhou used to be the hardest-hit area for over-birth, so family planning here is also very strict.”

“The time when your cousin was young was when the family planning work was the most demanding.”

“A lot of women who have superbirths just go to the market, they will be forcibly arrested and taken to the ring.”

“And even if you don’t go to the town to go to the market, it’s not safe to stay at home.”

“Every once in a while, the Family Planning Commission organizes people to go to the countryside. Every time there are as few as 20 or 30 people, and as many as 40 or 50 people.”

“They swept from village to village, visiting people who had passed their births but did not sterilize and did not pay fines.”

“In those days, the rural areas of Guizhou were full of tiled houses. When these people who caught supernatural beings got there, if they couldn’t find anyone or could not hide in the house, they would just lift the tiles and smash the things outside the house.”

“If you have cattle and sheep in your house, you will take your cattle and sheep away, and then you will be returned to you after you go to the town for sterilization or pay a fine.”

“In those days, the phrase [the person who arrested the family planning came] was a terrible scare that scared the children from crying.”

“Therefore, in order to avoid these people, many super-born families hid directly in caves and lived for a year or a half.”

“Guizhou is a karst landform with many caves in the mountains.”

“In order to avoid family planning, your cousin’s family lived in a cave for two years when the second child was born.”

“Jiang Yun told me that in those two years, their family of three plus the newly born Xiao Xin’er, let alone go to the town to go to the market, even the village did not dare to go back, completely isolated from the world.”

“Your aunt has a weak temper and can’t bear this kind of fear. She lived in a cave for two years, and she was afraid of being caught by a family planning person every day. In addition, the cave was dark and closed and lived in it for many years, your cousin In fact, it’s already a mental disorder.”

“Later they left the cave and didn’t hide, but your aunt has never recovered.”

“She feels like she is living in her own closed world. Outsiders say hello to her, and she will hardly respond.”

“Even if her family members call her, she is as indifferent.”

“Although you live as a family, your cousin seems to be completely independent and closed.”

“She gets up every day, cooks and sleeps by herself. She only cooks and eats by herself. She doesn’t care about her daughter and husband at all.”

“She never communicates with the outside world, she talks to herself every day.”

“And also afraid of light…”

When the old man said this, he shook his head bitterly, “It seems that I have lived in a cave for a long time, and I am used to the dark and enclosed environment. Once the light is stronger, she will be noisy and scream like crazy.”

“That’s why when your cousin built the house, the first floor was completely closed. There were no windows on the first floor, just to take care of your cousin.”

“In other words, your cousin has been supporting a family on his own for so many years.”

“Because of your cousin, all the expenses in this family can only depend on your cousin… so he said that his burden is very heavy.”
