My name is Shangguan Midnight. I am sixteen years old this year. My grandfather named me Midnight because I was born at twelve o'clock. To be honest, I don't like this name because it is not feminine. But I am a girl.

After the school bell rang, my friend Tian Cong and I were still doing homework in the classroom. We didn’t want to miss our grandfather’s story when we went home, and we didn’t want to stay up late.

"Dong!"

"Dong!"

“…”

After the school bell rang seven times, my heart couldn't help but tighten. It must be fast, be fast!

Then, he rushed home with the power of a hundred meters of sprint.

Twenty minutes later...

I wiped my sweaty forehead, looked at my watch, and the corners of my mouth curled slightly. It was just right. We rushed into the military compound five kilometers away from the school. We looked at the timer in our hands three seconds slower than Tian Cong. We saw neighbors walking into my house with snacks and wine one after another. Tian Cong and I looked at each other and smiled.

When I entered the door, I saw a row of delicious food on the table beside my mother. I couldn't help but swallow my saliva, and the greedy man immediately hooked up. The two of them grabbed the bread and stuffed it into their mouths.

"No, no hurry, no hurry, no one will snatch you!" My mother's urgent voice rang in front of me.

"I'm almost starving to death," said my mouth chewing the noodles in my mouth.

"The eating habits are too ugly, be careful not to get married." A slightly teasing voice sounded from behind, undoubtedly my slutty cousin.

"You have to care!!!" I retorted unconvincedly.

"Dong...Dong...Dong..."

The ancient bell sounds are like sounds traveling through ancient times, and are detergents to cleanse impetuousness and noise.

The clock's pointer points to 7:30...

The lively attic became extremely quiet after the bell rang at 7:30, and even had a strange feeling. The old man, who was nearly 80 years old, walked in with a gray-green dragon-head crutch in his hand, and his longan eyes shone with a faint green light in the vague night.

This is my grandfather, Shangguan Long.

Grandpa walked into the study on time with a cane, looking at everyone with a kind smile, and the ancient notepad in his hand attracted everyone's attention.

Every day at 7:30, almost everyone in the military compound would sit here and listen to my grandfather telling some strange stories, at least in my eyes.

Regarding the boring evening life, Grandpa’s story reverses the flavoring agent of life, and when you are happy, you also make yourself full of curiosity.

Grandpa slowly walked to his rattan chair, slowly opened the old notepad, and a low voice echoed in the attic.

The story told by grandpa began today...

There is only No. 1413 Yinyang Street on Huangquan Road. Legend: The Reincarnation Apartment No. 1414 will only appear at midnight. The lost soul will come there under the guidance of the dark green light. Ghosts can make deals with him. People with strong desires in their hearts can also come to the apartment at midnight. Rumors say: The boss there was once a descendant of the royal family, some people say he was the ever-winning general, and some people say he was the helper of the King of Hell, who specializes in sucking ghosts. No one knows his age, and few people have seen his true face. His only hobby seems to be sitting in the corner, looking at the empty night and the twinkling stars in the sky. Until the sun comes out, he disappears into the first ray of sunshine in the morning with the apartment.

At three o'clock in the morning, the woman walked on the quiet street and pushed open the door of the Reincarnation Apartment No. 1414 with trembling.

After the wind chime on the door rang, the owner's voice rang out from the corner: "Welcome to Huanhui Apartment, I am the boss here."

"Can you help me right?" The woman's eyes were filled with hazy tears, and there were heartbreaking prayers in her eyes.

"Of course, what do you want?" The man who claimed to be a boss stood up slowly from the corner.

"I want to live, live, I shouldn't die, why is it me, why is it me-" the woman screamed almost hysterically.

"Everything in the world has cause and effect."

"Please..."

"A thousand ghost hairs, one drop of ghost tears, ten taels of ghost blood." The boss glanced at the woman lightly and said calmly.

"Okay!" The woman answered neatly.

"Have you thought about it?" the boss asked.

As the name suggests, ghost hair, thousands of ghost hairs and the dewdrops on the red red shore flower can become black pearls after one week of refining. Black pearls are considered to be traded in the ghost market. Black pearls are the lowest-class pearls in the ghost market. Although they are not precious, they are shiny and harmonious. They are used to bribe little ghosts and inquire about news. Ghost tears are used for many purposes, such as bribing Meng Po, and refining ghost pills, etc....

But these thousand ghost hairs plus this drop of ghost tears and ten taels of ghost blood are cruel for the little ghost who just entered the underworld: when the body is corrupt, it is the day when the soul is scattered...

"Well! I've thought about it, boss, help me!"

The boss sighed quietly and murmured softly, "Disturbating my right and wrong, entering my reincarnation, is it a sin or fate, the sin of the seven killings..."

A piece of rice paper and a brush with the "Soul Trade Contract" soon appeared in front of the woman.

The woman trembledly picked up the brush and signed her name - Lu Caiyue.

The moment I put my writing down, the colorful moon turned into a wisp of blue smoke, and disappeared with the night.

Reincarnation Apartment, as the name suggests, is reincarnation, the flow of time...

The spring of 1972 was calm and peaceful, with gentle wind and quiet water.

Wang Wenli is a woman with a very bookish temperament. Maybe the text editors are so faint, but many people say that there is a fairy spirit that others don’t have. After the editing work is completed, she often sits in the corner of the office and drinks Dahongpao, occasionally watching "Dream of Red Mansions" and "The Legend of Yongzheng". This is her favorite lifestyle.

Lu Wenguang is the logistics director of the municipal government. His father Lu Yuan is a pig slaughter. Even he himself thought he would take over his father's pig slaughter shop. Unexpectedly, he picked up a big advantage and became the logistics director of the government, so he never forced anything and just be happy in everything.

When Wang Wenli got off work from the editorial department, it was almost six o'clock, so she decided not to go home for dinner. She came to her favorite "Zuoai" coffee shop, followed the waiter to the dining table in the corner, ordered her favorite desserts and drinks, and then picked up the newspaper beside her and read it. Before she could read it, the newspaper was rudely taken away by one hand. Wang Wenli was a little angry: "Sir, I read the newspaper first."

"Miss, I bought the newspaper. I haven't said anything yet. How can you, a girl, touch others' things?" Lu Wenguang was eating steak, making a loud noise. He didn't like Western restaurants. The reason is simple: only a few cents for a fast food restaurant, he can not only eat enough, but also pack it home. People who eat here must be suckers or rich people. If it weren't for the welfare voucher issued by the unit, it would be useless. He wouldn't have to come to such a waste of money.

"You..." Wang Wenli was speechless for a moment, and she didn't understand how such a rude person could appear in such an elegant occasion.

"What are you? There are so many people at get off work now. The waiter asked me if I can sit here one more person. I told him there was no problem. Who knew that when I came back from the bathroom, I saw a woman taking my newspaper, which was quite fierce." Lu Wenguang hated such "cultural people" the most and always pretended.

Wang Wenli was very annoyed for this meal. She scolded others for no reason. Just thinking about something upset, Wang Wenli walked into the dark alley, which was a relatively close journey to home. At this time, Wang Wenli was still thinking about the things that made her angry just now, but did not notice that a little hooligan had quietly approached her unprepared self. In the darkness, the hooligan's voice seemed particularly loud: "Don't move, take out the money."

Wang Wenli was startled, and was stunned for a while, instinctively protected her backpack with her hands, and began to scream: "Ah~~~What are you going to do, help..."

The harsh screams still attracted the attention of a man. The hero who came to save the beauty beat the gangster away in a few seconds. After panic, Wang Wenli noticed that this man was actually the one who was scrambling the newspaper with her.

Fate is often like this. Two seemingly unrelated people always meet in the dark and fall in love. It is very old-fashioned but very real...

In 1973, two people entered the palace of marriage with the blessings of many people. The days after the wedding were not passionate or romance. Some were food, food, oil and salt, and some were trivial matters in life. Lu Wenguang was a very careful man. His life was very happy in every detail...

Lu Wenguang's father Lu Yuan is a man who prefers boys over girls. Even his own wife, Lu Wenguang's mother, suffered heavy bleeding and died after giving birth to her son, and Lu Yuan did not shed a single tear.

A year later, Wang Wenli became pregnant, which made Lu Wenguang so happy that he was busy helping his wife do laundry and cook every day.

What made Wang Wenli most happy was that when she went to the hospital for prenatal check-up, she actually had twins. This news made Lu Wenguang so happy that he couldn't stop talking.

Lu Yuan said distractedly: "Don't be happy too early, it's not too late for my son to be happy."

In 1974, Wang Wenli gave birth to a twin daughters in the Maternal and Child Health Hospital. The joy did not last long. The doctor came to the couple with his twin daughters in his arms. The moment Wang Wenli saw the child, tears were like a flood that broke through the dam and could not stop it.

"Why should I treat my daughter like this? Why--"

Wang Wenli raised her weak body that had just given birth and sat blankly in front of the operation door. Her already pale face was now a little transparent.

After the conjoined baby was pushed into the operating room, Lu Yuan, who had been silent, spoke at this time: "I just said, it's not too late to be happy when I have a son. Look at you, what's so uncomfortable about the two girls? Humph, you two unfilial descendants, our Lu family will be the last one." After that, Lu Yuan left the hospital without looking back.

Tick, Tick, Tick...

More than a dozen hours have passed.

In the corridor, Lu Guangdi leaned against the wall behind him, and a large amount of sweat stain was printed on the wall.

"despair!"

The red lights in the operating room went out, and the door opened a few minutes later.

"Who is the patient's family?" The young nurse in green screamed in her hurry.

"Nurse, I...I...I, I am the father of the child, how are my child?"

"The two children share one kidney. Now the shared kidney can only be given to one child, whether to the sister or sister?" The young nurse looked anxious.

Wang Wenli's eyes moved slightly, and she bit her lower lip tightly, and tears still burst down like a dam.

"this……"

"Hurry up! It's almost too late." The young nurse looked at the clock from time to time.

Lu Wenguang closed his eyes tiredly and said word by word, "Give it to me, sister!"

As soon as Lu Wenguang finished speaking, the door of the operating room closed again.

Lu Wenguang couldn't bear to look at his wife, so he turned around and took out a cigarette. The smoke covered Lu Wenguang's face with a layer of blurred gauze, and he couldn't see the expression on his face.

I just felt a lot older in an instant...

It's another ten hours...

"despair!"

"Family, the operation is very successful!" Lu Wenguang finally breathed a sigh of relief from the official doctor's language of the machinery.

Wang Wenli smiled weakly, her eyes turned black, and she fainted directly in Lu Guangwen's arms.

Lu Wenguang looked at his wife lying in his arms with distress, and walked back to the ward with his wife in his arms.

When Lu Wenguang held his two children, his eyes were wet.

Lu Wenguang named his sister. His sister was called Lu Cailian and his sister was called Lu Caiyue.

As time goes by, the two sisters grow up gradually.

Lu Caiyue did not have any symptoms because of missing a kidney, and she didn't even get sick all year round.

As time goes by, the two sisters grow up gradually, and the naughty Cailian and Caiyue always exchange identities, which makes Wang Wenli unable to tell the difference. Although she occasionally hears Lu Yuan’s complaints, she can be ignored in a happy life.
To be continued...
