Hex (邪)

The wind kept its promise; The moon shining far away

Your constant thoughts make me feel Oh so miserable

I go by the name of Mou Lin Sin

Can't help but recall the grande amoureuse Mai Jiuan

In the eighteenth year of the Lunar Year

At 13 Chung Gwai Sin st. in Guang Chow City

is an old mansion

Surrounding this mansion...

is a mysterious myth

The Charms originated from Fu Jien

Those who later ran the salt business...

moved to live in Guang Chow Si Kwan

Since generations, the Chans...

had either been officials or merchants

They were very wealthy

until the generation of Sau Ying

Her family was relatively small

Sau Ying was the only daughter left

To continue the lineage...

her parents acquired for her a husband

Thus Yeung Chun Yu moved into the Chan family

As the business of Sau Ying's parents failed

they subsequently died of consumption,

and the family fell into poverty!

The marriages of the time...

were influenced by the feudal system

This meant that once married, the couple...

could not part whatever the circumstances

Yeung was unhappy

As a result he resorted to drinking,

gambling and prostitutes

Mrs. Chan, your lungs are infected

You should rest and not move around

Try to keep an optimistic attitude on all things

I'll prescribe some medicine for you...

and you'll be up and about in a few days

Boil this medicine

down to about a bowl

Take half in the morning

and half at noon

Take the medicine twice again at night

After you've finished this dose...

consume another dose in a few days

If you're still coughing so badly

here are two pills

Take one with some warm water

You should hopefully feel better

I suggest you rest more

Thank you, doctor

I'll send the money to you later

Never mind, there's no rush

Chun Yu, please see the doctor out

It's okay

Please

Than ks

Thank you, Mr. Chan

No, my name is Yeung

Oh, I'm sorry

Damn

I'm sorry

Are you blind?

You smashed the bowl of red bean soup on purpose

No, I didn't mean to

You're so obliging when madam orders you around

yet you dislike working for me

You, you are asking for it

I'll beat you up

Please don't

I'll beat you up

You never gave me the respect I deserve

Ah Sim

Where are you hiding?

Chun Yu

Stop beating her

Do you want to kill her?

Ah Sim

Where are you hiding?

Ah Sim

Ah Sim

Hand me my medicine

What's with you again?

Please give me my medicine

Putting up a show again

Help me up

You're not crippled

Chun Yu

Get up yourself

Chun Yu

Madam, are you all right?

I'll help you up

Madam, I'm sorry

I can't serve you any more

What? You want to leave?

I can't take it anymore from the Master

His temper is bad, I know

I'll reason with him

Come, give me some water for my medicine

Don't leave me

I can't

It's not that I want to

It's just that he uses me as his punch-bag

How can I tolerate that?

I can't let him beat me to death

Sorry, I must go

What?

You dare to talk behind my back

Get lost

or I'll break your legs

Ah Sim...

Chun Yu, don't be like this

You've chased all the servants away

who will serve you?

Who will attend to me?

You, you'll do it

When I entered the Chan family

I was served by dozens of servants

I was supposed to enjoy that, too

Now there's only this bitch left

who dares to talk back at me

Our Chan family has treated you well

but times have changed

This is a time when we must help each other

Please try to understand

Understand?

What good are you to me?

I got married in your family to enjoy

However you're now finished

Remember, that's your problem not mine

Let me make it clear

If I wasn't concerned with gossips

I would have dumped you long ago

Needles and thread, cologne, facial cream

Ah Sim, where's madam?

I'll take a look

Madam, madam

I'm Ah Choy

I've brought the smokes

Madam

Master, where is madam?

I brought the smokes

Where is she?

You again?

Madam isn't feeling well, she's in there

Go inside yourself

False teeth

Madam

Lots of people are looking for this rare smokes

I brought some

and they're sold in no time

When do you expect to return to Hsia Mun?

It's been smooth business this time

so I'll leave tonight

Madam, you don't want this?

I'll introduce some new products to you

This powder is best for the face

It will rejuvenate your skin

This is quality powder

The madam next door says it is good

Ah Choy

Please take this letter to Hsia Mun for me

Sure

How much for them?

Ten dollars and fifty cents

Say ten even

Madam, this jade bracelet is beautiful

It was inherited from my mother

Here are ten dollars

These are for you

Thank you

This jade bracelet costs over a hundred

Careful

OK, I'm going

Grandpa, why can't I catch any fish?

How can you catch fish without patience?

Sir, pray tell me...

where is 13 Chung Kwai Sin Street?

Turn right at the alley in front

What do you want with Mrs. Chan?

Not many people look for her

Where do you come from?

I'm from Fua Shan, thank you

What are you doing?

I want to go into the water to see if there're fish

No, it is not as shallow as it appears

A little fellow was almost drowned here

Really?

Come let's fish

Coming

Who are you looking for?

I'm Leung Yi Wah, daughter of madam Fook...

who used to serve Mrs. Chan

Madam Fook?

Yes, I remember. Come in please

Inside please

Come in

Please sit

Thank you madam

How has Mrs. Fook been?

Been quite some time since she passed away

Mrs. Fook worked here for a long while
