'my' past

When I was a child, my father wasn't that annoying, because even though he was tired from work, he still took time out to take care of my homework.

Because of my father's lack of progress, my mother gradually became disappointed in him, so much so that later, my mother even began to say a word to my father, and I was very sad about it.

I knew that my father loved my mother, so when my father said that I wanted to tell the outside world about that vague idea, I did not refuse, but discussed the matter with my father in detail.

I really can't believe how much reality that dream exists, but my father is thinking about it, and I can't hurt his confidence, maybe the pressure from my mother is too much for my father to bear! After all, the father always loved the mother.

I prayed that everything would go well and that I would have a comfortable life, but things were not as good as I prayed for, and my father was frustrated, and even the reporters at the tabloid newspaper felt that his story was not newsworthy, which meant that there was no hope for what was on my father's mind.

During that time, I was often reprimanded by my father because I was worried about my family's affairs and my academic performance deteriorated, but I didn't blame him, and I didn't hate my mother for having less and less time to come home.

I think a family needs to be worked by everyone, but only if our efforts are fruitful. Therefore, the father's unreasonable delusions could not make the mother change her mind.

However, my father did not give up under my mother's disappointment and my helplessness, he still waited for me to get out of school every day, accompanied me to do my homework, and then immersed myself in the dream of becoming less and less confident in my words, and carefully recorded every sentence.

Finally, one day, a man called and asked my father to go out with him, which was the first time I left my father, and the second year after my mother left us.

My father had done a lot of work to prepare for this, and even brought all his thick notes with him, and if I hadn't had to go to school, he would have taken me with him.

He used the little money left in the bank to hire an aunt to take care of my food and daily life, and then left, and when he left, my father said that maybe when he came back this time, he would bring me a surprise.

As for the surprise my father said, I naturally expected my mother to return, but I later learned that my father's expectations were completely different from mine, and he only hoped that he could become famous, and because of this, I would slowly lose that ability after entering the Spiegel House (the predecessor of the Strange House).

The wait was always long, and while I was expecting my father's surprise, I managed to contact my mother and inform her that my father had finally been appreciated. However, my mother never wanted to talk to me about my father, so I had to give up.

The turning point in our family really came after the return of my father, who came back with a proud face and only told me one thing, that is, he succeeded, and we can have no worries about food and clothing in the future. I reluctantly expressed joy at this, but for the first time, my father avoided what I cared about.

Even so, I still believed that my father loved my mother.

At that time, there were still two or three years left before we entered the Spiegel House, and my father was already secretly entrusting others to build the Spiegel House with the money he earned, but I didn't know it yet.

'I'm now

The only thing I could do in the house was loneliness, and of course, I was happy when Eternal was at home, although the cook didn't approve of us leaving work and staying together, and she seemed to see every day as something that had to be done in life. Naturally, we young people do not fully understand.

She did the same for Eternal, she never missed much, she just bothered to take care of her. Feelings are a thing in the treacherous house, and I only feel a little more from Mr. Butler.

Indeed, Mr. Housekeeper is a little more emotional than the rest of the house, as can be seen from his attitude towards the proprietress of the restaurant outside. The proprietress of the restaurant would often call the housekeeper who was out to talk, and the housekeeper was always very patient in this regard.

Therefore, I am willing to tell Mr. Butler about anything, and once, I heard Mr. Butler mention Shu Xue, a name that is very unfamiliar to me. It's not that I don't know I've been working as a stand-in for someone, I just don't know what that person's name is and if they're still alive.

Mr. Butler said that this person was Shu Xue, but I was still very confused about it, and later, I told Eternal about it, and he didn't say anything about it, but after that, I found that Mr. Butler began to avoid my questions about Shu Xue.

Perhaps, no one in this family likes Shu Xue? I didn't understand, so I told the proprietress of the restaurant about it, because every day when I left the house to work in the restaurant, no one would control my words and deeds, and I could say what I liked without any scruples, although I still didn't say much, but compared to being in the house, it was a lot.

When the proprietress heard me say Shu Xue's name, for a moment, I felt as if she couldn't control her tears, but then there were customers in the restaurant, so I wasn't sure if what I felt at that time was the truth.

That night, the proprietress took the time to accompany me for a long time, and she did not mention Shu Xue again, but kept talking about the past of the hostess of the treacherous house, that is, the mirror house, why was she so familiar with the hostess? I looked into the eyes of the proprietress and always felt that there were too many stories hidden in them, but when these stories happened, I was not yet born, how could I know if they were true or false?

It was late that day when I went back, and the hostess complained, but I was not afraid, because the housekeeper said that the hostess seemed to wake up very late today, and did not even play the piano, which must be played every day.

Speaking of the piano, I will also, it was taught by the chef's mother-in-law, don't look at the cook's mother-in-law cooking every day, in fact, she knows a lot of things, especially like reading and piano, and I think the skills of playing the piano are comparable to the hostess.

The Moonlight Song was the only piece played in the house, and everyone seemed to like it, and I gradually only remembered this one, of course I didn't know any sheet music, and when the cook taught me, I used a simple score, and she drew it herself, but it was very neat.

Call...... Maybe I really shouldn't have delved into so many secrets of the Spooky House's past, whether it's the Spooky House or the Spiegel House! All I ask is to live carefree with Eternal forever.

In the past and present chapters of 'I', the characters referred to by 'I' are not limited to the same person, but are just descriptions of what happened in the past and present.

In fact, for the fifteen years of the existence of the Treacherous House, only the dead have actually left it, and under the shadow of Anze, some people have been hidden or replaced, and these things may reveal a little clue in Yun Yeyao's investigation, or they may be buried with the dead.
