The Haunting Maid

An's sister was destroyed by the Chen family, and An intends to collect for it. She starts a rumor that the Chen mansion is haunted, stages enough incidents to make the household believe it, and when the family sends for a feng shui master she arrives at the gate as his assistant. Inside, she finds someone with his own grievance. Yuan Youzhen is the Chens' brother-in-law and the family property he considers his was taken from him; he works out quickly what she really is and proposes they use each other. They agree, each expecting to be the one who profits. An's method is more direct than he anticipated, and she goes after Chen Zhengbang himself, letting the man believe she wants him. Yuan takes the high moral line about it, lectures her, and sets about correcting her and bringing her round to his side. He is the one who ends up caught, and it happens while the haunting they arranged is still running and the household is still afraid of its own corridors.
