The Enchanted Red Brick House: A Tale of Friendship and Discovery

Fairy Tales Audiobook

Ah Ming, a lonely little boy, often wandered around his neighborhood alone. One day, he came across a centuries-old red brick house that had been abandoned for years. Intrigued, he entered the crumbling two-story building, pushing open the creaky doors to reveal a dusty living room covered in white sheets.

To the right of the living room, Ah Ming discovered a traditional wood-fired kitchen, complete with a broken water tank and rice container. Beyond the kitchen lay a courtyard, overrun with wild plants and weeds. Retracing his steps, Ah Ming ventured into the left-hand room, where he found numerous small jars, some broken and some intact, scattered amidst yellow charm papers.

Ah Ming cautiously climbed the worn wooden staircase to the second floor, which creaked under his weight. Upstairs, he found two rooms on each side of the hallway. In the first room to the left, he discovered a wooden baby crib, a round table, and a dressing table. The second room housed an old red cotton bed covered in black rice, with a round table and a dressing table beside the window.

Ah Ming then entered the first room on the right, which contained a squat toilet and an old-fashioned sink, the mirror covered in grime. Frightened, Ah Ming quickly left the bathroom and continued to the last room, where he found a large wooden bathtub filled with countless spiders.

Panicked, Ah Ming ran back towards the staircase, but the decaying wood suddenly cracked, and he fell through the broken steps. When he regained consciousness, he found himself face-to-face with a little girl with big, sparkling eyes. Together, they bravely explored the ancient mansion, uncovering a variety of hidden treasures and mysteries.

As they ventured deeper into the house, they discovered a hidden room behind a dusty bookshelf. The room was filled with old letters, photographs, and diaries that revealed the house's rich history and the stories of the family that had once lived there. As Ah Ming and the little girl read the diaries, they learned about the love, laughter, and heartache that had filled the house over the years.

Feeling inspired, Ah Ming and the little girl decided to clean and restore the red brick house. They spent days scrubbing, painting, and fixing the broken furniture. With the help of their friends and neighbors, they transformed the once-forgotten house into a warm and welcoming home.

Once the house was restored, Ah Ming and the little girl invited their families to come and live in the red brick house. The families happily agreed, and the house was soon filled with the sounds of laughter and joy.

In the end, Ah Ming and the little girl not only uncovered the secrets of the enchanted red brick house, but they also found the true meaning of friendship and family. They had brought life and love back to the house, creating new memories that would last a lifetime.
