Ching Kwok-yuen, a bird hunter, sees a female ghost harming people and shoots her to scare her away. The female ghost harbors a grudge and waits for a chance to retaliate, but soon the female ghost disguises herself as a woman who sacrifices her husband in front of a grave in order to seduce Kwok-yuen, who falls for the plan and marries the female ghost.
A woman conspired with her lover to kill her husband, chopped him into pieces and threw his body into the bottom of the White Goose Pond. Unexpectedly, her husband turned into a ghost to seek revenge on them.
In this deeply moving tale, a wealthy young man, Tak (Pak Wan), falls in love with his aunt’s servant, Ling (Pak Yin). However, their relationship is cut short by the stark difference in their social statuses. Unbeknownst to Tak, Ling becomes pregnant and is cruelly cast out of her employer’s household, facing the stigma of unmarried motherhood. Tragedy soon follows as her child suffers from an acute illness, forcing Ling into prostitution to survive. Her plight worsens when she is falsely accused of murdering a client who has, in fact, committed suicide. When Tak, now a lawyer, learns of her suffering, he returns to seek justice for her.
