After finishing these tasks, Three Grandmothers said, "Alright, we can bury Uncle's body next to Grandma tonight."
Aunt looked unwilling and replied, "Auntie, my Old Man is now buried beside Mom. Will this affect his future fortune?"
Three Grandmothers sneered, "Whether he can live or not is another matter!"
Second Uncle asked, "Auntie, can you tell who is behind this mischief?"
Three Grandmothers glanced at Second Uncle and said, "The old lady has a Field Snail shell under her feet."
The younger aunt said, "Only Big Brother and Han Wa have seen the person who borrowed rice."
Han Wa added, "I didn't see his face clearly."
Although Aunt was not entirely satisfied with Three Grandmothers' arrangements, she still prepared the items as requested.
Because Grandma died unexpectedly and Uncle met a tragic end at Rice Jar, Second Uncle spent a considerable amount of money to find someone to carry the coffin.
However, at the hour calculated by Three Grandmothers, twelve strong men could not lift the coffin.
Three Grandmothers stepped forward to check the situation and discovered that the coffin was leaking water and emitting a foul fishy smell.
Her expression changed dramatically as she turned and ran towards the village entrance.
The others followed behind and found that Three Grandmothers had stopped by the Pond.
To their shock, Uncle's body was standing right in the center of the Pond.
Three Grandmothers' face turned pale: "This is bad; it has become a calamity."
Second Uncle was furious, shouting, "I'll kill you!"
As he spoke, he picked up a hatchet and moved toward Grandmother.
However, as he got closer to her, his movements slowed down, and eventually, he plunged headfirst into the water and drowned.
Little Aunt screamed in fright, but no one dared to step forward to help.
During this ordeal, Second Uncle did not struggle; the only sound by the pond was Little Aunt's sobbing, with no one else speaking.
Three Grandmothers looked serious. "Let's all go home for now. It's manageable during the day, but it won't be good at night. You have two days left."
Suddenly, Aunt said, "I think I saw Second Uncle's head standing up!"
Little Aunt chimed in, "Yes, I saw it too! It looked like it was standing up!"
Hearing this made us all feel a chill run down our spines.
Cousin pulled out a flashlight from his pocket and shone it over the water.
We could see Second Uncle's body standing headfirst next to Grandmother.
Little Aunt trembled with fear. "Could it be my turn now? Wuwuwu—"
Three Grandmothers suddenly asked, "What about Wang Zhiming? Is he dead?"
Little Aunt replied, "Yes."
Three Grandmothers continued, "Last time I asked Uncle, he said Wang Laowu and Daughter-in-law had a fight and left home seven years ago."
Mother suddenly became agitated. "Impossible! My brother can't be dead! He wrote me a letter just last month!"
The sister-in-law said, "Sister, wake up! My brother has been dead for ten years."
"How can you curse my brother like that? He even gave you money! How can you be so ungrateful?"
Mother grew more and more agitated, and in the end, she pushed the sister-in-law to the ground.
My mother and the sister-in-law's family had been working outside since childhood, so they weren't very clear about the matters at home.
However, Mother had always lived in the village, so she knew a bit about the character of the Three Grandmothers.
"Three Grandmothers, can you find a way to save my brother? He was such a good person; he can't just die unjustly like this!"
Mother knelt before the Three Grandmothers, weeping bitterly.
The sister-in-law also lay on the ground, crying pitifully, "Three Grandmothers, please save me! I don't want to die!"
"What do you all want? Why won't you speak the truth?"
Cousin was sweating profusely with anxiety.
The sister-in-law was tightly grasped by Aunt's arm, her face filled with fear, unwilling to say a word.
