Three Grandmothers took out five bells from a bag and handed one to each of us. "You all must sleep with the bells tonight and cannot take them off."
"Wang Laowu died unjustly, and it's been seven years. No one has burned paper money for him; anyone would feel resentful."
"If you don't tell the truth, by the seventh night, no one will be able to save you."
Aunt said anxiously, "Auntie, I really don't know where Wang Laowu is! I only heard Wang Zhiming's Daughter-in-law say that Wang Laowu wrote her a letter."
Three Grandmothers asked, "Why did Wang Laowu argue with his Daughter-in-law?"
My mother thought for a moment and said, "It was raining that day; he wanted to catch Field Snails, but I stopped him because when I was cooking that morning, I noticed the fire was strong, yet not a single grain of rice had moved."
"Just like now, there’s not a sound at all; it’s very eerie."
After my mother finished speaking, her previously normal expression suddenly turned strange.
She suddenly pushed Aunt forcefully. "Let’s go! Hurry up!"
Aunt stumbled and nearly fell.
My little aunt was startled. "Sister-in-law, what’s wrong with you?"
But my mother ignored her and continued to push my little aunt and Aunt forward.
"Go! Go!"
Yet no matter how hard she pushed, neither of them moved an inch.
So she grabbed me and threw me into the Pond.
"Han Wa, go down quickly and keep your father company."
I was terrified.
Fortunately, my cousin was quick-witted and pulled me out of the water.
Early the next morning, Aunt asked my little aunt to get up early to cook porridge.
Everyone was going to the Pond today to arrange for the retrieval of the bodies, so we needed to eat well beforehand.
However, my little aunt had been in the kitchen for a long time without coming out.
Aunt had no choice but to limp into the kitchen.
She found my little aunt standing pale in front of the stove.
The grains of rice in the pot were standing still, unmoving.
Just like the bodies standing in the Pond.
Aunt sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly asked my cousin to call Three Grandmothers.
“Han Wa, go call Three Grandmothers,” Aunt said, pushing me slightly.
I shook my head. “I don’t want to go. Three Grandmothers is so fierce; I don’t want to.”
Aunt replied, “If you don’t go, who will? Should I go? My leg is broken; how can I go?”
I lowered my head and remained silent.
Aunt continued, “You go call Three Grandmothers, and I’ll give you that comic book from my room.”
She then pulled out five yuan from her pocket. “Here’s five yuan for you; you can buy some snacks.”
I shook my head again. “I don’t want it.”
Aunt gently patted my head and said, "Han Wa, don't be afraid. What Second Sister-in-law just said was all nonsense; you shouldn't take it seriously."
At that moment, my younger aunt suddenly brought over a bowl of porridge and offered it to Second Sister-in-law. "Sister-in-law, try this and see if the porridge is cooked."
As soon as Second Sister-in-law heard this, her expression changed immediately.
She looked at the bowl in my younger aunt's hands and trembled as she reached out to take it.
"Sister-in-law, hurry up and eat," my younger aunt urged.
"What am I supposed to eat?" Second Sister-in-law asked, staring at the half-cooked porridge, feeling a bit at a loss.
"Eat the porridge!" My younger aunt said with an innocent look on her face.
Second Sister-in-law sighed, "Alas! It seems I've truly gone mad; how could you start talking nonsense too?"
My younger aunt glanced at her and asked, "Sister-in-law, are you feeling unwell? Why don't you have some porridge first?"
As she spoke, she moved the bowl closer again.
Second Sister-in-law sighed helplessly, "Alas! It seems I really am losing my mind; how could even you..."
