January 14th was the anniversary of Jiang Yi's great-grandfather's death.
Elder Chief led the entire family to sweep the tombs of the deceased relatives.
In the countryside, there was no formal cemetery or professional management; a desolate hillside stood crowded with tombstones, burying the ancestors of the nearby villages.
Locally, the Jiang Family Residence was a major household, and all the deceased relatives were buried on the same slope—over ten tombstones, large and small, grouped together.
According to local customs, after a solemn ancestral rite, the family members would leave the offered fruits and roast chickens behind.
But before the Jiang family members had walked far, the second auntie suddenly popped up from nowhere.
She first bowed to each tombstone and then, after mumbling something, pillaged all the fruits and roast chickens from the offerings.
