00:00Before his death, the grandfather handed his granddaughter three silk pouches.
00:03He said they could help their family of three avoid danger and turn misfortune into fortune three times.
00:08The first pouch was to be handed to a stranger wearing a raincoat during his funeral,
00:11on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month.
00:13By doing so, it would save the life of the girl's father.
00:16Sure enough, on that very day, her grandfather passed away at 7.07.07 p.m.
00:20That evening, during the funeral, a stranger in a raincoat appeared.
00:23He entered the morning hall and bowed three times before the grandfather's altar.
00:26Then he pulled out a dagger from his coat, aiming straight at the girl's father.
00:29The girl quickly handed him the first pouch her grandfather had left.
00:32After reading it, the man immediately fled in panic.
00:35He ran away shouting that the whole family was crazy.
00:37The girl's mother explained that the man in the raincoat was her father's business rival.
00:40He held a grudge and had come to kill her father.
00:42Thankfully, the grandfather had foreseen it.
00:45Otherwise, her father really would have died.
00:47The second pouch was to be given to her mother three years later on tomb sweeping day.
00:50They were to open it while paying respects at his grave.
00:52When her mother opened at the gravesite, she saw a note saying,
00:55Don't set off firecrackers. Leave immediately.
00:57Remembering how effective the first pouch had been her mother quickly told everyone to run away.
01:02Sure enough, not long after there was an explosion at the grave,
01:04thankfully the grandfather had warned them in advance.
01:07Otherwise, they all would have died in blast.
01:09The third pouch came with a solemn instruction from the grandfather.
01:12It was to be opened by the girl's mother ten years later when the girl became pregnant.
01:16One day, the girl announced her pregnancy during a family gathering.
01:19Everyone was overjoyed by the news.
01:20She and her husband had been trying to have a baby for ten years.
01:23Now they finally had their miracle.
01:24Her mother immediately opened the third pouch.
01:27After reading the contents, she told her daughter to get an abortion.
01:30The girl anxiously asked her why, but her mother urgently pulled her,
01:33insisting to go to the hospital right away.
01:35The grandmother couldn't bear it and quickly stepped in.
01:37After all, the in-laws had come a long way to celebrate.
01:40It wasn't the right time or place for such a scene,
01:42seeing that no one supported the abortion.
01:44The mother pulled out the third pouch and said it was the grandfather's instruction.
01:47The grandmother and others were skeptical.
01:49They said not even a god could predict something ten years in advance.
01:51The girl's mother had no choice but to show them what was inside the pouch.
01:55As soon as everyone read it, their expressions changed completely.
01:58Everyone started insisting the girl go to the hospital and terminate the pregnancy.
02:02Seeing this, the girl panicked.
02:03She knelt down and pleaded with the mother.
02:05She said it hadn't been easy trying to have a child for ten years.
02:07She begged her mother to let her keep the baby, but her words had no effect.
02:11Her father-in-law even tried to drag her to the hospital.
02:13Just then, her husband and father arrived.
02:16After understanding the situation, they stood firmly by her side.
02:18They said no matter what, they wouldn't agree to the abortion.
02:21Her mother quickly took out the pouch again to show them.
02:23The girl hurried to stop her.
02:25She was afraid her husband would change his mind after reading it.
02:28Her husband swore firmly that even after reading the pouch,
02:30he would not ask her to abort the baby.
02:32Still worried, the girl made him sign a written promise.
02:35He agreed that no matter what the pouch said,
02:37he wouldn't force her to terminate the pregnancy.
02:38But once he read it, he immediately snatched the promise and tore it to pieces.
02:42Then he slapped the girl and told her to go to the hospital at once.
02:45The girl turned to her father for help.
02:46Although he was heartbroken, he had no way to help.
02:49He avoided her pleading eyes.
02:50At that moment, the girl realized something.
02:53Only if she herself knew what was written in the pouch,
02:55could she hope to protect her child.
02:56So she pretended to agree to go to the hospital with her husband.
