“These insects are very fat. They are as fat as our thumbs. They will squirm at the people’s prickly hairs. When they cry, they might burrow into your mouth. I heard that some poor countries would catch these insects and eat them. They are nutritious, so it should be better to eat them raw. Maybe they look good enough to eat too.” Big Ke laughed evilly. He looked like a hooligan.
“What if it burrows into your nose and ears?” Ah Lu asked as he took out a fat green insect from his pocket. Even Jiang Yao, who was watching from afar, felt disgusted, let alone the two girls watching the insect from a close distance. One of them was so scared that she fainted.

“Who is it? How did he contact you? What’s his name?” Ah Lu saw that the girl had fainted, so he moved the insect in front of the other girl and shook it.
Men were afraid of knives, and girls were scared of creepy crawlies. The girl would be too scared to hide anything from them.
Jiang Yao looked at Ah Lu. After she received the answer, she picked up her phone and called a person named Xiao Fan. Then, she stopped paying attention to Big Ke and Ah Lu. It was only a small matter; they could settle that easily.
After that, Jiang Yao took a nap. Since there was nothing to worry about, Jiang Yao slept deeply until Mrs. Lu came upstairs to call her for dinner.
After dinner, Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, Old Madam Liang, and Xiao Ya played mahjong.
Even though Old Madam Liang was the oldest, her mahjong skills were not inferior to Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu.
Xiao Ya could not sit still after losing a few rounds in a row. She turned around and called out to Jiang Yao, who was sitting in front of the television. “Yaoyao, do you want to play? I’ll give you my seat.”

Mrs. Lu smiled. “I heard that Yaoyao only learned to play poker when she was in high school. Later, her second brother was afraid that she would be stressed from studying, so he taught her how to play mahjong on weekends to relieve her stress.”
“Wow, that is…”
Xiao Ya curled her lips and did not know what to say. However, Old Mrs. Liang said, “You should see her as your role model. If you were even a bit like her, your parents would be so happy that they would not be able to sleep at night.”
“That won’t do. People won’t feel well if they don’t sleep. I’d better stay like this so that my parents can have a good sleep.” Xiao Ya’s reaction was swift. As soon as Old Madam Liang finished speaking, she spoke like a dutiful daughter.
Jiang Yao listened to Xiao Ya’s gag as the elderly laughed loudly. Then, she went to the kitchen to prepare some medicine for Mrs. Lu’s feet. Xiao Ya’s voice was so loud that it sounded as if a loudspeaker amplified it. When she entered the kitchen, Jiang Yao could hear Xiao Ya acting coquettishly that the elders would give in to her.
Jiang Yao did not know how to play mahjong, but she had learned some skills. A few of her friends would also play mahjong in the dormitory when they had nothing to do.. She had a good memory, so she could win if she relied on technicalities.
