‘We often play a game like this ourselves back home when we get together of an evening,’ said Grannie Liu,
‘only the way we do it,it doesn’t sound so pretty as this.Howsomever.I don’t mind having a try.’
‘It’s easy,really,’ said the others.‘Don’t worry about what it sounds like.Just say what comes naturally.’
Faithful began to lay.
‘A pair of fours on the left,the Man.’
Grannie Liu was a good long while puzzling over this.Finally she said.
‘Is it a farmer?’
The others roared with laughter.
‘That’s all right,’ said Grandmother Jia reassuringly.‘That answer will do very well.’
‘You young people shouldn’t laugh at me,’ said Grannie Liu to the others.‘I’m a countrywoman born and I
can’t help my country talk.’
‘Green three,red four,contrasting colours,’ called Faithful.
‘The fire burns up the caterpillars,’ said Grannie Liu.
‘Why,so it might,’ said the others.‘Stick to your “country talk”,Grannie,you’re doing fine!’
‘Red four on the right and the ace is red,’ said Faithful.
‘A turnip and a garlic-head.’
More laughter.
‘ “That Flower” those three together show,’ said Faithful.
‘This flower will to a pumpkin grow,’ said the flower-bedecked ancient,gesturing with her hands to
demonstrate the size of the imagined pumpkin.
The following chapter will show how the party progressed.
