In this chapter, we learn that daodao wants to live with his third aunt, who is also his aunt's sister. The third aunt wants to adopt him, but her husband has recently lost his job, and the family can't afford to raise more children, so they're sending him to an orphanage instead. The aunt tells the family to stop fighting, and to send her to the orphanage so she can take care of him. She says that the orphanage will be able to help her meet new friends, and that she'll pick him up every year so they can come back to celebrate with her family. She tells the aunt to pack her clothes so that they can leave on the plane as soon as she gets there, because her clothes are "out of style anyway" . She also says that her brother would never have expected his relatives to treat him this way, since he's still alive. This is the funniest joke she's ever heard, and it's a good one. After that, she says, she adopted him, and now she is very happy.
