The chapter opens with a discussion between the two brothers about whether or not they should be friends with each other. The brothers decide that they should go out to make more friends. They decide to go to every stall in town and play one round of the game at each stall until they are satisfied with the game. They also decide to leave empty handed prizes at the end of each round and to win the prizes by hitting a certain number of balls. If they fail to hit the balls within ten shots, they must pay for the prizes in full. The captain tells the brothers that the boss is planning to give out envelopes with red envelopes to everyone, and they should stay alert. He also tells them that the captain's wife, Quingqing, will be joining the group, and the brothers decide to let her play with them. They do not want her to join the group because she is not handsome enough to play the game, but because she does not have the skills to play it.
