Three women were wiggling and jiggling under the tree. They were just binding the opened paper fortunes on the wire. There were already many paper fortunes being bound and the wires were bowing downward. How many worshipers bought them when they came!

I thought many women liked fortune-telling not only in this country, but also in other countries. I wonder why they liked. Anyway, I hoped that something good was written on their paper fortunes.
