BEWARE THE TIGER

Tomorrow, Yen-Wen’s xiao didi (little younger brother, as opposed to da didi, older younger brother) is getting married, so there is a flurry of activity here. But Yen-Wen is not involved with the preparation in any way, because she was born in the year of the tiger, and tigers are bad luck for weddings. So, if the bride comes into the room, Yen-Wen immediately has to leave. She is allowed to actually attend the wedding, she just can’t have anything to do with the lead-up to it.
