When I arrived, I gave her a purse from Zhengzhou, she looked in it and asked me to take it back.________Do English people like spiders?""Later we went shopping. Someone was painting a shop front, so there was a ladder(梯子).Grandmother stopped me from walking under it and said I must walk around it. I liked the shops and bought some lovely rose soap(肥皂) for my mother, a smart umbrella for my father and some new shoes for myself.________ Your grandmother came in and screamed(尖叫) !" "Then I broke a small mirror in the bathroom.________I felt very sorry. When I left I gave your grandmother some flowers. She counted and there were 13. She didn't like it.________"I explained to Lu, "My grandmother follows the old customs(习俗). You must not give someone an empty purse or they will have no money. You must not kill a money spider or the same will happen. Also it is very unlucky to walk under a ladder and to put new shoes on the table. An open umbrella in a house means someone will die.
