Frogs catch pests, so they’re a farm crop’s good friend. But my dad goes out during the day and catches frogs.
I said to dad: “Frogs are experts at annihilating pests, you can’t catch them!” But my dad only smiled and said: “Children should stay out of adult business.” I’m very worried.

Once again, dad caught several frogs and boiled up a pot of frog meat. Everyone in the family ate up the savory [food], but I didn’t even want to eat a little. I thought: here we are eating frog meat, that means there are many small frogs with no mama, surely they’re crying for their mother, it’s such a pity! My dad is a big scoundrel!
