[ch-] Charlie Brown is in [1] front of the [-(e)ng] English manor on the immaculate lawn, playing by himself because the rich kids want nothing to do with him. He takes a 小 small ⺈ dagger and cuts a 禾 grain stalk into pieces, and calls each piece a different 称 name so he finally has friends. The rich kids come running over and call him a bad 称 name and kick dirt over the grain stalk pieces he named then run away.
