Mnemonic
[li-] Link is [2] inside the [-(e)ng] English manor where he is trying to buy some 菱 water chestnuts from the 攵 foreman. He goes up to him and offers some 
mushrooms and some 艹 flowers. The 攵 foreman agrees and takes out a bucket of floating 菱 water chestnuts and gives it to him. Link accidentally spills it all over the velvet carpet, so the butlers come up and confiscate his 菱 water chestnuts.
