Ye Nai, who was spying from a distance with a telescope, had just sat through an entire biology observation class on spider mating, and regretted not bringing a camera. If she had captured this on film and put it online as natural observation or biology course material, she was sure it would have been a moneymaker.
From what she saw, she understood that the mother spider waited in her lair for the male spider to come bearing prey; if she was satisfied, they would mate.
It was said that during the breeding and mating period, mother spiders were in dire need of energy-rich food to lay healthy egg sacs. It was the time of year when their flesh was the tastiest and sold at the highest price.
To chance upon one was a lucky break, and she couldn't miss the opportunity to taste how delicious it was.
