Mnemonic

In the outhouse’s kitchen (ou2), the Queen of Hearts (qi) sees a diamond ring (永) and wants to have it immediately. Determined she rings the service bell (求) endlessly to request (求) the immediate handover, until the service request bell finally breaks down (because to me 求 looks like 永 broken in two places).
