In this short scene, we are introduced to Mr. Si, his wife, and their young son, who are visiting a friend in the city. The two men are surprised to see each other, as they had run into each other in the street. Si asks why they are there, and the young man tells him that he is there to find a business partner. Si says that they are planning to open a domestic market in the country, and that he has been looking for a small and middle-sized company to take over. Si thanks him for his kindness, and he says that he would have been living on the streets if it had not been for him. He tells Si that he wants to fight with him, but that he still wants to repay his kindness with dinner. Si suggests that they hang out another day, but Si says he must warn Xingyao that he must not create any random incidents in front of the young woman.
