This chapter opens with a conversation between the uncle of the long family and the grandson of the temple. The uncle asks the grandfather what he wishes for, and the grandfather replies that he wishes he had never left his grandson. He tells the uncle that the young master ordered him to make sure the two of them tried vegetarian food at the temple before they left the previous day. The auntie tells the grandfather that she has not seen him for a long time, and that he is looking prettier than ever. She tells him that he has not yet met his niece, who is the sister of the young man. The aunt tells the grandson that she often hears him talking about her, and she says that she admires him for bringing up such an outstanding person like him. She says that today is their lucky day, and they can have a meal together. The old man is not in his good health, and he is tired from hiking, so the auntie says she will not disturb him, but she does not want to disturb the old man who is just an arrogant b****. He says that he does not take the enemys side, but that he merely states the facts.
