The chapter opens with a conversation between xixi's mother and her daughter. The mother says that she's not worried about her daughter, but she is worried about the group of people who come to visit her. She says that some people don't like the company of such a big group, but they come anyway for a bite of the ginseng. She also says that her daughter's family is part of a great grandmother's clan, so they'll definitely come after they return from the trip. . She tells her daughter that she won't worry about jianghuiyin's hostility against her, because she'll teach him a lesson. She then tells xi that she wants to treat her and her brother-in-law to a meal. She asks if it's reasonable for them to eat with the guinea pig, since he's struggling. He tells her that he heard rumors that xiwei has killed his brother, and that's why he wants to fight with him. She reminds him that she was in charge of everything for him, so she will take care of him. He says that he even tried to fight against him, but he didn't have the guts to do it. He wonders if xi and yin will agree to the meal. He asks if they will all agree to join him and his brother for dinner tomorrow. They will. He then asks why he is sweating so much, and she tells him that he'll have to stay with his brother if he can't get well with xi
