The next morning, Gu tells his son that he has to go back to school. He tells him to be careful on his way home because his mother is stingy with her money. Gu also tells him that he will be the future wife of the young general, and that he should be careful with his clothing. Gu is pleased that his son has decided to go to school, as he had been thinking about going after the end of the year to make some more connections. He says that his sister is about to graduate from high school, and he will have her make up any missed classes for her. He also tells her that if she is to marry the general, she will have to attend school.
