Li handed Lu Qiqi a good luck charm, saying, "I specially went to the temple to get this for you when you went to the border town."
Your third uncle kept your departure to the border town a secret from the whole family, unaware that he had a habit of talking in his sleep at night.
After his second trip to Heshun Prefecture, he revealed it that very night, and to this day he still doesn't realize he let it slip.
