Gu Yingxia climbed a tree to pick persimmons. Concubine Xian advised her many times, but she didn't listen.
Gu Yinwei didn't want to spoil her fun. She was in high spirits at the moment and wouldn't listen to anyone else's advice.
The orange-red persimmons were hanging on the treetops like lanterns, and birds were squatting on the treetops eating persimmons. Gu Yingxia picked up a stone to drive the birds away, but the stone she threw did not hit the bird, but bounced back and hit her head.
Gu Yingxia calmed down a lot because of this. Miss Xing peeled the persimmons and strung them together with hemp rope.
Gu Yingxia came close to Miss Xing and watched her movements intently.
"The persimmons are still raw. Why are you hanging them up after peeling them?"
“Make dried persimmon cakes.”
"I'll help too." Gu Yingxia said and started to roll up her sleeves.
Miss Xing blurted out, "Don't."
The more the virtuous Concubine Dowager tried to help, the more trouble she caused.
"I'm a warm-hearted person who likes to help others."
Gu Yinxia picked up a persimmon and began to peel it. With a snap, the persimmon fell to the ground and rolled into the mud.
He took another one and just after peeling it for the first time, he found a worm inside the persimmon, and it squeaked in fear.
"I don't eat persimmons anymore. I will never eat persimmons again."

Miss Xing gave Gu Yingxia a box of persimmon cakes and asked her how they tasted. She replied, "They tasted delicious."
"Miss Xing, do you have any more persimmon cakes left? Give me another box."
Miss Xing smiled and said, "There's more, there's more. I'll go get it."
Concubine Xian laughed so hard that she couldn't stop: "Didn't you say you would never eat persimmons again?"
"What does it have to do with you? The persimmons I eat are not grown by you."
"You're being unreasonable."
"As long as I am unreasonable, no one can reason with me."
Gu Yingxia not only ate up all her own persimmon cakes, but also ate up Gu Yinwei's and Concubine Xian's portions.
