Xiangling blossoms under Lin Daiyu. Daiyu's sharp criticism drives Xiangling to revise until she produces a praised poem. The household then receives visiting kin and Xue Baoqin arrives, instantly favored by Grandmother Jia and Lady Wang. Xue Baochai worries quietly about marriage arrangements and the closeness of Baoyu and Daiyu. Shi Xiangyun is taken in as a guest. On a snowy night the group meets at Lu Xue An to roast venison and compose linked five character verses. Li Wan sets the topic. Because Baoyu's lines are weakest he is punished by being sent to fetch a plum branch from Longcui Nunnery. He braves the snow and meets Miaoyu. Her austere manner tests him, but his refined improvisations win her sympathy. She cuts a gnarled, fragrant red plum branch and gives it to him. Back at Lu Xue An the branch is placed in a fitted vase and the young women compose poems on it. Grandmother Jia delights in the scene and orders Xichun to paint it. She also has Yuanyang present a rare quejin robe to Baoyu. Later Xue Ayi tries to encourage a match between Baoyu and Baoqin. After Xi Ren leaves to mourn, night duties are rearranged. Qingwen and Sheyue attend Baoyu. Sheyue catches a chill and develops a high fever. The household secretly summons Doctor Hu who prescribes strong dispersing herbs. Qingwen objects and they then fetch Doctor Wang who favors gentler, tonic remedies. The conflicting treatments and whispered anxieties unsettle everyone. Baoyu eavesdrops at a window and feels mounting unease as the earlier poetic gaiety gives way to domestic turbulence.
