Du Liniang dreams that she meets a young scholar and promises to marry him. When she wakes up, she yearns for her lover and falls ill. After a while she dies of lovesickness.

He meets Du Liniang’s soul in the Plum in Blossom Nunnery and agrees to help her return to life by reuniting her soul with her body. With b&w illustrations.
