After Parting, the World Falls Silent Plot:

Gu Zhao, the Northern General, and Shen Li, a doctor, were lovers who had agreed to marry on Mid-Autumn Festival, but he was forced to go to war when enemy troops invaded the border. Before leaving, Shen Li stuffed him a brocade bag embroidered with twin pears and cried, 'I’ll wait for you at Lixiang Courtyard, wait for you to come back and drink the pear honey soup I made.' However, when Gu Zhao returned victorious and pushed open the door of Lixiang Courtyard, he saw nothing but scorched earth—Shen Li had rushed into the fire to save children abducted by the enemy and never returned. Gu Zhao planted pear trees all over the ruins and waited for three years. Until Qingming Festival, a woman in a moon-white shirt stood under the pear trees, holding the jade hairpin he had given her, and whispered, 'Zhao, the pear honey soup is cold.'
