That day, Song Demei went to visit Pan Dehai. On the way, she checked out the local gang Yaojiazhai at Hai Chi Ridge, coincidentally arriving at Ma Songquan's stall just as he was having a rough time. Song Demei wanted a bowl of porridge before leaving, so she ended up at Ma Songquan's stall.
Virtue Cultivation eating porridge definitely had to reveal some virtue. Song Demei first said the rice didn't taste right, then claimed the water was off, and finally remarked the cooking was wrong; altogether, the porridge was unsatisfactory.
Ma Songquan had gained experience through the Jianghu, and he had quite a temper, so he argued a couple of lines with Song Demei.
The Young Village Chief from Yaojiazhai was present and ordered people to overturn the soup porridge stall, beating Ma Songquan half to death.
Ma Songquan, possessing cultivation level, could not swallow this humiliation and sought to fight with Yaojiazhai's men.
