22. Four-Eyes' mother gives him the task of creating poems full of 'romantic realism', which he fails miserably at and is about to give up on when he is told of the miller who knows all the authentic songs of the region.

24. Luo and the narrator accept the miller's favorite dish: 'jade dumplings with miller sauce'.
25. Four-Eyes is finding songs with love and emotion in them. Where is the Love? might be considered a modern song with romantic realism. The miller gives them songs with riddles in them and are about very secular objects but are not that romantic.
26. They are definitely aware of the consequences, but they choose not to care about them. In the book, they recorded the songs of the miller but did not once mention that its content was forbidden, and when they asked for Four-Eyes' books they did not think much about what would happen to them if they were discovered with them, but rather, just about getting them and discovering what was between the covers. They might be considered lucky, that they were not caught stealing the books, giving Four-Eyes those songs, and that the headman, who discovers their secret needed their help fixing his teeth.
27. He was defending their hard work and the credit given to them, but he was not justified because he did not succeed in ripping up the pieces of paper. He did, however, have the satisfaction of injuring Four-Eyes.
