Xue Xiaoshu served as an advisor in Jiangxi. When military affairs arose, he brought his family to Fujian. In a small town, his concubine died suddenly of an illness. As there were no coffin shops in the mountains, he had to request a coffin from a village elder. This coffin was painted with lacquer and gold, and was quite luxurious and exquisite. After the burial, he realized that the old man's prophecy about obtaining a fine coffin had come to pass.
