The Story Behind the Lot
Cai Qing repays a kindness
“Cai Qing Repays a Kindness” is a story about remembering a favor and returning it with virtue. When Cai Qing fell on hard times in his youth, someone helped him and showed him kindness. Later his fortunes changed: his business prospered and his household became wealthy. He never forgot the person who had helped him, and repaid the kindness generously, treating his benefactor with great care. Thus came a celebrated tale of gratitude returned. The ancients valued trust and righteousness, and believed that heaven would favor those who remembered kindness and repaid it. Cai Qing’s success in business and abundant income are presented as proof that good intentions bear good fruit. In this lot, the story means that if you remain grateful and treat others sincerely, business and efforts to earn money will bring great gain. Your connections will thrive and benefactors will help you; wealth will endure without later trouble. It is an excellent sign of prosperity, good fortune, and peace.
