Early in the Fourth Month, the Minister of the Interior (To-no-Chujo) arranged a banquet of wisteria, which was full in bloom. He invited Yugiri. The Minister had begun to grow restless when finally Yugiri arrived. When the moon came out, the wine was served. Pretending to be very drunk, the Minister admired Yugiri who had waited long and well to obtain permission to marry his daughter, Kumoinokari. The long-standing ill feeling between them disappeared. Kashiwagi broke off an unusually long and rich spray of wisteria and presented it to Yugiri with a cup of wine. That was a romantic happy ending for Yugiri and Kumoinokari who had been separated for six years.

Yugiri was promoted to middle counselor. He moved into his grandmother's Sanjo house, which was filled with many good memories. One beautiful evening sitting near the veranda, Yugiri and Kumoinokari exchanged poems recalling the grandmother who had always protected them. Having heard that the garden was in its autumn glory, To-no-Chujo stopped by on his way from court. As the house was where he had lived in his young days, the Minister of the Interior was moved finding that the couple now lived there happily.
