年五十，始娶魯山孫氏，亦有賢行，夫婦相敬如賓，負薪拾穗，行歌自得，不知其貧也。 At fifty he married a woman of the Sun clan of Lushan, who was likewise virtuous; husband and wife treated each other with the respect due guests, carried firewood and gleaned grain, walked singing contentedly, and seemed unaware of their poverty.

天興間，潛挈家避兵少室，乃不食七日死，孫氏亦投絕澗死焉。 During Tianxing, Qian took his family to Shaoshi to escape the troops; he fasted seven days and died, and Lady Sun also threw herself into a deep ravine and died.
