Yueyao lowered her head and said after a long while, "Alright, I'll listen to you."
An Zhichen knew Yueyao was upset and held her in his arms: "I won't pursue the past anymore, if Tingzheng listens to you and divorces Madam Lin this time, you can find him a capable and virtuous wife. If he doesn't listen to you and refuses to leave Madam Lin, then keep your distance. Even from a distance, you can find peace! Yueyao, you've done everything you should as a sister, and even things you shouldn't have. Even after a hundred years, when you're beneath the earth, father-in-law and mother-in-law won't blame you." Since Tingzheng wouldn't give up Madam Lin, An Zhichen decided all future matters should be handled by Tingzheng himself. He wouldn't allow Yueyao to clean up after Tingzheng anymore, nor would he permit Madam Lin to act arrogantly in his home.
