Gu Hengniang remained at the Wan Family, where Wan Da'an had taken a concubine. Life for Gu Hengniang in the Wan Family had been tough already, regardless of how foolish she might have been. After all, she was flesh and blood of Mrs. An.
Gu Jianghai and Gu Ya intended to go to the Wan Family to demand an explanation from Wan Ruyan. Mrs. An hurriedly interrupted, "Third son, fifth son, come back. You two brothers, come back to your mother." Under such circumstances, if Gu Ya and his brother went to the Wan Family to demand an explanation now, Gu Hengniang's situation would become even more difficult.
For the sake of Gu Hengniang, Mrs. An also decided to no longer pursue the matter with Wan Ruyan.
