Lu Jiajie returned to the Forty-nine City, and Ma Lili was willing to divorce, but she wanted him to swear that it wasn't because he had a "Fox Spirit" on the outside that they were getting a divorce.
Although annoyed, Lu Jiajie still made the poisonous oath, "If I divorce because of a woman on the outside, let me die in poverty and without anyone to attend to me after death."
Ma Lili then said, "You also have to swear that even if you marry again, you cannot have children, or else I will not let you off."
Feeling that she was being excessive, Lu Jiajie said in frustration, "If you truly cared for the children, we wouldn't have ended up here. Are you going to the Civil Affairs Bureau or not? If you don't, let's forget about it. I can afford to wait, but you can't. Wait till you're forty and no longer in your prime, and see who will want you then."
