At the scholar's home, he endured the bullying from the scholar's wife while missing his son Chunbao. When Chun Baoniang gave birth to an heir, Qiubao, for the scholar, she was expelled by the scholar's eldest wife. I can see Chun Bao, but I can't see Qiu Bao. The whole story uses Chun Baoniang's longing for her two children as the conflicting point and her eventual inability to see each other again.
