In this short scene, we learn that the former king has come to visit his daughter-in-law. He asks her why she has come, and she tells him that she wants to know the kind of person she is. The former king tells her that the family has accepted her as their son in law, and that he is going to let her marry her son easily. He then asks her what test she should give him to see if she will marry him. She says that she would be happy to give him her symbol, which is a flower, if he would whisper to her that she should be closer to her son
