At the house of Su'ci's parents, the Governess tells her grandmother that she's considering adopting a boy. The Governess says that she doesn't have a problem with the idea, but that the boy needs the family's help because he's poor and needs to be adopted. She's not sure if she'll be able to accept the boy, but she does want to help him. She tells her grandma that she likes boys at the family meetings, and that's why she wants to adopt him. Grandma is nervous that she might lose her job and be criticized for being a gay person, but says that it's because she likes the boy so much that she can't bear to let him go. She also tells her that sixteen years ago, she discovered that she liked boys when she was a student at the university. She says that the only thing that bothered her about the boy was that he was lonely.
