One night, O-lan approaches Wang Lung with terrible news. She tells him that his eldest son has been visiting Lotus in the inner courts when he is gone. Wang Lung does not believe her, but O-lan says he can confirm it by coming back from the fields earlier than expected one day. Later that night Lotus refuses his company and he begins to wonder. He returns from the fields unexpected the next day and finds his son talking with Lotus. Enraged, Wang Lung beats them both and exiles his son, telling him to go south and never return until he is asked.
