Aurora has never accepted the pursuit of other men, and Emma has grown up cuddling and stumbling with her mother. When Emma grew up, she began to try her best to get rid of her mother's "tyranny": despite her mother's opposition, she married a graduate student with an unstable job... She spent thirty years to get rid of her mother's "tyranny", but in the end she discovered that she had never forgotten her dependence on her mother.
