"Well, Aunt, there's no need to dig into these matters any further. You're thinking too far ahead. Young Master Xie was just joking around; he doesn't actually have any intentions towards me as you say."
"Besides, as a woman who has been through a separation and is now exiled here, there are some things I choose not to think about."
