Years pass.

Wang Lung's sons grow up into educated young men, and he has grown so wealthy that he purchases the Great House.

Then, Wang Lung becomes besotted with Lotus ( Tilly Losch ), a pretty, young dancer at the local tea house, and makes her his second wife.

He begins to find fault with the worn-out O-Lan and gives her pearls to Lotus.
