How would you interpret ‘yielded’ in here? Trying to steer the conversation onto her family proved difficult, but ultimately yielded Parthenia’s fascinating diagnosis of Sister Violet’s yen for self-improvement: “Our mother read the books. We believe it made her tubercular.” How would you interpret ‘yielded’ in here? I think it means made Parthenia speak out her opinion, right? Thanks!

Yield is 'give up'. After some persuasion, she finally agreed to disclose this information.
