Chapter 742 - 741 Conflict
Yet Jinhoo walked out, disheartened and downcast, but after some thought, he decided not to give up. Initially planning to leave the premises, he turned instead toward the backyard.
The backyard was quiet, still as death, with the door of the main house closed.
However, the door that connected to the neighboring Uncle Song Chongjin’s house was open, and Jinhoo knew they must be there.
He followed through the door and saw into Song Chongjin’s yard.
Song Chongjin was digging in the ground while talking to Wang Yongzhu, who sat under the eaves, her expression radiant as she peeled and ate dried fruits.
When Jinhoo arrived, Song Chongjin didn’t stop his work.
It was Wang Yongzhu who stepped forward, "Jinhoo, is something the matter?"
Just by looking at Jinhoo’s face, she knew there was an issue.
Jinhoo felt a bit embarrassed, "I was just walking around, Uncle, you’re not turning the soil correctly—" He caught sight of Song Chongjin’s technique and hastily intervened.
Stepping forward, he took the spade from Song Chongjin’s hand to demonstrate, "Uncle, what are you planning to plant here? Vegetables? Isn’t this plot a bit too small?"
Song Chongjin didn’t hide his intentions, taking the flask of water Wang Yongzhu handed him and downing half of it in one breath before speaking, "I was thinking of building a grape trellis for your Aunt in the yard, and plant a couple of bushes under the stairs."
