Song Chongjin didn't expect Wang Yongzhu to agree immediately; he was already very content that she would consider it and take it to heart.
They still parted ways at the crossroads. After Wang Yongzhu had walked a couple of steps, Song Chongjin suddenly called out to her, "I need to go out tomorrow and can't accompany you to town. Take Jindou or Jinhoo with you."
Now that he knew of a lead, he would surely investigate it the next day. Even though he knew Wang Yongzhu could handle herself, he couldn't help but worry.
Wang Yongzhu nodded and after a moment of thought, she advised, "Be careful on your trip!"
After all, he was going out for her sake; it would be remiss not to say anything.
It seemed that she was becoming increasingly indebted to Song Chongjin; it wasn't right to remain in debt like this forever. Wang Yongzhu pondered; she had to find a way to repay the favor.
Upon returning home, she tossed the meat she bought to Lady Jiang to deal with.
