Chapter 1085
At this time, ine had just finished lunch and was directing and ordering Charlie around. He was
carrying an iron bucket and a shovel as he dug into the soil in the greenne of the vi area. 8
Over the past two days, ine had had nothing better t o do. She could not go out to y because
of her broken leg, and she was extremely bored at home. She had scrolled through her circle of
friends and realized that she had a female friend whom she did not have many dealings with in the
past who had also bought a vi in the suburbs. 4
Moreover, she even nted a lot of fruits and vegetables in the yard of her vi. When she shared
those photos of the fruits and vegetables that she had nted in her circle of friends, many people
had given her a thumbs up, saying that she was very smart and understood life. 6
ine had been very jealous. On a whim, she had also stated that she wanted to grow vegetables
and fruits i n the yard of their vi. 1
However, she had broken her leg and would not be able to shovel the ground. Hence, she could
only arrange for Charlie to do this kind of work. 6
Charlie originally did not want to entertain her at all. After all, he had already had a showdown with
herst time. If ine was to live in his vi in the future, she
would have to be polite and respectful toward him. Therefore, he would not allow her to order him
around. 6
However, when ire, his wife, heard that her mother wanted to grow some fruits and vegetables,
she also felt that this kind of thing would be able to edify her sentiments. Moreover, she would be
able to stay at home and live an honest life instead. Therefore, ire came forward to ask Charlie
for help. 9
This was the only reason why Charlie had agreed.
In his opinion, it would be a good idea to let ine grow some vegetables instead ofing up with
all sorts of wicked ideas all the time. 1
Therefore, after they were done eating, he helped her shovel some soil in the vi, and he had
already circled a ce for her to make her vegetable garden.
ine was standing using her crutch. At this time, she told Charlie, "After digging the loess, don''t
forget t o dig the ck soil too. The ck soil smells bad." 5

Charlie nodded slightly and lowered his head as he continued digging without saying anything else.
ine hesitated for a moment before she carefully asked Charlie something in a negotiating tone,"
Charlie, can I discuss something with you?”
When Charlie saw that her attitude was somewhat humble, he said lightly, "You can say it if you
have something to say. I will listen first."
ine smiled before she said, "When you have time, drive to the countryside and find some old
farmers from the countryside. After that, buy some vegetables and fruit trees with the roots intact
from those farmers. You should just buy the whole tree altogether."
Charlie replied, "Wouldn''t we be doing something absolutely unnecessary, then? If you want to buy
some vegetables and fruits, couldn''t you just buy it from the supermarket? You can even arrange for
them to deliver it to your doorstep for you." 1
ine was very dissatisfied with Charlie''s attitude and she felt very ufortable about it.
However, she did not dare to say anything. She could only smile as she pleaded her case, "Mom
wants you to buy the whole tree not because I want to eat the fruits and vegetables. I want you to
buy it so that we can nt it directly in our yard. Wouldn’t we be able to have a vegetable garden
right away then? Otherwise, we would have to nt the seeds and wait for them to grow slowly.
Who knows how long it is going to take for the seeds to grow into a tree?" i
Charlie gave up.
It seemed as though his mother-inw was anxious about this matter because she wanted to take
pictures and post it on her social media ount as soon as possible.
Just as he was thinking of rejecting her unreasonable request, ine hurriedly said, "My dear son-
inw, let me tell you the truth. ire really enjoyed growing vegetables and fruits ever since she
was a child. When she was young, she would often drag me and her father to go out and pick some
fruits and vegetables. When we entered other people''s vegetable garden in the countryside, ire
would always be very unwilling to leave." 5
Charlie eyed her suspiciously before he said, "When was this? Why haven''t I heard of this?"
ine hurriedly said, "ire already grew up after that. She had to go to school and work after that.
How could she possibly have the time to go to a vegetable garden? I swear to God. ire really
enjoyed these things when she was a child. As she was growing up, she also wanted to nt some
vegetables in the courtyard of the Wilson family vi, but the olddy was always reluctant to let her
do so."
Charlie thought to himself for a moment. If his wife really liked it, he would not mind making the
arrangements for it.
Thus, he took out his cell phone before calling ire and asked her, "Wife, it will already be the
weekend tomorrow. Do you want to go out and pick some fruits and vegetables?”
"Okay!" As soon as ire heard his words, she agreed immediately. "That would be perfect! Where
are we going to pick fruits and vegetables? How did you know that I enjoyed picking fruits and
vegetables?"
