In this short scene, the young narrator wishes to have only one drink with his uncle, who is also named Heung-sing. He wants to know why his uncle doesn't play cards with him and his friends. He also wishes that he could go to school with him, but his uncle refuses to allow him to do so. He tells the uncle that he wants to play cards, but the uncle refuses, saying that it's just a game. He then tells the narrator that he is jealous of his uncle because he always helps other people instead of him. The narrator then tells him that he would rather get drunk than leave the world. He asks the uncle to kiss him back, and the uncle agrees. The next day, the narrator feels a little familiar with the uncle.
