“What have you been eating, you have a face like this.”
The grandmother stroked the cheeks of her granddaughter, who became thinner than usual.
He was a child who always ate happily and was full, but seeing him so dry, it felt like my heart was being ripped apart.
“It’s just. I haven’t tasted rice lately..”
At Yerin’s words, the grandmother snorted.
“Anyway, there’s no such thing as a city meal. Grandma will go home and feed her until she’s full, innagra.”
Yerin, who had other business to do, did not agree and did not speak.
She persisted without getting up from her seat, and decided to solve her curiosity first.
“More than that, Grandma, how did you get to Daegu?”
The grandmother’s eyes narrowed narrowly at the granddaughter’s question.
She got up from her chair, patted her back, and answered with a short sigh.
“Si-hyeon got a call from Ami. You’re in the hospital, so I’m asking you to come see me.”
Erin’s mouth widened. At the completely unexpected answer, my already hazy mind became more complicated.
“Shi, Si-hyeon talked to her mother? How does she know her grandmother’s phone number!?”
“I’ve seen your face a few times at your elementary school sports day. I called out your number to take a good look at you.”
So, is it possible to make calls using Grandma’s cell phone?
Shihyeon’s home and Chinese restaurant are already empty. And Yerin knew that her phone number was blocked by all of his family members.
She quickly borrowed her cell phone and tried to call Se-hee.
[There is no phone number you are calling now..]
In case u have any questions u can refer to uwumtl dot com for references
But all I can hear is the dry voice of the electronic b*tch.
Yerin decided that her grandmother’s number was also blocked or that Sehee had changed her phone number.
Then he hurriedly returned the used cell phone and said.
“Ha, Grandma. Thank you for your advice, but I have a business in Incheon. So I don’t think we can go to the West Sea together.”
Yerin got up from the bed.
A suitcase bag found while looking around. Fortunately, there seemed to be no damage.
‘Grandma can walk you to the terminal..’
Yerin checked the train time on her cell phone.
At that time, she was going to invite her grandmother, who had made a reservation with plenty of time to go out after stopping by the terminal.
“Are you going to Incheon to find Si-hyeon?”
“uh..?”
A completely unexpected remark came from the grandmother, whom she thought she knew nothing about.
“How did Grandma do that?”
“Sihyeon heard everything from Ami. Is it all true that she caused a lot of trouble to her?”
“……..”
Yerin, who was hesitating, bowed her head in her spot, and Grandma sat back down on the chair.
An old man who soothes his exhausted chest by beating him. He unraveled the deep sorrow in his mournful voice.
“What is love, my daughter and granddaughter are like this.. Why am I so anxious that I can’t ruin my life myself…!”
Yerin approached quickly and grabbed the hand of the self-harmful grandmother.
“Stop it, Grandma.”
The body, already weakened, should not have been subjected to even a small shock.
So I held on to the writhing grandmother, and the old man, who only shed tears because of this, forced his eyes wide open.
“Yerin, you.. If you don’t want to see your grandmother go out with a vase, I’ll come with you right away.”
“Not as much as that. I…!”
“Aww, what are you doing without packing your luggage!”
Yerin nodded her head at the grandmother’s loud shouting.
Canceling the reserved train. She took an express bus and followed her to the West Sea.
After receiving the villagers’ welcome, I went into my grandmother’s house.
“For now, wait here. I’ll prepare the rice first.”
“yes..”
While Grandma was cooking in the kitchen, Yerin hugged her knees and buried her head in her shin.
She couldn’t afford to be like this, but she didn’t know what Grandma would do if she disappeared without a word.
As a person who supports her life with Shihyeon, Yerin could not easily ignore her grandmother’s words.
“Since the rice is ready, come and try it.”
“okay..”
Yerin looked around the table her grandmother had prepared.
Japchae, oysters, grilled fish, octopus and spicy soup, etc. It was a grandma’s dinner table I haven’t seen in a long time.
“I will enjoy this food..”
Yerin ate the steaming rice with a spoon.
It’s been a while since I’ve tasted warm home-cooked food.
Yerin, who was biting the spoon, burst into tears once again.
“Shut up..!”
“Omme.. Why is he crying while eating?”
The old woman who put down her spoon approached her granddaughter and hugged her crying granddaughter in her arms.
Then her granddaughter’s trembling gesture resonates throughout her body.
Surely there have been times like this in the past?
The grandmother sighed heavily as she recalled the days when her daughter lost her spouse.
***
same time.
Chae-yeon and Si-hyeon visited her parents-in-law’s house in Busan.
“Mother! Give me your son!”
As soon as she visited, Chaeyeon knelt down and banged her head on the ground.
Due to her sudden fighting spirit, all of Shihyeon’s family were at a loss for words.
And after some time passed, Se-hee, who had been dumbfounded, opened her mouth.
“You want a son.. Are you saying that you want me to marry Si-hyeon?”
“yes that’s right.”
Chaeyeon answered without raising her head.
Her appearance was abject, but she was so desperate that she didn’t care.
“After discussing with Si-hyeon, I decided not to go to college and learn work from my mother and father. But if I start learning in earnest, the preparation period for marriage will be shortened.
The mother-in-law scratched the back of her head and looked at her husband. Seeing the shrug, my husband seems to agree.
‘Agree only with a gesture, but in fact, you’re leaving all the choices to me.’
Se-hee snorted and fell into trouble.
‘They’re only in their early 20s, but they’re already getting married..’
Se-hee wondered if this was correct, but I thought that kids these days are quick no matter what they do.
If you refuse here, will you be behind the times?
The prospective daughter-in-law and son are hoping for this much, so maybe I can just allow it.
Se-hee, who had been thinking deeply, opened her mouth only when Chae-yeon’s knees were numb.
“You’re right, but… is it really okay if I don’t go to college?”
“I went because of my academic background. I didn’t go there to learn anything. I don’t think anything will change after graduating.”
“okay..”
After a while, Se-hee nodded.
Then, after raising Chaeyeon’s upper body, she looked into her eyes and said.
“Okay. Everything is good.. Instead, there is a condition.”
“What is that?”
Chaeyeon knelt down and took a listening posture. It’s a condition my mother suggested, but I couldn’t let it go.
The rest of the wait for the next word. Chaeyeon, who had her head tilted forward, succeeded in listening to her mother’s condition.
“Even if you get married, don’t have children for a while.”
“yes..?”
Chaeyeon’s eyes became the size of glass beads at the remarks that sounded clear.
In Chaeyeon’s head, the member of the soccer team, which consists of her son, disappears.
That’s all. Even the daughters, who were to cling to Vision together, began to disappear gradually, so the whole circuit of happiness she had envisioned began to get tangled up.
“Huh? Mother. Why is the baby…”
“If you have a child while you are learning to work, it’s no big deal. At least you have to be able to run the store on your own, because Nana and Si-hyeon’s father will take care of the child.”
Did you have such a deep meaning?
Chaeyeon, who regained the vitality of her eyes, asked with a serious voice.
“Then how long should we delay?”
“About one to two years. By then, you’ll be in a state of experience.”
Two years is a long enough period to bear.
After a brief thought, Chaeyeon nodded her head.
“I will obey my mother’s advice. Even if I get married, I will use birth control until I get used to it.”
The sooner you learn to work, the sooner you will be able to have children. Chaeyeon burned fighting spirit in both eyes.

Meanwhile, Se-hee said while stroking the girl’s hair.
“Yeah. Then I’ll allow it, so choose the wedding venue carefully.”
“Yes, thank you very much!”
There was no talk about money between Se-hee and Chae-yeon.
That’s because Chaeyeon mentioned the bankbook she received from her parents in advance.
If it hadn’t been for this, the marriage would most likely have been delayed for a long time.
‘Mom, thank you so much..’
Chaeyeon clenched her chest tightly and said thanks inside. Then, with a bright smile, he ran towards Si-hyeon.
“Sihyun-ah, you finally did it!!”
She pecks a bird kiss on her boyfriend’s cheek, saying that the marriage was officially approved.
Shihyeon, who was equally happy at this, rubbed the ball saying it went well.
‘Isn’t it so good that they just gave me permission to get married?’

My mother-in-law only watched the scene with happy eyes.
