79 – Episode 79
I came to my grandfather’s house after a long time and nothing had changed from before.
Paintings and pottery of unknown value The huge mansion featured in the drama was a place where it would be difficult to tell whether we were dreaming or reality.
“This…this is really my grandfather’s house…” ?”
“Yes, this is the house that my grandfather built so that we could live in a place with good air.”
“But… “It disappeared later, didn’t it?”
“It was sold rather than lost, because that’s what my grandfather left in his will.”
“Ah…”
My grandfather has four children, including my father.
They are like uncles to me.
However, as is the case with rich people’s families, the relationship is not very good, except for one person, the youngest uncle.
“Wow…”
Seo-ah must have heard about my family history from her mother long ago, so I didn’t bother to explain it to her.
“Seoya, whatever is said from the other side, listen with one ear and let it out with the other.”
Her parents were worried about Seo-ah, and I was also worried.
In the future, our family relationship almost ended after my grandfather passed away.
“It’s okay. “No matter what my mother and father say, I will ignore it.”
Is it this way? Seo Ada is a professional in the field.
She didn’t want to hear her words that hurt her, but they were people she had to meet at least once anyway.
“Oh! Are you my brother? Long time no see!”
At that time, a person appeared in the hallway wearing light sweatpants.
“Ha.. Jang Hoon, please dress up when your family gets together.”
“What do you think? My brother’s father doesn’t say anything either. Ah! Hello, sister-in-law and Jihoon! And…Well”
Her uncle, her little father, whom I mentioned earlier, looked at her child for a moment and then
“Did you give birth to a child?”
“Ugh.. Master, I told you so.”
“..? Uh, ah! That Jihoon is his girlfriend! And! Jihoon, are you more manly than you look?”
My uncle put his arm around me and winked at me.
“Ah..Hello, uncle-in-law…”
“Why are you making it so difficult? Just call me uncle and you don’t have any children yet.”
“Uh.. Is that so? “I understand, uncle.”
“Don’t scare her, Seo-ah is definitely our family too.”
“Actually, they are my family, but they sold my name and put it under my family register.”
“Not only did you put it in, but didn’t you explain it?”
“Oh, that’s right. Anyway, welcome. To our Lee family”
“Thank you..”
“Oh, and there’s one thing I need to say.”

“…Yes?”
The uncle suddenly looked at Seo-ah seriously and said,
“This isn’t the cozy cage you know. It’s a war zone. What you say can be the fault of your entire family.”
“Always be polite and never say a word to them, you know?”
“Yes, I understand.”
Seo Ah also gave her strength and said, straightening her back more.
“hahahahaha, he’s the eldest son of our family anyway, so who cares? “If you ask me, scare me with money.”
“It was here! Hey!!”
“Ah..”
“Ah, I’m here, sister-in-law”
“Yeah, sister, didn’t my husband say something strange again?”
“Well.. I didn’t say anything”
The person who screamed was my aunt.
“Wow, Jihoon, it’s been a while. Did you say Seoah is next to you? Nice to meet you. I’m your aunt who lives with this stupid husband.”
“Ah..Hello”
“It’s okay, there’s nothing to be nervous about. I was also very nervous when I first came here, but if your father… or grandfather, likes it, then that’s the end of the story in this family. When I heard it, my grandfather was bragging about being my grandson and daughter-in-law.”
“Ahahahaha…”
“Then let’s go, baby.”
“Hey, I want to talk more with Seo-ah, isn’t she really pretty?!”
“I agree with that, but I shouldn’t be meeting my family now!”
My aunt took her uncle and started to go with us.
“What about the other guys?”
“Well, no, I came first in the first place, to impress my father like that.”
“Ha.. It would be great if the other two guys were even half as similar to you.”
“Wouldn’t it be even bigger if I resembled my uncle even half as much?”
While my parents and uncle were walking away talking, we arrived at the restaurant.
“Let’s go in and everyone will be waiting for you.”
“Oh, you’re here now! “Our grandson”
“Hello, Grandpa, have you been healthy?”
“hahahahaha! “Thanks to you, there was a reason why you told me to get a health checkup.”
“Are you here? “Brother and.. Jihoon.”
“…”
When we sat down, the table was full of people.
“Thank you for your hard work on the way to Chuseok”
“No. “Father, by the way, did Jihoon tell you to get a health checkup?”
My second uncle asked my grandfather. Maybe he didn’t hear it, or maybe he heard it, but there was another reason.
“Yes, my grandson told me to take care of my health and ask him to do it.”
“hahahaha, you haven’t corrected yet, what kind of health check-up is this?”
Then the third father smiled and looked at me.
“You haven’t corrected it yet, so you don’t have to worry. “Jihoon”
“Okay, you should study rather than worry about grandpa.”
The third father’s aunt next to him nodded and said
“What are you talking about? You should get a health checkup when you are healthy!”
Then the grandfather opened his mouth.
“If it wasn’t for Jihoon, I didn’t even know I was dying.”
“..Yes?”
The second uncle stayed quiet, but the third uncle was surprised and asked back.
“Jihoon asked me to get a health check-up, and when I did, I found out that I had stage 1 pancreatic cancer.”
“Yes!?”
“Is that true, Father?!”
“Yes, fortunately it was before it metastasized, so I was no longer in this world.”
“Jihoon told me to take care of it! “I sometimes talk to you, but you don’t listen.”
The second uncle smiled and said, but on the contrary, the third uncle was shaken by the fact that he was the only one who did not know this fact.
“That’s right, you always call me saying your back hurts. That’s a good thing!”
My uncle smiled and looked at me and gave me a thumbs up.
“Anyway, I’m glad the surgery went well.”
“Yes, I said it wasn’t necessary, but I even paid you to do only what I didn’t ask you to do.”
The grandfather grumbled at his father’s words, but smiled slightly as if he was grateful on the inside.
“Well then, my family is all gathered, let’s have a meal.”
As the grandfather clapped, people outside came in and started putting food on the table.
“…”
Seo-ah opened her eyes wide and looked around as the food was being served.
Of course, it’s only natural that I can only see things that look expensive.
“Okay, everyone, let’s eat.”
Everyone carefully picked up their utensils and began to eat.
No one was talking while eating, but everyone’s eyes were looking in our direction.
To be exact, I was looking at Seo-ah.
“It’s delicious, Jihoon.”
“Right? “Try this too. It’s salmon roe.”
“Oh, it’s unique”
Seo Ah naturally used forks and knives starting from the outside.
“…”
Everyone probably expected Seo-ah to only misuse her, but she is no stranger to it.
How often did I go to her restaurant?
Of course, she used them well the first time she went, but she didn’t know proper etiquette or how to use them, so she asked me why I had so many forks and spoons.
“Afterwards, I was full and ate well. Father”
“Ugh.. I didn’t prepare it for you to enjoy. I brought it all to give to her granddaughter and daughter-in-law.”
After a rather breathtaking meal, her uncle looked at us while picking his teeth with a toothpick.
“Did you eat well too?”
“Your uncle”
“Yes, I enjoyed it, uncle-in-law.”
“Yes, that’s a good thing. I was wondering what I would do if it didn’t suit my taste.”
“That’s right or…” What was that? “I was going to give you that soup or something like that.”
They already blatantly hate it.
It looks like my third uncle is planning to completely submerge us.
“Stop it”
“…”
Of course, her grandfather’s words made her quiet, but
“Let’s change seats. Jaesa is meeting later at night, so we should talk about things we haven’t been able to talk about for a while.”
“Yes”
As I left the restaurant, I saw my cousins.
The fat one is the second uncle’s son.
The other one was the third uncle’s daughter who had a slightly fierce look.
The two younger fathers are taking the lead and following their grandfather, but
“Brother, are you free this week?”
“Time? “Why is that?”
“Hasn’t it been a while since you and Jihoon talked about it? “It’s been a while since I have some free time, so I’m planning on taking them on a trip abroad.”
“He’s a senior in high school and busy studying.”
“Huh? “Our Jihoon is studying?”
“You idiot, if you’re a senior in high school, you should definitely do it.”
“I’m doing well because Seo-ah is helping me.”
“Oh, I did. Sister? Wow.. Seo-ah is amazing?”
On the other hand, my family and my uncle were just having normal family conversations.
“Well, there are a lot of people, so let’s talk here.”
Grandfather led us into the living room.
“How have you been?”
“What am I doing?”
“Then, brother, what will happen after the CSAT is over?”
Since we are not a family of owners of some kind of company, but rather a family raised by a wealthy grandfather, there were no major comings and goings.
“Now then, we should introduce Seo-ah. Come here.”
“…”
And the moment came when Seo-ah was officially introduced to our family.
