Chapter 1395 – How Can He Look So Much Like His Father?
Parenting was not the only change that occurred as the family increased by one member. Customers came every day to see our Jihoo, who resembles the devil and me. For example, like our mom and dad today.
“Son! Are you going to just hang out at home because sexy girls make money? If you don’t want to be kicked out, you have to at least help yourself! What kind of house is this! This!”
“No, Mom. “I’ll clean it myself.”
“When! When are you going to do it! Hi! Oh my god! What did our girls see when they married a son like this! “What sin did I commit in my past life?”
Around lunchtime, my mom and dad suddenly came to visit. Her mother started nagging her when she saw the kitchen full of traces of lunch. When I said one excuse, she responded with ten words and cleaned up her sink.
“…”
Dad stood silently in the living room, looking down at Jihoo in the cradle. His face, which had been so blunt as if he were angry, was filled with a happy mood. Of course, the stern expression did not change at all.
“Son! What is this!”
Instead of looking at my dad and my son in the living room, I looked at my mom. Mom called in a sharp voice and held up a frying pan full of grease.
“How dare you feed your first baby something so greasy! How many times will I tell her that her breasts are lumpy, and no milk is coming out?”
“No, Mom. “This is what I ate with grilled meat.”
“What? The eldest baby sleeps because she is tired from looking after the baby, and the second and third babies go out to work. “Is your husband sitting around eating grilled meat?”
“It’s okay. I’ll do the dishes. “Give it to me.”
“Why, instead of wiping off the grease with a paper towel, you’re just going to wash the dishes with dish detergent! Oh, my! What should I do if detergent is a waste? Because detergent is a waste!”
“Then you don’t waste kitchen towels?”
“It’s noisy, you! “Go with dad and check on the baby!”
“Okay…”
The kitchen, which was usually my area, became my mom’s. After being chased into her living room, I glanced over her shoulder at her mom, who was washing the dishes, and approached her dad.
“…”
Dad was still looking down at Ji-hoo in the cradle. Jihoo, who had just been fed breakfast and was sleeping soundly, was as lovely as always.
“Isn’t my son pretty?”
“…”
Glancing, nodding
He glanced at me standing next to him and gave a short nod with his blunt face. Even in front of his grandchild, his stiff expression did not change at all, but his downturned eyes seemed to be dripping with love.
“Oh my?”
The Demon King’s voice came from behind. When I turned my head and looked, the Demon King was standing wearing a white dress-like indoor coat instead of the green sweatpants he always wore.
“Mother? Father? When did you come?”
There was no way the devil didn’t know that my mom and dad had come. Even if she wasn’t like Minah, she was the type of person who noticed even if she muttered behind her back. In addition, the fact that she changed into clean clothes was strong evidence.
“Oh my, my first child. Are you awake?”
While her mother was cleaning up her kitchen, she came out into the living room. She walked up to the Demon King, who greeted her with a shy smile, and took both of her hands and apologized.
“Sorry. “I was too loud, wasn’t I?”
“No. “I came out because I had enough rest, mother.”
“No. No. “Go in and get some rest.”
“How can I do that when my mother can’t rest in peace? “I will help you.”
“There is no need for that. Son! Son! You go and do the dishes! Clean the entire kitchen!”
“Then I will come and help you. Mother.”
“Oh! Done! First baby! “Our Jiheon has been working in restaurants since he was young, so he’s good at these things.”
“Ho ho ho. Sure. Maybe it’s because he takes after his mother’s taste, but he cooks delicious food. But, I think my mother’s tastes better.”
“Ohhohoho! So?”
They seemed to be a better match than me, her husband. The Demon King and Mom approached the living room sofa, talking as if they had made a promise. They sat there side by side and looked at me at the same time.
“Mother. “I’ll bring you a cup of tea.”
“It’s done. “What can I do with a husband who doesn’t work?”
“Okay. “I’ll ride.”
It would have been better to just confidently tell him to get in the car, but I made him go by noticing it. I went into the kitchen grumbling.
I knew why my mom was like this. Mawang was the daughter of a rich family and the owner of a building, Sehee was her younger brother, and Minah was the president of a company. I was worried that my son would be scolded by his proud wives.
Of course it was a useless worry. Even though they were all mischievous towards me, they never treated me carelessly. Even though there was a time when they buried my head in the sand and trampled me.
“Ugh…”
Anyway, I had four cups of herbal tea, including my dad’s and mine. I could faintly hear whining coming from the living room, so I immediately left the kitchen.
“Mom. “Is the kid awake?”
“No. Are you okay? “Go and take care of your work.”
Mom, who was sitting on the living room sofa and talking to the devil, was already in front of the cradle. Her mother placed her hand on the rim of her crib and looked down at Jihoo inside.
“Oh my. Jihoo. Did you wake up because you wanted to see grandma? Did you miss her grandmother that much?”
“…”
“Please say something too.”
Even now, Dad was standing next to the cradle with his back turned. It was only after her mother nagged her by gently tapping her side with her elbow that she opened her tightly closed mouth.
“… “I am a grandfather.”
Oh my god. Dad said that. He is a person who thinks about whether to speak once a day. Even two words at once.
Whenever she was with Yena, she would sneak up on her and secretly give her pocket money. Looking at that, I could see how much my dad wanted to see his grandchild.
“Hi! Is that what you said? Just now?”
My mom didn’t approve of that, though.
“Ugh, uhhh…”
At this time, a small whining sound echoed in the living room. Mom lowered herself into her crib without looking at her father with her bewildered gaze. Not long after that, our Ji-hoo came out in her grandmother’s arms.
“It’s a joke. Our grandchildren. Are you surprised? Are you surprised? “Our grandchildren?”
As someone who raised me, I seemed to be more skilled at raising a baby than Taeyeon. Mom made little noises with her tongue, moving our jihoo up and down.
“Uhm, yes, uhm”
Even after this, Jihoo didn’t stop whining. The Demon King, who had been fidgeting on the living room sofa earlier, couldn’t help himself and stood up.
“Mother. “I guess Ji-hoo is hungry.”
“No. “First baby.”
“I’ll take the bottle, okay?”
“I’m not hungry.”
He waved it again at the Demon King, who was about to head to the kitchen. To comfort Jihu, his mother did not stop his shaking body and told him why he kept whining.
“When your baby is hungry, prick her cheek with your finger. If she puts her mouth to it then, she’s hungry. Also, she doesn’t cry like this when she’s hungry.”
“Oh, then? “Mother?”
“I’m just complaining because I’m bored right now. In that case, just do it like this. Like this. Oh my, oh my.”
Jihoo was excited as if he wanted to see this. Then the whining noise really decreased. The Demon King returned to the living room and looked at my mother with a curious look.
“Oh my, oh my. Jihoo has really stopped. Mother.”
“Right?”
Mom smiled proudly at the approaching demon king, and muttered happily when she saw Jihoo in her arms.
“How can I look so much like my dad?”
“…”
“No. Not you. “Your son.”
My dad looked at my mom because he had heard the word “Dad” The most up until now. Her mother’s face turned sour, and she pointed to her blade. When I saw Jihoo again, it was with a happy smile.
“If our Jiheon does this too, he’ll snap out of it! I did it. Looks exactly like her dad. Very just. “Dunga dunga dunga.”
I thought about when I was a baby. Of course, I don’t remember that time, and like Ji-hoo, when I was young, I would have been held in my mother’s arms like that. In the arms of my mother, who would have been 20 years younger than she is now.
“…”
At that time, I wondered if my father was like that too. Even if I was still as blunt and silent as ever, she would have seen me in my mother’s arms with a much younger face.
“Uh, Mom.”
For a moment, I got choked up and couldn’t speak. I somehow pretended nothing was wrong and called her mom and asked, pointing to her kitchen.
“Mom. Shall we bring snacks along with the tea?”
“So, you came to Mom and Dad, and she just gave you water and sent you away?”
“Why don’t they give you tap water? Wait and see. “I’ll bring it.”
“Uh oh. Our grandson Should I take a picture with her grandmother?”
While he answered me roughly, he was extremely kind to Jihoo. Still, I wasn’t disappointed anymore. She went into her kitchen, leaving her mom to tell her dad to take out her phone.
“Ruler. “I brought the car here.”
When I came out with tea and snacks on a tray, my father was holding Ji-hoo in his arms. The Demon King and Mom were sitting on the sofa again and talking.
“Did you? Did Jiheon go to a Taekwondo academy?”
“I did. There was a Taekwondo academy nearby, and since Jiheon was smart, I sent him to Taekwondo. “At least it’s not a waste of money.”
“Oh, kinda. “Mom.”
The emotion she had felt earlier was completely shattered. Still, she put the tray down on the living room table and handed over the tea cup first.
“Mom. “Here.”
“Huh. But what kind of car is this?”
“I don’t know either. Minah, my sister got it as a gift.”
“Okay? Hmm, it smells perfect. Whoop!”
“I heard that a cup of tea costs 100,000 won at a foreign café.”
“Pugh?!”
“Uh? Mom. I just threw away 100,000 won. Pay it later when you go. “In cash.”
“You… !”
My mother, who had burst out laughing at the exaggerated truth, glared at me. She raised her hand as if she was going to hit him on the back, but because she had her first daughter-in-law, the Demon King, she didn’t swing. He glared at me once more and continued his story.
“But what did my baby go to?”
“I also attended kendo. Even though I look like this, I went to the competition and won a prize. “To win first place.”
“Oh my god, really?”
“Yes. Oh, that’s right.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Oh, no. Mother. “Don’t worry.”
When I told my dad to put Jihoo down and drink tea, those words also bothered me. The Demon King, who deliberately caught my mother’s attention, immediately started talking.
“There was an older brother I knew back then. They say he opened a kendo gym near here? “It suddenly occurred to me.”
“Oh, really? “Shouldn’t you go then?”
“No. Where am I going to leave Jihoo? “I have to watch Jihoo.”
“No. When someone opens a business, it’s polite to at least send flowers. We will see Ji-hoo, so go and show your face.”
“… !”
At that moment, the Demon King’s blue eyes sparkled. As if it were a good opportunity.
