Chapter 115 – Chapter 115
With so much food in front of my eyes, I immediately understood the worries Go Min-jung must have felt yesterday.
It was my house, so I thought it would be okay to leave it, but this was my girlfriend’s house.
“Thank you for this food!”
First, when her father ate with a spoon, he raised a spoon.
I put the rice in my mouth, keeping an eye on it as much as I could.
I was so nervous that I didn’t know if the rice was going into my mouth or my nose.
“How does it taste?”
My mother asked me, and I smiled brightly and praised her unconditionally.
“It’s really delicious! I think you’ll want to keep eating it no matter how many airs you eat.”
“Oh my~, she speaks beautifully~. There’s a lot of rice.”
Why does the word “A lot of rice” Sound so scary?
It definitely had a taste.
However, there was no time to savor the taste or to do so.
My father, who will become a father-in-law, was bluntly eating his meal.
“Can I get some more?”
There was still half an air left, but I quickly put it in my mouth and held out the rice air.
“Thank you!”
“Thank you so much for eating deliciously.”
Then, he piled up the air rice again and gave it to him.
I wondered if this would be what the farmhands eat.
It was not as much as the amount of food eaten in the old Joseon Dynasty, but as the number of air piled up, it became more than that of Joseon people.
“I still have more rice left.”
“If you give me, I will eat.”
Even though my stomach was about to burst, I pushed out air.
I knew too. I mean, this is stupid.
There was no one who didn’t know that it was good to know one’s own good and stop there.
However, I couldn’t refuse the place and atmosphere.
“Thank you! It’s so delicious that I keep going. I’m sorry.”
“Ah~, it’s okay, it’s my daughter’s boyfriend~”
While eating, I received a few trivial questions, but they were easy to answer.
Ko Min-jeong looked at me from the side with anxious and worried eyes.
I gave her a sign that I was okay with her glance.
It was just that my stomach wasn’t feeling well.
“I ate the whole pot. I want to give you more, but there is no rice.”
Mother looked at the rice cooker and made a sad face.
“It was so delicious that I wanted to eat it every day, haha.”
At my laughter, my mother also laughed.
Almost at the end, I didn’t know what the rice tasted like.
“Brother, are you okay?”
In response to Ko Min-jeong’s question, he barely held her hand under her table and nodded her head.
“Then~, of course. Hmm…”
I barely endured the burp coming out.
After I ate this much, my father and his future brother-in-law looked at me curiously.
It’s like seeing an animal in a zoo.
My father looked as if he understood my situation, but the son still looked curious.
However, he gave me a small thumbs up with a great face for a while.
It was hard to even smile when my stomach was full.
After the rice was finished, refreshments came out.
I explained that I bought it from a famous place and that it melts in my mouth, but to be honest, I couldn’t taste it.
I was worried that it would melt in my stomach, not my mouth.
“Since I live alone, it’s been so long since I ate a home-cooked meal like this, so it was so delicious.”
“I’ll do it again next time.”
My mother laughed and hit me on the shoulder, but I thought I was going crazy because I thought burps would come out.
She barely tolerated it, but felt better as time went on.
Since it was a tense position, it seemed that my body was adapting to it on its own.
She arrived around noon, ate, and chatted while drinking fruit, bread, and tea.
I was full and warm because it was home, but there was a problem.
I had to tell the truth about my pregnancy, but it wasn’t easy to get the timing right.
“That…”
She opened her mouth with difficulty.
Go Min-jung, who was sitting next to him, noticed and became nervous.
Seeing me and Ko Min-jung nervous, my brother-in-law was also nervous.
“So that…”
After she stopped talking, her father gave her a very unpleasant look.
“I want you to speak like a man.”
Still, it seemed that he was considerate of her daughter’s boyfriend.
I forced myself to hold back the cold sweat and nervousness, and closed my eyes.
“I want to marry Minjeong.”
“Marriage?”
Since it wasn’t a pregnancy story, the tension between the brother-in-law and Ko Min-jung was slightly relaxed.
“It’s been less than half a year since we met, but we’re married. Don’t you think it’s too short?”
Father’s words.
It was a natural idea for him, who has a young daughter in her mid-twenties.
“It’s only been half a year, but I’ve thought about it enough. I want to spend the rest of my life here with Minjung.”
“…”
The father’s expression gradually hardened. He didn’t like it because he was stubborn.
“No.”
Father’s firm words.
“Even if I can’t do it, Minjeong should take her place…”
“Dad! I’m getting married.”
Ko Min-jung opened her eyes straight and said.
“I’ll do it before I get twice as big.”
“…What?”
The expression of her mother, who was watching admirably from her side, also hardened.
“I’m sorry. Minjeong is doing…”
Before he could finish his words, his father stood up.
“Is that what I’m thinking right now?”
“Min Jung-ah, are you pregnant?”
Her mother hurriedly asked Ko Min-jeong, and she nodded her head.
Seeing her nod, her father’s face turned red with anger.
Fortunately, I didn’t curse or throw things, but that was more difficult.
If I had thrown something, I could have just accepted the anger with a groan.
My height or size didn’t matter.
The atmosphere that comes from people is different.
“I have a baby. You mean this. Minjeong-ah.”
“Huh.”
She saw an unexpected side of Go Min-jung. She sat rather proudly and spoke to her father in a clear voice.
“I told you. I want to get married. And what’s wrong with me with the person I love.”
“You…”
“I’ll even dry it!”
Her daughter’s stubbornness was the first time she’d seen her father.
Then she turned around.
“Where did I put my golf club?”
She could tell by the trembling of her voice that she was very angry.
Her brother-in-law was startled and stopped her father.
“Ah, Dad, what’s wrong. They say you two like each other. I like my mom too, so I got married. Why is that?”
“Let go. Do you think I sent the university to Seoul for nothing? I should have sent the army then.”
In the meantime, listening to the father-in-law’s words, I imagined Ko Min-jung in military uniform.
“Dad~! I’ll do it! If you refuse, I’ll leave the house!”
“…Go crazy, quit your job there and come up.”
After hanging her brother-in-law, she stumbled into the master bedroom. Even the muscular brother-in-law was not strong enough to stop his father.
Oh, even though it’s been a few months, I’ve had a good life thanks to my resume.
“Brother, why are you making that face? Get up quickly.”
Ko Min-jeong grabbed my forearm. Then he tried to take me outside in a hurry.
“Ah, no. No. Minjeong-ah. I definitely need to get a definite answer here.”
Udangtang!
I could hear things pouring from the corner of the room.
Iron gruck.
I wondered if something was being pulled out to make the sound of metal clashing.
I took out a golf club from inside, but I was holding in my hand a low-quality golf club made of welded iron pipes, probably made for practice by the unit.
The problem was that it was so thick and heavy that it would not be awkward to call it a golf club or an iron pipe.
“Uh…”
Just when I was thinking about something to do, my mother got up and stopped me.
“Honey, the child has already entered, so are you going to delete it?”
Stop.
He stopped at her mother’s words.
“If you’re going to oppose it, you have to make it clear. Break up immediately and come home, but either raise the child, or else allow it.”
“What? You can never erase it.”
“Then make my daughter a widow. The people in the neighborhood will really like it.”
Her mother’s way of speaking was very similar to Ko Min-jung’s.
Mother pretended that she had given up and stepped aside by her father, who stood in her way.
“Either making a widow at a young age, having children and living with your daughter for the rest of your life, or just allowing her to live happily ever after. Well, as a woman, I have the power~. Soldiers, take care of everything.”
That’s what I said, but there was only one option left anyway.
Empty.
He threw an iron pipe into the living room.
“…”
As much as she loved her daughter, she was furious, but as much as she loved her daughter, it seemed that she couldn’t do anything bad to her daughter.
As a conservative person, abortion was not an option.
“You, have a drink.”
Then she brought a high-alcohol-looking drink to the veranda cupboard, one in each hand, whether it was a gift or bought.
“Sit down.”
The father-in-law sat down with the iron pipe beside him. If she refused, it seemed that she would not be able to tear her bones.
“Dad!”
“You keep quiet.”
Ko Min-jung was awakened by the low voice.
“Ji, you must be really angry…”
He whispered to me, but as anyone can see, his father’s anger was all over his head, and he seemed to be barely holding it back because of his family.
If it was a unit, I wondered if it would have been circling the parade ground without rest. Also in full armour.
