I woke up to my father’s nagging, and started eating dinner while watching TV in the living room.

    “Haha. No matter how precious the fishing rod is, it can’t do as much as waking up my son!”

    “You should stop now too.”

    “No. I can’t give up on this. When I see my son’s annoyed expression when he wakes up, the stress from that day is completely relieved, right? Haha.”

    “”…..””

    The family ate quietly as Dad’s father spoke.

    “But you said you’re moving next year. Shouldn’t you be looking into it now?”

    “I should find out soon.”

    I forgot to mention that I was moving because I was sending my child to an international middle school next year.

    “Do you really have to go there? Do you have to?”

    “But my grandfather said he wanted me to go, so how can I refuse?”

    “Why can’t I refuse?”

    “Your grandfather has been so considerate of you all this time, listening to your mother’s stubbornness.”

    “Then I’ll go and tell you while I’m greeting you.”

    “Why? Because of Sae-ah?”

    “That’s right, and Mom likes living here too.”

    My mother listened to me and thought for a while without answering.

    “But how can I send my son alone? Let’s go together.”

    “No. I wanted to go to my dad’s company too, so I’ll go alone.”

    “Haha. You wanted to come to my son’s company? Tell me!”

    “I didn’t want to go that much, and tomorrow, after Sae-ah finishes studying, I’ll take a taxi and go alone.”

    “Haha. Okay, I’ll tell Grandpa. Call me when you get to work. Dad will come down.”

    “Yeah.”

    I was starting to feel excited about going to work for the first time in my life.

    It’s a world of difference from going to work, and it’s my first time in the chairman’s office where my grandfather is.

    After eating and watching TV, I fell asleep with an excited heart.

    ***

    When I opened my eyes in the morning, I washed up and started getting ready to go out, thinking I would just teach my older sister and then go to my father’s company.

    But since it’s a company, I guess it’s a bit weird to wear sportswear like usual.

    I called my sister wearing black slacks and a shirt I rarely wear.

    My sister answered the phone even though it hadn’t even rang a few times, probably because she had woken up early.

    I briefly explained today’s circumstances to my sister and headed to her house.

    “Hello.”

    “Oh, son-in-law. You dressed nicely today?”

    “Yes. I’m going to see my grandfather.”

    “Jaehoon. Are you going to do it in your room?”

    “Yeah.”

    I just waited in the living room all day. It was my sister’s room that I was entering for the first time.

    Rather than feeling like it was particularly like a girl’s room, it was just okay, not much different from my room.

    I brought a chair and sat down next to my sister. As I looked around the bookshelf, I saw a book that I shouldn’t have seen.

    “Sister. Didn’t you say you don’t like Snow White?”

    “Huh? It’s just a book my mom bought me when I was little.”

    “Really?”

    My older sister seemed a bit embarrassed for some reason.

    Well, that could be possible if it’s a book your mother-in-law bought you.

    It’s a banned book in my house, but not here.

    After helping my sister study for a little over an hour, it was already 11 o’clock.

    Since Grandpa would be busy, I had to go out soon to make it to lunchtime.

    “Sister. I’ll say hello to Grandpa soon, have lunch, and then come back.”

    “Okay. Okay.”

    After saying goodbye to my mother-in-law and leaving my sister’s house, I caught a taxi on the main road.

    It took about thirty minutes to get to the company.

    After paying the bill with the card my grandfather gave me, I went downstairs and called my dad.

    -Yeah, son!

    -I’ve arrived.

    -Already? You should have called when you came.

    -Don’t you usually come around lunchtime?

    -But I still have to call. Dad is out so I can’t go right now.

    -Then what should I do?

    -I’ll call the lobby. Come in in about three minutes, son.

    -okay.

    After 3 minutes, I entered the building and headed to the lobby.

    “Hello. I am the chairman’s grandson and I came to see you.”

    “Ah. Yes! Hello. This is your visit card. Wear it around your neck and stamp it before you go in. ”

    “Yes. Thank you.”

    I said hello to the overly friendly information desk staff and headed to the elevator.

    Let’s stand in front of the elevator that is coming down and wait.

    Then the door opened and someone got out.

    They say enemies meet on a single-log bridge.

    “Hello, my second aunt.”

    “What’s your nephew doing here?”

    “I just want to see grandpa for a minute.”

    My second aunt, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time, and a woman who seemed to be my secretary were standing behind me.

    The elevator closed, but I couldn’t get on in the end. My second aunt continued speaking.

    “Isn’t your new sister coming with you?”

    “Yes. I just came alone.”

    “What are you going to do if you send her away alone, Unnie? Tsk tsk.”

    My second aunt kept picking a fight with me until the very end when I tried to just say hello and leave.

    “Where is your aunt going? To eat?”

    “…..”

    “It’s not even lunch time yet. Are you really hungry?”

    “That’s because I didn’t eat breakfast. What does that have to do with you?”

    “The older sister behind me seems to take good care of herself, but my aunt is always a mess, so that’s why.”

    “This is real!”

    My aunt who tries to feed me honey chestnuts.

    Maybe you learned boxing for this day.

    I dodged lightly and casted Dis on my aunt.

    “Do some exercise. You can’t even feed your nephew chestnuts right in front of you. If it was your older sister behind you, you wouldn’t have been able to avoid it, right?’

    “Are you really going to say something like that every time?”

    “Tsk tsk, when will you click your tongue first?”

    Perhaps because it was before lunch time, there weren’t many employees around, but because it was so noisy, some eyes started to gather.

    My aunt pretended not to know me and left, embarrassed.

    When my aunt got a little further away, I shouted at her.

    “Auntie! Fighting with your diet~!”

    “That’s real!”

    Only after smiling brightly at my aunt who was glaring at me was I able to get on the elevator.

    When I got to the top floor and the door opened, I was able to enter the president’s office following the secretary who had been waiting to hear my call.

    The atmosphere of the chairman’s office is very different from when I came in my previous life, perhaps because the owner is different.

    “Hello, Grandpa.”

    “Your eldest grandson is here? You’ve grown up so much.”

    “I’m a middle school student, so I need to grow up.”

    “So why did our eldest grandson come to the company?”

    My grandfather looked at me with very curious eyes.

    I started to say the words I had thought of beforehand.

    “Grandpa. I take after my mom, so I’m very smart.”

    “That’s right. He’s definitely different from my son.”

    “My dad told me to go to an international middle school. Honestly, to me, a neighborhood middle school and an international middle school are the same.”

    “Um… Jangson But it’s different from a regular school. There’s a reason why smart kids gather here.”

    “My mom is so good at educating me that I plan to take the GED exam right after graduating from middle school and go to college.”

    “Huh? Are you sure?”

    “I can still solve high school problems right away.”

    My grandfather stared at me with a face that said he couldn’t believe it.

    “Why don’t you go to an international middle school?”

    “I like where I live now.”

    “Eldest grandson. No matter what, you can’t lie to your grandfather, right?”

    “Mom and Dad know too.”

    My grandfather stared at me again and then pressed the phone next to him to call his secretary.

    “Can you please get me a high school workbook?”

    “It may be difficult right away, but I can print it out, Chairman.”

    “Then just pick it out yourself.”

    After the secretary said goodbye and left, the atmosphere was quiet for a while.

    Soon after, the secretary brought out a printout.

    “Jangson. I think you’ll be really disappointed if you can’t solve this?”

    “Can you solve it?”

    “If you let it go, you have to do as the eldest grandson wants.”

    I immediately unwrapped the printout placed in front of me, and the secretary finished grading it on the spot.

    “Chairman. You are all correct.”

    “Are you sure?”

    “Yes.”

    “Hahahaha. I told you that you’ve definitely chosen a good daughter-in-law. Isn’t there anything you want as the eldest grandson?”

    “Yes, I’m fine. Please take care of Mom.”

    “Haha. Yeah. You didn’t eat, right?”

    “Yes.”

    “It’s time, let’s go eat.”

    As I got up from my grandfather’s seat and left the chairman’s office, I met the security guards whom I hadn’t seen in a long time since the vacation.

    “Hello.”

    “Yes. Hello.

    “You can speak comfortably.”

    “Haha.”

    “I will take care of you even after the vacation is over.”

    “It’s our job.”

    “I was surprised because these guys aren’t the type of guys who would get hit somewhere. Haha.”

    The grandfather who was watching from the side smiled as he remembered what had happened before.

    Soon after, we arrived at the restaurant after about 30 minutes of driving.

    It’s my first time seeing this, but it’s a famous place, a hanok house full of expensive cars.

    “I came to a samgyetang restaurant because it’s the hottest day of the year. Is it okay?”

    “Yes, I enjoyed it all.”

    “Okay. Let’s go in.”

    I thought there were a lot of cars. It seems like there were a lot of people at the samgyetang restaurant because it was the hottest day of the year.

    As I got out of the car and was about to enter the front door, I ran into my second aunt again.

    “Dad!”

    “There are people from the company too, so what’s your dad like?”

    “Oh, Chairman.”

    “Did you eat and come out?”

    “Yes, that’s right.”

    “What time did you come? You’re already out? Aren’t you working?”

    “I came early to eat quickly and get to work.”

    My second aunt who makes excuses that don’t work.

    “Hello, second aunt. Did you eat a lot?”

    “…..”

    I asked with a bright smile if she had eaten a lot, and my second aunt glared at me.

    “You don’t even respond when the eldest grandson speaks?”

    “No. Mr. Chairman. This guy…”

    “What is the eldest grandson?”

    “No. Enjoy your meal.”

    I kept a bright smile on my second aunt’s face until the end.

    My second aunt, who greeted my grandfather, seemed very angry because of me.

    I walked towards the parking lot with powerful steps that seemed very heavy.

    My grandfather and I went back into the restaurant.

    A few people sitting in the waiting room, apparently because there were too many people and there were no seats available.

    The old man standing in front of me asked if I knew anyone.

    “I guess you came here to eat samgyetang because it’s the hottest day of the year?”

    “What does it matter whether I eat or not?”

    Two people who I don’t know if they are close or not.

    “Who did you come with and why are you here alone?”

    “I came with my son-in-law. He went to the bathroom.”

    “Ah. That son-in-law? You didn’t even treat him well, so why?”

    “What does it matter to the old man? Is there a grandson next to him?”

    “Our eldest grandson!”

    “Hello. This is Seo Jae-hoon.”

    “Fortunately, he doesn’t look like his grandfather, so he’s handsome.”

    “Haha. Yes.”

    Immediately after, the son-in-law of the person in front of me is coming.

    “Why are you always so slow?”

    Suddenly, he looked behind me and shouted at me.

    I turned around to say hello.

    Let’s look at the face. It’s a face I’ve seen a lot.

    The craftsman was coming.

    Our eyes met.

    They were both embarrassed.
