The Marrying The Grim Reaper
Chapter 17: Jyeong's grandmother's children.
Yumi is accompanied by Gyu-Sik at Jyeong's grandmother's funeral. They came to the funeral home.
Yumi and Gyu-Sik arrive at the funeral home, they do not forget to give condolences and enter the main room of Jyeong's grandmother's funeral.
Two men stood near the altar filled with floral decorations and there was a picture of Jyeong's grandmother in the center.
Yumi and Gyu-Sik pay their last respects to Jyeong's grandmother, Yumi places a flower near the incense lit in front of the altar.
Yumi saluted the chief mourner, the eldest son of Jyeong's grandmother.
“Annyeonghaseyo, I am Lee Yumi.” Yumi greeted first.
“Lee Yumi?? Lee Yumi chakanim??” The fifty-year-old looked surprised.
“So you killed our mother?” Grandma Jyeong's second child suddenly approached Yumi and let out a high-pitched voice.
“What did you say? Take good care of your talk! It is not proper for an educated person like you to say such a horrible thing!!” Gyu-Sik stands in front of Yumi to protect Yumi.
“We've heard all from nurses in nursing homes, you purposely gave sweet pastries to our mother when you knew our mother's illness. Why are you doing that?” Said Grandma's eldest son Jyeong, although he looked calm but his tone sounded intimidating.
“I apologize in advance.” Yumi bowed her body.
“YOU THINK BY APOLOGIZING CAN MAKE OUR MOTHER COME BACK TO LIFE?!” Grandma Jyeong's second child is getting more emotional, she to loosen her tie because of the sultry meraaaa.
“Lee Yumi who actually told you to do that? Are there any of our business competitors who want our mother dead?” Her only daughter, Grandma Jyeong's youngest child walked into the room after hearing the commotion.
“Grandmother Jyeong is eager to eat with her children, daughter-in-law and grandchildren, but she never asked for it because her children are busy thinking about how to enrich themselves.
Grandma Jyeong is proud to have exemplified how to work hard so that their children can be financially independent.
But as a mother, Jyeong's grandmother felt lonely in her final days. Jyeong's grandmother was neither angry nor disappointed at the choice of her children who asked her to stay in a nursing home because SHE COULD NOT AFFORD to take care of her.
No teasing, not asking for the things she actually wants is the way Grandma Jyeong loves her children.” Yumi braced her heart to tell her what she heard from Jyeong's grandmother.
“Yak!! WHY ARE YOU SPEAKING HERE?!” Grandma Jyeong's daughter starts to get emotional.
“You were the last one to meet our mother, was there anything she got to you?” Grandma Jyeong's first child tried to look deeper.
“SAY! Our mother must be talking about something other than the nonsense you just said!!” Grandma Jyeong's second child is getting emotional for Yumi.
“Grandmother Jyeong left me her asset ownership papers. And also the last letter to his three children.” Jyeong's second and third grandmother's children immediately picked up the bag that Yumi handed over. Jyeong's grandmother's first child received four handwritten letters from Jyeong's grandmother.
“You sure you gave up everything?” Sindir the daughter of Grandma Jyeong.
Yumi just smiled wryly.
“Huhuhuhu.. mother, ma..af, huhuhu.” Grandma Jyeong's first child cried after reading a letter to her.
While his two younger siblings are busy checking securities belonging to Jyeong's grandmother.
“YAAAK!! You two are crazy, right?! IN FRONT OF THE LATE MOTHER and your mourners fuss over the division of treasures?!! You are not even interested in the letter you wrote last time for you!!” Grandma Jyeong's first child scolded her two unknowing siblings.
“Then I say goodbye, again I am sorry, good afternoon.” Yumi and Gyu-Sik leave the room. Outside the room mourners who were drinking alcohol and enjoying a gossipy food.
“Lee Yumi at least you take your share, cash from grandma Jyeong can you use vacation abroad.” Gyu-Sik said as he took off his black suit.
“Hmm.. You're right, you're richer than they are.” Gyu-Sik puts his hand on his chest, as if giving a sign that Yumi has a good heart wealth.
Yumi smiled.
“Lee Yumi chakanim wait a minute.”
Yumi and Gyu-Sik turned their heads when they heard the voice of Grandma Jyeong's first child running towards them.
“Gomawoyo, you have made happiness at the end of our mother's life. And I apologize on behalf of my sisters.” Grandma Jyeong's first child bowed.
Yumi and Gyu-Sik look at each other, they don't expect Grandma Jyeong's first child to do this.
“I've read the letter our mother gave you. Accept, this money is not our right.” Grandma Jyeong's first child gives an envelope containing cash that Jyeong's grandmother inherited for Yumi.
“No, I'm a nobody.” Yumi refused the gift.
“Receive, once again I thank and sorry.” Grandma Jyeong's first child went back into the prayer hall.
Yumi looked at the brown envelope that was in her hand.
“Thank you, the money is indeed your right.” Gyu-Sik tries to convince Yumi.
Yumi returned with tears.
“Hiks.. Han Gyu-Sik's.”
“Hmmm.”
“You have three days off from Jang sajangnim?"
"Yes, I told you your close relative passed away. Then he gave me three days off to cheer you up."
"Then let's use this money to improve my mood."
"By pleasure, hehe..Where are we going?" Gyu-Sik is already excited and imagines a vacation.
"Meet me up the mountain."
"WHAT?? Why go up the mountain?? We can go on vacation to nami island or to Jeju island with that money." Gyu-Sik disagrees with Yumi's idea.
"Why? What is the physicality of a weak angel of death?? Not strong on the mountain?" Yumi insinuates Gyu-Sik.
"Just kid you! Not so, but there are many vacation options that are not draining and troublesome."
"I don't feel that mountain climbing is troublesome, I love mountaineering."
"Hahh. yasudah it's up to you." Gyu-Sik walks ahead of Yumi in annoyance.
"Yeah! Wait for me the angel who doesn't like to go up the mountain!" Yumi likes to mock Gyu-Sik.
Gyu-Sik doesn't mind Yumi's words he keeps going.
