S1, Chapter 11 (Angry Gukk)

"Mother, why are you here?" Taehyung greeted.

Mother Kim smiled and did not answer Taehyung's query. Instead, she asked, "Taehyung, I came here at noon, but no one's here. Where did you go at noon?"

"Mother, We ate lunch at the Park Family's house. "

Mother Kim was doubtful. "Why did they invite you to eat at their house?"

Taehyung didn't tell the whole truth but said lightly: "I helped Aunt Park last time. That is why she asked us to eat at their house."

Mother Kim nodded when she heard Taehyung's answer.

Mother Kim lowered her head without worrying about it anymore and looked at the two children beside her. She said: "You can go and play with Brother Little Jae for a while, and then I will call you when the food is ready. "

After she finished talking to the two children, she rolled up her sleeves and went in. "Mother will cook for you."

Gukk pursed his lips, secretly saying that this meant that they were staying for dinner.

Gukk had no objection to Taehyung's Mother coming to eat with them, but his Mother brought the two children from his sister-in-law's family. The two children only followed their Mother to come to Gukk's house yesterday and bullied their Little Jae. Doesn't Taehyung's Mother know what happened yesterday? Even knowing what happened, she still brought the two children to eat dinner here. Gukk didn't believe that Yunchen was not involved in this affair.

Gukk believed that it was indeed Yunchen's idea. When she came here yesterday, she saw the steamed buns and plum cakes. Gukk guessed that she also saw the pork belly and meat bones they bought.

At that time, Yunchen wanted to take them all back, but Taehyung threw them out before they could snatch them. The two children could only take the steamed buns and plum cakes. She couldn't take the meat. That's why when they went back home, she felt unhappy and thought of a plan to have a share of the meat.

After thinking about it all night, Yunchen deliberately did not cook for Mother Kim. She ambiguously said to Mother Kim: "Mother, I saw that Brother Taehyung bought a lot of meat yesterday. Mother, I think brother-in-law should be filial to you. It's better for you to eat there, and why don't you bring Ming'er and Song'er to their uncle? "

Mother Kim moved her mouth and wanted to say something. However, Yunchen interrupted her directly: "Mother, I think Brother Taehyung must honor you. That's why I didn't cook for you and the two children at noon. Why don't you go to their house? These poor children usually live a hard life and can't eat anything good, so why don't you bring them to their uncle's house? If you don't go there, what can you eat? "

Mother Kim swallowed the words she was about to say and directly brought the two children to Taehyung's house.

Unexpectedly, the door of Taehyung's house was locked, and no one was at home.

When she went back, she was naturally nagged by Yunchen for a while. She could only make a coarse grain porridge to soothe her belly.

At dinner, Yunchen asked her to bring her two children to Taehyung's house again.

This time, her second son was finally at home.

Gukk looked at Mother Kim, who insisted on helping them cook their dinner. He glanced at Taehyung and didn't say anything. He continued to do what he was doing.

Taehyung opened his mouth and said to his Mother: "Mother, you don't need to help us cook. We are almost done. You can go out and sit. "

"Your Mother is not a kid. I will prepare the tableware. "

Mother Kim saw that the food was really ready. She turned around and took out the bowls and chopsticks from the cabinet and put them on the table.

The food was delivered to the table. The two children of Kim Daegi's family were already sitting on the square table. One person sat on one side, and there were only two seats left on the table.

Gukk didn't want to be polite to these two children and immediately spoke to the two children: "You two, move to the other side."

The two children didn't listen to Gukk and turned a deaf ear to his words, and sat comfortably without budging from their seats.

"Didn't you hear what I said? If you don't move, then you can't have your dinner. " Gukk said again.

The youngest one was dissatisfied and yelled at Gukk: "How dare you! Little Jae owed his life to us! You should take care of us when we come here to eat! "

When Gukk heard this, his scalp exploded, and his voice couldn't help but be stern. "Who said that Little Jae's life belongs to your family?! Who said that? Who wants to serve you?! "

The two children were still young after all. Gukk sternly scolded them, and they shrank, but they didn't move.

When Mother Kim's face didn't look good, she immediately came out and said, "Gukk, they are still young and ignorant. Don't fret over other family's children."

When Gukk heard Mother Kim's words, he was dissatisfied. What did she mean by they are young and ignorant? They are seven and eight years old. They are much older than Little Jae, but he knows what's right and what's wrong, so why can't they understand?

What's more, what they said, was what they heard from the adults surrounding them. If it wasn't because of the adults in their house, how could a child say something terrible? And what's wrong with Mother Kim? Didn't she hear what they said? Not only did she not teach them a lesson, but she defended them too.

Gukk was so angry that he just didn't mind he was talking to an elderly person., "Mother, didn't you hear what they said? How do the adults know what the children said was not good? Who said that our Little Jae's life belongs to them? Who said that our family should serve your family? "

When Mother Kim heard the words, her face became stiff. After a few seconds, she said unreservedly: "Where is the adult in the house who said that? It was the children who didn't know and learned them from outside. Don't think too much about it. "

Gukk can see that this Mother Kim was favouring the Big Brother's family and will not consider Taehyung at all.

Just as Gukk was thinking about how to restrain the two children, a figure flashed beside him. Taehyung took two steps forward, and in one hand, he grabbed the two children in their hands, picked them up, and moved them from the table.

The two children were violently picked up. They were screaming in fright, kicking their feet repeatedly, and yelling: "Dead lame, You! Let me down! I'm going to tell my Father and Mother! Let me down, dead lame! "

Taehyung turned a deaf ear, grabbed the two of them, and walked to the door.

Seeing that the two children were about to be thrown out, Mother Kim rushed forward and hugged Taehyung's leg, "Taehyung, don't be like this, they are young, don't hurt them. Taehyung, listen to Mother."

Mother Kim was hugging him. If he continues to drag the kids, Taehyung could hurt his Mother. After the pause, he put the two children down, but he watched them too harshly and shouted, "If you do it again, you know what will happen. Do you understand?! "

The two children immediately hid behind Mother Kim, but they didn't dare to scold him anymore.

Finally, Mother Kim let the two children sit on one side, Taehyung alone at the end of the table. Gukk took Little Jae. They were sitting in front of the two kids. Mother Kim sat on the other side, facing Taehyung.

When they were eating, the two children were gorging the food. The chopsticks were moving fast and non-stop. They also picked the meat tongs, piled up the meat in their rice bowls, and constantly stuffed their mouths.

At this time, the three of Gukk's family didn't eat much at all. If it weren't for Gukk's eyesight and quick hands to add a few more meats to Little Jae, who wouldn't even have been able to taste the meat.

Taehyung also put a few pieces of meat in Gukk's bowl, but he didn't eat anything himself.

The rice they cooked at noon was enough for their family of three. Now a few people came, the rice wasn't enough, and none of them was full.

Seeing that they were out of food, the two children cried and wanted to eat more. Mother Kim also looked at Gukk.

Gukk's face was not good, "I'm out of food. I only cooked for our family's portion at noon, so there is no more left. "

When the two children heard this, they refused to conform and immediately patted the table and yelled that they wanted to eat.

Taehyung put the bowl down violently, making a loud "BANG," and staring straight at the two children. Under such staring, their voices gradually became quieter until there was no sound.

The atmosphere was deadly silent, and Mother Kim came out to appease Taehyung. "Taehyung, I will tell your eldest brother what they did. Don't be angry. But Taehyung, this food was indeed too little for us to eat. Can you cook again? Just a little bit? "

Gukk laughed angrily but stopped talking and handed it to Taehyung to see how he would treat his Mother. He was an outsider. It's not good to say something. And maybe Taehyung will be displeased for disrespecting his Mother.

When Taehyung heard his Mother's words, his teeth clenched suddenly, as if all the words he was holding back finally went out. He said: "Mother, do you think I have money to buy rice when I am this poor. We eat big ballast porridge with pickles every day. It was Gukk who took out the last item on his body to buy these things. The food that he bought for Little Jae was stolen by his sister-in-law and his two nephews. Now, this dish is not enough for you. So what do you want me to do? Go out to beg for food? "

Mother Kim's head was getting lower and lower by Taehyung's words. Before she was nagged in her ears by her eldest daughter-in-law, she gradually felt that her second son had money hidden in his body, and he had a good life. When the second son said this, her guilt came up again, and she was speechless. It took a long time before she stood up with a flushed face and pulled the two children, "Taehyung, it's Mother's fault, then Mother is leaving."

After speaking, she hurried out with the two children.

Gukk looked at Mother Kim's figure without speaking, but it was funny in his heart. It seemed that Mother Kim would feel guilty every time and would run away after doing the deed.

When Mother Kim left, Gukk looked at the empty plates on the table, and his anger came up again. He finally bought something just to be fed to the stomach of other people, but he couldn't say it. He was really feeling aggrieved.

Taehyung glanced at Gukk's aggrieved face, his lips moved, and he wanted to say something. Finally, he sighed and stood up. He said: "I'll go to the kitchen and cook some porridge" and went to the kitchen.

Gukk didn't say anything, nor did he help him. He didn't want to move.

In the end, he ate a bit of porridge and finally didn't feel hungry. Gukk boiled some hot water and took a bath with the newly bought basin, then gave Little Jae a bath, and the family of three went to bed and rest.

After Gukk told Little Jae the story and coaxed him to sleep, the growing tension finally calmed down.

At that moment, one hand stretched over and held Gukk's hand, Gukk struggled to break free, but the hand that was holding him, held him even tighter.

In the darkness, Taehyung's slightly hoarse voice sounded, "Don't be angry. It won't happen again in the future. "

Gukk said nothing.

It took a long time for him to make an "um" sound.
