Farming Druid - Chapter 88
Only Noblemtl
088. Yeah – I see
The tree that started the engine turned towards the town.
The grandmother, who arrived in town, got out of the car and walked ahead with long strides.
I looked up at the building where my grandmother had stopped.
The largest outlet building in the metropolitan area.
[New Code Outlet]
“Let’s go in.”
“Here… … why?”
The tree was embarrassed when it saw the old woman entering the outlet.
The tree hesitated.
The grandmother looked at the tree.
Write it down-
The tree, seeing the grandmother’s expression, immediately lowered its tail.
‘Yes, I will go in.’
The outlet building on a rainy day was deserted.
My grandmother had already disappeared and was choosing clothes.
When the tree looks around.
“Tree—come here.”
The tree that approached the grandmother’s call sighed.
“Go try on the clothes that grandma picked out.”
I didn’t feel like it.
On the way into the locker room.
The employee looked at the old woman and pretended to know her.
“Oh my―. It’s been a long time since you came.”
“Hey―. Long time no see?”
“Yes, Mother. How long has it been since you came here?”
The grandmother also greeted the employee.
I looked at the tree leading to the changing room and asked my grandmother.
“Who is this young man, Mother?”
“My grandson.”
“Oh? Then―. That little thing?”
The old woman nodded as she saw the employee recalling his memories.
“Ugh.”
The employee started to get excited at the grandmother’s answer.
“Oh my, oh my―. That kid was so pretty even when he was little… … Oh my. There’s going to be a line of girls… … They’re going to line up.”
Namu’s ears turned red as he was changing clothes in the locker room, hearing the staff’s words in his ear.
‘I have no intention of dating that girl, but what the heck… … Ugh.’
The tree, having changed its clothes, opened the locker room door and came out.
The two women’s eyes widened.
“Oh my―”
“Oh my god―.”
The employee unconsciously placed both hands on his cheeks like a girl and looked surprised.
“Oh my―. They say clothes make the man… … They suit you so well.”
“He is tall and handsome. My grandson.”
A tone of voice that sounds very proud.
The smile never left my grandmother’s face.
The tree became shabby.
“Come out and change into something else.”
“…yes.”
My grandmother was so happy that I just swallowed my disapproval.
The tree wasn’t feeling so bad either.
Seeing my grandmother so happy made changing clothes seem like nothing.
Above all, I started to recall memories of when I lived at my grandmother’s house.
‘Why did I hate it so much back then… … .’
The tree that was smiling slyly changed its clothes.
I left the locker room.
The old woman, who was looking around at the trees, smiled brightly.
“Everything goes well together.”
The tree laughed bashfully at the grandmother’s words.
“Please pack up all the clothes I just changed into.”
“Mother—mother—”
The employee looked at the grandmother with a moved face.
“Just a moment, Mom. I’ll pack it up and bring it to you right away.”
The clerk took the clothes and headed to the checkout counter.
The tree looked at the grandmother’s expression.
I too had no choice but to swallow the words, ‘I have money.’
I couldn’t stop the grandmother who was in a good mood with a bright smile.
Instead, it was a tree that made a promise to buy delicious meat for lunch.
The old lady, who had bought clothes at the outlet mall, followed behind the tree with a cheerful gait.
“Would you like to try the meat that my grandson bought for me?”
“Yes. This is a recently opened butcher shop and the meat is really good.”
“Yeah, yeah. My grandson recommended it so much. Let’s go there sometime.”
Jo-son entered the butcher shop.
The beef was packaged and displayed by cut in a large refrigerated showcase.
The grandmother followed the tree and began picking up each piece of meat she wanted to eat and putting it in a basket.
?!
The moment the tree saw the meat that the grandmother had prepared, it was surprised.
I was wondering if you could eat all of that.
Let’s put the meat in the basket on the checkout counter.
I saw the restaurant owner’s eyes widen.
Beep- beep-
The manager, who had been scanning the barcode for a long time, said the amount shown on the POS machine.
“The total is 1,213,000 won. This price includes the cost of food for two people.”
“Yes, here’s the card.”
The tree held out a card.
The president accepted it politely and approved it.
The corners of the tree’s mouth slightly went up as it received the card back.
There was the amount of money for the pearl plate, and there was also the direct transaction contract fee with [SeeYou], so this amount was nothing.
It was my first time eating out with my grandmother in a long time, so I didn’t skimp on the food.
“Tree—come here.”
At the grandmother’s gesture, the tree sat down.
A tree sitting across from the grandmother who was sitting on the bench.
They started setting the table in the restaurant.
It was a simple side dish.
Appetizing red bean sprout kimchi.
I saw a container full of thinly sliced onions.
And a bowl containing sauce was placed in front of us.
The staff’s voice was heard.
“You can eat it by dipping the onions in the sauce.”
I put down the steamed egg that had risen up like a crater.
“Then enjoy your meal.”
The tree took the spoon and gave it to the grandmother.
at that time,
Another employee then placed hot charcoal in the middle of the table.
A honeycomb-shaped iron plate was placed on top.
The woodcutter grabbed the tongs and placed it on the grill, starting from the inner grill, and began to roast it.
It quickly became glossy and juicy.
After baking until slightly rare.
I placed the meat on a plate of sauce in front of my grandmother.
“I’m eating the meat my grandson grilled for me. I’ll eat well.”
“What is it? By the way, Grandma, can I eat this?”
The grandmother, who realized the meaning of the tree’s question, smiled and said.
“Because it’s different over there and here.”
Ah―. I understand.
The hidden meaning of grandma’s words.
You can eat as much as you want here.
It was said that if you eat the cow that became your food with gratitude, there would be no problem.
My grandmother inhaled the meat like she had starved for days.
‘You ate plenty last night and this morning… … .’
When I prepared dinner for my grandmother last night.
My grandmother ate several bowls of rice.
After eating pajeon and takju.
I was a little surprised to see people eating like that.
Besides, he said he didn’t have much of an appetite this morning and only ate one bowl of rice.
I wondered if it was because I didn’t eat much breakfast that I was like this.
Half of the meat was already gone.
“Grandma―. Eat slowly.”
I had no choice but to say this.
Originally, she was a young and beautiful woman, but now she looks like an old woman in her 80s.
“Yeah, I’m eating it myself.”
I flinched for a moment.
Now that I’ve mentioned it,
I knew from experience that if I said even one more word, there would be an uproar.
When I was in middle school.
Like telling grandma to eat slowly without knowing anything.
My grandmother said something like, “Why are you eating so hastily?”
I was once startled by the sight of an old woman overturning a table.
I guess I should just quietly grill some meat.
Chiiik— Chiiik—
It was really delicious.
The grandmother ordered not only meat, but also a hearty meal including samgyeopsal doenjang jjigae and bibimbap and mul naengmyeon.
The tree was a little surprised.
It makes you wonder, “Can that body type eat all that food?”
‘I think you would be popular as a mukbang creator.’
It was a tree that thought about all sorts of things.
The two grandchildren, having enjoyed a delicious lunch, left the restaurant.
After two people consumed over 1 million won worth of meat.
The grandmother came out of the store, patting her stomach.
I looked around the market.
“A lot has changed in just a few months.”
The tree heard the grandmother muttering and pointed to the newly opened cafe and asked.
“Grandma, would you like a cup of coffee?”
“Ugh―”
The sight of an old lady entering a cafe and ordering a bunch of sweet cakes and coffee.
The tree did not adapt.
Was it because we didn’t go to cafes or stores together when we came down before?
It was a little bit fun to see a new side of my grandmother.
There are sweet cakes and cookies on the table.
People’s eyes were focused on the tree, thinking it was eating it.
Choreup―
Drinks such as iced latte, iced strawberry latte, and grapefruit ade were placed in front of the grandmother.
There the tree looked at the grandmother while drinking a cup of iced Americano.
“Are you going to eat all of that?”
“Ugh―.”
“You just ate. Can you finish it?”
“Here it is. The rice and dessert stomachs are separate.”
“… … .”
The old lady who had covered the tree’s mouth ate the sweet potato again like a mukbang creator.
A tree that has a video of my grandmother eating recorded on her cell phone.
“It was really delicious, grandma.”
“Yeah. That’s what it takes to fit into that small body?”
“You must be feeling uneasy. Are you eating all that?”
People around me could hear whispers of admiration and concern as they watched my grandmother eat.
Choreup―
While sipping coffee through a straw.
I heard my grandmother’s voice.
“Tree―. Could you please order two chocolate Mont Blancs, three cream choux, and a glass of lemonade? If it’s not enough, I’ll give you some.”
“… No. I have the money. But… … Can you eat it all?”
“Ugh―”
After finishing his order, the tree continued to watch his grandmother eat.
It was really delicious, I ate a lot.
“Grandma. Did you run out of food at the meat restaurant?”
I couldn’t help but ask questions.
Because it looked like it was being eaten as a meal replacement in a combative manner.
“I ate less because my grandson bought it for me.”
Ahahaha―
It was a tree that laughed awkwardly.
You ate almost 1.2 million won worth of beef by yourself.
But it wasn’t enough… … .
You could have put more in.
Phew―
You really ate a lot.
I even heard people say I was a food fighter.
The old woman laughed heartily at the store owner who came to stop her, saying, “You’re eating like that, old man,” and then silenced the store owner with a single word, “Are you kicking out the customers who are increasing your sales?”
I was a little worried.
I wondered if he ate that much even when he was home alone.
ah!
I remembered a letter I had received in my mailbox.
[Guide to those eligible for health checkups]
After leaving the cafe.
Grandma got into the car.
The tree sent a text message to someone on its cell phone.
I got into the car and started it.
“Thanks to our grandson, today grandma really ate a lot as if her wish had come true.”
The tree, which was driving, asked the grandmother something he was curious about.
“Ahahaha – did you eat that much when you were alone?”
“No―. I don’t eat that much when I’m alone. The food doesn’t taste good.”
The tree smiled and nodded at the grandmother’s answer.
I am like that too.
Wouldn’t that be the case if you were my grandmother?
How delicious is the meal you eat ‘together’ when someone comes over?
“Grandma—what would you like to eat for dinner?”
“Let’s just eat some ssam for dinner.”
“yes-.”
As Namu headed home, wondering if there was pork belly in the freezer for his grandmother’s dinner menu.
* * *
Jiing— Jiiing—
“uh?”
Haneum’s eyes widened slightly when she received the letter from the tree.
‘Grandma’s here?’
It was a text message asking me to make a reservation since I was eligible for a health checkup.
Haneum quickly contacted a colleague who worked at the health checkup center.
“Yeah— I mean, could you maybe give me a spot during your medical checkup appointment?”
