Quitting the company and opening a cafe Episode 254
I didn’t know that the Chuseok gift set would be so effective.
It’s natural that the individual contents inside have effects, but I didn’t expect that to happen as a set.
Of course, this wasn’t all that surprising. What was more surprising was the content of the effect.
Blessing of the moon?
What is that soft thing?
It’s a rich Chuseok gift set, so if you’re going to do it, give it generously.
‘I feel like I should give it somewhere.’
By the way, what does the blessing of the moon mean?
It was a little difficult to know what it was with just this.
It wasn’t something I added separately, it was a set effect… … .
“The moon.”
The moon in the autumn sky felt a little brighter, higher, and bigger.
I don’t know if it was because of my mood, but that’s how it was.
What blessings does such a moon give?
A soft light that illuminates the dark night road?
A round and lovely shape?
“… … Well, that would be good.”
Since it wasn’t a curse, it seemed like a good thing.
Since the effects are said to be subtle, I think it would be possible to give it as a gift without any burden.
Once the aura of clarity was in the eyes of the dog, it was trustworthy.
“That’s good.”
I decided to make a few more quickly.
Place rags inside a large wooden box, put four items in a small box, and cushion them with rags.
The sets made in this way were piled up one by one.
“Is this enough?”
─Hehehe! This is fun!
“Does Sujeong want to be a gift set too?”
─Would you like a gift set?
“Well, I don’t know if a gift set would be good, but the recipient would be happy.”
When I said something to Soo-Jung, who seemed to be comfortable in a wooden box filled with rags and rolling around inside, the little guy tilted his head and asked.
The expression on his face was like he was thinking whether it was a good thing or not if the recipient was good.
He chuckled at the sight and took out the crystal.
“Let’s give the gift later and give it to them this time?”
─Yeah!
After cleaning up the mess, I made one last set.
For now, this seems like it would be enough.
I think there will be enough time to make a large quantity while on vacation and going to the mountains.
‘I don’t know about pear honey syrup or pomegranate honey syrup, but freshly made pie is still delicious.’
What this means is that what we’ve just created will be used right away.
I was going to give it to Hansong and send it to Mr. Heo Jeong.
and…….
“hello!”
“Oh, you came just in time.”
“Haha! Of course, it’s a virtue to keep promises.”
“That’s a good virtue. Oh, this is it.”
Just then, Bae Jun-ho came in with a smiling face.
He always looks so sad whenever I see him. I gave him a few gift sets that I had made.
“Oh! This is it. I think Grandpa and my brother would like this.”
“Then that would be great.”
The first Chuseok gift set I made was going to Grandpa Bae Hong-seok, Bae Jun-seong, and others.
In fact, I wanted to go and give it to him in person, but Grandfather Bae Hong-seok still stubbornly refused.
So I had no choice but to pass it on like this.
I’m giving it to you a little early because I was worried I might be busy then, so I wanted to make sure I didn’t forget and give it to you when I had time.
“There’s one for Mr. Bae Jun-ho. And if possible, could you give it to Mr. Kim Do-hyeok as well?”
“Oh, you’re a lawyer? Well, I guess so.”
“thank you.”
“What? You’re giving me something like this, so why bother with that much? Haha!”
“But can you lift all of this? It’s pretty heavy. Together… … .”
“it’s okay.”
Flash!
I realized that my worries were for nothing as I was able to balance the gift sets without knocking them over.
It’s stronger than I thought.
Bae Jun-ho went out with a leisurely smile.
I wanted to give him something to drink, but he said he had to go somewhere, so I didn’t hold on to him.
Half of the gift set I made disappeared in an instant.
I put the rest in the fridge for now because I can load it into the car before leaving tomorrow.
Well then… … let’s start preparing for a real picnic.
* * *
The next morning.
I woke up before the sun rose and went straight to the cafe to get ready.
Today was Sua’s picnic day and my vacation day.
“Time flies.”
It seems like it was two weeks ago when we made the plans, but it passed by in an instant.
Suah said she was excited yesterday and spent a lot of time at the cafe before finally returning home.
Do you need to lose weight to go to bed early?
But I don’t know why they do that in cafes.
Anyway, since I ran around the empty lot with Rangi, I guess I slept well.
‘But I still have a feeling it’ll come early.’
I decided to make it quickly before I came.
I preheated the oven and took out the hot dog bun dough I had made yesterday.
And I made the ingredients that would go inside one by one.
Onions, corn, sausages, etc.
The ingredients were quickly prepared for a recipe that had already been approved by Sua.
And then I prepared the sandwich ingredients.
The ingredients weren’t anything special.
Eggs, onions, and cheese, that’s it.
This was not an egg sandwich of my choice; it was purely a reflection of Sia’s wishes.
Boil and mash the eggs, mix with the chopped onions, then add honey, salt, pepper, and mayonnaise to complete the filling.
All you had to do was put cheese between the slices of bread, add a generous amount of filling, press it down, and cover it with another slice of bread.
Ding!
The same goes for hot dogs.
A simple lunch box is complete by adding the ingredients and packaging them.
Ding, ding, ding
“mister!”
Su-ah came at an incredible time.
I couldn’t help but laugh at the sight of him wearing a baseball jacket and going out for a real party.
“What do you think? This is better, right?”
“Yeah. That’s better.”
“Hehehe!”
In fact, there was a fashion show at the cafe yesterday.
I showed them a bunch of different outfits because they couldn’t decide what to wear for the picnic, and both Han Song-i and Lee Sun-ah had a hilarious comical show.
It seems that Su-ah doesn’t have any talent for choosing clothes.
I thought it was okay at the last performance, but I wondered why, and it turns out that it was actually Sia’s choice.
That was unexpected, but anyway.
In the end, the clothes that the two of them chose together were those. They were basic, yet good for activities, and also had a bit of a local vibe.
If there is one flaw… … .
“Are you going to go without braiding your hair?”
“I tried braiding it, but it was too difficult, so I gave up.”
“Really? Should I braid it for you?”
“Huh? Can you do it, sir?”
“It doesn’t seem difficult. What shape should I make it in?”
“Then this is it!”
This guy, he found something in advance.
I guess he tried really hard at home but failed and just came here.
Looking at the picture, it was an easy two-part hairstyle.
From there, the application is to roll it up like a poop head, which doesn’t seem difficult either.
“Okay, sit here.”
“Yes, sir, you are the best!”
It’s only at times like this that it’s the best.
Sua, who was sitting at the counter, turned around and sat down.
When I first saw you, you had a bowl cut, but you’ve grown a lot since then.
Now, holding onto the hair that was longer than his shoulders, he activated the Tenmu-pa.
Her hands moved like waves and she began braiding the hair one strand at a time, and before long, one side was finished.
“how is it?”
“Wow! Awesome!”
“Can you do the same for me too?”
“yes!”
Braid the other side in the same way to create a fresh and lively hairstyle that matches today’s fashion perfectly.
This way, there will be nothing to get in the way when you move around, so it will be convenient to move around.
“Okay. That’s it.”
“Wow! Dude, you’re such a rich kid!”
“You must have golden hands.”
“That’s it! Anyway, thank you!”
“Yeah. And don’t forget this.”
He also handed Su-ah a lunch box while she was looking at herself through her phone camera.
It was a hot dog and sandwich, well-wrapped so they wouldn’t shake, and a drink served separately in a tumbler.
“I’ll eat well! Huh? But what is this?”
“Chuseok allowance. I’m giving it to you in advance.”
“Huh?! Allowance? My grades aren’t out yet?”
“If you don’t like it, then don’t say anything.”
“No, no, no! I love it! And since I’m going to get the grade anyway, I’ll consider it an advance! Thank you!”
When I asked for it, he quickly replied no, which made me chuckle.
“Oh, right! Where did you say you were going?”
“Over there, towards Mt. Sokri.”
“Aha~ You said there was a temple there? I wanted to go there too.”
“We can go together next time.”
“yes!”
You’re talking nonsense when all you’re thinking about right now is going to the natural farm to play.
But it seemed like she wasn’t completely insincere, so we promised to go together later. And just then, Hansong-i also came to the cafe.
“Shall we go now?”
“yes!”
Suah decided to drop us off at school on our way there.
I thought the timing would be perfect, but the owner of the car was missing.
“It would have been nice if Seon-ah could have gone too, but it’s too bad.”
“It’s a date.”
Lee Sun-ah said she was going on a date with Kang Do-yoon.
That too to Seoul.
It had been quite some time since Kang Do-yoon left the village, so it had been a long time since the two had seen each other.
So I decided not to bother.
“I told the two of you who are dating to do whatever you want, and we’ll go quickly~!”
“okay.”
Suah urged them to go quickly.
Even if I go now, I’ll have to wait a long time anyway, so I’m complaining quite a bit.
I had no choice but to leave a little early.
We loaded our luggage into Lee Seon-ah’s compact car and drove straight into town.
‘… … Are they all like Su-ah?’
When we arrived in front of the elementary school, quite a few people were already there.
And the children were greeting each other with excited expressions and the adults were looking a little tired, as if they had met comrades.
“Have fun. If anything comes up, let me know.”
“yes!”
Soo-ah also left, and Han-song and I set off again.
Of course, I don’t know about Hansong, but Miho and Sujeong were also there.
─This is really amazing! It’s not even the power of the wind!
Kiyung~
As I opened the car door and started driving, Soo-Jung stuck her head out and said, “It’s amazing that the car is running.”
‘Sua came down, but it feels like Sua is here again.’
Is Su-ah like a spirit, or is the spirit like Su-ah?
They’re both bright and good, but sometimes it’s hard to keep up with the tension. Of course, it’s okay now.
“Wow~ The autumn leaves are really pretty.”
“I know.”
As Hansong said, it wasn’t just our village that was like that, but the mountains we saw along the road were also wearing autumn clothes.
Running through this scenery really felt like going on a picnic.
This, it wasn’t just Su-ah who was excited, I was also a little excited. I feel good.
Of course, that’s true since it’s just the beginning.
“There are still many mountains that have not been touched by humans. If you look at the places where people live, it seems like there are people all over the world.”
There was something strange about Hansong’s sentiment.
Should I say that the point of view is unique to Hansong?
“By the way, I heard the work is almost done?”
“Yes. This is really ending.”
“Then are you going to do the serialization together?”
“Yes! It’s been a while since you’ve done a series, so you’re really nervous, right?”
“I guess so.”
I drove slowly while chatting with Hansong-i.
It felt different from talking in a cafe.
It was different from when I went on vacation in the summer.
At that time, it was so noisy that I couldn’t think straight.
Even though Sujeong had Miho, she was much more relaxed than before.
“Oh, right. But, oppa, are you opening a cafe during Chuseok too?”
“Isn’t that right? There’s nowhere to go. Why? Aren’t you going to Seoul?”
“That was originally what I was going to do, but my family wanted to come down. Especially my mom and dad.”
“Really? Then I’ll tell you to come down. It’s nice to take a break in the countryside sometimes. If you come, I’ll bring you a café too.”
“Hmm. Is that so?”
I had nowhere to go anyway.
Because I was staying at my grandfather’s house in the first place.
My grandfather, my only blood relative, is gone, so I have no family left to meet.
Ah! It’s not like it doesn’t exist at all.
“It might not be available in the morning.”
“It’s morning? Where are you going?”
“I need to see my grandfather and my parents.”
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you.
