Chapter 94

After seeing the s.h.i.+m father-and-daughter pair, Yeo Ri laid out the beddings and made their beds .

It felt like it had been a long time since they slept together side-by-side . Although she felt happy about the arrangement, she found herself missing the nice, big bed of Jin Goo's guest room .

"It's not bedtime yet, so why did you lay out the beddings, Yeo Ri-ah?" Gun asked quizzically . The sun was still high up in the sky, so he wondered why she was doing it so early .

"So that I won't have to do it later," Yeo Ri replied with a mischievous smile .

"Alright, then . " Gun smiled helplessly in response . He thought that it was fine . Yeo Ri had been working very hard to maintain the household as the only female in the house, so it was alright if she didn't want to bother anymore . They had already left that house anyways, so it was fine for her to do whatever she wants .

The trio spent the next few hours arranging their belongings . They didn't have much to begin with, so they took their time .

Left with so much time to spare, Yeo Ri decided to clean the house . She found an old rag and a small broom-and-duster in one of the cupboards and swept the entire house clean .

Neither Gun nor Hyuk wanted to let her do everything by herself, so they also helped out .

Although the house was relatively small, it was still tiring to clean the whole place in detail .

That night, they decided to get delivery food instead since there were no ingredients to cook and they didn't have the energy to go out . However, just as they made the call, their door was knocked again .

Gun motioned Yeo Ri to sit down just as she got ready to open the door .

He opened the door, "Yes?"

"Aigoo, you're the new tenants who just moved in, right? Here, have some dinner . I made too much today," the middle-aged lady by the door says, unceremoniously inviting herself into the house . She held a small pot in her hands .

Gun looked at the woman strangely, "Excuse me, but who are you?"

"Ah, I'm the landlord's wife . You can just call me 'Auntie'!" The woman grinned . She looked around the house, but there didn't seem to be a table for her to put the food she had brought along . She headed to the kitchen familiarly, setting it down on the counter .

"Where's the dining table?" She asked the Lee trio who seemed dumbfounded by her actions . "Omo, could it be that you guys don't have one? How about a portable table? There should be one left by the previous tenant, I think . "

"Ah, yes, it's over here . . . " Yeo Ri snapped out of her thoughts and immediately pulled out the portable table that they had found while doing their cleaning .

She hastily set it up in the middle of the room .

The woman nodded in satisfaction . "Do you have rice?"

"No—" Yeo Ri didn't manage to finish her sentence before being cut off by the older woman .

Auntie s.h.i.+m slapped her forehead, "Of course you wouldn't! I'm so stupid! You all just moved in, how can there be any groceries in the house yet! Aigoo, so dumb, so dumb . " She pulled out a phone from her pocket, dialling a number .

"Daughter! Can you scoop some rice and bring it here? And some kimchi too . " She paused for a moment to hear her daughter's reply . "Where? Here! The new tenant's house!"

"Hurry up, or they might die from starvation . Aigoo, you slug!" Auntie s.h.i.+m chastised as she ended the call . Then, she smiled at the trio, "Just wait a bit, my daughter will bring some rice for you . "

The Lee trio was speechless . It was their first time meeting such a bold woman . On top of that, she was kind enough to share some food with them .

Yeo Ri hurriedly bowed in grat.i.tude, "Thank you very much, Auntie . "

Gun similarly thanked her, and while he was a bit awkward, Hyuk also lowered his head in thanks .

"Aigoo, don't mention it!" The woman chuckled . They were young and polite, so she was immediately taken by the new tenants . She smiled warmly at them, "If you don't have any food in the house, come and have dinner with us . " She openly invited them to her house .

"Thank you very much," they repeated again .

Soon afterwards, s.h.i.+m Yu Mi arrived, carrying a bowl of kimchi and a larger bowl filled to the brim with rice .
