Traveling back in time to take care of Sung Deok-sun

Chapter 190 Fallen Leaves Gather and Scatter

"The small bowl is here~", but Sun-young didn't hear her and took the small bowl to serve him soup.

"Let me do it~", Cui Wusheng took the bowl and served himself.

"Ouch~ what happened?"

"How did it get on by itself?"

"Haven't you been clinging to me and asking for my help lately...?"

As Shanying laughed, her voice suddenly softened. She picked up her large bowl of soy milk, sat down, and began to drink it.

My hands are trembling a little for some reason...

"Does your wrist hurt again?"

"Would you like some ointment?"

The observant Ms. Leopard noticed her condition and asked with concern.

"No need..." Sun-young smiled and waved her hand in refusal.

"Oh right! Aze needs to eat too! There's no one to take care of him!" Li Yihua suddenly remembered.

"Mom~ Don't worry about Taek~ We'll be right there~", Deok-sun waved to Lee Il-hwa, who happened to hear her speaking.

Li Yihua and the others looked over. Liu Shuyu was carrying a plate, Zheng Huan was holding a large bowl of soup, and De Shan was leading the way.

In an instant, only Yu Hui, Zheng Feng, Bora, and Sunwoo remained sitting at the small table.

"Wow, these kids have such a great relationship!"

"From now on, it would be great if we could all live in the same alley forever!"

"When my grandchildren grow up, things will definitely be just as good as they are now!"

Jin Chengjun looked at the group and said with longing in his eyes.

"Hey, you've only had a few drinks and you're already talking nonsense."

"Their kids aren't even in college yet, and they're already thinking about their grandchildren!"

"Besides, I'll definitely want to live in a big house in the future!"

"Are we supposed to live in that underground space forever?"

After drinking, Sung Dong-il spoke with a bit more confidence.

"You even know we live in a semi-basement?"

"I told you to drink less and buy less stuff!"

Li Yihua gets inexplicably angry whenever this is mentioned.

"Okay, okay~"

"Now we live in a big house!"

"Hey~!"

Ms. Leopard pointed to Liu Shuyu's house.

"I don't even dare to dream of a house as big as Shuyu's; I'd be happy to have my own little place."

Li Yihua glared at Cheng Dongri with annoyance.

"Why do you always look down on your husband?!"

"Let me tell you, the bank recently told me they're going to promote me!"

"I'll be able to get more of my salary in the future!"

"I'll buy you any house, big or small!"

Cheng Dongri drank another cup, his face flushed, and made a promise to Li Yihua.

"What? A promotion?"

"Aigoo~ They've gone mad, they've drunk themselves into madness~"

Is your son a bank manager?

"Raise your pillow a little higher when you sleep tonight, and have sweet dreams!"

Looking at the drunken Cheng Dongri, Li Yihua assumed he was talking nonsense.

"Cut~"

Sung Dong-il drank a glass of wine and tilted his head to the side.

"I'm more than capable of being a bank manager!"

"Alright, alright, let's toast to President Cheng~" Kim Sung-kyun joked as he clinked glasses with him.

..........

Afterword:

"Kim Sung-kyun, you step forward!" Sung Dong-il, his hair graying, stood in the yard and roared at Ms. Leopard's house.

"Hey? What are you doing?"

"You old man, instead of taking a nap at home, you come here to argue with me?"

Kim Sung-kyun walked down the stairs with one hand behind his back and his back bent, holding onto the railing.

"Your grandson tricked my grandson again, saying he used my wine to feed the fish. You have to compensate me!"

Sung Dong-il gave him a lecture, his temper undiminished.

"If you're just here to freeload, then freeload! Why make up so many excuses?"

"Is Deok-sun forbidding you from drinking again?"

Kim Sung-kyun saw right through him.

"Hehe~ You really understand me, old buddy~"

Even with his wrinkled face, Sung Dong-il still sports that same hearty smile from back then.

"We've known each other for so many years~"

"I don't know you yet?"

Kim Sung-kyun smiled and pointed at him with his right index finger, waving it up and down.

Sung Dong-il chuckled.

Two elderly people, nearing 100 years old, teased each other like children whose mischief had been exposed.

"Besides, aren't those all Shuyu's wines?"

"When did it become yours?"

Kim Sung-kyun took his hand and led him up the stairs.

"What's mine is mine, isn't it?"

"What? Are you envious that I have such a good, filial, and wealthy son-in-law?"

Sung Dong-il looked at him with a face full of pride.

"I envy you? My daughter-in-law treats us just as well~", Kim Sung-kyun didn't even want to look at his proud expression~

I've been watching it for decades~

"Haha~~ Seriously, your Zhengfeng has always been lucky~"

"But~ our Soo-kyung isn't bad either~!"

As Cheng Dong-il listened to him, he started comparing her to his own daughter-in-law again.

The children of yesteryear have now become just like they once were.

They too have become nearly 100 years old.

The grandchildren, just like their parents did back then, gathered in the room singing, dancing, and having a party.

In this area where high-rise buildings are gradually rising, Fenghuangtang Hutong remains as it always has been.

"Speaking of which, you used to work at a bank, Shuyu must have helped you a lot, right?"

"I see you were promoted to bank manager eventually!"

Kim Sung-kyun's voice came from inside the door.

"Hey~ stop talking about it, I thought it was because my abilities were being recognized~"

"The result is that I got Shuyu's approval~"

"Hahaha~~~"

Cheng Dongri closed the door, and the sound of his voice stopped abruptly as the door closed.

In the quiet courtyard, fallen leaves once again rustled in the wind.

The leaves, trampled underfoot, scattered again with the wind and flew into the sky.

A leaf landed in front of the basement window.

A leaf drifted to the salamander's house~

A leaf landed at Sunwoo's house.

A leaf flew to Aze's house~

..........

Deok-sun reached out and swatted a leaf away.

"Honestly, the winter wind is so cold and annoying!"

"You damn Masahiro, quickly cover the food, or Ze will be eating leaf soup later!"

After Deok-sun finished speaking, she quickly pushed open Taek's door.

"Hey, Sung Deok-sun! Seriously, why are you only talking about me!"

"Shuyu isn't human!"

Jung-hwan, unconvinced, shouted at Deok-sun.

"Soo-yeon~~~", Seo-woo silently added for Deok-sun, even he was infected by Lee Il-hwa's enthusiasm and subconsciously added it as well~

"Hey Aze~ Where are you? Your big sister's brought you some food~"

Deok-sun, like a Japanese soldier sneaking into a village, stealthily made her way to Taek's door, swaying and twisting from side to side, rubbing her hands together like flies.

"Hey~ this is your girlfriend?" Jung-hwan couldn't bear to look at Deok-sun anymore, so he looked at Yoo Seo-woo and complained.

"Isn't it great?"

"Full of energy!"

Liu Shuyu shrugged, looking like he was already used to it.
