Chapter 288
Styx (2)
Ji Do-ik and Yang Jeong-ae had known each other for over 30 years.
Although there was some age difference, they were what you’d call a female friend and male friend. Something like that, right?
Anyway, Ji Do-ik had always found Yang Jeong-ae frustrating.
“Miss! Why do you keep running a business with such special abilities? Join a good guild and take it easy.”
“Oh my~ What nonsense are you spouting now, you old coot.”
She had precious abilities.
Yet she always did tough work, and dealing with people seemed difficult for her.
He knew that even if she made good money, nothing remained, which made him feel even more sorry for her.
“What nonsense? It’s all for you, Miss.”
Madam Yang Jeong-ae.
She worked for the poor.
The profits earned from Jeong-ae Restaurant, established in her name, were all used for local orphans and beggars.
During the day, she diligently served customers.
At night, she cooked for the hungry.
“Hoo, that’s just how I am. Heaven gave me these abilities for a reason. I just live gratefully.”
She provided rooms for orphans and those without homes.
For those with physical disabilities or illnesses who couldn’t afford care, she looked after them through her cooking.
She was satisfied with that life.
“……They’re worse off than me. If I go somewhere else, who will take care of Taesu next door? Who will look after the blind Bokja?”
Of course, Yang Jeong-ae had her standards.
