In the living room.
After Mother Manoban was awakened by a well-placed pinch, she sat on a chair with an expressionless face.
Hobi soundlessly gestured at Lisa and swiped his hand across his neck.
Father was smoking a cigarette as he looked at his daughter. With a sigh, he finally reined in his murderous aura and said to the overwhelmed Jungkook: "You, go and feed the pigs."
"Ah...yes...feed the pigs." Jungkook was dumbfounded.
"Oy, hurry up and go, the pig food is in the black barrel in the kitchen. Go carry that to the pigsty at the back." Hobi knew that Father wanted to hold a family meeting, so he hurriedly urged Jungkook.
Jungkook wasn't comfortable leaving Lisa alone in this situation, but Lisa smiled and motioned him out too.
In the end, Jungkook uneasily left for the kitchen.
Lisa scrutinized her mother's face and felt that her old woman body has had enough time to digest the previous series of events. So she began to speak: "Mom, don't be angry."
"How can I not be?" Mother straightened and said, "You...you...with him...when all is said and done..."
"Didn't you already see exactly what's been done?"
"You..." Mother began to feel faint again.
"Mom, calm, calm down." Hobi hurriedly passed her a cup of tea.
Mother waved away Hobi and pointed a trembling finger towards Lisa: "You...you...just how did I end up raising such a girl...don't you know the meaning of restraint?"
"Mom, don't worry so much, they're in love and couples nowadays..." Hobi wanted to help defuse the situation but ended up being scared off by Mother's fierce eyes.
"You're a girl, how can you lack so much self-respect? In my time, you think you'd still be able to marry out?" Mother scolded
"Then I won't get married."
During your time it was also common to be forced into an arranged marriage. In your era, a girl who couldn't marry out would be considered an embarrassment by her family. When Lisa thought of this, she couldn't help but be angry. She couldn't resist arguing these things back to her mother.
"You..." Mother was speechless.
"How can you talk to your mother like that?" Father who had never spoken until now, was angry.
"Oh." Lisa lowered her head.
"Forget it, let that Jungkook come in and ask him when he's marrying you." Mother breathed out while she placed a hand over her chest.
"You're not grilling them anymore?" Hobi was surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Does this mean you approve?"
"Your sister has already been taken..." Mother couldn't help but shed a few tears. "What would be the point of investigating further? We can now only hope that he's a responsible man. Just be good to your sister when you pay the dowry."
"Mom..." Hobi was speechless; did his mother just push the cost of the dowry to him?
Lisa had never doubted her mother's love for her, but the generation gap, educational gap, and their different personalities doomed them to never see eye to eye. Every time her mother cries, Lisa would feel extremely sad and guilty. Even when she clearly did nothing wrong, her mother would always attack her heart by shedding tears.
"Mom..." Lisa wanted to tell her mother the truth. In fact, Jungkook already gave her the marriage certificate. But Lisa's heart was depressed, why is your heart undervaluing your daughter just because of this?
