Episode 353:
People always have something they want.
Regardless of age or gender, the more people have, the more they want.
Dansomi.
This little child once lost everything.
Home, friends, parents, and even hometown.
In a situation where I couldn’t go back and couldn’t do anything, I gained a lot from meeting Dan Woo-hyeon and had even more.
By nature, human greed has no end.
That’s why Dansomi was greedy again today.
In front of Dansomi, a man was busy spinning a glass. Many people were betting money here and there, and soon voices of joy and sorrow could be heard everywhere.
Dan So-mi, who was looking at it, had sparkling eyes.
I gambled secretly without anyone knowing.
No one would know how much money this little child won by sneaking in among the adults.
“Hey, why don’t you just do that?” “Jo… Just a little more….”
“Then you’re saying it’s going to be a really big problem?” Hong Jinrang looked around with anxious eyes.
Winning money is good.
This is Somi’s luck, so she will never lose it. However, if you continue to take money, the gambler’s eyes will naturally follow you, and four months will naturally occur.
Moreover, this place is not Akyang. It was business.
Since this was a place beyond Hong Won-chang’s power, something serious might happen.
Hong Jinrang glanced to the side.
Ju Ji-yak was seen clinging to Dan So-mi, his eyes shining brightly. Since we were together, we didn’t lose any money, and since we were collecting money that was several times more than our pocket money, we couldn’t quit.
Hong Jinrang let out a long sigh.
“I think it would be good to just do that…”
Just because there are a lot of people, doesn’t mean you won’t get attention. If the gambler notices something strange and recognizes Dansomi, the Parakhodeul nearby will never stay still
.
Although the Parakhos wouldn’t be able to harass Somi, I felt somewhat uneasy.
“here-!”
At that time, Dan So-mi bet money on one place where the glass was placed.
At that moment, the gambler’s eyes changed strangely.
It seemed like I had collected a lot of money, but a lot of it was empty, but when I thought about it, I felt like it all went to this little child.
“Are you here, kid?”
The gambler asked, keeping an eye on Dansomi.
This was the look at which the child realized that he had taken the money. Hong Jinrang looked embarrassed, but Dan Xiaomi and Zhou Jiyue paid no attention to their gazes.
“yes! that’s right.”
“Somi, you’re here, right?”
“huh!”
The gambler smiled.
People around them also laughed with dumbfounded expressions. They were betting money as if they were convinced that the sight of children gambling was funny.
Even the place where Dansomi bet is a place where no one has bet.
“Now look. “It’s not here.”
“Is there one?”
” ok?!”
The gambler looked at the glass with a surprised expression. I definitely remembered putting it in the glass next to it, but how could the dice be there?
“Good job Somi!”
“Wow!” The two children ran around with excited expressions on their faces. Even the people around him gave dumbfounded looks, so how embarrassing must it have been for the gambler?
The corners of his mouth trembled.
“Yo… you guessed it right.”
“He’s really good at this. “My grandfather was like that and he was born this way.”
“…It’s not a compliment, Somi.”
“huh? no?” Seeing Hong Jinrang tilting his head with an innocent expression, he held his head and shook his head.
What on earth are those old people saying to a child?
None of them are normal.
“Now that’s enough, let’s go! If we continue like this, you will run and get there?”
“Ah… Ugh! Ah Okay.” Due to Hong Jin-rang’s threats, Dan So-mi eventually turned her back on the money and saved it. Joo Ji-yak also had a look of disappointment on his face, but she knew well that there was no point in trying without So-mi. As the three children slowly began to walk away, the gambler glanced at them.
Several Parakhos watched the children for a moment and then carefully followed them.
“What are you going to spend that money on?”
Ju Ji-yak asked Dan So-mi, who was walking at a brisk pace, with a puzzled expression. Of course, they earned money together, but Dansomi is strangely obsessed with money.
The last time you set up a street vendor, didn’t you take pocket money from Zhuge Un and take it with you?
“Uhm… this is it.”
Dansomi thought for a moment and then quickly turned her back. Then, he looked at Hong Jin-rang and Ju Ji-yak, who were standing behind him, and smiled brightly.
“When Somi grows up, I will save up money to go on a trip with my dad.”
“Uh… Huh?” “huh?” For a moment, the two people tilted their heads as if they had heard something they did not understand. Who is making money for whom?
“My dad doesn’t have any money… so Somi earns a lot and we go on a trip to Jungwon together.”
W……2W
“Who doesn’t have money?”
“My father.”
Dansomi tilted her head.
Then the two people were making strange expressions. The expression on his face was very strange, as if he had heard something nonsense.
“what’s the matter?”
“No… nothing.”
“Hey… Somiya, do you know who the best girl in Honam is?”
” Yes?”
In response to Hong Jin-rang’s question, Dan So-mi made an expression that did not understand the meaning. It seemed like he didn’t even know that my father was being called the best wife in the Honam region.
In fact, since she is not trying to save and spend money so persistently, it will inevitably appear as if she has no money in Dansomi’s eyes.
“So that’s why you save money like that.”
“Yeah, Somi is lucky, right? “You can use it to make a lot of money while you are still young.”
“You have self-awareness…” Dansomi smiled brightly.
This little child, who knew nothing at first, also changes his thoughts about what he has as time passes. I know something I never knew before. Dansomi finally realized that she was several times luckier than other people.
‘Even more thorough!’
From a young age, he proudly said that he would use his luck to make money, so he was indeed the child of those parents.
While I was walking for a while with that thought in mind, Hong Jinrang suddenly stopped walking.
Before they knew it, they were walking in a deserted place, and suddenly a group of men were blocking the road in front of them.
I know the face.
These are the Parakhos that were next to the gambler a little while ago.
“Listen carefully, Jinrang. Somi’s luck may be strong, but it doesn’t always work out for the better. “You need to be by my side and protect me.” Hong Jinrang frowned, recalling what Nangongcheon once told him. It certainly seemed that Somi’s luck was not always as good as the old man said.
Of course in this case.
‘I guess I should say it’s a blessing in disguise, but…’
Hong Jinrang smiled and clenched his fist.
Well, it’s like hitting a rock with an egg.
Even though Hong Jinrang knew this, he did not loosen his fists.
“Hey kids. “If you just give up what you have and go, you won’t do anything.”
Ju Ji Yak frowned at the man’s words.
Although I had thought something like this would happen, my heart ached to see them saying boring things that you would hear anywhere on the Parakho, which can be found anywhere.
When I glance to the side, I see that Dan So-mi’s expression is not much different.
In the past, Dansomi would have been a little scared, but now she was staring at the men in front of her without changing her expression.
Then he tilted his head and
opened his mouth.
“Ah, I was at the gambling place earlier…”
“It’s noisy! Shut up and leave everything you have! Otherwise, you will be scolded.”
The Parakhos raised their voices and threatened.
To be honest, I don’t like the idea of threatening such young children. However, if you are receiving money and your employer tells you to do it, you have no choice.
That’s why I wanted to end this unpleasant matter as quickly as possible.
at that time.
-Hahaha! What kind of people dare to do such shameless things in broad daylight!
Suddenly, a human voice was heard.
Soon, someone suddenly appeared.
He landed with a brilliant light as if he was flying on the wind, and suddenly looked at the sailors and swung his fist.
Puk puk!
The children flinched at the sharp sounds they heard one after another.
A violent sound erupted, like a watermelon exploding.
The large men ran away in shock, and the person who appeared out of nowhere looked at them and burst into laughter.
“Hahaha! Are you okay?”
He trudged over and bowed his head to the children.
The three children looked up at him and opened their mouths without realizing it.
Gucheok is tall.
Even if it is only eight feet long, it can be incredibly large.
Didn’t even Guan Yu, a famous military general, say that he was eight feet tall? Even if you search the central plains, there will be only a few people of that height.
However, the person in front of me was close to nine feet tall.
I have to look up to the point where my neck hurts just to see the face.
Knowing that, the man also bent down and asked.
“Uh… it’s really big.”
“Haha! This brother is a bit tall! “It won’t go away anywhere!” The man seemed very proud of his height.
Even his tall stature and massive muscles seemed enough to make any enemy feel fear.
“So, are you hurt anywhere?”
“yes! “Thank you, mister.”
“Haha, I’m a little old, but… you call me brother.”
“Yes uncle!”
Dansomi answered with a grin.
At that moment, the man frowned. “Do you hear me?”
“Hehe, yes, of course I’m listening. But you’re still an uncle.”
“…Well… right. “You’re a bolder kid than I thought.”
The man smiled with a puzzled expression. But when I looked at Dan So-mi, who was still smiling brightly, I reached out my hand without knowing that she was in a good mood.
I was just about to pat my head. Dansomi slightly averted her head.
“Only my father can touch my head.”
“Ohh? Is that so? “It seems like you like your dad very much.”
“yes! “For Somi, dad is the best.”
At that moment, the man’s expression changed mysteriously. He quietly looked at Dansomi’s face and asked while stroking her chin as if she had thought of something.
“Somi Somi, is your last name Dan?”
“yes! “It’s Dansomi.”
At that one word, the man raised his eyebrows and showed an extremely warm expression. However, strangely enough, the gaze looking at Dansomi glowed in various colors.
“I see… you? that’?”
Dansomi tilted her head in response to an inexplicable question.
