Chapter 65 : Request
"Ye-rin, this mother has returned!"
Rumble.
The Young Palace Head's Hall shook.
"......."
Seol Ye-rin was startled by the sound coming from outside.
It was a situation where she was transferring Extre Yin Qi to Cheon Deung-jin through their clasped hands.
She worried that Cheon Deung-jin's true qi might have been shaken.
'It was a groundless fear.'
She did not freeze.
Although she seed to be feeling a bit of a cold sensation, Cheon Deung-jin looked fine.
"This... what sound is this?"
Perhaps having already finished circulating qi, Cheon Deung-jin opened her mouth.
"This voice... it seems my mother has returned."
"If it is your mother... would it be the Ice Queen?"
"Yes, that's right. But weren't we supposed to be friends now? You should speak comfortably too!"
"...Will that really be okay?"
"Of course."
"Ye-riiiiiin!"
Woong-
The Lion's Roar rang through the Young Palace Head's Hall again.
"...She really hasn't changed one bit. I think we need to go out quickly."
"I agree."
Seol Ye-rin took Cheon Deung-jin and ca out of the Young Palace Head's Hall.
Halt-
When she ca out, it wasn't just her mother Hong Ye-hwa who was there.
Including her father, General Manager Seol Su-hyeok.
Furthermore, Hyeokryeon Yeom and the Small Snow Squad.
Everyone related to Seol Ye-rin was gathered.
"Oh my, it's been a while. Ye-rin. Is it because you exactly resemble this mother that you are dazzling?"
"...Mother yourself, it feels as if aging has stopped. Did you perhaps rejuvenate?"
There were bones in her words.
"Hello, I am the Young Palace Head of the Potala Palace, Cheon Deung-jin."
Cheon Deung-jin, who was hurriedly bowing, was startled upon seeing Seol Ye-rin's mom, the Ice Queen, Hong Ye-hwa.
"...No, Elder Hong? The Elder was the Ice Queen?"
"It's been a while, Young Palace Head Cheon."
Seol Ye-rin looked alternately at Cheon Deung-jin and Hong Ye-hwa.
"...While your daughter was hovering between life and death, it seems you were acting as an Elder at the Potala Palace."
"Are you angry?"
"...? No way."
It was an appearance that looked angry to anyone.
"...How did you co back suddenly?"
"I ca after hearing the news. My daughter is getting engaged, so her mom can't just stay still, can she?"
"...Since when were you that interested in ?"
"Seol Ye-rin."
Flinch-
When her na was called, Seol Ye-rin flinched.
"You've been talking back a lot since earlier?"
The mont a chilly energy began to flow out from the Ice Queen's whole body,
Slide-
Hyeokryeon Yeom stood between the two people.
"I am also curious about the relationship between the Young Palace Head Cheon and the Ice Queen."
At that appearance, a strange light flowed in Hong Ye-hwa's eyes.
Seol Ye-rin was looking exactly at Hyeokryeon Yeom's back.
The cold energy flowing out from Hong Ye-hwa was completely blocked.
"No, Wife. I'm telling you that you shouldn't do that to Ye-rin right now......."
"Darling, why do you keep saying I shouldn't since earlier? A child who hasn't even held a wedding ceremony couldn't have conceived a child. What is the problem?"
At Hong Ye-hwa's single remark, silence flowed in the surroundings.
"......What? Is it true?"
Hyeokryeon Yeom carefully looked back.
Seol Ye-rin sighed and opened her mouth.
"No."
"What?"
"What?"
"I said I'm not pregnant."
"T, then the retching was......."
"I think it was because not much ti had passed since eating the elixir."
"Then that quack doctor really......."
Watching her father grab the back of his neck, Seol Ye-rin shook her head from side to side.
It was then.
"Son-in-law."
"Yes. Mother-in-law."
"Oh, I really like that title. You must have at least two children, okay?"
"......I will try."
"Why are you trying that, Gaga?!"
"Gaga?"
Once again, the title Gaga popped out of Seol Ye-rin's mouth.
***
"......."
Eventually, everyone entered the Young Palace Head's Hall amicably together.
Seol Ye-rin and Hyeokryeon Yeom sat side by side.
In front of them, Seol Baek-ho and Hong Ye-hwa sat, and in the seats of honor, Cheon Deung-jin and Seol Su-hyeok sat separately.
'This is the first ti for sothing like this.'
A sohow uncomfortable feeling began to creep up.
There are one or two things to pay attention to.
First, Seol Ye-rin.
Not only has it not been long since the engagent ceremony was held, but due to people misunderstanding that she was pregnant because of one retch, she had holed up in her room and just ca out.
Looking at the atmosphere, her mood seems to have improved a lot.
'How did she beco close with Lady Cheon?'
"Jin, what do you want to eat?"
She was calling Cheon Deung-jin, who was sitting on Seol Ye-rin's right, intimately.
Anyway, it is fortunate that the two beca close.
Looking at it, perhaps she had already put Extre Yin Qi into Cheon Deung-jin, Cheon Deung-jin's face was overflowing with vitality.
Therefore, it seed I could pay less attention to Cheon Deung-jin.
Next.
Father-in-law.
He is reading Mother-in-law's countenance consistently.
Just looking at this, I could confirm who was higher in rank among these family mbers.
An appearance completely different from Father-in-law's usual appearance.
Anyway, since Father-in-law is also busy reading the room, it seed I didn't really need to pay attention to him either.
Next is naturally Mother-in-law.
Since today is the first eting, I am thinking it would be comfortable in the future if I leave a good impression.
"What does Son-in-law want to eat?"
"...I eat anything well."
"Really? Then how about ordering anything quickly?"
"...I can't ask for just anything."
"Can you eat spicy things well?"
"Yes."
"Then let's go with Sichuan cuisine."
"I think that's good. Chef!"
After deciding what to eat, I called the chef.
"Hmm?"
Tae Un-seo popped out.
I forgot this was the Young Palace Head's Hall.
"Whatever dish it is, I will do my best......."
"Just for today! Just for today, leave it to Wi Ji-yeong."
"Yes, Captain. I will assist."
Anyway, Tae Un-seo, who received orders for the food each person wanted to eat, went back.
I was about to turn my gaze toward Mother-in-law again,
"Whew."
"You are going through a lot of trouble, Prospective Son-in-law."
Seol Su-hyeok referred to as a prospective Son-in-law.
"...Why are you suddenly doing this, General Manager?"
"Since the engagent ceremony has ended, you may now call Uncle."
"I will call you that after the wedding."
In a way, it sounded like he ant for us to get along like family.
But I didn't want to pay attention to anyone else here.
After defending against Seol Su-hyeok sharply, I observed Mother-in-law again,
"So it happened like that."
"Ah......."
"So it was a relationship ford like that."
"It makes sense that Jin followed Mother."
It seed they had already finished talking about what relationship Cheon Deung-jin and Mother-in-law had.
...I felt like going crazy out of curiosity.
***
'He is an interesting son-in-law.'
Just as each person has soone they pay attention to.
The Ice Queen, Hong Ye-hwa, was paying the most attention to Hyeokryeon Yeom.
There was only one reason.
'A woman's fate unfolds comfortably only if she ets a man well.'
She heard the whole story.
As Hyeokryeon Yeom, who was an Extre Yang Body, entered as a live-in son-in-law, he connected with Seol Ye-rin.
And thanks to that, the story is that he cured the Extre Yin Body as well.
The possibility that the two would develop into a relationship that complents each other while being opposites seed very large.
'It seems she t a man well.'
Appearance: Pass.
Origin: Demonic Cult, Confird.
Strength: Looks strong, Confird.
Money: Doesn't matter if it's a lot or little, why? Because I have a lot.
Now what remains is,
'The person's character.'
In other words, personality and nature.
This part needed to be checked once more.
As she thought repeatedly, her throat felt dry.
"Here it is."
But,
"How did you know I was looking for water?"
"You looked thirsty."
He is quick-witted too.
"Food is served!"
While the elents she liked were increasing, the dishes ca out.
It was a dish called Twice Cooked Pork, a specialty of Sichuan.
Slice- Slice-
Isn't he slicing it piece by piece and placing it on Seol Ye-rin and Hong Ye-hwa's plates?
Eventually, Hong Ye-hwa had no choice but to judge Hyeokryeon Yeom as the best groom material.
The mont she thought she had to set the wedding date before losing him,
Knock knock knock.
"Co on in."
The Divine Physician, Seong I-han, ca inside.
"Excuse ."
Flinch, Seong I-han was surprised to see the faces gathered in the room.
It is because he didn't know Hong Ye-hwa would be there.
"Your face skin is thick too, how much more are you here to extract from the Ice Palace?"
"Wife. Have the Divine Physician take her pulse again. I need to check again if his dical skills are really correct."
"Yes."
The unhelpful husband brought the Divine Physician in.
"You are saying you will have him take her pulse while eating?"
"Wouldn't it be accurate if he takes the pulse when she is healthiest?"
The Divine Physician held Seol Ye-rin's pulse and began the diagnosis.
She looked at the Divine Physician without any expectation or worry.
"My mind and body seem stable. It seems the effect of the elixir was certainly good."
Hong Ye-hwa reacted to the word elixir.
"Elixir? What did you feed her?"
"I fed her the Black Yin Ten Thousand Year Herb."
"She nourished her body well. But that must have been hard to obtain."
"Here it is. They say the effect is good for beauty too."
Hyeokryeon Yeom took out a Black Yin Ten Thousand Year Herb from his bosom and handed it to Hong Ye-hwa.
He casually takes out an elixir that cannot be bought even with ten thousand gold.
There was nothing more to judge.
"Son-in-law, have a drink too!"
Along with the Sichuan cuisine, liquor called Jade Pot Spring was brought out.
Hyeokryeon Yeom wondered where such liquor ca from frequently, but they said they received it as an engagent ceremony gift.
It was unexpected that the Palace Head was running the Ice Palace well, more than thought.
As the day Seol Ye-rin would die approached day by day, Seol Baek-ho, who fell into despair, tried to devise thods in various ways but only failed repeatedly.
Taking advantage of that gap, pressure ca in from the Council of Elders.
Thinking she would lose both her husband and daughter at this rate, she left the Ice Palace.
For Hong Ye-hwa herself to save her daughter and save her husband.
It wasn't easy.
Although she wandered around the Outer Regions here and there and was anxious, the results were not good.
She couldn't return to the North Sea Ice Palace because she felt sorry for her daughter and didn't have the face to see the Palace Head.
She heard the news.
Seol Ye-rin recovered and is scheduled to hold an engagent ceremony.
So she returned.
'It was all because of the Son-in-law.'
Saving Ye-rin.
And being able to sit together and eat as a family like this.
"Is there sothing on my face?"
As she stared at Hyeokryeon Yeom piercingly, Hyeokryeon Yeom asked carefully.
"No, I an the more I see you, the more I like you."
Seol Ye-rin reacted to that single remark.
"Mother. Let's eat."
"Then, I will take my leave......."
As the Divine Physician, who was standing awkwardly, tried to take the opportunity to go outside,
"Does the granddaughter in Namman also know that you are here?"
Flinch.
At the word granddaughter, everyone's gazes headed toward the Divine Physician.
The Divine Physician, who was conflicted for a mont, clasped his hands toward Hyeokryeon Yeom.
"Young Hero, it is shaless, but I ask this of you. By any chance, could you... stop by Namman once?"
At the Divine Physician's sudden request, everyone's gazes headed toward Hyeokryeon Yeom.
"...Namman is quite a distance away."
"Why, you held the engagent ceremony too. How about going on a trip with Ye-rin once?"
At Hong Ye-hwa's suggestion, Hyeokryeon Yeom made a troubled expression.
