"Me? Where would I get that kind of money? He said an ‘acquaintance’ gave it to him." Despite what she told Jang Seung-woo, Madam Kim was actually quite wealthy. The Jang family allowed their servants to own property and, true to their prestigious name, paid them far more than the average wage. Even when she worked for Park Daegam’s household—Park Eun-soo’s family—she never lacked anything. But it was at the Jang estate that she truly amassed wealth. With little to spend it on, her…-

Growing up in a wealthy household surrounded by only the finest things, Hongwoo had developed a keen eye for quality. When shopping for bedding, he spared no expense, choosing a luxurious pair of silk brocade pillows filled with cotton, designed to melt away fatigue the moment he lay on them. They’re traditionally used by married couples, but Hongwoo figured bedding should always be big and comfortable. Besides, now that he was independent, he would marry someday. Better to buy it now than replace it…-

Dream of the Red Chamber was the book Hongwoo’s parents used to read to him before bed. However, they were more interested in flirting with each other than making sure he actually fell asleep. They giggled as they imitated the protagonists, their storytelling often drifting into tales of their own romance. Having heard their love story countless times, Hongwoo quickly grew bored and dozed off. Once he was asleep, his parents continued reading together, savoring their quiet time. "Hongwoo, just two…-

The ‘market hyung’ tapped his abacus, quickly calculating the amount Hongwoo would need. Soaked from the rain and water pooling at his feet, Hongwoo had no idea how much it would cost, but he nodded anyway. "And for building the house? Want me to handle that too?" Back when Hongwoo first settled in the market, he had already noticed how capable his ‘market hyung’ was. If anyone could take care of it, it was him. Trusting his judgment, Hongwoo nodded again. Seeing this, the ‘market…-

“The best pairing for dongchimi (Korean water-based kimchi) is sweet potatoes. But don’t eat too much—it’s cold, and you’ll upset your stomach.” “Alright, I got it. I’m really leaving now. Go inside, Madam Kim. If my older brother sees you, he might scold you, so I’ll hurry.” ‘He’s going to trip, running like that.’ Madam Kim watched Hongwoo dash off, shaking her head. She was proud of him for trying to earn his own money, but the thought of him sitting alone in an empty…-

Hongwoo treated himself to a hearty bowl of soup, some boiled pork, and, of course, a drink to mark the occasion. Just thinking about the meal ahead lifted his spirits. "Enjoy your meal." As the dishes were set before him, Hongwoo picked up his spoon. He stacked a slice of boiled pork, a piece of kimchi, and another slice of pork before taking a big bite, washing it down with a sip of makgeolli (traditional Korean rice wine). Next, he scooped up a generous spoonful of gukbap (rice served in a hot…-

Sitting around in despair wouldn’t change anything. Hongwoo had to keep moving. At this hour, there was only one place Madam Kim would be. Sure enough, she was in the yard, hanging freshly washed clothes. “Madam Kim—” “Oh, Young Master Hongwoo. Acting like a child again? What is it? What do you need now?” Without a word, Hongwoo clung to her back—just as he used to when he was little. Even as he grew older, he would sometimes do this when he wanted something. “Do you know…-

The head chef’s roar jolted Hongwoo into action. With a fierce expression, she tossed him a work apron. Hongwoo hesitated, unsure how to put it on, until one of the women—who had been working seamlessly with the others—stepped forward and helped him tie it. "No one lasts more than three days here." She whispered ominously as she fastened the strings behind his back. "I’ve been the youngest for seven years now." A chill ran down Hongwoo’s spine. It felt like locking eyes with a tiger—cold…-

“Are you really that sick?” Hongwoo stayed silent, only nodding in response. If he spoke too lively, all his efforts would be for nothing. “You shouldn’t be sick.” The unexpected gentleness in Jang Seungwoo’s voice startled Hongwoo. Who would have thought his older brother could sound so kind? Determined not to show his surprise, he kept his expression neutral. Seungwoo stood, took Hongwoo’s wrist, and led him toward the reception table. He moved the vase from the center and…-
