Bitter Tongue In-Law
5. Workup

Ish. Why is he so angry?"

Nuna immediately walked towards the mini kitchen which seemed to be specially made drinks only. The bag and the fruit-filled crackle were still in his hands.

"You can put your stuff in there." The man pointed at the small cupboard in the corner of the room with his chin.

"Tell me what to do." Nuna asked after putting the bag and the fruit in the corner of the closet that had been appointed by the man earlier.

The man then explained what his duties were actually quite easy. Because the drinks available in the tavern were not much and everyone could make them without a special recipe. It was evident from Nuna who quickly understood and practiced what was described earlier.

Nuna has been busy since she entered the kitchen. Until past lunchtime, the woman could only sit on the kitchen floor by leaning against the wall. Doing light housework alone he was quite exhausted. Plus he now has to serve the people and walking to and fro is really draining his energy. This is only half a day he works, he hopes the content will continue to be strong until he is ready to give birth.

"You helped me, yeah. You have to be strong in your stomach. Mom works for you, for Mom too. Let if you want something, you can buy without having to wait," murmured Nuna while stroking her flat stomach at the age of almost three months.

"You hungry?" asked the man when he caught Nuna stroking her stomach.

Nuna just nodded slowly.

"Yes eat there. Want any side dish is up to just choose the one in front. Your meal here is only twice a day, working hours from eight in the morning to three in the afternoon. If before three o'clock the food is up, yes it can go home," the man explained as he carried the plate to the sink.

"Your job is here to make drinks and take them to the table. Just like earlier. And other tasks, you wash dishes and glasses. Clean the store before the store opens and before closing. For today I do this dirty dish and glass. Tomorrow you do. The feeding!"

The man spoke at length while washing the dishes. Explain the entire task of Nuna without pause and without looking at the woman who is now accidentally asleep in a sitting position. Not hearing the voice from Nuna made the man stop from his activities and turn his head back.

Looking at Nuna who was asleep, he slammed his sponge into the sink and washed his hands and splashed the water that soaked his hands into Nuna's face.

Nuna was slightly surprised from her seat when she found the man standing with a waistline. The woman reflexively stood up while twisting the tip of her shirt.

My God, am I gonna get fired before I even get a paycheck?

"I've already explained the details of what you should be working on while here. You asleep? You didn't hear what I said?"

"Listen. I heard it vaguely I heard what you said. I didn't sleep for real. I just closed my eyes."

"Then repeat what I said!"

Nuna hesitantly and slightly stammered repeating the words that had entered her ear earlier. Although very faint he heard and not sure the answer was true, he still said it.

Nuna breathed a sigh of relief after getting a nod from the man. He works in a modest tavern, but feels like he works in the biggest company in the world.

Nuna simply nodded and walked forward. He took a little more rice and side dishes.

"This food is for sale, why can I take food here? You're not afraid of loss?" Nuna asked while watching the side dish she wanted. From the look of the side dishes lined up in this storefront is very appetizing, but either his stomach can accept or not.

"What if you don't eat in the storefront? I don't bring any more food than myself. I'll bring you another meal tomorrow. It's even better if you bring your own food. By the way, what's your name?"

"Miss."

"I'm Bian." The man sat on the floor a little away from Nuna.

"How do I call you? You mean should I call you sir?"

"Did I look that old until you called me sir?"

"I'm just asking, why are you always angry? Control your emotions. Poor woman who will be your wife later. Eat your heart every day if you just ask me you're angry."

Bian just glanced towards Nuna. And just as he expected, the woman instantly fell silent and continued eating.

Finish with a delayed lunch. They returned to serve the customers, the food that stayed a little make not many people who sit in the store. Nuna was a little more relaxed than before.

In his spare time, he sat quietly in the pantry with half a daydream. She was worried about being honest or not with her husband. He was afraid that if he had permission, he would not get the blessing to work, but if he secretly worked, he would have long ago been discovered as well and it would definitely cause new and big problems.

Nuna exhaled heavily and deeply as Bian passed by. He passed by Nuna with a tray of dirty dishes and glasses.

"I'm looking for employees to help with my work. I hire employees to work. Not to sit quietly daydreaming indistinctly. Just go home if you don't intend to work!"

Nuna momentarily flutter. Somehow the nagging from Bian made her more afraid than her mother-in-law's nagging. Maybe because he needed more money, it made him afraid of losing his job so soon.

"I'm sorry, why don't you just tell me. Tell me if I have anything to do. I'd rather be that than hear you get angry." Nuna snatches the sponge from Bian's hand and starts washing dishes.

"I don't like to explain what I want to other people. I tell them by action. From now on understand what I'm doing, then work on it." Bian turned his body about to go forward.

"But I'm not an angel who always understands what you mean. Wouldn't you talk better?"

The words from Nuna made Bian's steps stop on the spot and his hand slammed against the table beside him. It made Nuna swallow in fear.

"One more time you fight me, I make sure you're last here today."
