447 [Episode.0] Ginette-Fate smiled that day-



"Hello, hello,"
"Oh, Mr. Estella,"

 in the evening
 Mr. Estella came to me while I was repairing the chairs in the audience because they were rattling.
 I brush my hands covered with wood powder and greet them.

"Hello. Are you having dinner?"
"Yes. I think I'll have stir-fried crap vegetables and some black bread, too, uh, have a big pocket today."
"Yes, I'll get ready now."

 When I was about to head to the kitchen, Estella stopped me saying, "Oh, wait a minute."

"Actually, I've been fishing in the sea with an acquaintance of mine from the Sea Fishing Guild. So, this. Share your money."
"Wow! Is it a sea fish?"

 In the box Mr. Estella brought, there was a fish soaked in seawater.
 Along with the fish, there is seawater ice that is said to have been prepared by the sea fishing guild.
 When I dipped my fingers, I was surprised that it was cool and cold.

"It's amazing, ice."
"There's a big ice chamber on board." They keep drift ice there. It's amazing that you can get as much as you want even if you lose it."

 There are always places in the wide ocean that are cold enough to take ice.
 It's amazing. I can't imagine it.

"Didn't Jeanette ever see the sea?"
"Yes. Is it far from here?"
"Well... it's rather soon after you get out of the street gate."
"Really? I want to see the ocean someday."
"Well, may I join you then?"
"Of course. It would be fun to go anywhere with Estella."
"Hehe, thank you. I'll have fun with Jeanette."

 Mr. Estella smiles and smiles beautifully.
 You're such a wonderful friend that it's too good for me.
 I'm sorry I've always had it.
 ...yes. Let's have a little more stir‐fried vegetables today.
 Also, let's use lots of proper vegetables instead of waste ones.

 Anyway, even if you leave it there, it will only ruin it.

"I'll make it right away, so please wait for me."
"Well, then, I think I'll use the chair that I've been mending up until now.
"I hope it's all right."

 I can't help but be bad at carpenters on Sundays.
 My grandfather thought Sunday carpenters were easy because he could fix anything well.
 I can't believe it was this difficult.

 Oh, my grandfather. If you'd told me beforehand, I'd have been taught properly...

 I sincerely feel that I am dissatisfied, but I am deeply reflecting on my negligence.
 I think I will be able to practice well by the time I reach the same age as my grandfather.

"What a beautiful sea fish! "Is it trevally?"

 There aren't many sea fish in the 42 wards.
 Thanks to my grandfather, I used to watch it relatively often, and I used to eat it quite often when my grandfather was there.
 "The sea fish that my grandfather cooked happily, saying, ""It's a treat tonight,"" was really delicious, and I was absorbed in eating it."
 My grandfather said he liked river fish better, but I like sea fish better.
 The trevally is especially delicious.

 Are there any better seafood than this?
 "A while ago, Estella said, ""The sea is bigger than I imagined."""
 "If it's that big, there might be some seafood that tastes better than horse mackerel."

"I want to see the sea,"

 It's impossible for me to prepare an introductory tax.

 "For a moment, I thought I would eat it with Estella because it was a great sea fish, but let's keep it."
 There may be customers who want to eat sea fish after this.

 "If you know that there are sea fish, you may like the Yangdaljeong and come back tomorrow."
 "However, this is the only time I can serve sea fish, so I can't meet your expectations."

 But let's keep it.
 It seems that the blood is well drained and pretreated, so it will last for a couple of days.

 I'm a little sorry to Estella, but I'll make delicious stir-fried vegetables for that.
 I washed my hands and worked hard to make stir‐fried vegetables.


 In the corner of the kitchen where I wielded the frying pan, piles of vegetables were piled up, which had been slowly beginning to deteriorate over time.




 The sun went down and I sat on the chair that I had repaired today.

"...it's rattling."

 It's strange.
 I should have cut them all in the same length.

"But it's better than before, isn't it?

 Mr. Estella also told me that it has become more stable than before.
 Yes. Let's think of it as a step forward.
 Let's try to repair another chair tomorrow.

"...is it closed now?"

 There's no one in the store.
 I was thinking about using a lantern, but there were no customers, so I saved money and turned it into a candle today.
 This is a homemade candle that my grandfather made for me. My grandfather made a lot of lantern oil for me because it lasts longer than lanthanum oil.

 It'll be dimmer than a lantern, but well, it'll be all right.


"...you're not here, sir,"


 Hold your fist tight and wait for a sinking feeling.
 I'll look up with a firm face.

 I can't do it's not working.
 If you look down, you'll lose sight of tomorrow.
 We can't take our eyes off the future because we don't know what will happen.

 The Sister told me that hard times are the best time to look forward.
 I'm sure it's time."Let's get the vegetables ready." And the preparation for tomorrow's donation."

 I muttered on the empty floor, but there was no answer.

 I'm used to it.
 I'm used to it.

 ... I'm used to it, grandfather.

"...I can't,"

 I have a cramp in my mouth.
 Customers may find this distorted smile unpleasant.
 I've got to laugh properly.

"Good! Let's cook."

 You enter the kitchen and face the pile of vegetables.
 This is not a cheap waste vegetable, but an ordinary vegetable at a reasonable price.
 However, it's damaged here and there, and it's going to become a waste vegetable.

 However, if you remove the damaged area, you can still enjoy eating it.

"...however, it's a large."

 It's hard to use up this much.
 But if you don't use it, all of these vegetables will be ruined.

"Let's make a donation tomorrow with soup full of vegetables."

 Will the children be happy?
 Would you be able to eat a lot of vegetables and say, "Oh my gosh!" and "Oh my gosh!" and look at the colorful vegetables and say, "Cute!"

"...I want to see everyone's faces soon."

 Every time the wind blows, the poorly built door creaks.
 The wooden frames of the windows rattle.
 Even though I'm alone, there's still a lot of noise in the nighttime Yodamari-tei.

"Is there any one... who can help me?"

 I like cooking, but I don't think it's suitable for management.
 Actually, there are a lot of things I want to try.
 Whether you want to make tables and chairs a space where guests can relax, or to increase the menu, or to hire a waiter to work together in a fun and noisy way...

 But while my way of doing it would be less money...

"Your grandfather's savings have gone down a lot, haven't they?"

 My grandfather cut me short and saved me a lot of money in my less affluent life.
 Now I'm cutting down the savings and continuing to stay at the Yodamari-tei.

 I have no income.
 It's always in the red, and my grandfather's savings wear away every month.

 Stop chopping carrots and look at the wall cupboard where the books and important documents are kept.
 When you remove two steps of drawers, there is a small hidden door behind them, which contains a cloth bag.


"If you marry one day, use it."


 My grandfather saved me money for my marriage.
 Hmm... I'm Alvistan. I can't believe it's a marriage...

"Do you mind if I use this, grandfather?"

 Close your eyelids and you'll see your grandfather smiling gently.
 The smile that was always kind and enveloped me still looks at me.

"I've been staying in the Yangtari-tei without getting married. So... right, grandfather?"

 Please hold a cloth bag containing some silver coins to your chest and express your gratitude and apologies to your grandfather.



 Yodamari-tei is all about me.



 Just a little more selfishness, please.
 I don't know how far I can go by myself, but...
 I don't have the money to hire anyone...
 Please leave this place to me a little more, grandfather.

 When I was holding the cloth bag, tears flowed out of my eyes.

 ...what!?
 Don't do it.
 No matter how much you close the store, you have to be a professional while you're in the kitchen.

 I wiped my tears, patted my cheeks, and cheered myself up.
 Put the cloth bag back into the hidden door, put the drawer back in place, and go back to stocking vegetables.

 I practiced smiling while cutting vegetables.
 To make sure you can laugh properly when the guests come.
 Keep the pain out of your face.

I want you to think, "Wow, that's cute."

 ...huh.
 I've never had anyone tell me that.
 The only people who told me were my grandfather, my sister, and my dormitory mother. My family are all indulgent.



 Then I felt the door creaked.



 Come to think of it, did you close the shop properly?
 Well, it's okay to check the lock before going to bed.
 It's already time.

 Rather than that, since you've prepared with a little bit of pain, let's have fun from here on out.
 Don't let the food taste sad.

 Oh, come to think of it, that horse mackerel looks delicious.
 Shall we eat more alone?

"'This is Jeanette,' The clerk eats more than the customer, so what are you going to do?"...huff. I'm sorry, grandfather. ...huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh."

 It was when I was playing alone like that.


"Is there no one?"


 A man's voice came from the floor.
 It's a customer!

 I hurried out to the floor and met him.



 To me and the person of fate who will make a big difference in the Yangtari-tei.



 As soon as I met him, he said a word that gave me confidence that I was losing confidence.



"Piots Cayday!"



 I'll never forget that word for the rest of my life.
