As he reached out to the elevator button, recalling the forgotten pharmacy, the words the old man had said suddenly came to mind.
“It’s made in the largest glass bottle, so there should be enough left to burn for a while.”
The largest glass bottle.
What could that be?
Despite the incomprehensible words, In Ho turned around as if he was bewitched.
The place he headed straight to was the bedroom of his newlywed house.
((())) ((())) ((()))
“Mother, how about that one?”
Su Yeon pointed to a bag on display and asked cautiously.
The answer did not come easily.
When she glanced at Young Sun, she saw an ambiguous expression on her face.
The bag was the last thing on her mind, she seemed to be pondering how to react to the current situation.
“… Well, it’s pretty.”
A reluctant answer slipped out.
For a moment, Su Yeon flinched.
It wasn’t a refreshing nuance, but the mere fact that she had responded was surprising and she felt flustered.
When was the last time she had responded to her?
Although it wasn’t as warm as before, she was so very happy just to hear her voice.
“Mother, the bag over there seems nice too. Why don’t you try holding it? It might feel different than just looking at it.”
Su Yeon spoke to Young Sun with a slightly more assertive attitude.
Just hearing one answer made her smile spread across her face.
Was that all? She felt strangely courageous.
Maybe she could have a few more words with Young Sun before they parted.
Her heart was inflated with anticipation.
She felt like she was seeing hope for an improvement in her relationship with Young Sun, which seemed impossible.
So, Su Yeon felt motivated.
She felt like she could do anything.
If Young Sun would open her heart even a little with this opportunity, she was confident that she would do anything to become a beloved daughterinlaw again.
“What do you think, Mother?”
Su Yeon urged Young Sun gently.
Young Sun, who seemed full of hesitation, moved as if she were led by Su Yeon’s push.
Perhaps Young Sun didn’t know.
She didn’t know how much her small act made Su Yeon’s heart flutter.
Su Yeon held Young Sun’s arm a bit more tightly in her excited, fluttering state.
Still, Young Sun didn’t shake her hand off.
Just that alone made her feel as if today would be the day she dreamed of.
A day when she could shop happily with her motherinlaw using the card given by her husband and when she came home late, her husband who came first would greet her pleasantly.
Being able to have dinner together and finish the day…
The day that seemed extravagant even to dream about, it seemed like she could finally achieve it today.
That thought kept making Su Yeon flutter.
At least until the not so pleasant voice of someone came into her ears.
“Oh, motherinlaw?”
At the sudden voice, Su Yeon felt her body stiffen.
Su Yeon reacted first, but it was Young Sun who found the owner of the voice.
“Ah. Hello.”
Young Sun returned the greeting with a nervous face.
Su Yeon thought she could guess what Young Sun was feeling just by hearing her voice.
But the other person seemed unaware.
The voice that came again was full of a joyful tone without any awareness.
“Have you been well? I never expected to see you here. Oh, did you come shopping with Su Yeon?”
Su Yeon slowly turned her body. She then stared hard at the mother and daughter standing across from her.
“……Hello, how have you been.”
Struggling to force out a voice that didn’t want to emerge, she bowed her head.
She felt a searing gaze on the top of her head even before she lifted it.
The gaze had no reason to be awkward, yet the sarcastic emotion she faced after a long time hurt particularly today.
“Looks like the wife of my husband’s sibling is out shopping with her daughterinlaw.”
“Yes. Our daughter ranked first in the department this time. She always does everything halfheartedly, so we told her to relax once she graduates from school and goes abroad. But she is stubborn and wants to repay her parents in this way. In the end, my husband and I gave in and let her do what she wanted, and oh my, she ranked first in her department, didn’t she?”
“Ah, yes.”
“We were so proud that we wanted to give her anything, so we came out to shop.”
Hyekyung’s mouth did not stop bragging about Su Jin.
Su Yeon stared at her feet, her mouth pulled up bitterly.
It was something she had hoped for all her life.
She had always hoped that her own boasting would pour out of Hyekyung’s mouth just like now.
In order to do so, she topped every test she took in her life, practiced more restraint than necessary to be a better person than anyone else, obeyed her without showing her dislike if Hyekyung wanted something, and even got married.
But everything she did was just a matter of course for Hyekyung.
Hyekyung’s values were that if she had raised an orphan abandoned by her parents, she had to repay her.
Hyekyung had been raising two daughters for 25 years, but except for the three years before Su Jin was born, she had lived her entire life as Su Jin’s mother.
She had no complaints about it.
Choi Su Yeon was just a child she had raised, and Choi Su Jin was a child she had given birth to in pain, so they could not be the same daughters.
Moreover, Su Jin was a precious child who had come to a couple diagnosed with infertility.
So she must have been so beautiful.
She could understand.
She had understood hundreds, thousands of times in her head and endured and lived until now.
But, no matter what.
No matter how much Su Jin was a child who would not get hurt even if she put her in her eyes.
No matter how she lived her entire life as Su Jin’s mother, still.
“Su Yeon, how have you been? You’ve been treating your inlaws well, right?”
Still, how can she do this when she’s raised me?
“It seems you’re doing well, considering you’ve come this far with your motherinlaw. I’m relieved.”
Su Yeon lifted her gaze, which had been fixed on her toes, at the sound of Hyekyung’s voice, full of pretense.

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
