Chapter 47: Grandfather and the Amulet
I wondered for a moment if I should ask, but if I left this question unanswered, it would surely bother me for a long time. With the innocence of a child, I asked.
"What was grandpa like?"
"He was a very loving man and very hard working."
"I would love to hear about him too."
Thanks to my dad's prompting, I was able to hear the details of the story.
My grandmother, who spoke of her late husband, was not sad, but very happy.
My grandmother, who was a real rich lady, fell in love at first sight with my grandfather, who was a commoner, and after a fierce appeal, they got married.
The grandmother's father was opposed to the marriage, but they overcame his opposition and were successfully married.
To convince his father-in-law, my grandfather worked hard at his job and became a key member of a venture company, and eventually he was accepted. It is amazing that that company is now a major corporation known to everyone.
