She Sold “Meat” Buns… But No One Knew Where the Meat Came From

Transcript

00:00A widow opened a meat bun shop, but she never used pork, at least not when a womanizing man

00:05entered her room. The next day, the man would vanish as if he had evaporated, and right then,

00:10the widow's meat buns would be ready for sale. Strangely, her buns were delicious,

00:15but she never let her daughter taste them. Since childhood, the daughter had been curious about

00:19what kind of meat her mother used in the buns. Ten years later, when she was grown up, she could no

00:24longer resist the urge to uncover the secret. She paid 100 yen and bought several buns from a

00:29customer. She took them home and began eating them eagerly, but just as she took the first bite,

00:34her mother quickly knocked them out of her hands. The girl asked what kind of meat her mother used,

00:38but her mother replied indifferently, saying she bought pork from the butcher shop next to her.

00:43However, the daughter immediately saw through the lie. She had already asked every nearby butcher,

00:49and none had ever seen her mother buy meat there. A terrifying suspicion crept into the girl's mind,

00:54but before she could say anything more, her mother interrupted her, begging her to understand that

00:58she had good intentions. It wasn't the right time to explain everything, she said. That night,

01:03the daughter couldn't sleep, disturbed by strange noises coming from the kitchen. She approached

01:07quietly, but found no one there. Just then, her mother appeared before her, holding a knife covered

01:13in blood. The girl was so frightened, she fell to the ground. Her mother immediately tried to drive

01:17her away, but just as the girl turned to leave, a basket in the corner toppled over without any reason.

01:23The girl suspected someone was inside, and rushed to check, but her mother stopped her,

01:27claiming she had misheard and should stop imagining things. But the girl was sure she had heard a man's

01:32voice. Pressured by her daughter's persistent questions, the mother made a promise. Once her

01:37daughter brought home a serious boyfriend, she would reveal the whole truth. She never imagined that the

01:42very next day, her daughter would return home with a boyfriend. However, the moment he entered,

01:47the boyfriend became visibly attracted to the widow. He swallowed hard without realizing,

01:52and the widow offered him some meat buns, again forbidding her daughter to eat them.

01:56Angered, the girl decided that this would be the day she uncovered the truth. But her mother

02:01proposed a toast to celebrate. Unaware of what was coming, the girl drank, and instantly fell into a

02:07deep sleep. Seeing this, the boyfriend kindly offered to carry her to her room. But just then,

02:12the mother-in-law's hand slowly reached out toward him.
