I am The Villain’s Dad

Chapter 54:

After a tiring day, Su Yuyang was paid the days wages from the boss. As he happily went to wash his hands, the boss came over and spoke to him.

Xiao Yang, my wife came back from Yues home today and brought me a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed, saying that I should have a drink with my friends. Why dont you come home with me for dinner?

The owner of the fish stall is an honest man. His wifes family is a fisherman, and she transports the fish while he sells it in this market. Furthermore, their marriage has been very harmonious this whole while. Although selling fish did not earn them much money, they were still happy for what little they had.

However, after Su Yuyang came to work with them, his good-looks, loud voice, and skillful actions attracted many girls to buy fish. With business going so well, their future days will be comfortable, so the boss naturally wanted Su Yuyang to stay as long as possible. Even his initial feeling of dissatisfaction with Su Yuyangs demand for daily wages at the start is gone. From time to time, he would make some snacks from home and give them to Su Yuyang. He said that his wife loved to eat them, so he made more.

Okay, I also want to taste what this sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed is like.

Even after experiencing several worlds, this was Su Yuyangs first time in the ancient era. He was very curious about everything here. Not to mention, this dynasty is different from any other dynasty he knew, as the status of women is superior to men. Just, for ordinary people, the distinction between the two is not so strict. For the most part, only high-ranking officials paid special attention to these things. Moreover, to spread their branches and leaves, they would marry several houses at the same time.

On the other hand, ordinary people are mostly monogamous, like in modern times. Both men and women work to support the family, although the men do most of the household chores.

At first, he felt that the system was cheating, and it wanted him to face hardships after being thrown out of the palace as soon as he came over, with no accessibility to complete the mission objective. However, over time, he felt that there were more benefits he gained now that he was kicked out from the palace.

Firstly, the Empress was no good at all, and he was impatient to get away from such a woman.

Secondly,he was a little scared of staying in the palace as the person with the Empress favor, surrounded by a jealous harem. It wasnt that the trouble was not worth it for a woman, but those faces he would see in the harem, one by one, can choke people to death even from a long distance. He was afraid that he would not be able to restrain himself before directly killing any irritating presences with his bare hands. If he did, how would the plot be played?

His day-to-day life is quite good. When he earns money, he would use it to eat and drink, with nobody to scrutinize his every action. When he had nothing to do, he could walk around freely. Furthermore, this ancient scenery is pure, natural, and pollution-free. Although the business landscape is underdeveloped, living such a fast-paced life would be boring as well, so his current situation was optimal. Like the sunrise and sunset, his leisurely slow life gave him calm, more than he would have otherwise.

It was as if he was on a vacation.

Originally, when he first entered the mission world, didnt he just want to appreciate all kinds of scenery and do things he had never done before? He even felt that the mission of this world is not that important, even if it failed, it wouldnt be a big deal. Unfortunately, his life was now dictated by points. If he failed a mission, he wouldnt get immediately obliterated, but a corresponding number of points will be deducted. Just, once he completely runs out of points, he would be obliterated.

Could he borrow points if his value becomes negative? Who made that dead system look like dead in this world?

He is just an ordinary small task performer who cant complete the task or anything by himself. Without the help of the system, he was as useful as a salted fish! Well, just tell the system that, that silly system is not capable and only listens when flattered.

With this state of mind, Su Yuyang almost let go of himself. In addition to killing a lot of fish every day, he did his best to make the lives of the assassins trailing him miserable.

Today, he would make them lose his trail. Tomorrow, they will be soaked in the foot-washing water of the uncle next door. The day after tomorrow, they will step on the excrement of dogs.

Time passed, and their mission would never bear fruit.

Every day, Su Yuyang couldnt wait to antagonize the distressed assassins. He is fearless, and he stopped worrying about failing the mission anymore. What is it anyways to stimulate several stalkers that annoy him? Dare to follow him around? Then, they deserve to be treated as a life-scaling product. Regardless of who the master behind them is in the palace, Su Yuyang did whatever he pleased.

As for the rules he transgressed in the palace, he couldnt remember any of them. There were some ridiculous rules that the owner didnt want to abide by before, and he also didnt want to abide by them now. Over time, when he observes the original owners resentful soul, he noticed the resentment reducing slightly, with all of it almost gone now. Sure enough, all these grievances had built up over the years. He even wondered if he could do the same in the next mission.

***

When the fish stall owner invited Su Yuyang over to his place, the man was slightly anxious.

For their culture, it is an insult for nobles to go to another unrelated familys home to eat and drink so casually.

Although ordinary people like them did not care much for etiquette like the nobles, the fish stall owner thought Su Yuyang may be of noble origin. His hands, although skilled at killing fish, are also delicate and tender, and no commoner would work hard daily and still have such beautiful hands. In addition. he asked for his wages to be settled on the same day, and he asked for above average rates too. The fish stall owner was afraid that Su Yuyang was thinking of fooling around, and he would just leave if he wanted to.

Unexpectedly, the little brother agreed so easily.

He really was like what the fish stall owners wife said, although this little brother is a man, he is as free and unrestrained as a girl in his heart, and cant treat each other with common sense.

Then lets close the stall early today. I will make another fish soup in the evening. It is also very hard these days to make up for our health, the fish stall owner said as he blushed with excitement.

Since he got married, he has never had a bosom friend with whom he can have a heart to heart with. He could only work the stall every day, only briefly interacting with grocers and customers. Indeed, his wife is very kind to him, but at heart, he still misses the time when he was in the boudoir, chatting and eating freely with several good men.

Brother is planning to have a baby? Su Yuyang glanced at him and couldnt help but ask. He knew that this old man had always wanted to have a baby with his wife, but his wife has been too busy to have a baby. In the past half month, he has cooked soup every other time to make up his body, to make up for his wife, and to make up for himself, and it was early every day.

Well, my wife promised to give birth to a baby. She said that she had made some money in the past few months. If it continues like this, it will not be a problem for us to have one, the fish stall owner said as he rubbed his hands, a little embarrassed.

Congratulations! When your baby is born, I will give Brother a small silver lock. Su Yuyang was also very happy to hear of this mans joy.

Since he was on his own now, he had no need to work so hard for money. Also, he struck a pretty lucrative deal with the fish stall owner. Firstly, his salary is higher than usual. Secondly, he also receives a percentage of his sales. Thus, the more he sells, the more he will get paid.

Nowadays, after Su Yuyang grew more acquainted with the boss, he learned about the difficulties in the other partys family. Unconsciously, he wanted to sell more fish to help out this man. Furthermore, every time he noticed how the assassins faces turned dismal as they saw him brandishing his fish-killing skills, he became even more refreshed.

After mixing so many worlds, he has gained a number of skills from the system, including knife dexterity, which also doubles as self-defense if necessary. In the modern world, he could just find a police officer for help, and he didnt have a chance to show off his skills. Here, he was the only person who could work and save himself.

Dont spend so much money! Just come and eat the red eggs when the time comes.

The two of them chatted as they returned home with a smile. As they arrived at the fish stall owners place, his wife saw Su Yuyang come back with him and said a few words as she left for the bedroom and avoided going out, leaving the place to them.

Su Yuyang was fine either way, but the fish stall owner was a lot more open for conversation with just male company, and was busy in the kitchen humming a little song. Soon, with several homemade snacks on the table, the two of them were drinking the night away with wine as they talked under the moon.

It was not until the middle of the moon that Su Yuyang staggered back to the inn.

The sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed he had earlier was delicious and tight, but it doesnt feel anything at the beginning. Only when the cold nightly breeze blew against his skin did the heat come up, making Su Yuyangs face warm.

In truth, the original owners alcohol capacity was pretty decent, but every time he drank wine, his face would turn bright red as his head burned, making people think that he was susceptible to alcohol.

Needless to say, Su Yuyangs drinking capacity was much higher, and with just this little wine, it wouldnt affect him at all. Nonetheless, even if he didnt think he had a problem, it doesnt mean that others would think the same.

Mingyue looked at Su Yuyang, who was drunk as he walked right up in front of her, whose face was about to turn into a ripe peach. Looking at him living so carelessly, she was so angry that she wanted to drag him and soak him through with cold water to sober him up.

She stayed up all night and rushed over into the city to see how badly he might be faring and then personally persuade him not to do such inferior things. No matter what, he was also the rejected ex-husband of the Empress, and he was not just any other abandoned husband. There was no need for him to make a living alone.

As it turned out, she was worried for nothing. What bad life? He was out drinking and dreaming She wanted to be as happy and have fun too!

With how things stood, there was no one available around her, and she had to work tirelessly for her country. In the day, she was still to be resented by him and her daughter. Did anyone realize how tough her life was?

Your Majesty even showed up personally Im sorry for not preparing a warm welcome, Im sorry.

Su Yuyang saw the appearance of the visitor from a distance, and bowed and he spoke. The sarcasm in his tone was so obvious that Ming Yue couldnt even ignore it if she wanted to.

Heh~~ You better really feel guilty.

Oh, but of course. The villagers have lost their senses. Please help yourself, Your Majesty.

Su Yuyang didnt bother to take care of this scum girl. It was obvious that she had failed the original owner, bullied him, and also let her two daughters get hurt. Indeed, she is the Empress, and she had her fair share of difficulties, but as a mother and a wife, she was simply not qualified.

If she valued power so much, why did she bring the original owner back and made an appearance of deep love for the original owner, causing all the spears of the harem to be directed at the original owner and leaving him defenseless? She even blames the original owner for not having the ability to defend himself when he was schemed upon.

She knew this man did not belong to the palace, did not understand how sinister it was, and that he just wanted to see the woman he had thought about every day.

If it wasnt possible for her to protect him, she should have let the original owner go. The original owner didnt make such a request to stay in the palace in the first place. Unfortunately, for her own sake, she insisted on keeping the original owner, which has now led to such a tragedy.

Yet, she still felt that she was right, and the original owner was in the wrong.
