Bigshot Wants To Return Home And Retire

The top boss in the capital, Master Lou, suddenly found his thighs hugged by a baby with pigtails. He even cried and called him daddy. Master Lou, "Who are you?" The baby, "I'm your son!" Master Lou, "????" The baby swindled Master Lou into going to the countryside to look for his mother. Song Wei recognized the man's face and immediately closed the door in his face. "Sorry, you've found the wrong person. His mother is next door." Master Lou held her hand as she was about to close the door and gave her a meaningful smile. "Woman, how have you been?" Later on… the news of Master Lou fetching his wife back from the countryside and having a child spread like a wildfire in the capital. The capital's socialites cried, "How can a village woman be worthy of our Master Lou?" Song Wei said, "You guys are right!" The baby was dissatisfied. "My mommy is young, pretty, and has a good figure. A medical expert is begging her to teach them. A top hacker is her assistant…" Song Wei gritted her teeth and covered the baby's mouth. "Shut up!" She had finally retired to the countryside to live a carefree life in her retirement, but all of this was ruined by her son! Her son even unknowingly proclaimed that she was extremely capable, causing a group of socialites to come and provoke her. Song Wei could not bear the description and rolled up her sleeves with her hands on her hips. "Come, if one of you comes, I'll kill one. If two come, I'll kill two!" When Master Lou heard the news, he smiled and warned everyone, "My wife came from the countryside. She's ignorant and afraid of strangers. Don't bully her." The socialites were furious. "Who can do that?!"

Sitting in a few large pouches was more money than he had ever seen in one place; the best part was, it was all his. His share of the money after a big job working with The Big Sticks. He thought of how comfortably he could live the rest of his life, only working when he wanted to. Now he could live life on his own, not constantly being told what to do, where he could and could not go. He carefully packed the coin away with the rest of his stuff, making sure it was neither going to be seen nor heard by other travelers on the road. He believed everyone else must have been envious that he was smart enough to get out of this line work so early. Either that, or they were daft. He pulled along his donkey packed with his belongings out of the guilds front gate. The stable master, Hans, glared at him as he left. Moss had been primarily raised most of his life by Hans, and now they were furious with each other. Hans accused Moss of being an ungrateful idiot. Moss had accused Hans of being a mother hen who only cared about everything being in its place and everyone doing what they’re told. Once in town, Moss quickly set to work looking for a place to live and settle down. Reality was fast approaching and rearing its ugly head. He quickly started realized how foolish he’d been. Everything was much more expensive out in the real world compared to the adventuring company. After purchasing a house, he couldn’t afford anything else besides a couple pieces of furniture and food for a few days. Moss had to quickly find a job, or two. Property taxes and everything else he needed would cost much more than he expected. Luckily, he was in a town where they were short on labor everywhere.
