Village Chief (Sun-ok) – Young Master’s Homecoming

* Village Chief (Sun-ok) – Young Master’s Homecoming (4)

I walk, having shot my wad and enduring hunger. I felt a slight dizziness because of my empty balls and stomach, but the thought of Grandma welcoming me made me not want to snack, so I went straight ahead. Maybe it’s because the fact that I’m in the village hasn’t been announced yet, but there was no commotion. It probably also helped that I was still wearing sunglasses.

I’m wearing a black suit and red shirt prepared by Mun-yeong. She also neatly styled my hair herself, but both the outfit and the overall look felt too much like a host. I remember seeing an extra goon wearing clothes like this in a Yakuza movie I watched a long time ago. I wondered if this girl liked men in these kinds of clothes, but I could catch a glimpse of Mun-yeong’s strangely energetic expression. Unlike how she looks, she’s the type to fall for bad boys.

“Actually, I wanted to dress you up even more.”

“This (shirt) alone is too much. What’s with the red? I’m not a gangster or a host.”

“It suits you well, though. Would you like to try wearing a gold necklace next time?”

“Tsk…”

I figured her tastes would be different from others since she was born into that kind of family, but this confirmed it. Just like how my family members have their own clear sexual preferences, Mun-yeong is also slightly influenced by that. It’s partly because she’s been conditioned that way by me, but I think congenital issues also account for a significant portion.

‘It really doesn’t suit me.’

I was sweating bullets inside, pretending to be fine on the outside, and we walked together, looking at that huge palace-like thing in the distance. At first, I thought that was the destination, but unexpectedly, we were moving towards an area in the corner of the village where the elders lived. I couldn’t take my eyes off it, wondering what that place was for.

“That’s where the shrine and literature related to Young Master’s lower body, which I mentioned before, are located.”

“That place?”

“Yes.”

Mun-yeong noticed my gaze and answered right away.

But…

“Why does it have to be in the form of a palace?”

“Young Master’s ancestors apparently expanded their influence and amassed wealth with their lower bodies since ancient times. In the process, wealth gradually accumulated, and as the number of women increased, they built that kind of structure to accommodate concubines. Of course, the building was destroyed and they were severely punished for offending the king… If I remember correctly…”

“Severe punishment, huh? It’s a wonder the bloodline didn’t die out. Didn’t our ancestor just die like that?”

“There are several different documents related to it. They were punished but survived, they bribed soldiers to escape, the king envied their talent and sought their advice, and…”

“And?”

“They violated the queen and planted their seed…”

The queen? That’s the king’s wife.

That’s a bit of a joke.

It’s a setting that could make a historical drama.

If it weren’t for the story about the lower body.

“So that’s a restored version of the building from that time?”

“Yes. From the perspective of the people in this village, Young Master’s ancestors are benefactors who brought wealth to this land. The ancestors’ bloodline continued to amass wealth in this village, and that has continued to this day. The fact that this village remains intact is also thanks to Young Master’s ancestors’ hard work in terms of their lower bodies during the Japanese colonial period.”

“What the hell did our ancestors do…”

“I’ll just explain that Young Master’s dick also works on men.”

Shit, that was a fact I didn’t want to know. They may be respectable figures for leaving historical records, but I can’t honestly accept it.

“I would understand even if Young Master had that kind of taste. Boys’ love isn’t bad. Absolutely.”

“Shut your mouth.”

“Yes…”

Ha-eun noona is enough for that yaoi fangirl persona. After silencing Mun-yeong, I took a deep breath while putting the story into my head.

“Ssshhh… Hah~?”

In the midst of that, a savory smell entered my nose. I hadn’t felt the excitement unique to the countryside even in this place, but my heart fluttered at the smell wafting from the large traditional Korean house in the distance.

“Young Master?”

“Grandma must be doing something.”

“The Madam?”

“I don’t know what she’s like in front of you guys, but she’s just my grandma in front of me. Of course, she cooks and makes pancakes for me too.”

Ignoring Mun-yeong, who was looking at me with a hard-to-believe expression, I quickened my pace. I knew almost everything about this village, and once I finished negotiating with Grandma, that would be a happy ending. I doubted it would actually go that well, but I was hungry, and there was no reason to walk slowly. I could feel a lot of people’s presence from the yard. But I didn’t get nervous and slowly entered with Mun-yeong.

“Huh?”

“Another guest.”

“Didn’t everyone come earlier?”

As soon as we entered, women who had covered their bodies with simple white clothes looked at us. It seemed to be a type of hanbok, but I don’t know much about that. However, what was certain was that they had no intention of covering important areas. Why is the inside see-through? This village is crazy after all.

“It’s Bok-ryong’s daughter.”

“I thought only the Moonsang teacher was coming from Bok-ryong’s house today…”

“Someone check the register today.”

“I’m looking at it now. But she’s not here?”

“Then that won’t do.”

The women in white clothes rushed in and bowed politely.

“Even if you’re the teacher’s daughter, you can’t do that.”

“We were ordered not to allow anyone else to enter today.”

“So please go back.”

From what I heard, Mun-yeong was being treated like an uninvited guest. It seemed like there were already other people inside, including Grandma, and these women were servants or something. The fact that my story, including Mun-yeong’s entry, hadn’t been conveyed meant that they didn’t want to spread the fact that I had entered the village yet.

“What should we do?”

“I know what Grandma’s thinking. She’s probably planning to officially announce my identity once the story ends here today. That’s why the village has been quiet.”

「I’ll go see your face at lunchtime, so please leave me alone until then,」 so you could say she kept her word.

“Grandma?”

The women reacted to my mutterings. I wondered what kind of education they had received that everyone in the village knew my recent face, but if it was like this, it wouldn’t be difficult to enter, and it would be simple.

“Move.”

“We can’t move. Who are you to treat the Madam like a grandma? Depending on the situation, we’ll call people and arrest you.”

“Whose permission do I need to enter my grandma’s house?”

“Are you crazy?”

“Keuheup…”

I glanced to the side. A smile was spreading across Mun-yeong’s face, and she was about to burst into laughter, which was unlike her. I got playful and went a little rough before entering, and as expected, I got the reaction I wanted. I’m grateful that they respect Grandma, but thanks to that, I’m having some fun.

“Hey, wait, stop her.”

“Why? The guy? Leave him alone. He’ll know his place soon enough.”

“No, the girl who came in this time.”

“Why her? She’s doing well.”

“Really?”

“Do you have the same thought as me, by any chance?”

“That person, could it be…”

Confusion spreads. Mun-yeong playfully wraps her arm around my right arm and pushes her chest against me. Stop making a V sign with a blank expression. I was the one who started the joke, but why are you enjoying it more?

“…………”

Only then did the woman in front of me turn pale. It was an expression that she belatedly realized who she was dealing with. She said she was a newbie, so she must have just started this job. She must have stepped forward first because she had a strong sense of justice? No, a strong sense of loyalty, but that became poison.

“Can I pass?”

“Juuuust in caaase… Could we check your faaaace…?”

“Hmm, Mun-yeong-ah.”

“Yes.”

Mun-yeong, who was clinging to my arm, gently took off the sunglasses on my face. We never practiced to act like this, but the act is very natural.

“Uhhh… Uh-oh…”

“Young Master?”

“Really?”

“What are you talking about? There’s no way Young Master would be in the village… Huh…”

Not only did surprise spread among the women who were presumed to be servants, but the path opened naturally. There was even a girl who grabbed the servant in front of me by the hair and pulled her back to clear the way. The act was violent, but the woman who was pulled didn’t get angry. Instead, she quickly lowered her head.

“I’m sorry! I never dreamed that Young Master would come to the village?!”

“I was just joking on purpose, so don’t apologize so much. It was fun thanks to you.”

The atmosphere became suffocating for a moment, but the tense atmosphere seemed to ease with my words, and it became noisy again. They were muttering, 「It was noisy at night, come to think of it,」 and the answer came back, 「It must have been because of Young Master,」 and somehow it was a flow that they understood on their own.

“Is my grandma inside?”

“Yes! She’s enjoying a drink with the elders!”

“Do the others know I’ve come?”

“W-we found out for the first time too! Maybe a few people know because of the commotion yesterday! I think the rest don’t know!”

“Is that so.”

Enjoying the embarrassing atmosphere, I finally crossed the threshold and entered the inner courtyard. No one stops me and Mun-yeong. Rather, the fact that those women are following Mun-yeong and me in units of dozens makes my lower body feel itchy.

“Shall we inform the others?!”

“Grandma will tell them later, so keep your mouth shut for now.”

“Yes!”

“Which way should I go to the room?”

“This way!”

“We’ll guide you!”

“May we take off your shoes?!”

“Okay.”

“We’ll keep your shoes!”

“Please follow us this way!”

I act as if I’m used to giving orders to people and go inside. The sound of wood being stepped on echoes loudly in the wide hallway as the women rush in all at once. Someone peeked their head out from the large room with sliding paper doors attached to it, probably noticing the commotion, but they opened their mouth and soon closed it without saying anything.

“Madam! Madam! Madam!”

It was funny how they were startled and fell backwards after seeing my face.

I’m not a ghost, why are they so surprised?

“Young Master has arrived!!!!”

Along with someone’s urgent shout, the sliding door that was guarding the large room burst open.

“Oh, you’ve come?”

“Yes.”

The first to greet me was our Sun-ok grandma.

And the surprised faces of grandpas I didn’t know.
