Chapter 167: Moving House, Hosting a Banquet and Asking for Help

"You’re right..." Ms.Wang’s voice came through in a low tone.

At this point, Yang Chuxia, who was lying in the inner room, couldn’t sleep either. She was thinking about the various events during their time here and had inadvertently overheard her parents’ conversation and their concerns.

Yang Chuxia knew she had exposed too much of herself, but there was no way around it. The situation at home didn’t allow her to hide her abilities. Anyway, she wasn’t afraid - if some short-sighted people dared to use these supernatural powers against her, she’d find a way to escape.

Since they planned to move the next day, and moving in the village required a celebration, Yang Dachuan got up early to visit Land Officer Yang’s home and called for Yang Dayong. The two went to the town together to purchase the ingredients for the feast.

Once Yang Dachuan left, Ms.Wang asked Yang Chuxia to stay home and watch the house. Meanwhile, she went out to find Land Officer’s wife, Old Aunt-in-law Gen’s daughter-in-law, and other relatives who were closely related to the Old Yang family. They would all come over in the afternoon to help wash and cut vegetables for the next day’s banquet.

As for the other wives of the Old Yang family, Ms.Wang didn’t invite any of them. At first, she had thought about asking them, so as not to make everyone lose face.

However, Yang Chuxia stopped her, saying that moving was a big happy event. If the aunts and uncles of her family were good, they’d be invited, but now that things had become like this, inviting them over would be like welcoming an ancestor.

Ms. Wang agreed and discussed it with Yang Dachuan. He then went to find Old Yang to tell him about their concerns. Old Man Yang simply remained silent for a few moments, then waved his hand for him to go and get busy.

Seeing his father like that, Yang Dachuan felt a little uneasy, but he didn’t say anything more. He just thought that they would send some dishes to them the next day. Even if the other two branches of the family didn’t look, Fourth was still his younger brother, and they shared the same blood, even if they didn’t get along on regular days.

As it turned out, the third branch of the family moved without calling the principal wives to help, which left them fuming and furious.

In the village, families usually liked to invite their close relatives and siblings to help with happy events. On one hand, it showed the support of their family; on the other hand, it brought a lively atmosphere. If these close relatives didn’t come to help, others would gossip, saying that their popularity was not good or something like that.

The wives of the Old Yang family had been looking forward to this day, thinking about how they would deal with the people from the third branch when they were asked to help. However, the people from the third branch were not worried about others talking and did not invite them to help at all.

As for this, Ms.Ye and Ms.Liu felt a little better, especially Ms.Ye, who had a clear understanding of this matter. She thought that given the relationship between their men and the third branch of the family, they wouldn’t be invited. As for Ms.Liu, she felt that with Yang Chuxia, such a powerful figure, they wouldn’t let them go to their home to eat and drink for free. So, the two women did not hold high hopes from the bottom of their hearts.

But not Ms.Luo, she thought that her husband was different from Yang Da’an and Yang Xiao’an since he was Yang Dachuan’s biological brother. Moreover, their fourth branch did not have any feuds with the third branch, unlike the other two branches who had an unpleasant relationship with the third branch. They shouldn’t be left uninvited.

Now, it turned out that not only were they not asked to help, but they were not even invited to the banquet. Wasn’t this making their fourth branch lose face?
