Chapter 1048 - 1050: The Comer is Up to No Good_1

After some thought, she said, "Everyone is right from their own perspective. If you insist on saying it’s something passed down by the Ye and Yang families, then there’s nothing I can do. How about this—I’ll take you to the Ye Family and ask Xiaxia for a clear explanation? What’s the point of making such a racket without knowing what’s actually going on? It only serves to make us a laughingstock."

"That’s kind of you, Uncle. Thanks for the trouble," Ms. Liu Junior’s brother said, a phrase meant to keep up appearances.

But Yang Dayong didn’t agree. What would it look like with so many people rushing towards the Ye Family? People who didn’t know might think it was an attack. Indeed, the Liu Family had brought quite a number. In addition to Ms. Liu Junior, her brothers and sisters-in-law were present, as well as a couple of cousins and their wives. Only Ms. Liu Junior’s father was absent.

So Yang Dayong suggested, "I think it would be better to ask Xiaxia to come over to our house. It’s inappropriate for so many people to be visiting."

When Ms. Liu Junior’s family heard this, they were displeased. What was wrong with bringing so many people? It’s not as if they were there to steal or rob.

Ms. Liu Junior’s sister-in-law also pursed her lips, thinking she had wanted to see what the landlord’s family was like. Was that not allowed anymore?

Ms. Liu Junior’s brother chimed in, "Brother-in-law, your words are quite unwelcoming, as if we’re going to bully someone. Don’t forget, it’s the Ye Family who is bullying our family right now. We’re only going over to talk things out, and yet you make it sound like we’re not even allowed to visit."

Before Yang Dayong could reply, he continued, "I see that you’re someone who curries favor with those in power. They’re wealthy, aren’t they, and now you’re taking their side. Sure, you’re related to the Ye Family, but you’re also related to the Liu Family. Moreover, the Liu Family is your in-laws, which makes them closer to you than the Ye Family. You’d best not forget that."

At that moment, Yang Dayong also felt exasperated. What had he said to provoke his brother-in-law to say so much?

Poor Uncle Dayong was experiencing the Liu Family’s troublemaking for the first time. He had heard about it before but hadn’t believed it.

Little did he know the breadth of Ms. Liu Junior’s brother’s mind. The barrage of words was actually a way to remind Yang Dayong that his allegiances should lean closer to his own family, urging that no matter what, he should support his side when discussing the matter.

Land Officer Yang, listening to Ms. Liu Junior’s brother, darkened in his expression.

Without asking further, he immediately sent a worker to summon Yang Chuxia.

At that moment, Yang Chuxia was at home, entertaining her child. Hearing that a worker had come to fetch her, she quickly changed clothes and was ready to leave, not planning to bring anyone with her.

It was the worker who suggested, "You should bring more people with you."

Yang Chuxia was surprised and asked why. The worker then told her everything straight, including what the people from the Liu Family had said and so on.

Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia was speechless. It was clear that these visitors bore ill intentions.

After thinking it over, she took Ye Yi, who had not yet left, and also brought Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Li’s mother with her.

When they arrived at Land Officer Yang’s house and saw so many people from the Liu Family, Yang Chuxia was genuinely startled. No wonder the worker had advised her to bring more people, especially given their disapproving looks when they saw she had only brought three.

"Grand Uncle, I heard you were looking for me?"

Yang Chuxia didn’t greet the Liu Family members. Since they were not relatives, why bother? Seeing their unfriendly gazes, she figured they meant no good, so she decided to keep her politeness to herself.

"I have something to discuss with you. Please, take a seat first," he said.

Before Yang Chuxia could sit down and before Land Officer could speak, Ms. Liu Junior’s sister-in-law couldn’t wait to begin her interrogation.
