Fortunately, that old woman wasn’t very smart. She successfully separated herself from the others in a glass room, and during the process of unloading the crabs, she heard the loud arguments coming from the main room. But from her careful listening, it was mostly the old woman’s cursing, while Old Lady Hua still tried to endure and explain.
It was only later when Old Lady Hua couldn’t endure any longer, that the two started to fight. In the end, it was probably Ms. Hua Junior and some other family members who pulled them apart, and gradually their voices became inaudible.
Even so, she already found this very entertaining. The idea of the two old tigresses of the Hua Family fighting was quite exciting.
"Speaking of which, the three mother tigresses of the Hua family are gathered together today. It would be great if all three fought each other," Yang Chuxia thought while stroking her chin.
What she didn’t know was that while she was muttering about others, several people from the Hua family in the main room of Old Yang Family’s house were also muttering about her. That old woman, upon hearing about Yang Chuxia’s recent actions, immediately shrunk her neck. Although she didn’t say anything, she gave plenty of dagger-like looks.
Especially after seeing the third family branch’s lunch, her dagger-like gaze became even more intense. As a result, Yang Chuxia had to yell at her a few times before she gave up.
After finishing the midday meal, Yang Chuxia wanted to prepare drunken crabs at home because taking them to Ye Zi’an’s house would also attract attention. However, considering that old woman still hadn’t left, she eventually went to Ye Zi’an’s house with a cart, and when the drunken crabs were ready, she brought them home.
After dinner, Ye Zi’an and Yang Qingrui went together to Ye Zi’an’s house. The rest of the people prepared to wash up and go to bed, but at this time, Yang Ruoqiu came to call Yang Dachuan, saying that Old Yang wanted to see him and had something for him to do.
Yang Dachuan had to go out, and Yang Chuxia naturally followed. Yang Ruoqiu didn’t stop her when she saw Chuxia follow, but seeing all this made Ruoqiu’s heart very happy.
After arriving at the main room, Yang Chuxia found out that it wasn’t Old Yang who wanted to see them, but the self-proclaimed aunt. When she saw Yang Dachuan come in, she began preaching about how ungrateful and unfilial he was. It wasn’t until the end that she said that since the family had money, they should help their brothers and relatives out.
Finally, the main point was revealed: she wanted Yang Dachuan to take out fifty taels of silver and give ten taels to each of Old Yang’s siblings from the main family branch and lend her, the aunt, another twenty taels of silver.
Upon hearing what she said, Yang Chuxia was speechless and rolled her eyes, eventually unable to contain her laughter.
Then she slapped the table, "You damn old woman, has shit gone to your brain? When did our Yang Family’s affairs become your business? And lend you twenty taels of silver? Do you fucking think you’re so important? Let me tell you, I’ve been tolerating you until now. Shut up or my shoes won’t be merciful!" It was only then that everyone noticed the shoe in Yang Chuxia’s hand.
The old woman was choked up, "You, you..."
"You what? Are you stuttering? Let me tell you, I’m the master of our family. If you want silver, there’s no way. Don’t you see what your position is? You’re nothing but a relative of a concubine and you dare show off in front of the main wife’s son. What kind of joke is that! Are you sick or something? If you are, get the hell back to your Hua Village and die! Why are you babbling here? Let me tell you, if I see you in Old Yang’s yard tomorrow morning, I’ll kill you." Then she slapped the old woman’s face with her shoe.
Seeing Yang Chuxia’s ferocious expression must have scared the old woman, as her face turned pale. The next day, she didn’t even eat breakfast and slipped back to Hua Village. Of course, when she left, she took a lot of Old Lady Hua’s belongings, which made Old Lady Hua grit her teeth for days.
And so, this ludicrous farce came to an end.
