Chapter 238: Chapter 238: Treating the Person Who Helped to a Meal
Although the Hua Family came looking for trouble, they didn’t cause any serious injuries. It was just superficial wounds that could be treated with some medicinal ointment.
Seeing that there was no major problem on the Yang Family side, the people brought by Yang Dayong said their farewells and left.
Yang Chuxia felt grateful for so many people coming to support them, even though they didn’t help much.
She shouted, "Thank you all, uncles and brothers, for coming to help today. To express our gratitude, we from the third branch of the family are inviting everyone to dinner tonight!"
"No need, Xiaxia. What’s the fuss? We’re from the same village, and helping each other is what we should do." The young man who had been stared down by Yang Dayong earlier spoke up first.
People in Yangshu Village always stuck together. Whenever someone had a problem, as long as it was against outsiders, they would come out to help. This was what they should do, and no one expected to be treated to a meal.
Yang Dayong also said, "Exactly, Xiaxia. You don’t need to invite us. This is just how our village operates." He thought to himself that there were quite a few people in this group, and most of them were young men who could eat a lot. Treating them to a meal would cost a considerable amount of money.
"It’s no big deal, Uncle Dayong. I can afford to treat everyone to a meal, just as a token of appreciation." Moreover, she had thought that in the past, the relationship between the Old Yang Family and the rest of the village was not very good due to Old Lady Hua. If it wasn’t for Yang Dayong’s intervention and Land Officer Yang’s involvement, people would not have been willing to come.
But they were going to live in Yangshu Village in the future, and having a harmonious relationship with the neighbors was important. So she might as well take this opportunity to repair their relationships so that they could help each other out in the future if needed.
After thinking it through, she said again, "I’ll go buy vegetables later, and tonight I’ll treat everyone to a good meal. Please don’t be polite. It’s all thanks to everyone coming today, otherwise, the Hua Family might have reneged and refused to leave, and there would have been nothing we could do."
Everyone knew that she was deliberately attributing the success to their support, even though when they had arrived, the people from the Hua Family had already been prepared to leave.
Seeing her insistence, Yang Dachuan joined in, "Yes, everyone, we’re grateful for your support today. Xiaxia said she’ll treat everyone to dinner, our third branch of the family will keep our word. Please feel free to come tonight."
The villagers noticed that Xiaxia’s family really wanted to treat them to a meal and felt that the Yang Family’s third branch was kind and righteous, going out of their way to repay even small favors.
As Yang Chuxia promised to treat everyone to dinner, she wouldn’t go back on her word. After leaving the Old Yang Family, Yang Dachuan and a few others went to reclaim the land while some people who came with Yang Dayong also joined them.
Considering that they were invited for dinner later, they couldn’t just eat without pitching in. They hadn’t really helped with the earlier incident, so they decided to help with the land reclamation instead, otherwise, they wouldn’t feel good about it.
Thus, Yang Chuxia returned to the Yang Family alone.
"Why did it take so long?" Ye Zi’an stood up and asked as soon as he saw her return.
"It’s all because of the mess at the Old Yang Family. Old Master Hua came with a group of people to cause trouble, and my great-uncle and fourth uncle were beaten up. My grandpa was also pushed."
Hearing this, Ye Zi’an’s face darkened. The Hua Family really couldn’t let things go. "What about now?"
Yang Chuxia shrugged, "I told Old Master Hua about Ms.Lv’s situation. I think, considering his temper, she must be having a hard time."
