149: Chapter 149: Moving_1 149: Chapter 149: Moving_1 Actually, calling it moving was an overstatement as the house was virtually empty; but even if the bedding had become as hard as a stone slab, it couldnât be discarded.
Having something was better than nothing.
Of course, even if something really needed to be thrown away, Sanni would not agree.
The young girl guarded the household possessions as if she were a stingy penny-pincher and insisted with conviction that âA broken house is worth a thousand pieces of gold.â
Yang Ruxin couldnât help but laugh and cry at this, so she stopped trying to interfere.
Whatever Sanni wanted to take, they took; they could always replace it with something new later.
As expected, apart from Yang Baixiang, not a single person came over to help, and even Yang Baihe stood in the middle of the courtyard, watching carefully, as if afraid they might take something extra.
Yang Baixiang had been released only after being detained for two days.
The others who came to help included Gu Yao, Little Liuzi, and Tie Dan.
âBig sister, letâs live a good life from now on and make them green with envy,â Sanni said fiercely, glancing at the main house.
âBy then, let them have regretsâŠâ
âGirl, remember this: life is for us to live, not for others to watch.
We donât need to care about what others think,â Yang Ruxin said, touching Sanniâs small face.
âHowever, making them regret, that we can do!â
âGiggleâŠâ Sanni laughed happily.
Although Xun Hui was unconscious, moving wasnât difficult with so many people helping.
They found a door plank to use as a stretcher and carried her directly to the back of the village.
But before officially leaving the Yang Family home, Yang Ruxin had one more thing to do.
âGrandparents, weâre leaving now,â Yang Ruxin announced standing in the center of the courtyard, with the divided familyâs share of grain at her feet.
âGo ahead,â came a voice from Yang Anshi inside the house.
âWhat I mean is, when we agreed to split up the family, it was promised that we would get two hundred pounds of grain,â Yang Ruxinâs voice grew louder.
âWhere is the grain?â
Yang Peili, who had been silent inside the house, frowned and suddenly felt uneasy.
He glanced at Yang Anshi subconsciously..
âWhatâs the matter?â Yang Anshi immediately felt guilty, quickly got off the kang, stepped out of the house, and glared at Yang Ruxin.
âDidnât we already give it to you?
How much more do you want?
Let me tell you, forget it.
You ungrateful wretches will not meet a good endâŠâ
âGrandma, whether we meet a good end or not, weâll have to wait and see,â Yang Ruxin replied without anger, raising her voice towards the house.
âGrandpa, arenât you going to come out and take a look?
This is the first time Iâve heard that sand and rocks can be counted as grainâŠâ
âWhat sand and rocks?
Get lost immediatelyâŠâ
âSanni, go quickly and get the village head, third great-uncle, and the others to take a lookâŠâ
âWhat on earth is going on?â Hearing this, Yang Peili had to come out.
âGrandpa, you finally came out.
So, please take a look, what is this?â Yang Ruxin opened several bags.
âThis is the first time I realize that these can be considered grain,â she said, pointing to a sack at the very end.
âThese are what we collected over the past few days.
Grandpa and grandma, donât we deserve an explanation?â
Since they were moving, the Yang Familyâs main gate was open, drawing many villagers who came to watch the commotion.
Of course, some wanted to help Yang Dani.
At this moment, with Yang Ruxinâs shout, the crowd outside surged inside.
âMy goodness, there are more rocks here than grain,â said Yang Zhenli, looking into each sack and then raising his eyes to Yang Peili.
âOld uncle, this is too much.
How can the kids eat this kind of grain?â
