Father Huang, Huang Qianlao, had been hiding in the back without saying a word, but deep down, he silently agreed with his wife's claims. He reasoned that since they had already sold their land and house back home, if Huang Pingguo didn't acknowledge this house as shared family property, where would such a large family go? Therefore, no matter what happened today, it was best to get this matter sorted out clearly.
It wasn't a bad thing for his old wife to kick up a fuss. It would serve to make Huang Pingguo realize sooner rather than later that it was still the two old folks who called the shots in this family. Pingguo's wife wasn't home today, and even the Zhuang Family's second daughter-in-law next door was nowhere to be seen. He figured those two women were probably hiding in some corner scheming, urging their own men to come back and make a scene.
