When Widow Chen arrived upon hearing the commotion, the villagers had already dispersed, and Nan Feng's family had started eating. She peeked from outside, where a group of people was eating and chatting away, obviously too preoccupied to bother with her.
Not willing to give up, Widow Chen loitered outside to eavesdrop for a while, but all she heard was talk about gang leaders and Hall Masters, which made no sense to her. She was about to slink away when she suddenly bumped into another person sneaking around.
Upon closer inspection, wasn't that her nemesis, Auntie Zhao?
Auntie Zhao had the same idea as Widow Chen. She was mainly envious of Lanlan bringing some dried fruits home, thinking that Auntie Zhao had hoarded good things without sharing. Once Lanlan mentioned that Xia Ye's family had guests over and many people around got a share, she immediately came over.
