Zhulan and Zhou Shuren took the opportunity while dinner was not yet ready, letting the eldest carry Da Qian, and a group of people went to the Clan Leader Zhou's house first.
Clan Leader Zhou was a clever man. Seeing the group and not asking what they were there for, he knew they were headed to Zhang Datie's house and promptly followed without a word. He also sent his son to invite the Clan Leader of the Zhangs and the Zhang elders.
Zhulan had memories of interacting with the Clan Leader's family. In reality, the Zhou family and the Zhou Clan were familiar strangers, which explained why, in the novels when trouble befell the Zhou family, no one from the Zhou Clan came forward to help.
Zhang Datie lived at the edge of the village. Zhulan's group and the Clan Leader Zhang's group arrived at Zhang's house together.
