......
Yanshan City, Emperor Jiang's family.
Enraged, Di Yao overturned the table, the ceramic bowl rolling to the ground with a crash, spilling its broth and minced meat all over the floor.
"Get out, get out of here."
Since the birthday banquet, she has been placed under house arrest by her mother, who not only scolded her for not behaving properly, but also made her personally apologize to the Tiger Clan.
Why!
"My mother must be out of her mind. That tiger clan is nothing but a dog of my Dijiang clan. It's one thing for them to shit on our heads, but they even want me to apologize. They don't deserve it!"
The old woman picked up the ceramic bowl, looked at the shattered pieces scattered on the ground, and felt heartbroken.
That would cost quite a few Dongzhuhai coins.
And just like that, it was ruined.
She quickly comforted her, saying, "Please calm down, my lady. This is only because of Jiang Shuiqi. We must always put the bigger picture first."
"Prioritizing the overall situation? What do you mean by prioritizing the overall situation?"
Di Yao suddenly stood up and pointed outside, cursing.
"I am a dignified Dijiang clan, ranked at the seventh level. When have I ever taken the insignificant Jiangshuiqi clan seriously?"
Want to get her away? Dream on.
Don't think she doesn't know that the young clan leader is about to succeed her, and that's why her older sister went to such lengths.
Di Yao paced back and forth, a sense of frustration welling up inside her.
She was deeply loved by her mother from a young age, but unfortunately, her father was of low status and could not compare to her elder sister's father's high position and power.
Upon assuming the position of the young clan leader, the entire clan followed her lead and paid her no heed.
Otherwise, why would she go to such lengths to please her mother?
The thought of spending thirty bushels of pearls made her wince. If it had been effective, that would have been fine, but now, she was not only being neglected and placed under house arrest, but she was also getting herself into a mess.
It's all the tiger clan's fault!
Di Yao grew angrier the more she thought about it, wishing she could kill these ants to vent her anger.
The old woman was afraid that she would get sick from getting upset, so she quickly offered some words of advice.
"My lady, you may not know this, but the Jiang Shuiqi clan is not what it used to be. The Night Bird Clan's business is all over the Nine Provinces, and even this pottery is made by them. The clan chief has put a lot of thought into this, my lady, please don't overthink it."
"What did you say?"
She knew about pottery.
During this period, her popularity exceeded all expectations. On the day of her birthday banquet, when she took out the pottery, many clans were extremely envious.
This pottery actually came from the Qi clan? Are you kidding me?
"The clan chief is well aware that the tiger clan has betrayed their master and is ungrateful. However, with Jiang Shuiqi acting as guarantor, they will certainly be given some face. More importantly..."
"What? Tell me quickly."
"I heard that Lady Qiyue has given birth to a cub, but the cub's mother's clan has been slow to show up, and the Qi clan is in a real bind because of this."
"Is there such a thing?"
The old woman tentatively asked, "If the concubine were willing to adopt that child as her godson, the Qi family would surely be grateful and might even hand over their business to her."
"really?"
The old woman nodded vigorously.
Di Yao was puzzled: "Then why didn't Mother just come forward and say it directly? Why go through all this trouble and make me go to the Tiger Clan?"
"This pottery was made by the Tiger Clan. The Tiger Clan and Jiang Shuiqi Clan have a long history of dealings. Otherwise, how could they have dared to betray their master and form a pact?"
It turned out to be the case.
Once Di Yao understood the key point, she stopped being angry.
Her mother loved her after all. Her elder sister's father was a former subordinate of Zhulong in his early years, and he ruled the entire North Sea. Even after they migrated to Yuanzhou, many clans followed and pledged their loyalty to him.
The elder sister's partners were all born into large clans, unlike her, who could only choose from among the household slaves.
If she wanted to be on good terms with the Qi family, then she would have some confidence.
With this in mind, how could Di Yao not be tempted?
“Go tell my mother that I will prepare generous gifts and go to Guiyulin right away.”
