Chapter 626: Chapter 568: Publicly Falling Out (Two in One Mega Chapter)_1
The day after attending the Guo Family’s banquet, Madam Li received an invitation from the Jiang Family.
Daohua’s brows jumped when she saw the address on the invitation.
The Guo Residence was located on the street in front of Xiao Yeyang’s estate, while the Jiang Residence was on the street behind it, effectively surrounding Xiao Yeyang.
Thinking of this, Daohua felt a bit irritated.
Anyone would feel uncomfortable knowing that they are on someone else’s mind.
As this thought crossed her mind, Daohua was startled.
Her own person…
Had Xiao Yeyang already become her own person deep in her heart?
Lost in thought, Daohua forgot she was in Madam Li’s room and flung the invitation in her hand, accidentally throwing it to the ground due to her lack of control.
Seeing this, Madam Li frowned immediately, “What are you doing?”
Daohua came to her senses, hurriedly got up to pick up the invitation, and properly placed it beside Madam Li, “Mother, your daughter just doesn’t want to attend the Jiang Family’s banquet.”
This time, Madam Li did not give Daohua a kind look, but spoke with reproach, “Even if you are unwilling in your heart, you shouldn’t show it so openly, letting others know exactly what you’re thinking. Wouldn’t that make you completely vulnerable to their manipulation?”

Saying so, her expression became serious.
“Since we’re on the subject today, mother has something to tell you.”
“You used to dislike attending banquets, and many times I have indulged you, but now you’ve grown up and you can’t always have your own way.”
“Things like social gatherings and banquets are unavoidable for every family. Once you get married and manage a household, you’ll have even more interactions. Don’t underestimate women’s gatherings; they are both a crucial means of maintaining relationships with other families and an important channel for gathering information about them.”
“We women live in the inner quarters, and our channels of obtaining outside information are limited. Much news is heard or gathered at these social events. Therefore, learning to navigate these various social situations with ease is also a skill you must acquire.”
Daohua was silent for a moment, fiddling with the handkerchief in her hand, and said in a muffled voice, “Mother, your daughter understands.”
Madam Li patted her daughter’s head, “The arrival of the Guo Family and the Jiang Family, in my view, is actually quite good. It’s the perfect opportunity for you to see how the noble ladies of Beijing socialize and conduct themselves.”
As she spoke, she picked up the invitation from the Jiang Family.
“The Jiang Family’s banquet is scheduled for April 25th; the timing is quite urgent. It seems the relationship between the Guo Family and the Jiang Family is even tenser than we imagined.”
At these words, Daohua showed surprise, “Mother, how could you tell?”
Madam Li smiled, “The moment Madam Guo and her daughters arrived, Madam Jiang and her daughters moved in nearby. Under such circumstances, either the two families are on good terms, or they are competing with each other. Based on what happened at yesterday’s banquet, which do you think it is?”
“Since they are competing, naturally neither can afford to lose to the other. If one family has thrown a party for everyone, the other certainly won’t fall behind. The fact that the two families scheduled their banquets so close to each other clearly has the intention of upstaging each other. Just wait and see, the Jiang Family’s banquet will definitely be even more grandiose than the Guo Family’s, all to overshadow them.”
Daohua shook her head in disagreement, “Life is one’s own, why live it for others to see?”
Madam Li laughed lightly and sighed, “You’re still young and don’t understand that many things are beyond our control, and some things must be fought over.”
“The Guo Family and the Jiang Family are both prominent and noble in Beijing. The rivalry between Madam Guo and Madam Jiang is no longer just their own affair; it also involves the two families behind them.”
Daohua fell silent, eventually uttering two words, “So tiring.”
Madam Li replied with a laugh, “Isn’t it? Being a daughter-in-law in a prestigious family is no easy feat, of course, not just anyone can take on that role.”
At this, the handkerchief in Daohua’s hands was twisted even more vigorously.
…
Indeed, as Madam Li had said, the Jiang Family’s banquet held on April 25th was extraordinarily grand. They had not only invited the province’s most renowned Shuangxi Troupe to perform opera but also served top-tier cuisine that amazed all the guests with the family’s substantial wealth.
Beyond these, the most surprising event for everyone was the appearance of Nanny Jia, sent by the Empress Dowager to take care of Xiao Yeyang, at the banquet.
As soon as Nanny Jia arrived, she became the center of everyone’s attention.
Daohua also took a good look at Nanny Jia, a woman in her forties, with her hair meticulously done and clothes neatly arranged without a single wrinkle. Her behavior was neither servile nor overbearing, earning her silent praise for her impeccable manners.
