2229 Eight families gathered (1)
Hmph! Don't think that he didn't know what these people were up to, but this time, they had made the wrong move! If the poisoning incident was so serious that it could not be cleaned up, the family head would not only blame him! None of the Yao family elders could escape!
With this thought in mind, elder Yao Jiu slowly calmed down.
But seeing him like this, it was the Yao clan's first elder's turn to be worried.
Ever since he had suffered a crushing defeat at the Yao clan tower, causing the Yao clan to lose a large sum of money, his position in the patriarch's heart had been plummeting. Although he still held the position of the first elder of the Yao clan, it was clear that his words were no longer as important as his ninth brother 's!
This fact made him extremely depressed, but he couldn't find any good opportunity to show off and wash away his previous humiliation. Therefore, he could only watch helplessly as the ninth elder of the Yao family became a popular person in the eyes of the family head! The poisoning of the four families this time seemed to have allowed him to see the light of hope. However, after listening to the ninth elder's words, he deeply felt that it wouldn't be easy for him to gain enough benefits from this poisoning incident.
After some thought, the worry on the Grand elder's face deepened. He sighed heavily and said,"Ninth brother, this is all too sudden. We're worried, but we can't think of a good solution even after discussing it for a long time. The key is, will the four families that were poisoned let this go so easily?"
"That's why I think that there's not much point in our discussion here. It mainly depends on what the other four families plan to do. Therefore, I suggest that we first see what they think!" After a pause, the Yao clan's first elder continued.
The Yao family's first elder's words made the other elders nod their heads. Seeing this scene, the first elder couldn't help but feel proud. The older the ginger, the spicier it was. After all, ninth brother was still too young! He only thought about solving the problem, but he couldn't figure out the crux of the problem. In his opinion, those four families would never let go of such a good opportunity. They might even ruthlessly extort their Yao family! He was very experienced in this!
Because he had done that many times in the past. Of course, he had also been treated that way many times. The ones who left the deepest impression on him were uncle long and his people!
When he thought of uncle long and the others, he still gritted his teeth in hatred.
Initially, he thought that he would have a chance to take revenge for his imprisonment with the help of Leng ruoxue's incident. However, he did not expect that the Yao family would be the first to get into trouble. This caught him off guard! Once this matter was revealed, it was obvious that a shadow had been cast over the meeting of the Eight Families.
AI! The other three hadn't arrived yet! If they heard about this after they came, what would their reaction be? When he thought of this, the Yao family's first elder was truly worried. He definitely didn't just want to see the ninth elder make a fool of himself. After all, this concerned the Yao family's reputation!
After hearing the Yao family's first elder's words, elder Yao Jiu asked with uncertainty,""First elder's meaning is that we should not move first?"
"Right! If the enemy doesn't move, we won't move either. Let's just wait and see what their next reaction is. After all, the one who stands out first will definitely lose!" The Yao clan's first elder said with a shrewd expression.
"But, they were poisoned in our Yao family. We can't just ignore them, right?" Although elder Yao Jiu also felt that great elder's words made sense, he didn't completely agree with them.
"No one asked you to ignore it! He still needed to show some concern! However, our Yao family can't be the first to relent or suggest how to deal with the aftermath. We must let them state the conditions first and then we can discuss them! We need to at least know what they mean first, so we won't be too passive!" The Yao clan's first elder suggested.
"Then ... Alright!" Elder Yao Jiu hesitated for a moment but still agreed. Seeing this, the Yao family's first elder was extremely proud!
At the same time, he felt that his right to speak had increased.
What he didn't know was that the ninth elder of the Yao family wouldn't do everything according to his wishes. After the meeting was over, elder Yao Jiu immediately went to see the head of the family and passed on the elders 'wishes to his ancestor. After the head of the Yao family heard it, he pondered for a long time before nodding and repeatedly reminding him that the other three families weren't a threat. The main issue was the ning family's attitude!
With the family head's approval, elder Yao Jiu was full of confidence. Every day, other than visiting the poisoned people of the four families as usual, he didn't mention anything about the aftermath.
As time passed, the Cheng clan, Yin clan, and Lu clan also felt that something was not right. However, because they were all led by elders, there were many things that couldn't be decided at all. Therefore, the three families secretly discussed and each sent an elder to see the ning family master.
In fact, after the poisoning incident, the other three families had also sent people to the ning family's guest house to express their condolences. However, at that time, they didn't talk much about the matter in order to avoid suspicion, lest the Yao family think that the four families had joined forces, which would make it even more difficult to end the matter. But now, they couldn't care so much!
The three families had already sent the news back to their families. Before the master of the family arrived, they could only follow the lead of the master of the ning family! And this was also forced by the Yao family's attitude. At least, the elders of the three families all thought so.
The master of the ning family received them in the living room and very cordially, he took the initiative to ask about the situation of the poisoned person. The three elders also answered truthfully, but what made them depressed was that every time they mentioned the Yao family's attitude, the master of the ning family deliberately changed the topic. They didn't even lean on it.
The first face-to-face meeting had ended in failure!
The ninth elder of the Yao family naturally received the news immediately, but he was also confused.
What did master ning mean?
If it were him, he would be very happy if the other three families took the initiative to come to him, but the current behavior of the ning family master made him puzzled.
After that, he told the master of the Yao family about the situation. When the master of the Yao family heard it, he immediately believed that the ning family was just being pretentious! He wanted to use this matter to make the other three families stand on the ning family's side.
When he thought of this, he immediately ordered patriarch nine not to let the four families come to an agreement. They had to break the Alliance. Otherwise, it would be bad for the meeting of the Eight Families.
Elder Yao Jiu became nervous when he heard his family head's analysis. Then, he immediately went to see the elders leading the teams from the Cheng, Yin, and Lu families.
Because of an unsuccessful meeting between the four God domains, the Yao family suddenly became serious and acted as if they were facing a great enemy. The master of the ning family, who learned the news later, laughed so hard that his image was ruined!
Sitting in the garden of the house, everyone looked at the master of the ning family, who was laughing so hard that he almost rolled on the ground, not knowing what to say!
Did it have to be so exaggerated!
Wasn't it because the Yao family had started to value the other three families? However, the Yao family had not come to see the head of the ning family because of this matter. Shouldn't he be crying? How could he still smile so happily? Everyone was puzzled.
