Zhao Liya nodded and smiled: "If mother wants to see them, they should come immediately. If they don't come, it is against the rules. If it is against the rules, I will not allow it."
The Duke's wife nodded with a satisfied smile: "Well, let's go!"
Zhao Liya took people there immediately.
The Duke's wife had hardly ever called her two sisters-in-law, Mrs. Tuesday and Mrs. Wednesday, to come into her yard. However, she had married her daughter-in-law, so she called them. What else could be the reason? You can think of it with your toes.
come out.
Those two people would not be so cooperative and would definitely find excuses to refuse to go.
It was impossible for the maids sent by the Duke's wife to take action against them, and it was even less possible for the Duke's wife to call them in person without losing her status.
Although they may not be able to push it for many days before they finally have to go, the process takes too long. If just asking someone to go can take half a month, then don't do anything else.
And even if it is useless, it can cause trouble for the people in the big house, and those two people will probably do it.
Zhao Liya went to invite them personally, making it clear that she would not give them any reason to refuse.
In a word, if I call you, go there immediately!
Because these two are housekeepers together, there is a special meeting room. They meet in the meeting hall at fixed times every morning and afternoon to discuss and deal with things.
Zhao Liya estimated the time and found that most of the housekeepers, ladies and servants who were waiting for something to happen had left, and then she arrived with her people.
Seeing her coming, Mrs. Tuesday and Mrs. Wednesday looked at each other and immediately looked unhappy.
Everyone knows each other well.
"Hey, why is my niece-in-law here? Is there something wrong?"
As soon as Mrs. Tuesday opened her mouth, she smiled superficially.
Because of Zhou Rui's incident, the two parties had already forged a deadly feud.
"Second aunt, third aunt!" Zhao Liya came forward with a smile and greeted politely, "Mom, please ask second aunt if you have something to do. Third aunt will come over. Second aunt, third aunt please invite me!"
Mrs. Zhou said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, this is really interesting. Why is it that now that she is married to a daughter-in-law and has a daughter-in-law to serve her filially, she comes to find us instead. In the past, she had to rest and no one was allowed to disturb her!
"
Mrs. Tuesday smiled half-heartedly: "No, my nephew-in-law, you are not joking with us, are you?"
Zhao Liya: "The two aunts are really good at joking. No matter how bold I am, I wouldn't dare to make such a joke!"
Mrs. Wednesday nodded: "Okay, we will go when we are free later. You can go ahead. Say hello to my sister-in-law for us. My sister-in-law has never been in good health. You came in and she seems to be in much better spirits. I think this is the place to come."
People feel refreshed during happy events. You should accompany your sister-in-law well and be filial to her. Go ahead!"
Mrs. Tuesday snorted unintelligibly from her nostrils.
Zhao Liya was sure that once she left, they would not go "later" at all. They would just be unavailable.
"Second aunt, third aunt, mother-in-law is waiting for you two. Please come with me now. Don't keep my mother-in-law waiting for a long time."
"Well, we still have something to discuss here. You can go ahead and we'll be there soon."
"Second aunt, third aunt——"
"Don't you understand what I'm talking to? Why don't you leave?" Mrs. Zhou was impatient for a long time and scolded her in a deep voice: "Ms. Zhao, do you have any education and rules? Or do you mean you can't understand what I'm saying? The elders told you
It’s so clear, why are you still messing around here? You don’t have any sharp eyesight at all. Your behavior in the future will be a joke! Don’t embarrass the Duke’s mansion!”
Mrs. Wednesday smoothed things over with a good-natured smile: "Second sister-in-law is impatient, and the child is still young, so teach her well. Don't scare the child with your straightforward words."
"Oh, if you are scared by this, then you are really not worthy of being the Crown Prince's wife! What's the use of being so courageous and ignorant?"
"Second sister-in-law, please calm down and tell me what you have to say!"
"I really want to explain it carefully, but some people just don't understand because they rub their noses in their faces."
Zhao Liya: "."
The double act between these two is really wonderful.
Zhao Liya smiled slightly: "Second aunt, third aunt are really good at joking. Of course I can understand what second aunt and third aunt say, but my mother-in-law told me that I must invite second aunt and third aunt to come over. Second aunt, third aunt
I also feel sorry for my niece-in-law, don't make it difficult for my niece-in-law. Besides, my mother-in-law must be looking for the second and third aunts, so there must be something wrong. If the second and third aunts don't go, it won't be good."
"What can happen? Why don't we go there later?"
"My mother-in-law told me to ask you two to come over immediately. As a daughter-in-law, I naturally have to obey my mother-in-law's words. Why are the second aunt and the third aunt trying to avoid it? It's really puzzling."
"Shut up!" Mrs. Zhou was furious: "What nonsense are you talking about! What are you trying to avoid in every possible way? Are we still afraid of seeing your mother-in-law?"
Mrs. Tuesday smiled: "We still have to go to the old lady. The old lady has something to do with us! Why are you so stubborn, kid? Go and talk to your mother-in-law. We will go there soon."
."
"Huh, I'm not stubborn!"
Zhao Liya said in her heart, "That's true. After all, you don't have any good intentions."
It is impossible to go back by yourself.
"That's just right. I just happened to go to pay my respects to the old lady. Second Aunt, Third Aunt, why don't we come together?"
Mrs. Tuesday, Mrs. Wednesday: "."
Both of them were stunned. They had never seen such a arrogant person! How come they couldn't even tell what was good or bad?
"What does sister-in-law want from us?"
Zhao Liya shook her head and said very obediently: "The nephew and wife don't know about this. The second and third aunts will know when they go."
Mrs. Tuesday and Mrs. Wednesday looked at each other and finally stood up resigned to their fate.
They didn't want to go, but the cruel reality simply didn't allow them not to go.
Just because of Zhao's stubbornness - I don't know if it's intentional or not, but in short, if they don't go, I'm afraid she won't give up even today.
Even if they don't find it embarrassing, what's more important is that they can't escape.
Then go, what are you afraid of?
"Let's go, let's go and see if my sister-in-law wants to see us for anything. Is it worthy of my nephew-in-law's perseverance?"
Zhao Liya smiled slightly: "Second aunt, third aunt please."
After achieving her goal, Zhao Liya gave up and stood aside obediently, showing no interest in arguing with them.
Mrs. Tuesday and Mrs. Wednesday glanced at her, and the three of them walked to the courtyard of the Duke's wife. Behind them were a large group of servants.
The two of them went over and found the Duke's wife sitting crookedly on the couch. She smiled when she saw them and said, "Sit down, brothers and sisters. Don't blame me for being crooked like this."
