Mrs. Zhou smiled: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Why should my family see anyone else?"
Mrs. Tuesday couldn't wait and said in a weird tone: "Sister-in-law has really married a good daughter-in-law. This child is too honest, but she is really stubborn! If we insist on coming over immediately, we can't even wait for a while! We can't do it!
I thought it was something serious and urgent that happened to my sister-in-law! I feel relieved to see that my sister-in-law is doing well!"
The Duke's wife will not accept this strange and strange behavior.
After recuperating from illness for many years, the Duke's wife has long since developed a good self-control. She knows very well what kind of condition her body is in.
If you get angry easily, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble long ago.
However, she does not allow anyone to turn a blind eye to her daughter-in-law in front of her.
The Duke's wife then glanced at Zhao Liya, smiled at Mrs. Tuesday and said: "This child is filial, practical and serious in doing things, and obeys the instructions of his elders. He is a good child! As Sheng is so ignorant,
He has such a loose temper and should have a wife like this to take care of him!"
Mrs. Wednesday joked: "Sister-in-law really loves my niece-in-law!"
Mrs. Tuesday was so dissatisfied that she smiled and said: "What's the use of a sister-in-law who loves her daughter-in-law? Young people still prefer fresh, lively, bright and bright things. Which young nobleman doesn't come here like this? He is strict and square.
Who would like you if you are so dull? My niece, you need to change your temper. You can't be so arrogant. If the prince doesn't like it, if you and your husband don't get along, there will be a lot of trouble at home all day long.
, it’s not a good thing for our Duke’s government. My nephew and daughter-in-law, although these words don’t sound good, they are words from the bottom of my heart. We are doing this for the good of the Duke’s government and treat you as one of our own, so we teach you.
You, you don’t know good people’s hearts and you find us annoying!”
The hands in Mrs. Guo's sleeves tightened, she was so angry that a burst of blood rushed to her forehead, and her heartbeat became slightly unbalanced.
This is also the reason why she usually doesn't want to see these two people, the old lady and the people in the second and third bedrooms. She doesn't want to deal with them even if they take advantage of her or suffer some losses.
Out of sight is pure.
She would really be pissed off by them if she dealt with them.
She has long had a solid understanding of the four words "loss of wealth and elimination of disaster".
Zhao Liya is not a god, so it is impossible to say that she is not upset at all after hearing this.
But her heart is much stronger than that of her mother-in-law.
More importantly, she had the confidence to say in her heart: "We'll see!"
As long as this sentence is the foundation, then there is nothing to be optimistic about.
Zhao Liya then smiled and nodded gently at Mrs. Tuesday: "Second Aunt must be speaking from experience. She is willing to teach me, which is my blessing! I will definitely learn from the past mistakes!"
The smile on Mrs. Tuesday's face faltered, she glanced at Zhao Liya coldly, and snorted in disdain.
Although Zhao Liya was smiling all over her face, she always had the feeling that what Zhao Liya said was not good.
The Duke's wife felt relieved and finally felt more comfortable. She smiled slightly and glanced at Aunt Bai next to her.
Aunt Bai nodded slightly at her, winked at the maid standing beside her, and the maid quietly went out.
After a while, the courtyard of the Duke's wife was filled with a dozen ladies who held important positions in the palace and were in charge of the house.
The ladies in charge stood in the yard with their hands lowered according to their positions, holding their breath and concentrating, not daring to move.
As the mistress of the Duke's mansion, the residence of the Duke of Guo is naturally spacious and gorgeous. With so many of them standing in this huge courtyard, they only occupy a small area.
In the room, the Duke's wife finally spoke slowly: "I'm calling the second and third younger brothers and sisters to come here to tell you that it's been really hard for you to help manage the house over the years. Now I'll hand over the right to manage the house.
Well, I’ll have to do it myself from now on.”
"Let's start the handover today. Just hand over the account books and keys to various places, and then explain the unfinished business to the stewards. I will take over tomorrow. If there is anything unclear, I will ask you for advice.
.Please also invite the second younger brother and sister, and the third younger brother and sister don’t find it troublesome when the time comes!”
The room fell silent for a moment, as if the air had been sucked out of it.
Mrs. Tuesday, Mrs. Wednesday was so angry that she was almost furious.
They had long expected that Dafang had tolerated their family for many years, and had long expected that there would be a turmoil in the house after Zhao Liya, an inefficient lamp, came in. However, they did not expect that this day would come so quickly!
The two of them couldn't help but have a word pop up in their minds: Burning bridges across rivers!
Mrs. Wednesday tried her best to remain reserved and elegant, and said with a forced smile: "But can my sister-in-law's body bear it? What if my sister-in-law is exhausted?"
Mrs. Tuesday was not so polite and said with a sneer: "My sister-in-law has married her daughter-in-law, and then she has to take care of the house. What a coincidence!"
After she finished speaking, she glared at Zhao Liya fiercely.
Zhao Liya lowered her eyebrows and sat there obediently without saying a word.
She wants the housekeeper's rights, but she can't ask for it.
She is a junior.
It would be a bit ugly if the elders who had just passed the door and ignored the "hard work and no merit" forcibly snatched the stewardship from them.
The Duke's wife still has some energy, so there is no need for her to speak.
"This matter is settled."
Mrs. Tuesday, Mrs. Wednesday: "."
"Sister-in-law, are you trying to burn bridges by crossing the river? You were not polite to us when we were needed, but now you kick us away when you are no longer needed, haha!"
"Second brother and sister, what are you talking about? Second brother and sister, third brother and sister have really worked hard these years. Now I just don't want to work hard for you two anymore. This is what should be done in the first place. Is there anything wrong? Just hand over the account book like this.
I don’t have the energy to check the previous accounts year after year. It’s too troublesome. I can just record all the accounts clearly from now on. So, there is nothing to hand over, so this is quite clean! What do you think?”
The grand accountants, the public treasury in the mansion are all managed by the Duke, and the several large villages are also managed by the Duke. Even if they have been greedy over the years, they have limited power. They can just turn a blind eye.
That's all. She didn't want to settle with them for such a small profit.
Madam Tuesday and Madam Wednesday seemed to themselves to have gained a lot of benefits from the Duke over the years. After hearing what the Duke's wife said, they were relieved but also a little hesitant.
Although this sister-in-law is so ill that she can barely breathe all day long, which makes people look down upon her, she does mean what she says.
