Chapter 476 Want to tease her

"If it's not a misunderstanding, then there must be another reason?"

Mrs. Zhou Er couldn't stand it any longer: "Sister-in-law, aren't you a little too partial? How dare you say such a thing!"

"Second sister-in-law," the Duke's wife glanced at her lightly, "Second sister-in-law, you don't have to be so loud. I can hear you. It's really making me dizzy and my ears are ringing!"

Mrs. Tuesday: “.”

Are you made of porcelain? Porcelain is stronger than you! You're so weak yourself, yet you still refuse to stop and ask your daughter-in-law to make trouble every day!

Zhao Liya suppressed her laughter and finally raised her eyes: "Second Aunt, you must know what my mother-in-law's health is like, right? If you have anything to say, you can come to me. Please control yourself in front of my mother-in-law."

Mrs. Zhou Er opened her eyes wide: “.”

How could she, the victim, be the one who was made the fool? How could this be justified!

Lady Liguo looked at Zhao Liya helplessly and said, "Hey kid! Come on, tell me what's going on. I want to hear your story."

Mrs. Tuesday snorted coldly!

As expected, birds of a feather flock together.

"Yes, mother!" Zhao Liya nodded respectfully and responded softly, then said, "Actually, I've already explained everything very clearly to Second Aunt before. I'm also very puzzled as to why Second Aunt still bothered Old Madam and mother with this matter. If Second Aunt still doesn't understand, you can ask me again."

After insulting Madam Zhou Er, Zhao Liya continued, "Although those valuables belong to Second Aunt, they're being carried out in broad daylight by her men. If anyone saw them, they'd probably say all sorts of things. And those speculations wouldn't be good! If rumors were to spread like wildfire, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of our Duke's Mansion? That's why I intercepted the valuables."

"Then why don't you give it back to me? Why did you keep it for yourself?"

"Second Aunt, you're confused again!" Zhao Liya smiled helplessly at Mrs. Zhou Er and explained slowly, "Didn't I make it very clear to Second Aunt? I'm just keeping it for you temporarily and I won't swallow up your things. I've asked someone to register it, and I'll give you a copy of the book when the time comes!"

The Duke's wife then said, "So that's what's going on. Second sister-in-law, I understand Ya'er's personality. She would never do anything like embezzling things from her elders. Don't worry, second sister-in-law!"

"you--"

Mrs. Zhou said coldly: "In this case, the matter is very clear. Zhao, please return the things to your second aunt. I promise she won't do this again."

Zhao Liya refused: "Old lady, this won't do. I asked Second Aunt, but she refused to tell me what she was planning to do by transporting such a large amount of property out of the mansion. What if... Anyway, for the sake of the Duke's Mansion, I will not return this property to Second Aunt for the time being. Old lady, do you know how valuable those two boxes are? They are worth at least 100,000 silver coins!"

This time, Mrs. Zhou was speechless.

A second wife in a duke's mansion inexplicably transported property worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver out of the mansion. Who would believe that she had no purpose and was just joking?

This isn't just about doing something; it has to be about doing something big.

Old Madam Zhou glared at Madam Zhou Er and scolded her, "It's already this late and you're still hiding this? Tell the truth!"

Mrs. Zhou Er stammered, "I, I want to send those things back to my parents' home. That shouldn't be a problem, right? Is it possible that even this is not allowed?"

She sent her own property back to her parents' home. As long as she is willing, no one can say a word against her!

Zhao Liya glanced at her and was shocked by her shamelessness.

Send her back to her parents' home!

Don't think she doesn't know that her parents are long gone. Although she has two brothers on her mother's side, their relationship with her is very ordinary and not very close.

Her brothers, nephews and nieces from her mother's side were not very successful either. They were the kind of people who could barely make it into the mainstream of the capital - much better off than ordinary people, but far from being in the circle of power and wealth.

After all, the second and third masters of the Zhou family have no rank, no title, and they themselves do not have much ability. Even if Old Lady Zhou wanted to marry a good daughter-in-law of noble birth for her two biological sons, she could not do it!

Who would be willing to do that?

After Madam Zhou Er married into the Duke's Mansion, her brothers from her natal family kept asking her for help with this and that, but how could Madam Zhou Er manage this? Over time, both sides became dissatisfied, and conflicts arose.

How dare she say that property worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver would be sent back to her mother's family to her brothers?

When did her second aunt become a millionaire? How come she didn't know?

Zhao Liya's eyes rolled and she suddenly wanted to do something bad.

She then looked at Mrs. Zhou Er as if she had suddenly understood something: "So that's how it is! If that's the case, why didn't Second Aunt tell you earlier? I've really wronged you. I'm so sorry!"

Old Madam Zhou and the wife of Duke Liguo couldn't help but look at Zhao Liya in surprise.

It was rare for the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to agree, but now they both thought it was so strange that Zhao Liya would say that.

Mrs. Zhou Er also found it quite strange, and then a feeling of smugness arose: "I always say that old ginger is more experienced. What is this little bitch Zhao Liya? Look, once the old lady took action, she coordinated with me perfectly, without a single leak. Even if this little bitch had more tricks, she would be helpless."

Humph, she has some good sense and knows how to apologize and make amends!

Mrs. Zhou Er snorted lightly, "Since you know you're wrong, how can I, as your elder, really argue with you? Just apologize sincerely and we'll let it go!"

"Of course I have to apologize," Zhao Liya quickly replied with a smile, "But how can an apology alone be enough? A niece's wife should naturally serve Second Aunt and worry about Second Aunt. How about this, let your niece's wife take those two big boxes to Second Aunt's family! Second Aunt, don't worry, your niece's wife will take good care of them and hand them all over to your family. I will also tell them that these are from Second Aunt, so that they will remember Second Aunt's kindness!"

Lady Liguo covered her mouth with a handkerchief and lowered her head to cough out a series of coughs, laughing in her heart until her stomach hurt! This child is so naughty!

How could she tease her second aunt like this?

Mrs. Zhou Er was shocked. Without thinking, she blurted out, "No!"

Are her two pairs of brothers and sisters-in-law any good things? In recent years, the family has become increasingly poor. Once the things are in their hands, don't even think about getting them back.
