After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

Chapter 115: The aunt looks for trouble, but the madam comes to her rescue

Mrs. Liu, the aunt of the Duke's residence, did not want to see Tan Zhixu at all. Xu knew that she was invited to the residence by the Duke's wife, so she deliberately scolded her.

Tan Zhixu understood all this in his heart, but there was no wave on his face.

"Aunt Liu, you are worrying too much. The civilian woman was just impressed by your appearance, so she couldn't help laughing."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Liu, who was originally angry, suddenly smiled.

"As expected of a businessman, he really knows how to talk. If you are so glib, how could that mother-in-law like you? Doesn't she like people who like to talk the most?"

Tan Zhixu lowered her eyes, and when she heard Liu's words, a flash of panic flashed in her eyes.

Even though she had guessed everything about this aunt's behavior, she never thought that the aunt of the Duke's mansion would be so bold.

It seems that the Duke of Guo does not only love her as much as the rumors say, otherwise how could she be so bold?

Calling the Duke's wife a mother-in-law?
As a person who heard this, Tan Zhixu couldn't help but take a breath, but to be honest, she envied Aunt Liu. What woman wouldn't envy her to be so favored?

"Tan's?"

Mrs. Liu waited for a moment, but did not get any response from Tan Zhixu. She was instantly dissatisfied and sneered: "Why do you not care about me so much?"

"Aunt Liu, how could a common woman not care about you? You are the Duke's favorite aunt."

"Auntie, auntie, you keep claiming to call me auntie, don't you look down on me?"

Mrs. Liu smiled wildly, and looked at Tan Zhixu with unconcealable hatred in her eyes.

Tan Zhixu sighed helplessly. If he had known that this aunt was so worried, he should not have come.

She can call herself madam, but she can't call her madam.

If this is the case and is spread to the ears of the Duke and Madam by someone with intentions, then he himself will be a sinner.

Tan Zhixu did not explain, and knelt directly on the ground, "A civilian woman, I have no meaning at all. The civilian woman came to the Duke's mansion this time just for the old lady's birthday banquet. I hope Aunt Liu won't think too much about it."

"That's enough. I thought your mouth was sweet enough just now, but now it looks exactly like what Mr. Zhou of your family said. You are no longer a pretentious person."

Zhou's?

Tan Zhixu's heart sank. He never expected that Mrs. Zhou would be familiar with Aunt Liu from the Duke's Mansion. This time, she really betrayed her.

She opened and closed her eyes, with an attitude of resignation, her head firmly clasped on the ground.

Mrs. Liu felt angry when she saw this. She raised her foot and wanted to kick Tan Zhixu, but she was stopped before her foot touched Tan Zhixu.

"stop."

The person who blocked it was not someone else, but the wife of the Duke of Guo.

She came in a hurry, holding up her skirt without caring about her image.

From a distance, Aunt Liu could see how much this woman valued Tan Zhixu, but she didn't expect that this woman would care so much about this civilian woman.

Aunt Liu couldn't help but look down at Tan Zhixu. At this moment, the Duke's wife had already arrived in front of her.

"Ms. Liu, you are getting more and more presumptuous. The Duke of Guo loves you because he remembers the friendship between you two when you were young. You are so ignorant of etiquette and you have lost the Duke of Guo's face."

"Madam, your high hat really hurts me. I'm just teaching a woman who doesn't know the rules. What's wrong? Madam is starting to feel unhappy now?"

Aunt Liu didn't take the Duke's wife seriously at all, she didn't even show any courtesy, she just lowered her eyelids.

"Is there anything else, madam? If I am fine, I will go back first. This body is never very comfortable, you know." Aunt Liu looked at the Duke's wife delicately.

The Duke's wife was not familiar with her, she frowned and waved, "Come back."

Aunt Liu left without looking back. The Duke's wife shook her head and helped Tan Zhixu up, "Are you okay?"

Tan Zhixu saluted his wife gratefully, "It's okay, it was a civilian woman who bumped into Aunt Liu. I'm sorry for worrying, Madam."

"You, I've never known you well before, but I didn't know that you knew how to take care of others. How could I not know what kind of person this Liu is? Don't worry, Mrs. Zhou has wronged you today. I will remember it all in my heart." ”

Tan Zhixu felt warm in his heart after hearing the words of the Duke's wife.

"Let's go."

The Duke's wife greeted her, and Tan Zhixu didn't say anything else. He just nodded and followed her to the front yard.

In front of all the Duke's servants, the Duke's wife pushed Tan Zhixu forward.

"From today onwards, the Second Madam of the Hou Mansion will stay at our Duke's Mansion. From now on, her words will be mine. Except for Grandma Wang, no one else is allowed to contact the Second Madam in private."

The maids were silent, but they all knew what the Duke's wife meant. After all, Aunt Liu's news had spread from the Duke's mansion today.

Even if Aunt Liu is favored, after all, Madam is the person in charge of the Duke's Mansion, and they cannot disobey Madam.

This incident soon reached Aunt Liu's ears, and she was so angry that she threw a lot of things.

That night, the Duke of Guo came to Aunt Liu's yard, and she cried and told her about his wife's bullying of her, but the Duke of Guo became angry.

This should be one of the few times when he was angry with Aunt Liu.

"Liu'er, I loved you in the past, and even if you did something wrong, Madam wouldn't blame you. But now it's the old lady's birthday party, why are you still acting like this? Madam Tan invited her to prepare the birthday party, absolutely. It’s not a bargaining chip for you to compete for the position of the Duke’s wife.”

As soon as these words came out, Aunt Liu was stunned on the spot.

She was indeed unconvinced. In her opinion, she was the Duke's favorite person. The position of the Duke's wife should have been hers, but the Duke never asked, and she never made it clear. I don’t know that he already knew it in his heart.

The moment their eyes met, Aunt Liu burst into tears.

"So, you have always known that I wanted the position of the Duke's wife."

"Yes."

"Then why don't you give me a body?" Aunt Liu asked with scarlet eyes.

"Why should I give it to you? Do you really think you can inherit the position of the princess of the country?"

Compared with Aunt Liu, the expression on Mr. Guo's face was not much better now. Aunt Liu could see from his eyes that he looked down upon her. She had never known that she was like this in his heart. Unbearable.

"Am I so inferior to that woman who always follows the rules?"

"Madam is a little more disciplined, but she can take care of the entire Duke's palace, and you always only do things for your own pleasure. If you take the position of the Duke's wife, can you really do what she does?"

Facing the Duke's questioning, Aunt Liu remained silent.

She really couldn't do this, but was it her own fault?
"So, you are weighing the pros and cons between me and her now?"

Aunt Liu always thought that she was his favorite person, but he didn't ask his wife to give up her position. It was just because of the pressure from her family. Now it seems that it was the Duke's intention.
