Chapter 90: Xie Ying’s Counterattack
This time, Mi Duo stood by the door and turned sideways to let the two of them come in.
“My boss said that the two of you can go in now.”
Xie Wan then walked in with her legs full of mosquito bites.
The fragrance of the dishes was still lingering in the dining room and living room.
Xie Ying was already sitting on the sofa. Cheng Ling made a cup of tea for Xie Ying to drink and help digest her food.
Xie Ying had eaten more than usual today. Cheng Ling was feeling very satisfied.
Xie Ying and Cheng Ling were sitting while Xie Wan and Wang Ma were standing. The difference between them was clear.
Xie Wan had always thought that she was superior to these people. But at this moment, she felt like a servant. The two people sitting on the sofa were the masters.
This thought scared her.
She couldn’t be a servant.
So she maintained her elegance, tidied up her hair, and walked over in high heels.
She sat on the single-seater sofa while Wang Ma stood behind her.
She would be polite first, then attack.
Xie Wan put on a smile and said to Xie Ying, “Mom, were you eating just now?”
“Yes.”
Although Xie Ying had to be respectful to the Cheng family, Xie Wan was her daughter, and there was no one else by her side…
Xie Ying showed her disdain towards Xie Wan.
After Xie Ying replied coldly, no one in the living room spoke again.
It was time for the TV series to start. Cheng Ling and Xie Ying were watching the TV series intimately. Mi Duo was sitting beside them. The three of them were chatting and laughing as if Xie Wan and Wang Ma didn’t exist.
Xie Wan was a little embarrassed.
They didn’t put her in their eyes at all. She had nowhere to vent her anger.
“Mom, I heard that you hired a new person today and fired Wang Ma. What’s going on? Wang Ma came to me with grievances.”
Xie Wan said while Xie Ying bent down to grab some melon seeds from the jar under the table and slowly chew them.
After chewing a few melon seeds, she said, “How would we dare to fire Wang Ma? Wang Ma has never worked for us.”
When Xie Ying said this, Cheng Ling was surprised for quite a while.
She had always thought that Xie Ying was lenient when she turned a blind eye to Wang Ma.
She didn’t expect that she knew about Wang Ma’s laziness.
Wang Ma immediately refuted, “Old Madam Xie, what are you talking about? I…Of course, I’m here to help you guys.”
Seeing her grandmother had become more imposing and could distinguish right from wrong, Cheng Ling was relieved to let her grandmother fight these two people. She leaned comfortably against the sofa and ‘watched the show’.
“Is that so? But I really can’t see it. It’s only seven days a week, and you have to take three or four days off every time. When you work, your hands and your back hurt. I am the one who does all the work. For people who do not know, they would think that you’re the master and I’m the one serving you.”
Cheng Ling listened to what Xie Ying said and her eyes filled with a smile. She didn’t expect her grandmother to be so good at criticizing others. Her conclusion was quite good.
She must have learned it from the TV series.
Wang Ma was sent here by Xie Wan. Hearing what Xie Ying said, she could only ask Wang Ma.
“Wang Ma, is this true?”
Wang Ma was a little timid and couldn’t say anything for a long time.
“Madam, please listen to my explanation. I really have something to do at home.”
Hearing Wang Ma’s tone, Xie Wan knew that Xie Ying was most likely telling the truth.
She let out a deep breath and glared at Wang Ma from a place where no one could see her.
What a waste of time.
“Mom, Wang Ma must have her reasons for doing this. Just give her another chance.”
Of course, what Xie Wan was thinking was that Wang Ma was her spy. If Wang Ma left, who would provide her with updates? Not to mention that the Lu family would now come looking for Cheng Ling.
She needed someone to stay here as a ‘spy’.
Xie Ying looked at her daughter with her eyes full of disdain.
She really didn’t know how her daughter, whom she had painstakingly raised, had become such a person.
“I’m old bones. My daughter didn’t take care of me, and now she wants me to take care of others. I won’t do it. Wang Ma will go back to where she came from.”
“Mom…”
Xie Wan still wanted to say something.
Xie Ying lost her patience this time. After all, she had been Xie Wan’s mother for decades, so she still had some dignity.
“Okay, if there’s nothing else, you two can go back. We want to continue watching TV.”
Seeing that Xie Ying was about to get angry, Cheng Ling was worried that it would affect Xie Ying’s health and lead to high blood pressure. So, she gave Mi Duo a look.
Mi Duo was very smart. She immediately stood up, walked to the door, and opened it, looking like she was going to chase them away.
