Chapter 26 - Ling Xuan Got Angry
“Who said no?” A middle-aged man with a mustache lamented. “If I were to deal with it today, I might have been in a panic. This Yun Family"s Miss is really not simple!”
“She is indeed not a simple person. After she killed the chicken to warn the monkey, she flattered us. Her method was really well-played. Unfortunately, we"re the ones who know too late, and we can"t be ruthless, so that"s why she"s in control.” Someone said. They were old hands in the business world. A lot of things they would know once they thought about it. “Mistress"s daughter is really not simple. We these old folks should not make a fuss, so we can help our families stay at home in peace and stability. We shouldn"t follow Shopkeeper Yuan"s footsteps, getting thrown out even though he"s already so old.”
The idea was shared in the minds of several of the shopkeepers. Miss could only chase away Shopkeeper Yuan. She could not really chase away all of them. It"s just, no one wished to be chased away because they liked their jobs. Don"t mention the high monthly salary, but as long the business was related to the Yun Family, they all knew the benefits they would get, The Yun Family was so rich yet the Miss was flattering them. There were a lot of things that they did not have.
Shopkeeper Yuan was thrown out of Tao Di Restaurant by Miss. What awaited him was not only his ruined reputation, but also that no one would dare to hire him anymore. It was totally impossible for him to stay in the capital.
“Let"s go. Everybody has things to do. Let"s not talk anymore.” After going through this, everyone was sobbing and the little thoughts in their hearts were gone.
They were afraid that after they had the heart, they would end up with nothing.
Today, Ling Xuan just wanted to show everyone that she was not an easy target to bully even if her parents were both dead. However, she did not expect to be able to bribe some old man"s hearts.
“Kneel down.” When everyone had left, Ling Xuan suddenly shouted.
Mother Lin looked at Uncle He and didn"t know where did Miss"s anger came from.
When Ling Xuan"s eyes were looking sharply at Mother Lin, she then realized that the Miss"s command was towards her. In her eyes, there was a hint of discontent but she had no choice but to kneel down.
“Mother Lin, do you know your mistake?” Looking at Mother Lin"s resentful eyes, Ling Xuan"s mouth showed a strange smile and said with a cold voice.
“Old Servant do not know what wrong have I done to make Miss so angry.” Mother Lin said bitterly and her eyes showed grievances. “When mistress was still alive, she had never let Old Servant kneel before.”
Mother Lin"s words implied that Yun Ling Xuan had failed to comply with her mother"s wishes, and was truly unfilial.
“Uncle He, do you think Mother Lin is wrong today?” Ling Xuan did not get angry but looked up to Uncle He who had his eyes closed all along.
“Mother Lin was wrong.” Uncle He"s voice was neither loud nor soft. When he looked at Mother Lin"s angry eyes, he smiled coldly, “Mother Lin, what is your status? Are you qualified to accuse Miss when she was talking to all the shopkeepers?” Mother Lin"s behavior was indeed not likable.
Mother Lin"s face changed and then retorted, “Miss is still young. Old Servant was just trying to give a kind reminder to avoid Miss from getting tricked or losing the businesses that master and mistress had left behind!”
That ‘loyal" look on Mother Lin"s face had made Ling Xuan laughed. She finally knew how she had been tricked by Mother Lin. It was because of that look on her face. It could make a dead person come back to life. She was too young so she did not think too deep into it.
