Thus she put on a fake smile.
“No, it doesn’t matter; it’s the same wherever I stay.”
After that, Wang Ma looked at Mi Duo, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV with them. The resentment in her heart toward this little girl increased tremendously.
After being busy the whole afternoon, Wang Ma was feeling tired. Now she just wanted to go back to her room and have a good rest.
Just as she was about to go up to the second floor, Cheng Ling stopped her again.
“Wang Ma, where are you going? The dishes in the kitchen have not been washed yet. Please wash them.”
“I did not eat this meal, why do you want me to wash the dishes?”
Wang Ma thought that she could be lazy like before.
“You’re so humorous. Aren’t you here to serve my grandmother? Why? You’re not even willing to wash the dishes now?”
Cheng Ling had long disliked Wang Ma. Had it not for Xie Ying speaking up for Wang Ma, she would have dealt with Wang Ma long ago.
Cheng Ling knew very well that Wang Ma was constantly providing information to Xie Wan.
Fortunately, Xie Ying’s attitude had also hardened now.
Hearing what Cheng Ling said, Xie Ying didn’t speak up for Wang Ma like she usually did in the past. Instead, she went along with Cheng Ling.
“Yes, Wang Ma, this meal was cooked by Mi Duo. You should be the one to wash the dishes. Moving on, all the big and small chores in the house will depend on you and Mi Duo. Mi Duo is still a little girl with delicate skin and tender flesh. Since you’re more experienced, you should share more.”
Hearing this, Wang Ma was not happy. Previously, she was working lazily here. If she could push Xie Ying to do it, she would let Xie Ying do it.
She always took the opportunity to slack off, and Xie Ying did not care about her.
However, Xie Ying’s attitude had changed now. Wang Ma was not used to it.
However, she was not willing to give up the opportunity to work here. Now, if she could have any information, she would tell Xie Wan. Maybe Xie Wan might think of her in the future.
Therefore, Wang Ma could only swallow her anger.
She rolled up her sleeves and walked into the kitchen.
After the TV program ended, Mi Duo went back to organize her things which were still left undone.
Now only Cheng Ling and Xie Ying were in the living room.
“Grandma, you really impressed me today. What you said today was really cool.”
Being praised by her granddaughter, Xie Ying was also a little proud.
“Certainly. You have never seen how I bargained with others in the market when I was young. It was amazing.”
Cheng Ling smiled and gave Xie Ying a thumbs up.
“But Grandma, why are you so tough all of a sudden? I saw that you were very tolerant of Wang Ma in the past. Sometimes I even suspect that you are the Virgin Mary. You don’t have a temper!”
Xie Ying was just smiling.
“In the past, I was always cautious and worried about many things. I always thought that if I could still work, I would work a little more. I didn’t want to argue with others.”
“But today, Wang Ma clearly didn’t treat us as her masters. With her misbehavior, I don’t have to be polite to her.”
Xie Ying said as she raised her hand to stroke Cheng Ling’s hair, with her eyes full of love.
“Besides, My Ling Ling is going to turn 18 this year, and she’s going to enter university. She’s going to be a big girl soon, and we should leave the Cheng family. We can’t always be bullied by them here. Sometimes, when Grandma heard how they talked about you, I felt very bad.”
Cheng Ling raised her hand and held Xie Ying’s hand.
She didn’t expect Xie Ying to think so far ahead.
Leaving the Cheng family was something she had always wanted to do. All these years, the money she made from treating people was enough to buy a house. It could even support them for the rest of their lives.
But now, what restricted Cheng Ling was this piece of land.
When ordinary vegetable seedlings were grown on this land, they would grow into ordinary vegetables.
But if the vegetable seedlings that Cheng Ling researched were grown on other lands, although they still had the medicinal effect, the effect would reduce at least by 90%.
Cheng Ling’s vegetable seedlings had to be combined with this magical land to cultivate crops that could produce the greatest medicinal effect.
This was the reason why Cheng Ling didn’t leave this place for so many years.
Cheng Ling couldn’t leave this land, and this land couldn’t leave Cheng Ling either.
“Grandma, you don’t have to worry about these things. I’ll take care of them properly. You don’t have to mind what others say either. If the mouth grows on others, we can’t control it.”
Cheng Ling had always adhered to the principle of ‘if people don’t offend me, I won’t offend them. If people offend me, I’ll pay them back double’.
She was not a coward.
She could pretend that nothing had happened to those insignificant insults.
But for some people, she would have to take revenge sooner or later.
“Grandma, I’m going to wash up first. I still have class tomorrow.”
“Okay, you go now.. I’m also going to bed soon.”
