Chapter 186 - 186 Habit
186 Habit
Seeing that Qiao Xuan could make her kneel down so smoothly, Liu Yan could not help but feel irritated. But it was already too late.
She was a maid after all, and she was used to kneeling down. So she did it almost subconsciously.
Shao Taotao got so frightened that she retreated backwards, and turned to look at Qiao Xuan nervously.
Ms. Fang was startled as well. “Well… get up, now!”
She almost reached out to help Liu Yan up, but Qiao Xuan stopped her secretly.
Qiao Xuan turned to Liu Yan and smiled. “You have done well. Get up now. From this moment on, you should settle down properly and serve us full-heartedly. Just do what you are supposed to do. Do not say anything that should not be said, or do anything that should not be done. In this way, you can live a good life.”
“My mother-in-law and her family are all excellent and kind-hearted people. You can be assured.”
“Okay, let’s go and clean up your room!”
Qiao Xuan looked at Ms. Fang when she said that. Ms. Fang nodded dumbly as Qiao Xuan led Liu Yan to a small wing-room, where she needed to clean up everything alone.
She was the maid, but why must she clean up her own accommodation as well?
Seeing that the light was bad, and there was some mold floating in the air, Liu Yan noticed that the broken side room was filled with stuff. Everything was so filthy. She got so angry that she said to Qiao Xuan, “Second Miss, this is not a place to live.”
Qiao Xuan smiled. “This is what the countryside is like. What about me sending you back home, if you are not used to living here?”
Liu Yan. “…”
She wanted to do that too, but she could not leave, not right now!
Liu Yan almost burst into tears. “But how can I clean it up? I don’t know how to do that. Second Miss, please get two people to help me out!”
She worked with Elder Miss as the secondary maid, who had never done this kind of tough labor work.
Qiao Xuan stopped smiling and frowned. “Who do you want me to get to help you? Me? My mother-in-law? My sisters-in-law? You are a maid, and this is your work. What about you going back to the Qiao Family and bringing someone over to help you!”
Standing there motionlessly, Liu Yan turned to look at Qiao Xuan in disbelief.
Qiao Xuan ignored her, turned around and left.
Liu Yan stared at Qiao Xuan transfixedly. For a moment, she almost felt that there was something wrong with Second Miss.
But she said nothing in return. Seeing the mess in front of her, she felt so bad that she wanted to die. She was not in a mood to do anything!
Qiao Xuan went to speak with Ms. Fang and Shao Taotao about Liu Yan’s presence here.
“…I did not dare to tell you about this, Mom, because I was worried that you would hate me. My lineal mother doesn’t like me that much, and Liu Yan is here to spy on me. She might even do something to make our family worse. So…”
Shao Taotao was transfixed.
She always believed that Fifth Sister-in-law must have lived a good life at her mother’s home, where she never needed to worry about anything.
But it seemed that her fifth sister-in-law had not been in a good position earlier.
The kind-hearted girl felt so sorry for Fifth Sister-in-law. She did not have a mother to love her, and did not even dare to report it to her father. It was so difficult!
She was going to treat her fifth sister-in-law well, so she could live a happy life!
