Chapter 859 Wang Ma, Get the Payroll
Mu Qianqian was not far away and heard Xu Zhiyi's words.
Her face darkened, and she walked over to the two maids, scrutinizing them with cold eyes.
Although Mu Qianqian did not speak, she exuded an imposing aura without being angry.
The two maids were even more frightened.
This is the matriarch of the Mo family!
They are their highest leaders.
If they offend the lady, they're doomed.
They turned their pleading eyes to Wang Ma.
Wang Ma and Madam have a very good relationship, so she should be able to help them, right?
Wang Ma turned her face away, deliberately ignoring their cries for help.
"Where has your professional ethics gone? How dare you speak ill of your master?"
Mu Qianqian's cold voice came, and the two maids were so frightened that they couldn't speak.
“My daughter-in-law is also your esteemed mistress. If you do not respect her, you are disrespecting me. No matter what you have said, you must apologize to the young mistress.”
“We…we didn’t say anything bad about the young mistress.”
A maid mustered up her courage and offered a defense.
"The fact that she was able to marry the second young master is not because she accumulated a lot of good fortune, but because the second young master accumulated a lot of good fortune to be able to marry her. If you don't respect her, then get out of the Mo family. The Mo family doesn't need people who don't respect their masters."
"Wang Ma, pay them their wages and let them go."
With a single, casual remark, Mu Qianqian caused two maids to lose their high-paying jobs at the Mo family.
"I'm sorry, madam, we were wrong."
"Madam, we will not do it again. Please don't fire us."
The two maids hurriedly apologized to Mu Qianqian.
"You shouldn't apologize to me."
The two maids hurriedly apologized to Xu Zhiyi.
"I'm sorry, Madam, we were wrong."
"It was our ignorance and our presumptuousness in speaking ill of you. We were unaware of our boundaries. We are sorry, young mistress."
Xu Zhiyi didn't even lift her eyelids, looking at the two maids with a cold gaze.
"Although I am kind-hearted and do not want to argue with you, you have indeed looked down on me. I hope you will remember my mother's words: no matter whose family you work for in the future, do not look down on anyone. You must give them the respect they deserve."
After Xu Zhiyi finished speaking, she turned and went to the living room.
"Madam, please don't fire us."
The two maids started crying.
"This is a lesson for you. Be careful in the future."
"Wang Ma, see them off."
"Okay, ma'am."
Zheng Xueqing, who was in the distance, heard Mu Qianqian's words and watched her deal with the two maids. Her eyes lit up.
As expected of the matriarch of the Mo family, her mother-in-law's imposing presence and authority are something she can't imitate.
Although she was also the matriarch of the Yu family, she felt inferior to Mu Qianqian.
The members of the Yu family never respected her.
She is a mistress of the house, but she doesn't live up to the title.
It seems I'll have to learn more from my mother-in-law in the future.
"Wife, learn more from your mother-in-law. Don't be soft-hearted towards those trashy members of the Yu family. As the matriarch, you must have authority and be respected."
Yu Haonan also witnessed what happened at the restaurant.
He took the opportunity to teach his wife.
"Hmm, it seems that one should not be weak or kind-hearted. I've learned something."
Lan Xinmei and Mo Jiangnan, who were sitting on the sofa chatting with their mother-in-law Rong Xue, exchanged a glance.
They all understood why the old man had chosen his second daughter-in-law, Mu Qianqian, to become the matriarch of the Mo family.
Instead of letting the eldest daughter-in-law, Zhuang Ziyan, take this position.
"It seems that the old man made the right choice."
"Dad has a sharp eye! My second daughter-in-law is indeed capable of managing the Mo family well; she is the rightful matriarch!"
Lan Xinmei and Mo Jiangnan said in unison.
Rong Xue listened to her mother-in-law's praise of her daughter with a face full of satisfaction.
“My dear in-laws, you flatter me. Yuan’er is also very outstanding. Our Mu family members also speak highly of her.”
When Rong Xue talked about her daughter-in-law Mo Tingyuan, her face was full of satisfaction.
"It's all thanks to your excellent teaching, Mother-in-law. I was always worried that Yuan'er wouldn't be able to handle the Mu family's affairs well, given her personality."
Lan Xinmei wasn't just being polite.
My daughter has always been gentle and kind-hearted.
She was always worried that her daughter wouldn't be able to handle the mess in the Mu family.
“Mother-in-law, you underestimate Yuan’er. Everyone in the Mu family respects Yuan’er. Even our elders praise her.”
The two mothers-in-law praised each other's daughters.
Mu Jinxi and Mo Tingyuan, standing to the side, smiled helplessly.
The two mothers were practically praising each other in a business setting.
Over the years, since marrying into Country A, Mo Tingyuan has indeed grown a lot.
From a naive young lady to a daughter-in-law capable of shouldering the responsibilities of the Mu family.
Fortunately, she was able to grow thanks to the guidance and tolerance of her mother-in-law, Rong Xue.
"Moms, stop flattering each other. Mr. Yu and the others are here too."
Mo Tingyuan felt sorry.
“They’re not outsiders, they’re in-laws, so it’s okay to talk about it.”
Lan Xinmei smiled happily.
"Yes, we're all family, so feel free to say whatever you want."
Yu Haonan added a sentence.
"It's time to eat, everyone please."
Mu Qianqian invited Yu Haonan and the rest of her family to the restaurant.
The younger generation sat down at the table without hesitation.
The elders were all seated at the main table.
Just then, Merschen and Merschen returned.
"Mom, what happened?"
As soon as Melham entered, he asked.
"What? What happened, Hanhan?"
Mu Qianqian was completely confused.
“There were two maids at the door, crying and sobbing, complaining to the neighbors that it was you who shouldn’t have fired them, and that you were using the neighbors’ mouths to criticize you.”
"what?"
Wang Ma was the first to jump up and roar.
"Young Master, don't listen to them. It was because they spoke ill of the Second Young Madam that she dismissed them. I compensated them with three months' salary as she requested."
Wang Ma was the one who best sensed the atmosphere.
The Mo family's wages are already high. Giving them an extra three months' wages is equivalent to a year's salary for an average worker. How dare they make a fuss?
When Mo Erchen heard about this, his face immediately darkened.
He went to his wife's side and hugged her to comfort her.
"Wang Ma, pull up the restaurant's security camera footage. Let's go to the entrance and let the neighbors see who's really in the wrong."
Mo Erchen gave the order, and Wang Ma immediately went to check the surveillance footage.
After reviewing the surveillance footage, Mo Erchen's face turned ashen.
"Mom, please take care of Zhiyi and let her eat first. We can't let her go hungry. I'll go to the door to handle this."
"Wang Ma, take the payroll sheet with you and come with me."
"Okay, Second Young Master."
Wang Ma happily ran to the servants' room, picked up the pay sheet, and came out.
"Erchen, handle this calmly."
Mo Tingye reminded his son of something.
"Got it, Dad."
Mo Erchen, accompanied by Wang Ma and several bodyguards, went to the entrance of the old house's ornate iron gate.
In the restaurant
Xu Zhiyi was in a bad mood and barely ate anything.
Cheng Sinuo served her a small bowl of soup and gently comforted her.
