Real or Fake Missy : I Have a Piece of Godly Land

Cheng Ming was a soft-hearted person. He was afraid of his father in particular. He didn’t dare to say anything, so the dinner table was completely silent.

Cheng Xiao looked at the expressions of the few of them, and after a moment, she said softly, “Grandpa, I see that you didn’t cough today. Are you feeling better?”

Hearing his granddaughter he was proud of was concerned about his health, Old Master Cheng was feeling much better.

“Speaking of which, I don’t know why I was coughing this morning, but I suddenly felt much better this afternoon.”

Cheng Xiao said happily, “That’s great. Maybe the medicine given to you by the family doctor is effective. Grandpa, you have to drink more water to keep warm.”

Old Master Cheng, who had quarreled with Cheng Ling today, felt relieved when he heard that Cheng Xiao was so concerned about him. She was totally different from his other granddaughter.

At least he still had a granddaughter who could be the apple of his eyes.

“Well, thank you for your concern, Xiao Xiao. Compared to your sister, you are different. Besides making me angry every day, she has no other use.”

Hearing this, Cheng Xiao lowered her head and took a sip of the soup to hide the pride in her heart.

What she said just now was to make Old Master Cheng compare the two of them.

As the saying went, ‘no comparison means no harm’. Compared to Cheng Ling’s words, as long as Cheng Xiao showed her concern, her favorable image in the Cheng family’s hearts would be even better.

“Grandpa, don’t comment Sister this way. Sister didn’t receive a good education since she was young. She didn’t want to behave in such a manner, too.”

“Xiao Xiao, you’re so kind. Your sister has ignored you time and time again, and you always speak up for her.”

“That’s not true. She is my sister! It’s only right for me to do so.”

Old Master Cheng nodded in satisfaction.

“Good. With a granddaughter like you in the Cheng family, we would be able to bring glory to our ancestors.”

Due to what Cheng Xiao said, Old Master Cheng’s mood at the dining table was much better. Cheng Ming and Xie Wan were no longer so uncomfortable.

While they were eating, Wang Ma suddenly walked in.

Wang Ma was initially a servant of the Cheng family. After Cheng Ling and Xie Ying moved there, Xie Wan specifically assigned Wang Ma to take care of the two of them.

In the name of taking care of them, Wang Ma was actually Xie Wan’s spy. She helped Xie Wan to monitor their every move. If there was any movement, she would call Xie Wan.

Now that she saw Wang Ma coming over, Xie Wan knew something had happened.

“Madam.” Wang Ma stood in the living room and wanted to say something, but she hesitated.

Xie Wan put down her chopsticks.

“Dad, I’ll go see what Wang Ma has to say first.”

“Okay.” Old Master Cheng answered casually.

Xie Wan brought Wang Ma to a place where they couldn’t be seen from the dining room.

“What’s wrong, Wang Ma? Why did you come here all of a sudden?”

Wang Ma finally could start to complain. She quickly poured out her grievances. “Madam, when I went back just now, I found that that girl, Cheng Ling, actually hired someone herself. She even told me that she didn’t need me to continue working there and asked me to come back to look for you.”

She hired someone, what was going on?

Cheng Ling that girl didn’t have any money, and Xie Wan probably knew how much money Xie Ying had. How could she have the spare money to hire another servant?

“Wang Ma, you must have heard wrong, right?”

“No, that wretched girl Cheng Ling told me personally. I heard it clearly. After that, the woman they hired even chased me out of their house. I had nowhere else to go, so I came over to tell you.”

“There’s such a thing? Since that’s the case, Wang Ma, go to the kitchen and see if there’s anything you can help with. I’ll go and tell them.”

Wang Ma agreed and went to the kitchen.

She thought to herself, it’s still better to be at Cheng Ling’s place. I don’t have to work and I can slack off.

Xie Wan returned to the dining table with a worried expression.

Cheng Xiao saw her and asked considerately, “Mom, what’s wrong?”

Xie Wan was waiting for someone to ask her a question.

So after Cheng Xiao asked, she immediately answered, “Just now, Wang Ma came to tell me that Cheng Ling hired a maid and sent Wang Ma back.”

“Hired a maid? What does that mean? She doesn’t like our Cheng family, yet she has to hire a maid herself?”

Under normal circumstances, Old Master Cheng wouldn’t care about such a small matter, so she could just change the maid.

But now, Cheng Ling was more important to him than before. So whenever Cheng Ling made a move, his reaction was much greater than before.

Seeing that Old Master Cheng was about to get angry again, Xie Wan quickly fanned the flames.

“That’s right. After all, they are from our Cheng family. I originally wanted the two of them to have a better life, so I sent the capable Wang Ma over. Now that they sent Wang Ma back, do they still care about us?”
