There was a slight curve at the corner of her mouth. She looked like she was smiling, but it was more of a sarcastic smile. Her eyes were cold, without the slightest warmth. She looked at Xiang 'er, who was too scared to speak, and the curve at the corner of her mouth suddenly disappeared. She asked coldly, "I asked you, what about now?"
Xiang 'er came back to herself and looked up at Tang Xi. She had worked for the Xiao Family for several years and was Xiao Yan's favorite maid. She could talk to Xiao Yan. Even Xiao Jinning used to give her gifts to please her in order to know Xiao Yan's mood, so she soon calmed down. She smiled, looked at Tang Xi in confusion and asked in a low voice, "Miss, may I ask if I've made you unhappy? Why did I embarrass you like this? "
Tang Xi smiled when she heard her words and looked at Xiang 'er with a faint smile. "You sound like I'm making things difficult for you." Xiang' er smiled and was about to speak, when Tang Xi suddenly said, "But so what? Are you going to clean up the floor or not? "
"Yes." Xiang 'er looked as if she had been greatly wronged. She forced a smile at Tang Xi and said in a low voice, "Miss, if you want me to clean up the floor, I'll do it."
Tang Xi sneered and raised her eyebrows. "Very good. Then remember, no matter how high your status in this family is, you're just a servant hired by us. You'd better not gossip about the master. If you want to put on airs as the young mistress of this family and gossip about me behind my back, you'd better sit at the same table and eat with me first!"
Xiang 'er was shocked to hear Tang Xi's words. She looked at Tang Xi in surprise and hurriedly explained, "Miss, I really didn't speak ill of you behind your back!"
"Haha …" Tang Xi folded her arms over her chest, looked back coldly at Xiang 'er and sneered. "Then I heard you quarreling with Lily in the room just now, didn't I?"
The other servants looked at each other. What was going on?! Miss was clearly in the room, how could she hear what they were talking about outside?
Tang Xi coldly glanced at the other servants and said coldly, "I'll give you a few hours to think about it. If you think you can stop gossiping in this family, you can continue to stay. Otherwise, I only want to see your resignation applications when I come back. Understand? "
"Miss …"
"How could you …"
"Miss, we weren't recruited by you. You can't fire us just because you want to!" Xiang 'er looked at Tang Xi aggrievedly and said disdainfully in her heart, "She's just a bumpkin. How dare she yell in front of us!" Even I came to this house before her. What right does she have to expel them?
Tang Xi sneered. "Have a try and you'll know." Tang Xi said and took a look at the stains in front of her. "Think about it before I come back. And you'd better clean this place."
Tang Xi said and went to knock on the door of the study. Xiao Hongyi opened the door only to see Tang Xi standing there. He gave a faint smile. "Are you going out?"
Tang Xi nodded. "Yes." Tang Xi was about to turn around, when she suddenly thought of something. She took a look at the servants and pursed her lips. "By the way, someone called your daughter a bumpkin. It seems that she doesn't welcome me. If she really doesn't welcome me, she doesn't have to pretend."
Xiang 'er and the others didn't expect that Tang Xi didn't care whether they were here or not. She just said it in front of Xiao Hongyi and didn't even try to hide it. She interfered in the affairs of Xiao Hongyi and Xiao Hongyi on the first day she came here. No sensible Miss would do such a thing!
But would Tang Xi care? She didn't care at all, because she had never been a person who would be bullied. Since someone dared to trample on her, would she still support them? Sorry, she wasn't that kind-hearted!
Upon hearing Tang Xi's words, Xiao Hongyi narrowed his eyes and his gaze turned sharp. He took a deep look at the servants and said coldly, "You don't have to come here tomorrow. Our Xiao Family doesn't need servants like you who speak ill of your master behind his back!"
All the servants were shocked. Being a servant of the Xiao Family could be said to be a very good job in City A. The salary was much higher than that of ordinary white-collar workers, and it was not tiring. All they needed to do was to clean the house, tidy up the garden, or send the clothes to the dry cleaner … If they lost this job, where could they find such a good job in the future?
The servants began to plead for Xiao Hongyi. Lily was stunned. She didn't expect that she would lose this job because of her quarrel with Xiang 'er!
Tang Xi didn't expect Xiao Hongyi would fire all the servants. She raised her eyebrows and took a look at Xiao Hongyi. "I just hope no one will say anything I don't like to hear. By the way, Lily can stay and clean the house for me. You can deal with the others as you see fit."
Since she had told Xiao Hongyi about this, she wouldn't interfere with how Xiao Hongyi dealt with these servants …
Xiao Hongyi raised his eyebrows and looked at Tang Xi. Seeing that Tang Xi remained calm, he said coldly, "Lily can stay and the others can go to the butler to get their salaries. You can leave now."
"Miss, we really didn't …"
"Didn't you?" Tang Xi raised her eyebrows. "Just stay. I'm not trying to intimidate you. I just don't like people speaking ill of me behind my back. If you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can speak up in front of me, but don't speak ill of me behind my back. Don't let me hear it."
"Miss, I won't do it again …" Xiang 'er panicked. If Master insisted on firing her before Young Master came back, she wouldn't be able to stay!
Tang Xi gave a faint smile and looked back at Xiao Hongyi. Xiao Hongyi said, "Go about your business. You won't see her staying in the Xiao Family when you come back. No one can change the fact that you are the eldest daughter of the Xiao Family. No one dares to speak ill of you behind your back!"
Tang Xi casually smiled. "Give me a driver. I'll go to the Qiao's International Group to find my Jing."
Tang Xi suddenly felt it was good to have a brother working in the Qiao's International Group. She didn't need any other excuse to go to the Qiao's International Group!
Xiao Hongyi took the phone and called the driver. "Let Old Zhang accompany you. When you come back, let Old Zhang pick you up. By the way, do you want me to buy your daily necessities, or do you want to buy them yourself?"
