MS. TAN IS THE REAL BOSS

Chapter 1357: 1356 does not want to leave

“Miss, I can’t lose this job,” Mei Mei began to cry, “This is already the third job we’ve found. If we get fired again, for sure no one will want to hire us.”

Tan Rou asked curiously, “Then why were you dismissed the previous two times?”

Mei Mei explained, “The first time we weren’t really dismissed, we left voluntarily because the people there had terrible tempers and treated us like slaves, with no respect at all. The second time wasn’t our fault either; the male head of that household was constantly harassing us, and when his wife found out, she fired us.”

Tan Rou was no saint; she didn’t want her sympathy to overflow, and for maids who had made serious mistakes, she wouldn’t be lenient. However, since the maids weren’t hired by her, she would have to make a trip to Mother Tao to have them dismissed.

“This isn’t my issue,” Tan Rou said, “Being fired twice already shows that you aren’t suited for this job. You’d better hurry up and find another job.”

Mei Mei and Na Na were orphans who hadn’t continued their education after junior high school. With no qualifications or relatives, it was really difficult for them to survive in the bustling Capital.

Ask them why they chose to be maids, and they would answer, “Because live-in maids have a place to live and food to eat, so we don’t have to spend money renting a place.”

Real estate in the Capital was worth its weight in gold. Buying a house here was very expensive, and renting a place wasn’t cheap either. To save money, Mei Mei and Na Na chose to work as maids in other people’s homes, but they were constantly unlucky, never managing to keep a maid’s job for more than three months.

Just as they were about to surpass three months in their current job, this incident occurred. They didn’t want to leave, nor could they afford to leave, so they had to find a way to stay with the Tao family.

“Miss, please, we really can’t leave,” Mei Mei pleaded through tears, “This summer is particularly hot, and if I leave the Tao family now, where would I find a place to live?”

“That’s your problem,” Tan Rou turned away, “Hurry up and take your money, don’t keep us from making breakfast here.”

Xiao Chang looked at Tan Rou, then at Mei Mei and Na Na, but ultimately he remained silent. Today’s incident involved him as well, but Tan Rou hadn’t pursued the matter. Since she hadn’t pursued his involvement, he decided not to interrupt lest he be considered an accomplice and be driven out alongside them.

He quietly moved to the back, hoping that no one would notice him.
