Chapter 337: Cutting Off the Robe



Xia Daohua sorted out the accounts of business dealings with Wang's company and without hesitation stopped all projects that required her own supply.

Then, she cut off a piece of the collar of a pink Hangzhou silk robe embroidered with elegant orchid patterns that Wang had given her, put it in a wooden box, and sent a servant to deliver it to Wang.

Along with the piece of clothing, there was also a short letter with only two or three lines written on it, but the tone of the letter expressed his determination to sever ties with Wang.

Xia Daohua did not hide the fact of her feud with Wang from her family. Besides, she had already withdrawn all her business, so she couldn't hide it even if she wanted to.

The old couple didn't say anything, and the couple in the fourth room were also silent.

In their opinion, this wealthy family is not easy to deal with. If you often walk by the river, you will get your shoes wet. Xia Daohua was able to hold on until today and finally couldn't get along with them. She was already quite capable.

The second couple were very unhappy.

If it weren't for Erlang and Taohua, he would have lost his temper on the spot.

Ever since Erlang married Zhou Yunniang as he wished, he became increasingly rude to the second wife. Sun was even vaguely afraid of him, but seeing that Erlang had a sullen face and didn't say anything, she didn't dare to get angry.

However, behind Xia Daohua's back, Sun often complained that Xia Daohua was too troublesome and had offended the nobles, which might bring trouble to the family one day.

After talking so much, Xia Yougui also got tired of it:

"Why are you so talkative? You keep repeating the same things over and over again. Aren't you tired of it?

Haven't we already separated? As long as Xia Daohua doesn't run off to rebel, we won't be implicated in this case.

Besides, she is just a little girl. No matter how capable she is, she can't rebel!

Even if she has the intention and guts to do something evil, why would anyone mess around with her? It would be better if she was a man! Who would want to mess around with a little girl? "

Sun listened, but her anxiety did not diminish at all:

"Hey, what's the point of saying this?

You don't care if she's rebellious or not, she just had a falling out with the county magistrate's wife! They had a falling out!

Besides, no one said that she couldn't make money. She was just being pretentious. She cancelled the deal first! She didn't even want the money. Oh my god, it really makes me so worried! It hurts me so much!"

Even though no matter how much money Xia Daohua could earn, it had nothing to do with Sun's earnings, Sun couldn't help but feel the pain.

Her heart was bleeding.

Especially when she thought that Erlang's business might be affected in the future, she felt so angry that her teeth were itching, and she felt that Xia Daohua was the troublemaker.

The short-lived sister-in-law was right when she said, Xia Daohua, ah Xia Daohua, she is a jinx!

Xia Yougui and Sun never imagined that Xia Daohua actually considered rebellion.

To them, this is pure suicide.

For Xia Daohua, if she was really forced into a desperate situation and had no choice, then raising the flag of rebellion might be a way out.

Although she can take things as they come and even go with the flow, she also has her bottom line that she cannot give up.

He broke off his friendship with Wang without hesitation because Wang carelessly crossed Xia Daohua's bottom line.

Even if the status between friends is unequal, at the very least, they must respect each other's will and personality.

Wang would definitely understand this principle.

But she chose to indulge her cousin and gave up her friendship with Xia Daohua.

When Wang saw the things that Xia Daohua had someone send over, her face became extremely stern, and she really felt a little regretful.

Although Xia Daohua behaved like a merchant and liked to keep accounts clearly for everything, she was always able to buy and transport grain whenever people asked her for it, and she was willing to pay no higher price.

I'm afraid such a good thing will never happen again.

At least, before I find out the upstream supplier behind her, there will be no more...

Wang Silang became more and more interested:

"Is this girl really stupid? She would rather offend our family than accept the ready-made wealth and glory, and she even dares to trample on the face of you, her backer?"

Wang hesitated for a long time, but finally expressed her thoughts: "Silang, I will take you to apologize to Xia Daohua."

Wang Silang's eyes widened in disbelief. Seeing that Wang's expression seemed serious, he couldn't help laughing: "Are you teasing me? Wanting me to lose face and apologize to a servant?"

"Xia Daohua is not a slave. Besides, even if she is a slave, it would not be appropriate to let her go without finding the person behind her, right?"

"What are you afraid of? You have silver in your hand, so why worry about not being able to buy food?"

Even if you have silver, you may not be able to buy food.

However, the Wang family has already stabilized and controlled a large area, so they are not short of food now.

Wang looked at Wang Silang and couldn't help but sigh.

Alas, I was careless after all!

Xia Daohua was the same. She was always kind and good-tempered. Sometimes, when servants treated her badly, she would not care much. I thought she was powerful...

If I had known that Xia Daohua was such a strong-willed girl, I wouldn't have thought so badly.

Now that she has severed all ties with me, if Silang is unwilling to apologize, I'm afraid there will be no turning back!

Seeing Wang's sad face, Wang Silang was very disapproving:

“There are so many merchants in this world!

We in the Wang family are willing to look for her because of your kindness!

Since she is so ignorant, we might as well spread the word and see who else dares to offend our Wang family and do business with her!

If we destroy her business, the master behind her will naturally show up!"

Wang still frowned slightly, but after thinking carefully, she felt that there were not many loopholes in Wang Silang's words, so she nodded:

"Now it seems that this is the only way. If she wasn't so stubborn, I wouldn't want to break up with her."

"She's just an ignorant little girl, why are you being so fussy? You weren't like this when you were at home! Could it be... that you were led astray by your brother-in-law?"

"It's fine if you're making up stories about me, but you actually dare to make up stories about your brother-in-law. I think you're just itching for trouble!"

Wang Silang's few words made Wang change her mind. Sixi quickly took Wang's order and arranged for someone to go out and pass on the message.

Merchants throughout Jixiang County have all heard about the "Daohuaxiang" who keeps coming up with new things. The boss has offended the wife of the county magistrate, and this time he is probably in trouble.

As a result, not only did Xia Daohua take the initiative to withdraw her business from the shops belonging to the Wang family and cut off business dealings with "Daohuaxiang", but the restaurants that Xia Erlang had previously negotiated with also broke their contracts and broke their promises, preferring to pay compensation rather than do business with the Xia family anymore.

After a brief thought, Xia Daohua realized that Wang wanted to use this method to force the "person behind her" to show up.

If there really is a boss behind the scenes, and if I offend him and my business suffers a large-scale suppression, I will certainly be severely punished by this boss behind the scenes.

Unfortunately, the so-called boss behind the scenes is herself.

Wang was destined to be disappointed.

Xia Daohua shook her head and sighed as she changed into a nightgown.
