Chapter 298 Welcome to Come Again Next Time
Xia Daohua was not worried at all that Wang or the Wang family would default on their debts - if anyone dared to default on her debts, she was absolutely capable of getting them back herself.
Wang watched her trusted steward lead the convoy away, then gave Si Xi a wink, and Si Xi walked forward reluctantly, holding a rosewood jewelry box inlaid with mother-of-pearl.
Xia Daohua had discovered this before, but she had never thought of it in this way. Now that she saw that the box was actually for her, she couldn't help but be very surprised.
Wang's face was full of sincerity and gratitude, and he said solemnly:
"Madam Xia, this dowry is my wedding gift. It's not worth much, but it's a set of little things that I really liked when I was at my parents' home.
This was the birthday gift my third brother found for me.
You helped me gather so much food in such a short time, and you only charged me half the money, without any doubt that I would default on my debt...
Just because of your trust, I'm determined to make you my friend.
This set of gadgets is my favorite thing, and it is quite delicate and lovely. I am giving it to you today to show my appreciation.
If you want to make friends with me, don’t refuse.”
Before Xia Daohua could even open her mouth, Wang had already said so much. She nodded decisively, took the jewelry, and responded with full sincerity:
"Okay, since Madam is willing to humble herself and make friends with you, I, a commoner, will naturally be more than happy to have you. From now on, we can visit each other often.
There is just one thing, my wife knows that I come from the countryside, so it is inevitable that I may be a little careless about etiquette and rules.
If I am impolite in any way in the future and offend Madam or the people in your house, I hope you will forgive me.
It would be better if you could tell me where I am wrong.”
Wang nodded happily: "That's right."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
Si Xi stood diagonally behind Wang, with his head lowered, feeling very disapproving.
But, since Wang had already decided on something, how could she have the right to object?
After Xia Daohua and Wang separated, Wang asked Si Xi to help her get on the Yang family's carriage. Xia Daohua turned back to the warehouse and put the jewelry box into the space.
Then he left the warehouse quietly.
A pair of eyes secretly peeping in the distance emitted two beams of greedy light.
After Xia Daohua left, a thin, shriveled figure quietly approached the warehouse. When he found that the guards had gradually evacuated, he felt that his chance had come.
He just saw with his own eyes that the girl took the jewelry box back to the warehouse, and when she came out, she didn't have the box with her!
However, after spending a lot of effort and knocking open the big iron lock on the door of the warehouse, the figure was stunned when he entered the warehouse - how could this warehouse be empty?
There was almost nothing in the empty warehouse.
Except for the dry, choking smell of dust.
Xia Daohua didn't know at the moment that a thief had entered the warehouse.
She walked slowly back to "Daohuaxiang" and came to her own seat. The waiter in the shop was very smart to make tea for her and brought it to her.
Xia Daohua nodded, letting the boy do what he wanted, and took out a wet tissue to wipe her face and hands. Afterwards, she looked at the dust on the wet tissue and couldn't help but think that she should go into the space to clean it.
She closed the curtain and slipped into the space.
She took a shower first, smelling delicious, and then changed into a new set of clothes - the same color as the one she wore into the space.
Apart from the different widths of the cotton satin skirt and the different woven patterns on the top, there is basically no other difference.
She dried her hair with a hair dryer, tied it into a bun again, ate something, and left the space.
Suddenly she felt her eyes a little sore and rubbed them gently twice. Then she heard a "rustle" and the curtain of her private cubicle was suddenly pulled open.
Standing opposite him was a tall and handsome young man with a somewhat angry look on his face.
Xia Daohua was stunned for a moment. What was going on?
The person in front of me seemed familiar, yet also a little strange. For a moment, I couldn't remember who he was.
Or maybe it's just that the people look similar. I don't necessarily know him or have seen him before.
Thinking of this, Xia Daohua relaxed.
Then I couldn't help but yawn.
Xia Daohua’s habit is to take a bath before going to bed, so every time she takes a bath, she will feel sleepy not long after.
The sudden feeling of sore eyes just now actually came from this sleepiness.
Seeing Xia Daohua yawning so naturally with a sleepy look, the young man opposite was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red.
It's not that I'm shy, but I'm angry.
This guy actually felt sleepy when he saw me? This is outrageous!
Xia Daohua's waiter also ran over in a hurry: "I told you that the shopkeeper is taking a break, why are you like this?"
Xia Daohua suppressed another yawn and said politely to the young man, "Sir, are you in any trouble?"
The young man was stunned again, and then said in a hard tone:
"You misunderstood. I heard that your store is very arrogant and you are very proud of it. You said that you have everything you need and you can satisfy any request. You also said that you can find everything in your store, except what customers can't think of. So I came here to see for myself."
Xia Daohua nodded and said:
“This rumor is too far-fetched.
There are indeed some novel things in my store, but they are all very common objects in essence, just with more beautiful appearance and more exquisite workmanship.
How could this rumor be so exaggerated? "
The young man paused for a moment and continued:
"Yixiao... In my opinion, there is nothing special about the things in your store. It's just that the shelves are a little special."
Xia Daohua nodded: "Sir, you are right. The best thing in my store is this shelf. Would you like to buy two shelves to take away?"
"you!"
The young man's face suddenly turned red, as if he was angry at Xia Daohua's unscrupulous nature of selling things all the time. But he only said this one word and stopped.
He stood there, wheezing through his nostrils for a long time, then, as if thinking of something, he turned around and walked out.
Xia Daohua came out from her own special seat and asked with a bit of disapproval:
"Sir, you were so angry just now that you even bothered to disturb my sweet dreams. I wonder if it was because the staff in my store treated you badly? Or is it because the goods in my store made you look down on them?"
The young man snorted, "Don't be so unreasonable! I won't buy anything from you!"
"Oh, you really don't want to buy it? Not even on the shelf?"
"you!"
Xia Daohua looked at the boy's face which had turned red again, his nostrils which were flaming, and his hair which was about to explode, and she gave up the idea of teasing him any further.
In my two lifetimes combined, I am qualified to be his grandmother... It is really childish for me to get angry with a child.
Xia Daohua shook her head, smiled, looked at the young man sincerely and said:
"Sir, please don't get angry.
Since you don't see anything you like, you might as well just take your time browsing. When you want to buy something, just give us a shout and our store staff will serve you promptly.
If you really don’t like anything, then please leave and come back next time.”
Good night, sweet dreams, see you tomorrow. ^_^ Love you guys, (づ￣ 3￣)づ.
