Chapter 577 Pay Back the Money
The man laughed and ignored what Xu Miaomiao had just said. As long as there was no evidence, she couldn't let him do anything.
"Madam Xu, I respect you as a woman who owns a shop, so I tolerate you again and again. But Madam Xu, please don't think that I am easy to control. You want to scare me by saying a few threatening words. We both own a shop on this street, so I shouldn't be that afraid of you."
"I'm not afraid, of course I'm not afraid."
Xu Miaomiao smiled brightly. She naturally knew that the man in front of her was good at confusing right and wrong. However, things had come to this point and if she didn't produce some evidence, the man in front of her would probably not admit it. With a slight wave of her hand, Xiao Si on the side handed a contract to Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Miaomiao calmly put the thing down, looked at the man in front of her and continued: "Boss, do you recognize this thing?"
The man looked at it curiously, and simply picked it up and looked at it carefully. His expression suddenly changed, which made people stunned. He stared at Xu Miaomiao in shock: "How do you have this thing?"
The most important thing when opening a shop is to protect your own account book. The account book is the most important thing for a shop. Every business owner will inevitably have some leaks in the account book. Now what Xu Miaomiao gave him was nothing more than some sources of silver in his account book that could not be clearly accounted for.
As for the source of this thing, it was all thanks to Song Weiwei. Xu Miaomiao had previously discovered that the prices of the things in this rouge shop did not match the annual taxes, and now she has finally found the loophole.
"Madam Xu, what are you trying to do? The secrets in every store's account book are secrets that must be confessed. What exactly do you want to do by doing this? You are violating the code of business."
The man spoke bluntly, as if Xu Miaomiao had committed a capital crime this time. However, what he said was indeed right. This was a secret that all businessmen knew but did not talk about. Now that she had brought it out in the open, it was indeed a bit embarrassing.
"Boss, if you hadn't deceived my little sister first, I wouldn't have done such a thing."
Xu Miaomiao said it lightly, she was still leaving a little face for the person in front of her. If she had to make everyone's words clear, she probably couldn't say it here.
"It was Song Weiwei who was willing to bet on horses with me, and that's why she lost money. What does it have to do with me? The horse lost, and it has nothing to do with me. I'm just a messenger."
"If I really lost all my money betting on horses, do you think I would still be standing here?"
She had already investigated this matter a long time ago. The man racing the horse was obviously the younger brother of the owner of the rouge shop. The two of them were in a mess and were just trying to cheat people out of money. As long as Song Weiwei chose that horse, the horse would be drugged. It would seem that it was a strong contender, but in fact it would be absolutely impossible for her to win.
The man was slightly stunned when he heard this. He held the account book in his hand but could do nothing to Xu Miaomiao. He could only grit his teeth and said, "I know. These silver coins will be delivered to your house sooner or later."
Xu Miaomiao listened to the sound of his back teeth almost breaking, smiled, turned around and left the rouge shop. The smell of rouge and powder here was too strong. As soon as she came out, Xu Miaomiao waved the air in front of her in dissatisfaction.
"How is it, is the matter resolved?"
Gu Yuanniang gently coaxed Xu Nianmiao in her arms, looked at Xu Miaomiao and then spoke.
Xu Miaomiao nodded slightly: "Solved."
"These people are really despicable. They actually did such a thing together. It's really infuriating." When Gu Yuan's mother said this, there was a bit of resentment and indignation in her, as if she was speaking for Song Weiwei.
Sitting down on the round chair, Xu Miaomiao took a sip of tea and then said, "So what? If Weiwei had discussed this matter with us, we wouldn't have been deceived, and this wouldn't have happened."
Gu Yuanniang smiled and said, "Actually, you're not really angry with her. You just want to teach her a lesson so that she won't act on her own in the future."
Xu Miaomiao turned her head away awkwardly, and then she spoke: "Who said I'm not angry with her? She's already grown up, how could she be deceived by something like this? Besides, if she goes out in the future, what will she do alone? This time she just cheated some money, what if her life is threatened next time? Why doesn't she understand?"
Xu Miaomiao was so focused on her own complaints that she didn't notice that Gu Yuan's mother in front of her glanced at the rockery next to her, then silently hugged Xu Nianmiao and left.
When Xu Miaomiao turned around, she saw Song Weiwei lowering her head, standing in front of Xu Miaomiao with a wronged look on her face: "Sister-in-law, I was wrong, so don't be angry with me. No matter what happens in the future, I will definitely discuss it with you and Liu Niang, okay? Next time, I will definitely tell you in advance."
"There will be a next time?"
Xu Miaomiao raised her eyebrows and looked at her.
Realizing that Xu Miaomiao's anger had dissipated, Song Weiwei immediately smiled and hugged Xu Miaomiao: "Okay, sister-in-law, I promise, there will never be a next time. Thank you sister-in-law for helping me recover the money."
"I think you can no longer manage the money. I will be in charge of your share from now on. I must teach you a lesson this time."
"Okay, okay, whatever my sister-in-law says is what happens."
Seeing Song Weiwei like this, Xu Miaomiao always thought about it and couldn't blame her. She just hoped that she would be more sensible in the future: "By the way, Liu Niang blamed you for the swing. Xiaobao is really seriously ill. In the future, you should stay at home and make medicinal food for Xiaobao."
“It’s natural.”
Song Weiwei nodded immediately: "I have been thinking about that horse race these days, and I forgot about the swing. If Liu Niang hadn't mentioned it yesterday, I would have forgotten it."
"How dare you say that?"
Xu Miaomiao tapped Song Weiwei's forehead and said nothing more. Song Weiwei was not a child, and some things could be left unsaid. She must have figured it out herself, and she was not willing to preach too much.
But this time, because of this incident, she and Liu Niang misunderstood Xu Xi without any basis. It was really their fault. Thinking about Xu Xi's innocent eyes at that time, and the frightened look when Gu Yuanniang talked about her, Xu Miaomiao sighed.
At that time, she was not standing in front of Xu Xi. She trusted her so much and had been following her since she woke up. Now she didn't speak for her, and she didn't know if Xu Xi was really sad.
