The fifty sets that were delivered were all sold out in just fifteen minutes.

Madam Qi came in with sixty-five taels of silver and two hundred taels of silver notes, and placed the notes and silver in front of Xia Wanniang: "Please keep them."

Xia Wanniang didn't waste any words and took the banknotes and silver. "Madam Qi, write a promissory note and I'll put your fingerprint on it."

Madam Qi waved her hands and said, "I took advantage of you for these clothes. I just put them up for sale without even calling for them. I guess the same is true for the clothes you send me later."

"Even brothers should settle accounts clearly. Why don't you plan to settle with me?" Xia Wanniang smiled faintly.

Madam Qi smiled and said, "I just think you get along well. You can pay me back whenever you have money. There is no rush."

Xia Wanniang was not such a shy person: "Thank you very much, I will pay you back as soon as possible."

Madam Qi waved her hand: "Why don't you stay here and have a quick meal with me before going back."

Xia Wanniang shook her head: "No. There are a lot of things going on at home recently, and I have to hurry back."

Mrs. Qi did not force her and stood up to see her out through the back door. There were quite a few guests in front and it was a bit crowded.

Xia Wanniang came out from the back and walked for a while before she found someone following her, but she did not look back, but walked into the street.

There were a lot of people on the street, and she just moved through the crowd and got rid of them.

She hid in an alley, her body pressed against the wall behind her, watching the men chasing after her.

The leading man looked at the three people who were chasing him and asked, "Where are the people?"

A man said apologetically, "I lost him."

When the leading man heard this, he kicked him and said, "You can't even follow a woman. I'll see how you'll explain this to the master when we get back."

Another man pursed his lips: "Boss, what are we going to do with her?"

"The Qinghe Clothing store's business was originally average, but now the sudden increase in ready-made clothes has made their business suddenly better, even surpassing the master's Yixiu Pavilion. If this continues, the master's store will not be able to continue its business." The leading man looked indignant.

"What does that have to do with a woman?" The man who had just been kicked looked puzzled.

"The master spent money to find out that these ready-made clothes were sent by this woman, so naturally he wants the clothes in her hands." The leading man looked as if he was disappointed in his friend.

"Then just go and invite her. Is it necessary for us to capture her?"

The leading man was so angry that he slapped each of them and said, "How could I have brothers as stupid as you? Go back."

Xia Wanniang waited until they left before walking out of the alley, looking at the people who left with gloomy eyes.

It seems that I have to be more careful in the future. Being targeted by others is not a pleasant experience.

She turned and walked out of the city gate, got on an ox cart and went home.

Xiao Chiye had already prepared all the firewood that the family would need in the next few months, and he checked the condition of the thatch on the roof and repaired whatever needed repairing.

When Xia Wanniang came back, she called him into the room and handed him the two hundred taels of silver note. She also placed the remaining fifteen taels from the clothes she had sold today in front of him and said, "Take these."

Xiao Chiye looked at the silver in front of him and frowned: "Where did this money come from?"

Xia Wanniang did not hide it from him: "I borrowed it."

Xiao Chiye clenched the banknote in his hand: "I can make money myself."

Xia Wanniang: "Poor family, rich road, this little money may not be able to help, but it's better than nothing. As for if it's not enough, you have to find a way yourself when the time comes."

Xiao Chiye looked at the person in front of him and sighed: "You marrying me will actually benefit me a lot."

Xia Wanniang reached out and pinched his chin: "Then you have to be extra nice to me in the future, otherwise I'm not someone you can easily bully." After saying that, she snorted twice.

Xiao Chiye was amused by her: "I will definitely treat you twice as well, and give you all the money I make in the future."

Xia Wanniang smiled and let go of her hand, saying seriously: "Be careful when you go out." Then she took out a few medicine bottles and placed them on the table.

"You have taken this pill. I don't know if the poison in your body has been cured, but you should still take it with you, just in case. Also, these are healing pills. I bought them from the pharmacy. They are for both external and internal injuries."
