Favoring the concubine and killing the wife? She divorced the concubine and lived with her concubine

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Haitang stepped forward and pointed at those ladies angrily. Although these people seemed to be well-known, Haitang couldn't stand hearing Xiao Lan being spoken like that!

"What's wrong? Are they talking about you?" A lady gave Haitang a cold look and was about to leave.

"Don't leave! Explain your situation!" Haitang stepped forward to stop them, her eyes red with anger. She knew what Xiao Lan had been through at the Sun family, and now that she was finally able to relax, these people were gossiping about her, ruining her wife's reputation.

"I told you to admit it. Whoever admits it will feel guilty." The ladies all have some reputation in their families. Now that they are being pointed at by this little maid, how can they let it go?

"You are shameless!" Haitang has never won an argument since she was a child. She always cries during an argument and that is the reason why she never wins.

"This is Madam Sun, right? Your little maid pointed at us, the ladies of high rank, and started cursing, and you don't do anything about it?" Madam Fan walked around Haitang and looked at Xiao Lan with a haughty expression. Her husband's family was in the restaurant business, and they were the most famous and prestigious in the city! Even though Xiao Lan's family was a family of merchants, they considered themselves quite good.

Xiao Lan glanced at her and said, "Good scolding, why do you care!"

He reached out and took the material that the ladies had just chosen, compared it to Haitang, and said, "The color is too tacky and doesn't suit you." After saying that, he threw the material aside.

The shopkeeper quickly picked up the cloth and said, "Madam Sun, this is top-quality silk, and the color is fashionable in the capital." As a shopkeeper, he couldn't afford to offend anyone, especially since Madam Sun was the daughter of the Xiao family. But saying that such fine material wasn't worthy of her maid was too demeaning. How could he sell it in the future?

"Is the material so good?" Xiao Lan pretended to be surprised and reached out to pull Haitang to her side. "Do you like it? I think the color is a bit tacky, but if it's really this good, I can make a few clothes out of it and wear them casually!"

"Madam Sun, what do you mean? Do you think your maid scolded us well?" Madam Fan stepped forward and slapped the material hard. Her family was the most powerful among the other ladies following her, so she was the leader.

"No manners at all! She's a shrew!" a lady echoed.

Xiao Lan didn't look at them, but only at the shopkeeper. "I'll send someone to the Sun residence tomorrow to take measurements. I need to make a lot of clothes, about a dozen sets. If this material has other colors, please bring more so I can carefully select it."

The shopkeeper quickly agreed. Other ladies only made one or two sets of clothes, but the shopkeeper naturally had to take this large order of more than ten sets.

"Okay, okay, I'll send someone to measure it today."

"Boss, I want all the remaining colors of these fabrics!" Madam Fan said through gritted teeth, staring at Xiao Lan. Showing off her wealth to her? She never lost in front of these ladies!

"Mrs. Fan...Mrs. Fan, all these materials will cost a lot of money, you can't use them all..." The shopkeeper didn't want to leave with a big order. He naturally knew that Mrs. Fan was just acting on impulse. If she didn't want these things in the future, he would suffer a great loss.

"Whoever pays the deposit owns it?" Xiao Lan took out a banknote from his sleeve and handed it over!

"I don't know how much these materials will cost in total, but this is fifty taels as a deposit. It's proof of my commitment. It saves people from just talking nonsense, which is boring!" Xiao Lan glanced at Mrs. Fan with contempt. "How about you pay the deposit? After all, I believe in the principle of first come, first served."

When Mrs. Fan went shopping, she always put it into the Fan family's account. How could she carry so much silver when she went out? Even if her husband doted on her, he would not let her carry dozens or hundreds of taels of silver notes every day!

"Oh, what a joke, am I just saying it? We in the Fan family always record our purchases and settle the bill at home. You carry so much money everywhere you go, aren't you afraid that others will laugh at your humble ways?" Madam Fan looked at the shopkeeper with a very ugly expression, "Don't tell me you still don't believe me?"

The shopkeeper had already taken the banknote, but was flustered, unsure whether to hand it back. Mrs. Fan was a frequent visitor to his house, but this Mrs. Sun also looked like a big client, and now he was in a dilemma.

"Boss, come after lunch! Once you've received the money, it's a done deal. If you break the contract, I'll sue you in the government!" After Xiao Lan said that, he pulled Haitang away, and several tall and strong servants followed behind, looking very imposing.

Mrs. Fan was so angry that she had no place to vent her anger. She grabbed the pieces of cloth with both hands, which made the shopkeeper heartbroken!

"Mrs. Fan, why are you angry with that bitch? Go back and tell Mr. Fan! Mr. Fan will definitely support you. Now the Sun family has no useless men. Can she really call that bandit to support her?" A lady came forward to comfort her, and her words touched Mrs. Fan's heart.

"Hmph, such a shameless thing. Who doesn't know about her dowry business now? Two cloth shops and a drug store. Does she think she can show off so much?" Thinking of this, Mrs. Fan turned to look at the shopkeeper, who hurriedly shook his head.

"This is Li's Cloth Shop, not the Xiao family's!"

Xiao Lan and Haitang continued walking. Haitang was unhappy. "Madam, what they said was really too harsh!"

Because of the gossip of those ladies, Haitang now seemed to think everyone was pointing fingers at them. She looked around, sizing up everyone who passed by her.

"Other people have their mouths on them, we have no right to interfere. We are confident! Don't be afraid!" Xiao Lan patted her shoulder to comfort her.

"What confidence? I cry every time I argue, so I'm not confident at all!" Haitang was so angry that she turned around and looked at the servants, "You are so powerful, but you just watch my wife being bullied! What's the use of you!"

The detectives felt extremely aggrieved. They were undercover agents, but they were also men. How could they possibly get involved in a verbal spat with these women? Furthermore, from their perspective, the ladies seemed even angrier.

"Why don't you let me buy it!" a thin man shouted at the door of a jewelry store.

"I'm not telling you not to buy. There are a lot of customers now. You can just come later. I'll let you choose slowly then." The person who spoke should be a clerk in the store.

"I want to choose now! Why can't I join them?"

"Oh, why are you so difficult?"

"I'm not difficult! I just want to go in and pick out some jewelry. Why won't you let me in?"

"You don't listen to nice advice!" In an instant, a few more guys came into the store and were about to start a physical conflict.

Xiao Lan didn't like to join in the fun, so she pulled Haitang to take a detour, but the constables slowed down their pace.

Xiao Lan sensed something strange happening to the people behind him, and when he looked back, he saw that they were in a dilemma.

"Just say what you want to say!" She hates it most when people dither.

"That man is a coroner. We know him. He is an upright person and we are afraid that he will suffer a loss..." said a constable.

"We know each other, so go and help! It's okay! Haitang and I will go for a walk in the front!" More and more people gathered around to watch the fun. Xiao Lan liked the bustling streets, but she also didn't like being crowded with so many people.

"I can go alone, and two other people will follow my wife!" The constable was still making arrangements when a fight had already broken out over there. One person was anxious, and several people rushed over to separate them.

Xiao Lan stepped out of the crowd and watched from afar, thinking that she would not suffer any loss. Just as she was about to pull Haitang who was squeezed into the middle of the crowd, she suddenly heard a familiar voice from behind her.

"Madam, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you so much!"
