Arrogant and domineering because of his good looks: His Majesty always pretends to be righteous

"Girl, could you give me a slightly lower price?"

"Your price is a bit too high. Just give me some face."

"Do not……"

"Your family is in business, so why don't we just give it to you two?"

Xia Rongliu spoke in a quirky and clever manner, her eyes revealing a determined gaze.

Wang Runfa stared at her, knowing full well that further haggling would be pointless.

But when I looked down at my purse, I really wasn't willing to just hand over the money.

After all, eight hundred taels is not a small amount.

Seeing the guy's hesitant look, Xia Rongliu wanted to leave as soon as possible.

"wait……"

He suddenly slapped his thigh, gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and took the bag off his waist.

He clenched his back teeth tightly and gently tapped the gleaming silver coins with his thick fingers.

Counting out a number feels like my heart is bleeding.

"That's more like it. Also, you really need to treat your daughter well later on. If I find out about what happened last time again, it won't be something that can be resolved with just a little money."

Wang Runfa immediately nodded vigorously, revealing a forced smile.

Looking at the money pouch in her hand with satisfaction, Xia Rongliu felt a sense of relief...

"Mom, I'm back!"

Xia Rongliu pushed open the door and entered, eager to share this joy with her mother.

"The money-losing product is back again, what's all the fuss about?"

"Everyone in the surrounding villages knows you're coming back, so why all the commotion?"

The old lady walked out of the house with faltering steps, her sharp and sarcastic mouth unwilling to miss any opportunity.

His eyes and brows, from head to toe, revealed his disgust for Xia Rongliu.

Xia Rongliu glanced at him lightly and then placed the bulging money bag on the table.

When Grandma Xia saw the bulging money bag, she was so shocked that her jaw dropped. She stood there dumbfounded for a long time, unable to come to her senses.

With trembling hands, he counted the silver in disbelief.

"Did you earn all this money, you little girl?"

"How could you, at such a young age and with no skills, possibly have so much silver in your pocket?"

"It can't be a scam, can it..."

The old lady clenched her teeth tightly, unwilling to admit her granddaughter's excellence even at this moment.

"These are indeed the money we earned, and many people are buying flowers today. I expect our business will be booming again in the near future."

Xia Ningyong recounted the entire story of his trip in detail, his eyes filled with pride and joy for his daughter.

The old lady was so choked by the heavy taels of silver that she couldn't utter a single word.

A faint smile finally appeared on her cold, expressionless face...

As night fell, a bright crescent moon hung high in the sky.

Xia Rongliu sat quietly in the courtyard, gazing at the starry sky.

Xia Zhanxin was standing behind him without him noticing.

"Thank you so much this time. When I was cultivating these chrysanthemums, you were the one who encouraged me and stayed by my side."

"I think that without your suggestion, we wouldn't have achieved what we have today."

She blinked her bright, expressive eyes and gazed at him quietly, her eyes filled with gratitude.

Xia Zhanxin remained indifferent, her face expressionless.

Xia Zhanxin felt deeply grateful to him.

Xia Zhanxin's face remained completely unmoved after hearing this reply.

"Sister, actually I didn't want you to win the top spot at all. I wanted to see you compete, but who knew you'd overdo it and actually succeed..."

Upon hearing these words, Xia Rongliu instantly turned pale with anger.

She looked at him with great annoyance, completely baffled as to what was going on in her brother's mind, who was always trying to trick her.

"What do you mean by that? You're my brother, and you don't want me to be number one?"

She grew angrier the more she thought about it and lost her composure for a moment.

Xia Zhanxin unexpectedly took the hairpin from her hair.

Her thick, black hair was immediately draped down.

Bathed in moonlight, her delicate face resembled a blooming lotus flower, exquisitely beautiful.

"Give me back..."

"Did you hear me? Give me back my things right now."

"I'll give it to you once I catch it!"

The two chased each other through the fields, their laughter echoing throughout the landscape...

The night was hazy, and the person on the top bunk sat quietly on the bed.

If she sways slightly, her entire face will appear exceptionally haggard.

A short while later, a bloated man slowly walked in.

He held a pot of lush green chrysanthemums in his hand; these chrysanthemums were exceptionally beautiful and beyond compare.

"Wang Runfa, what are you doing with these chrysanthemums?"

Wang Runfa glanced at her lightly, and the woman on the bed said in a cold voice.

"Our salt business has been doing very well lately, so I should send something to the Prefect."

"I've heard that the Prefect has always had a particular fondness for chrysanthemums, so why don't we give this last one to him?"

The woman stared at the chrysanthemum for a long time, wanting to say something, but in the end she held back.

The next day, Wang Runfa arrived at the prefect's residence early.

"Open the door."

Who is it? Who is it?

A young maid dressed in red and green slowly pushed open the door.

Looking at the clever little girl in front of him, Wang Runfa immediately put on a big smile.

"I wish to pay my respects to the Prefect. Please inform him of my presence."

The young girl's suspicious gaze swept over the man, and when it landed on the bright green chrysanthemum in his hand, she hesitated slightly.

"You guys come with me."

Following the maid through a maze of turns, they arrived at a particularly elegant room.

From afar, one could see a tall and handsome man sitting quietly in the center, calmly savoring his fine tea.

"Sir... Wang Runfa has arrived..."

The man gently raised his eyelids, his indifferent gaze meeting the one before him.

"Your Excellency, this is a green chrysanthemum that I prepared for you. I've always known that you particularly like them."

"If you don't mind, please take it!"

The governor steadied himself and looked over. It really was a green chrysanthemum, and the pig was exceptionally beautiful, swaying gracefully.

"Give it to me?"

"Yes... this is the last one I have! I'm not giving it to you, sir, and you don't mean anything by it! It's just a small token of my appreciation."

"After all, it is with your support that our business is so prosperous."

Wang Runfa spoke respectfully, pouring out everything he wanted to say.
