A partir do momento em que Xica entrou nos salões, a cidade não foi mais a mesma. Damiana, a esposa do capitão, desdenhava em público mas tremia de ciúmes em privado; os coronéis cochichavam, apontando dedos; escravos sorriam cúmplices quando ela passava. Xica não desejava vingança — desejava respeito e o direito de escolher. Usou de inteligência e afeto: ajudava os doentes, representava os pobres nas negociações e depositava no semblante de João a confiança que ele não encontrava entre iguais.
Xica da Silva's relationship with João Fernandes de Sá, also known as João de Sá, was the turning point in her life. Sá was a powerful and wealthy man, who had made his fortune in the diamond mines of Minas Gerais. Xica da Silva became Sá's companion, and eventually, his wife. The marriage was not without controversy, as it was considered scandalous for a slave to marry a wealthy and influential white man.
