Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress novel Chapter 1158

Chapter 1158: Chapter 1152: Kindheartedness

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!" The Governor bowed deeply in gratitude.

Xiao Ruohai nodded, feeling a little admiration for the ungreedy Governor, and continued, "By the way, I also need to trouble you, sir, to go to the side room first, and write down in detail what the Governor’s wife and your daughter usually like, as well as your wife’s daily habits!"

"Yes, I will write it down and have someone send it to you, sir!" The Governor quickly bowed to Xiao Ruohai.

When Xiao Ruohai returned, Chun Zhi had already prepared the copper pot according to Wei Zhong’s instructions.

The dinner was arranged in the flower hall, with steam rising from the mutton soup in the copper pot, accompanied by the aroma of the soup.

Upon Xiao Ruohai’s arrival, Bai Jinzhao smiled and said, "Xiao Ruohai, you’re here! We can finally eat! I’ve been craving it!"

"Thank you, senior brother, let’s eat and talk..." Bai Qingyan smiled and said to Xiao Ruohai, "Qingzhu doesn’t like mutton, and there are many matters in the city, so he has left first!"

Xiao Ruohai’s ears turned red as he hurriedly acknowledged, then greeted the Bai family members individually, and sat next to General Wei Zhaonian. Being all military people and all family, when traveling, they didn’t adhere to the separation of men and women at tables.

Xiao Ruohai handed the Jade Pendant to Wei Zhong and requested him to give it to Bai Qingyan, then slowly spoke, "This Jade Pendant was given to the Governor’s wife by the personal attendant of General Ye Shouguan back then. The Governor’s wife said... as long as her daughter wears the Jade Pendant to find the personal attendant of General Ye Shouguan, she would be able to steal the token! Because her daughter looks very much like her when she was young, but later the Governor said something different to his subordinates, implying... his daughter doesn’t resemble the Governor’s wife when she was young, and her daughter is scheming, which might cause trouble if she develops other thoughts midway, jeopardizing the entire family’s lives."

"How old is his daughter? Perhaps I could disguise myself as the Governor’s wife’s daughter and infiltrate Yecheng Pass to find someone?" Bai Jinzhao quickly turned to his eldest sister to request, "Eldest sister, let me try it!"

"Fifth lady, I fear it might not be suitable. The Governor’s daughter was raised in the boudoir, unlike the fifth lady who is so valiantly battle-ready, with a warrior’s aura, she might be exposed." Xiao Ruohai spoke quite tactfully. With this valiant training and the sun-darkened skin from battles, no delicately raised noble lady would be suntanned like this.

Only the Bai family wouldn’t treat their noble daughters as such; whether male or female, everyone must experience the battlefield.

Xiao Ruohai still felt sorry for their eldest miss... and the other several young misses of the Bai family.

"Then shall I go?" Bai Jinhua felt a bit uncomfortable, "But I’m not very good at acting!"

"Is this trip dangerous?" Bai Jinse frowned and asked Xiao Ruohai, "If there’s no danger, I have a person in mind!"

Bai Qingqi looked up at his seventh sister, as he also had someone in mind, presumably the same person his seventh sister was thinking of. This person’s acting was superb; ever since being found by Aunt Lu, they began pretending to have amnesia, even successfully deceiving his siblings.

Lu Ninghuan, hearing Bai Jinse’s words, knew she was referring to Lu Liaochen and felt worried, "But... but Liaochen’s identity is still unclear, it’s my fault. I thought this little girl was all alone and had forgotten everything, so..."

"Aunt Lu, don’t be so hard on yourself! Kindness is a virtue!" Bai Qingyan smiled and said to Lu Ninghuan.
