The next day at 4:00 am, the White Mansion.

  The oil lamp on the table had burned out, and outside the morning light was already shining dimly. Lingxiu, who was dozing off with her head in her hands, was startled awake by a dull thud from outside the door.

  Whats going on? She rubbed her eyes, got up in confusion and went to open the door.

  Outside the door stood a dignified and elegant beauty, with a slender back, hair as black as clouds, wearing a brocade skirt with peony patterns that shimmered in the light. The embroidery on the hem was exquisite, with layer upon layer of flower petals, even the stamens were clearly visible, and as she moved, it seemed as if the wind had blown through someones garden of peonies, and the scent still lingered.

  Ling Xiu was stunned and asked cautiously: "Sir, who are you looking for?"

  Hearing her voice, the beauty turned around, yawning and said: "Are you awake? Come quickly to help me."

  Apricot eyes and cherry lips, a small porcelain face, looked very familiar. She stared at her in surprise for a while, then suddenly exclaimed: "Miss?!"

  Hua Yu smiled at her: "Youre back a bit late, but you should still make it. Here, hold this."

  As she spoke, she stuffed a heavy yellow pear wood cosmetic box into her arms and went in to drink two mouthfuls of cold tea first.

  Lingxiu stupidly hugged the makeup box, stumbled two steps and followed her into the house, still shocked: "Where did this dress come from?"

  She swallowed her tea and took two deep breaths before saying, "It was a gift from someone else."

  What? Give it away? Lingxiu shook her head repeatedly. How is that possible? Such good material, no worse than those in the palace, not to mention such exquisite embroidery, at least worth half a years salary of the master, who would be stupid enough to give it away for free?

  "Dont mind these for now." Putting down the teacup, Li Huaiyu got up and went to the dresser, "When I climbed back over the wall, I saw that there was already a carriage waiting at the entrance of the White Mansion. Quickly help me choose some accessories, once they leave, well go too."

  Lingxiu was full of doubts, but going to Jiangs house was the top priority now. So she hastily took out her makeup box and opened it, planning to take out two pieces of jewelry for Miss to adorn herself with.

  As soon as she opened the trunk, she was stunned again.

  "Hmm?" The person beside her remained still for a while, and Huai Yu looked at her with a puzzled expression.

  Lingxiu Zhangs mouth was agape as she stared at the contents of the makeup box, her face pale: "Miss, did you go rob a jewelry store?"

  "... " He couldnt help but laugh and cry at the same time. Huai Yu supported his forehead with his hand, shaking his head and muttering to himself, "I said not to let him be so exaggerated."

  Inside the makeup box, there were two sets of precious hairpieces and some loose hairpins, step shakes, and flower pins. The gold and jade mixed together in a dazzling display. Arbitrarily picking out one golden silk eight-treasure bead pin, it was an exquisite work of art, clearly very valuable at first glance.

  Lu Jinghang furrowed his brow and said, "Im really heartbroken."

  It can be said that he didnt hold back at all when giving her things, but in the end she couldnt bear it anymore and punched him against the wall before he stopped.

  "Are you crazy?" she asked with wide eyes.

  Lu Jingxing rubbed his chest and sighed: "Being beaten while sending someone off, what kind of thing is this?"

  He straightened up and inserted the last hairpin into her bun, then smiled and said: "However, you are a person who, no matter what appearance, must be elegant and noble to be suitable."

  Li Huaiyu rolled her eyes at him.

  Now thinking of Lu Jinghangs expression at that time, Huaiyu felt that this kid was probably extremely regretful after her death, so now he is making up for the regrets in every way.

  Its true, people dont know what they have until its gone.

  She sighed and handed Lingxiu a set of headdress and a hairpin: "Your young lady is well-behaved, she doesnt steal or rob, you can rest assured."

  This remark was obviously unconvincing, and with a worried frown, she still followed his words to tidy up her hair bun and put on her accessories.

  The fourth miss of the Bai family, who was like a fallen aristocrat, was dressed up and instantly transformed into a noble princess.

  Looking at the person in the mirror, Huai Yu was still somewhat satisfied. He stood up and pulled Ling Xiu out with him.

  At the hour of Mao, Bai Dezhong had already taken Bai Xueqi onto the carriage. Li Huaiyu and Lingxiu hid at the corner outside the courtyard wall, waiting until the carriage drove out of the official road before standing up.

  "Miss." Lingxiu asked hesitantly, "Have you thought of how to go to Jiangfu?"

  "What else can we do?" Huaiyu smiled and said, "Lets hitch a ride with someone going in our direction."

  "What you said is not that." Ling Xiu shook her head, "The Jiang manors guards are already strict, and it just so happens to be Young Master Jiangs birthday banquet. Guests entering and exiting must have an invitation card. You managed to sneak in with the carriage, but you cant sneak in without an invitation card. An unnamed person on the card wont be able to get in."

  As soon as she heard this, Huai Yu was stunned: "Why didnt you say so earlier?"

  "...only then did he realize his shock at Misss attire and hadnt thought of this possibility."

  Lingxiu sighed, pinched the handkerchief and said in a low voice: "Actually, I regretted it as soon as you left last night. I shouldnt have made it difficult for Master like that. If we cant go, then so be it. As long as Master is fine, our days will pass too."

  Li Huaiyu turned around and looked at her.

  This little girl is clearly taking this matter very seriously, and now shes comforting her, with a red nose tip and firm eyes.

  She sighed and was about to say something when she caught a glimpse of someone walking over from a distance out of the corner of her eye.

  "That person......" He squinted and took a glance, then nudged Hua Yu with his mouth, saying "Take a look, isnt there an embroidered Jiang character on his chest?"

  Following her gaze, Lingxiu nodded: "Its a house slave from the Jiang Manor."

  Her eyes lit up and Hua Yu pushed her out: "Take advantage of him before he reaches the main gate, go and get familiar with him."

  Ling Xiu was shocked: "What is this Su Jue doing?"

  "Youre stupid." Huai Yu stamped her foot, "You go and try to get his attention, Ill sneak up from behind and knock him out, then strip off his clothes. We can use them to disguise ourselves and sneak into the Jiang manor!"

  Scared out of her wits, Ling Xiu shook her head like a rattle drum: "This wont do! Its absolutely not okay!"

  "Oh dear, stop nagging, with your familys young lady around Im here, hurry up!" She pushed her out forcefully and hid in the shadows, waiting for an opportunity to act.

  Ling Xiu stood stiffly in the middle of the road.

  That slave was holding something in his hand and walking hastily. From a distance, he saw Lingxiu and came up with a delighted face: "Is it the maid of the White House?"

  It is.

  "Can you recognize Fourth Miss?"

  "I know, Im just serving her."

  That slave let out a huge sigh of relief and handed over the thing in his hand with a smile: "This is what our young master specially sent to Miss Bai Si..."

  Post.

  The last word couldnt be spoken, and the family slave only felt a "thud" on the back of his neck, followed by a blackness in front of his eyes.

  Li Huaiyu blew on her own hand and looked at Ling Xiu with great satisfaction: "Hows that? Am I awesome?"

  Ling Xiu: *no response*

  "Hmm? Why are you making that face?" Lowering her head to take a look at what she was holding, Huai Yu raised an eyebrow, "Whats this?"
