No one knew what Bai Ruozhu had said to Bai Yihong, but Bai Yihong's listlessness evaporated, and there was joy on his face. When Lin Ping'er asked him, he pretended to be secretive and said, "My daughter asked me to keep it a secret."
Lin Ping'er rolled her eyes at him, muttering, "Now you're trying to play the mysterious card with me, as if I care to know." Although she complained out loud, a smile appeared on her face, clearly happy that Bai Yihong was in a better mood.
Afterward, Bai Ruozhu went to the room of Zhang Liliang and his wife. Zhang's wife was still confined to bed and had been anxious inside the room. When she saw Bai Ruozhu, she exclaimed with joy, "Ruozhu, you look even prettier after a trip outside, like a young lady from a noble family."
Zhang Liliang laughed from the side and said, "Zepei is sure to become an officer in the future, so won't Ruozhu become a young lady from an officer's family?"
