Rebirth: The Journey of an Heiress

Chapter 692: Chapter 689: Bothering_1

Mrs. Dong clutched the sheepskin map to her chest, nodding vigorously, crying and laughing, “Mother understands! Mother understands! As long as A Yu is alive, that’s all that matters! Nothing is better than A Yu being alive!”

Bai Qingyan nodded, “The map is still useful for me; I fear I cannot leave it with Mother…”

It was not that it couldn’t be copied down, but… Bai Qingyan did not want any unexpected complications. If her mother saw the map every day, thinking of A Yu, it might attract unwanted attention. It wasn’t that Bai Qingyan didn’t trust the loyal servants around Mrs. Dong, but the fewer people who knew, the better.

Mrs. Dong nodded, “As long as I know A Yu is alive, I am satisfied!”

Mrs. Dong lowered her head, repeatedly looking at the map in her hands. She pressed the map against her chest, sobbing softly, unsure whether to feel joy or sorrow. She did not know where A Yu was injured after surviving, whether A Yu had enough to eat, or whether she was warm enough.

“Mother, don’t worry. Now A Yu holds a respectable position in Nanrong. The last time we met on the battlefield… A Yu appeared strong, riding a horse and shooting arrows powerfully. Mother need not worry too much!” Bai Qingyan comforted Mrs. Dong.
