The two were naturally dissatisfied; they wanted to know everything at once so they could prepare accordingly.
Just as Qiao Lian'er was about to speak, Qiao Chaoheng gently shook his head at her.
“Brother Song, as you say,” Qiao Chaoheng said.
The brother and sister left Tianxiang Tower and had the coachman drive the carriage to the county town.
“Brother, that Qiao Lian’er probably only has this one birthmark. We don’t need to see Song Rui’er anymore. She’s so young and has so many thoughts. What if she tries to trick us and we don’t even know it?” Qiao Lian’er said.
“Sister, you want to be like a person, not just in terms of these physical characteristics, but also in terms of her personality and habits.”
“As his own brother, Song Ruier knows better than anyone else,” Qiao Chaoheng said calmly. “Be patient. The capital is far away, and the rewards won’t arrive here so quickly. We still have time.”
"Ideally, everything would be foolproof."
When Qiao Lian'er returned from the county town, her face was a little pale, as if she was in some kind of pain. The carriage curtains were drawn tightly, and no one could see what was happening inside.
Lu Sheng hurriedly slipped into the Qiao family's courtyard and reported everything that had happened that day.
That day, after deciding to burn a scar on her leg, Qiao Lian'er asked Brother Dayong to let her serve Lu Sheng first.
Lu Sheng was well-trained by Brother Dayong and was wholeheartedly loyal to Brother Dayong.
Moreover, he was slender and skilled in martial arts, which made it convenient for him to get things done.
Early in the morning, he followed the Qiao siblings from the east end of the village to Qingshui Town, and then to the county seat, all without making a sound.
Qiao Lian'er remained calm after hearing this; she had anticipated this process.
After imitating her characteristics, the next step should be to learn her habits.
The other party wants to be just like her, and they're not afraid of being the same. When the time comes, the Qiao family in the east of the village has connections in the capital, and they'll use that to suppress her, confuse right and wrong, and steal her credit.
She asked Qiao Yunni, "Mom, was the butterfly birthmark on my right shoulder reported when I registered my household?"
"Yes, it's a requirement. We'll write it down if there are any, so it's easy to identify," Qiao Yunni said.
A few days later, Qiao Lian'er made another special trip to the county government.
Lord Zhang still received her in the main hall.
It seems that Lord Zhang is not in good spirits. These past few days, thinking about the two Qiao Lian'ers has made him feel increasingly anxious. He has even lost his appetite and has been praying to the Buddha several times, even before going to bed.
Qiao Lian'er stated her purpose directly.
"Lord Zhang, when the Qiao family registered my household, they also recorded my physical characteristics, but they made a mistake. I would like to correct it."
Lord Zhang's eyelids twitched: "How did you get it wrong?"
"My household registration records show that I have a butterfly-shaped light red birthmark on my right shoulder, but I don't actually have one. However, I have a small burn on my left leg near my knee."
Lord Zhang felt a chill run down his spine and dared not think too much about it. He said, "It can be modified, but before that, the nanny must examine the body."
"A physical examination is definitely required."
Qiao Lian'er was led to a separate room, behind a screen on all four sides, and the nanny in charge of the physical examination followed her in.
After checking Qiao Lian'er's right shoulder, there was indeed no butterfly birthmark. Then, after looking at her left leg, there was a burn mark.
The nanny then went to report to Lord Zhang.
Qiao Lian'er finished dressing. In fact, her butterfly birthmark had faded to some extent, but it hadn't disappeared. She had just applied concealer and skin-toned setting powder, so it wasn't noticeable.
