Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower-Chapter 591 This Girl Looks so Familiar

"My husband is the current Minister of Rites. Thank you, young people, for lending a hand," said the frail gentleman’s wife on behalf of her husband.

Bai Junjun slightly raised her eyebrows. The Minister of Rites?

She was familiar with that.

The Qionglin Banquet and even the memorial rituals were all managed by the Ministry of Rites.

The Lady of the Minister of Rites was also quite an important figure in the circle of noble ladies since she held many gossips and was considered the source of gossip in the Imperial Capital.

However, due to this connection, Bai Junjun’s mother did not like the Lady of the Minister of Rites and rarely interacted with her.

The Lady of the Minister of Rites took a look at Bai Junjun, but that look surprised her: "You... you..."

She found Bai Junjun very familiar, after all, how many could have such a face, such a petite face in the Imperial Capital? She would recognize it even if it were turned to ashes.

The Lady of the Minister of Rites subconsciously was about to call out Bai Junjun’s name, but the next second, she was stunned.

Bai Junjun... wasn’t she dead?

She glanced at Bai Junjun’s feet, there was a shadow.

Only then did the Lady of the Minister of Rites breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking up at Bai Junjun again, she realized that although the girl looked a lot like Bai Junjun, she was ultimately different.

To be precise, it was the demeanor and the eyes that were different – this demeanor was even more clear-cut, and the eyes sharper.

Compared to the first Noble Lady full of arrogance, the girl in front of her was undeniably more pleasant to look at.

"You are..."

The Lady of the Minister of Rites was still about to confirm Bai Junjun’s identity when the Minister of Rites finally recovered from his shock.

Seeing his wife’s old habit acting up again, and starting to question the identity of a stranger to the bitter end, the Minister of Rites touched his chest and sighed, "Is this the time to ask about someone’s background? Speaking of which, how are we going to deal with that nest of Green Snakes, if we don’t get rid of them, won’t it be impossible to collect my father’s bones? Right, who was bitten just now? Can someone go check on the situation?"

The Minister of Rites was speaking to his own servants, but there was silence from the servants who had come along, no one responded.

Bai Junjun also gathered the context from this brief conversation.

In Baiju Country, every region had different funeral customs. In the Imperial Capital, after someone died, they would first be buried, and then three years later the bones would be picked up to be placed in a jar.

Because the flesh would decay over time leaving bones intact, if not relocated, the bones would turn black and rot, which was considered bad for the descendants.

The Minister of Rites happened to be picking bones for his own father, but upon opening the coffin, a nest of Green Snakes swarmed out.

Caught off guard, they scattered in fear from the Green Snakes, and then they ran into Bai Junjun and her group.

"Whoever resolves this issue will receive a Reward Silver of one hundred taels!" the Minister of Rites said through clenched teeth.

As soon as the amount of one hundred taels was mentioned, many were already eager to act, but due to the terrifying sight of the nest of Green Snakes entangled together, everyone paused yet again.

"I’ll go take a look."

As people hesitated, a clear female voice rang out.

"You?" The Minister of Rites now took a serious look at the girl before him.

What was this girl saying? She wanted to go take a look?

The Minister of Rites shook his head instinctively: "No, that’s nonsense. As a girl, if you get bitten by a snake, who will be responsible?"

"I will be responsible for myself," Bai Junjun said with a slight smile, "as long as you honor the one hundred taels promise. Not to mention the Green Snake Nest, even a Boa nest would be no problem."

At the mention of Boa, those fortunate enough to have seen one, including Ah Dao, involuntarily shivered. How terrifying!
