Chapter 31
Aunt Wu thought that Ai Lan would refuse for a while, but she didn't expect that Ai Lan's reaction was really unruly, so the disgust in her heart became even worse, and she could hardly hold the smile on her face, and finally said: "Now four The young master is well, Erlan, from now on you can go back to your original yard as an errand! Besides, although there are rules in the mansion, first, second and third class maidservants wear the same outer dresses, but the middle clothes they wear inside are fine. To change into some tricks, I had someone prepare two sets of crescent-white satin tunics for you that only first-class maidservants can wear, which is my kindness, Mother Jiang!"

Hearing Aunt Wu's voice, Mother Jiang came in with a small blue silk bundle, and handed the bundle to Ai Lan.

Ai Lan took it without hesitation, and thanked Aunt Wu again, with a rare happy smile on her face. In the eyes of outsiders, she was completely overjoyed because of the reward.

The smile on Aunt Wu's face deepened.

When Ailan came here, she only brought a small bag with a change of clothes in it. Now that she has returned, she not only received a few taels of silver as a reward, but also had two sets of high-quality middle clothes. Not to mention the clothes, just the few taels The silver was her monthly allowance for a third-class maidservant for nearly a year, and the servants who vaguely guessed how much silver Ai Lan had won couldn't help but feel a little jealous.

When Ai Lan returned to her residence in Dazayuan, Huaihua and Zaohua were planning to go to the kitchen for breakfast.

The wound on Zaohua's back has healed and scabbed, and it is estimated that the scab will be removed in a few days.When Zaohua saw Ai Lan appear, she was stunned for a moment, her tears couldn't stop like broken beads, and it took her a long time to choke up and call out: "Erlan..."

Huaihua squinted her eyes and twitched as she watched from the side, interrupting what Zaohua wanted to say angrily: "Okay, okay, Erlan knows you want to thank her for saving her life, it's important to have breakfast right now, hurry up click away!"

Zaohua was pushed by Sophora Sophorae to walk outside, turning her head to look at Ai Lan while walking.

Sophora Huai said: "You go and help us get a seat first, I have something to say to Erlan!" After saying that, she closed the door, Zaohua stared blankly at the door, and walked towards the kitchen without thinking much go.

As soon as Zaohua left, Huaihua lowered her voice and asked Ai Lan, "What do you want to say to me?" Ai Lan took a look at her just now, as if she had something to discuss with her. stayed.

Ai Lan smiled slightly: "Sister Huaihua really has a delicate mind!"

Huaihua curled her mouth and said angrily, "Stop flattering me, tell me, what's the matter?"

Ai Lan walked to the bunk, and untied the royal blue silk bundle in her hand, revealing two new sets of moon-white silk gowns inside, which were soft and slippery to the touch, as a first-class maid can do. clothes to put on.

"Hey, this is a reward from Aunt Wu, it's quite generous!" Sophora pagoda patted and patted fondly.

Ai Lan smiled and said, "If Sister Huaihua likes it, you can wear both sets. This size is too big for me."

Sophora japonica trembled excitedly: "Really?"

Ai Lan nodded, climbed onto the bunk and sat down, her two short legs dangling back and forth.

"Ah, it's really great!" Huaihua couldn't help but grabbed a set of middle clothes and gestured on her body. Suddenly, a red gold pearl-embedded coral bat flower hairpin came into view so brightly and goldenly, Huaihua Stunned on the spot, the shirt in his hand slipped to the ground involuntarily.

Such a golden hairpin is of course very valuable. It can be said that getting this hairpin is enough for an ordinary family to eat and drink for a lifetime.

Huaihua was frightened when she saw this hairpin. Although she usually likes to be cheap, this hairpin is not something that a third-class maid like Ai Lan can have.

"This, is this...a gift from Aunt Wu?" Huaihua asked stammeringly.

Ai Lan continued to shake her short legs, and said with a sarcastic smile, "Do you think it's possible?"

Huaihua shook her head resolutely, and suddenly her eyes widened: "She, she wants to..."

"It's just what you think." Ai Lan said, "This hairpin was given to Aunt Wu by Master Hou a month ago. Aunt Wu likes it very much. In order to save my life, I put together a priceless hairpin. , Aunt Wu is willing to spend all her money this time."

"Since you know everything, why don't you come up with a solution?" Seeing Ai Lan's indifferent appearance, Huaihua was about to go crazy. Could it be that the child broke the jar because he felt completely desperate?

Ai Lan's expression was still calm, but Huai Hua paced back and forth anxiously in the room, suddenly raised her head and said: "Then let's quickly hide this hairpin where they can't find it, and it will rot in our stomachs from now on? Yes, that's it Do, I have to think about where to hide..."

Seeing Huaihua running around in a hurry like a headless fly, Ai Lan suddenly found it funny. Huaihua may be a little selfish and treacherous, but she is very smart, and her conscience has not been completely wiped out, so she will not do anything harmful. It looks kind of cute now.

"There's no need to hide. They're heading this way right now. If I'm not mistaken, they've already reached the gate of the courtyard."

"Ah? So what should I do?" Huai Hua grabbed her hair with both hands, looking at Ai Lan in despair.

Ailan took a deep breath, jumped down from the common bunk, and smiled at Huaihua: "Sister Huaihua, if they ask later, just say you don't know, and leave the rest to me."

Huaihua nodded in a daze, watching Ai Lan put the golden hairpin into her sleeve, and then neatly folded the middle clothes according to the original shape, even the knots of the burden were the same as before. It looked as if it had never been moved, and finally stuffed the baggage into his closet and locked it.

After tidying up, Ai Lan said: "Come on, Sister Huaihua, come with me to meet them."
