Jing Lan came out from the back door of the Shen family's other courtyard with ten taels of silver in her pocket, and headed for the Lin family in Qingxi Village.

Both sides of the road are covered with light green tender grass, like green blankets of different sizes, covering the mountains and fields as far as she can see.

The morning sun is rising slowly, and the dew on the mulberry trees beside the road that have only grown mulberry leaves like little fingers, is illuminated by the sun, emitting a little bit of broken light.

The fresh and unique field atmosphere mixed with soil and grass blades is everywhere, and it goes straight to Jing Lan's nose regardless.

Taking a deep sniff of the smell she was already familiar with and liked, she looked around greedily while walking slowly.

Shen Wan gave her one day, and she only needed to go back to Shen's other courtyard before the sun went down.When she went back to Lin's house, Shen Wan didn't even send anyone to accompany her. She said it was to accompany her, but in fact it should be monitoring.When Shen Wan didn't call anyone to accompany her back to Lin's house, many people around Shen Wan couldn't help asking, is it appropriate to let Jinglan go back like this?What if Jing Lan ran away?

An Chun said that there are some people who are not afraid of disaster at home and only care about their own. If Jing Lan does this, the master will suffer a loss.

"No, if An Lan really only cared about herself, she wouldn't care about her younger brother and the children from the next door family, and would never agree to be a slave to the Shen family. Besides, I treat her well, and she doesn't care too much. He will do stupid things like running away." Shen Wan said confidently.

She told An Chun and the others not to worry, they continued to settle the unfinished accounts, and they were going back to Xiao's house in Jinling tomorrow.

Originally, Shen Wan planned to stay for two more days before going back, but thinking that the child in her stomach was growing up day by day, she had to make up with Xiao Yulang before the Xiao family found out that she was pregnant, time was precious.So she hastened to settle the accounts in the past two days, and she didn't see Jing Lan to be distracted yesterday, and today Jing Lan went back to Lin's house, so she happened to concentrate on settling the rest of the accounts.She had estimated it, and she could finish it today by hurrying up.

An Chun and An Dong stopped talking, but calculated the remaining unfinished accounts according to Shen Wan's request.

When Jing Lan walked home slowly, it wasn't that she didn't think about running away.But after thinking about it for a while, she felt that if she ran away, she would be doing something stupid.Let's not talk about whether she has failed Shen Wan's trust, just say that at her age, another girl can escape there.It was easy to run away, but after she ran out, she had no legal status and no means of making a living, so how could she survive.

What's more, she is a time traveler who has only been through for half a year, and the farthest place she went to was the Qixia Temple that she went with Shen Wan yesterday.She was blinded by the situation outside, and if she really wanted to escape, she reckoned that she would definitely encounter a lot of danger and it would be very miserable.Also, she signed a contract of sale with Shen Wan. If she escapes, she will be a fugitive slave and will be hunted down.As for the Lin family, they will also be implicated in their escape.

In a word, fleeing under such circumstances for the sake of freedom is a stupid thing to do, and the loss outweighs the gain.

You can't do things that don't pay off, it's better to be Shen Wan's maid honestly.Not to mention food and clothing, but also a high salary, and seeing that pleasing ice and snow beauty every day, this is also a very good benefit for Jing Lan, who is a sex lover.

After making a comprehensive comparison, she decided to go home for a day, and when the sun went down, she would go back to Shen's other courtyard to continue her career as a maid.

When Jing Lan appeared in the Lin family's yard, Lin Jingshan and Lin Jingguo who were playing in the yard rushed over to hug her, shouting excitedly: "Sister is back!"

Jinglan's grandmother Gao and her mother Xie who were in the house ran out when they heard the two children yelling outside.

When they saw Jing Lan standing in the yard hugged by A-Shan and A-Guo, the first feeling was whether this was a dream, and the second feeling was that it was real, and then they wept.

The two women ran towards Jinglan with tears in their eyes and hugged her together. They embraced Ah Shan and Ah Guo who were hugging Jing Lan excitedly.

"Alan, Alan..." They called out Jinglan's name and hugged her tightly, as if they were afraid that if they let go, Jinglan would disappear, "Is it you, are we not dreaming?"

"Auntie, Auntie, it's me, I'm back to see you." Jing Lan choked up.

Although she has only been Lin Jinglan for half a year, after getting along with the Lin family, she has developed feelings. Seeing the excitement of the people around her now, she will inevitably be infected.

"Alan, when you come back, why is there no one from the Shen family following you?" After being excited, Xie let go of Jing Lan, looked behind Jing Lan and asked nervously, she was worried that Jing Lan had escaped from the Shen family's other courtyard.

When Mrs. Xie asked, Mrs. Gao also became nervous, and looked behind Jing Lan.

Jing Lan told them that she didn't flee back, but because she was going to Xiao's house in Jinling City with her aunt Shen, so her master let her come back to visit her family, because going to Jinling City would require It's not easy to come back to see the family.

"So that's how it is." Xie and Gao said together in relief, and then said that the eldest aunt of the Shen family was really relieved that no one from the Shen family would be sent to follow Jing Lan, and she really trusted Jing Lan.

"The aunt of the Shen family is very kind to me. She believes that I will not run away. Grandma, grandma, let's go into the house and talk."

"Okay, let's go in and talk."

Mrs. Gao and Mrs. Xie held Jing Lan's hand, and the three went into the house.

Lin Jingshan and Lin Jingguo stopped playing outside and hurried into the house.

After entering the house, Jing Lan didn't see her cheap father, so she asked Mrs. Xie, "Where is father?"

Mrs. Xie said that he went to the field to look at the seedlings that he had just picked up, and every day he had to go around the field before returning, and he had just gone out not long ago, otherwise she would have asked Ah Shan to call her father back.

Jing Lan recalled that that day, in order to keep Ah Shan and the land of the Lin family, her father did not hesitate to make herself a servant girl for Shen Wan, so she said no, anyway, she would stay at home for a whole day today, and her father would come to him during lunch. Will be back, see you too.

Hearing what her daughter said, Mrs. Xie knew that she was thinking about the fact that her husband left her to keep Ah Shan that day.

When she remembered what happened that day, she often cried when she thought about it later, and she also thought that her husband was a little cruel.

However, facing her daughter, she still wanted to persuade Jing Lan not to care about her father, no matter what, he was also her father.

Jing Lan was unhappy, but facing the few relatives in front of her who were good to her, she didn't go any further, and said that she didn't care.

Mrs. Gao and others asked Jinglan if she hadn't suffered from being a maid in Shen's other courtyard these days, especially Mrs. Xie worriedly asked her if she had been bullied. If so, if she had to tell the truth, she would not For this fate, Jing Lan must also seek justice.

"There is no such thing. My child can eat and sleep well in Shen's other courtyard, and no one bullies me. Don't worry. In fact, after entering Shen's other courtyard as a maid, I have food and clothing, and the work is not heavy. Only then did I realize that this is not bad. Anyway, it’s not a death contract, and after eight years, I can be a good citizen again.”

"Alan, you are telling the truth, you didn't lie to your mother, did you?"

"Really, aunt, granny, look, this is given to me by the aunt of the Shen family. She said it was half a year's wages given to me in advance." Jing Lan took the two ingots of five taels of silver out of her sleeve. , showed them in his hand, and said with a smile, "Ten taels of silver."

Both the Gao family and the Xie family hadn't seen the ten taels of silver with white flowers for many years. It seemed that since Jing Lan's grandfather's prodigal family, the Lin family hadn't seen the whole ingot of silver since the Lin family moved to Qingxi Village.Ten taels of silver is definitely a huge sum of money for the current Lin family.

"Grandmother, grandma, you take this silver. With this silver, the family will be able to survive the disaster year." Jing Lan took the two ingots of silver in her hand and handed them to the two.

Gao and Xie wept with joy and said that with the money, they could buy food and go home, and the family would no longer be hungry.

When Lin Jingshan and Lin Jingguo heard what their grandmother and mother said, they all stared at the silver in their hands, their faces beaming with joy.

The two brothers and sisters had never seen silver, so they were very curious that the shiny silver-white things in the hands of Mrs. Gao and Mrs. Xie could be exchanged for a lot of food.

With the money in hand, Mrs. Xie made a fuss about making a good meal for Jing Lan, because Jing Lan was leaving Qingxi Village for Jinling City after eating this lunch at home, and she didn't know when she would come back again. see daughter.

She asked Jing Lan to stay at home with her grandmother and younger sister. She took her son Ashan to Fozu Town to buy rice, meat and fish, and came back to cook a delicious meal for Jing Lan.

Jing Lan didn't stop Xie, because she felt that it was only right and proper to cook a delicious meal for her at home. After all, she exchanged the loss of freedom for Ah Shan to return home safely from being punished, and now to give back to her grandmother. There are twelve taels of silver from my mother.

Mrs. Gao was going to pack and change Jing Lan's clothes and take them away, but Jing Lan told her that there was no need, because the Shen family took care of clothing, food, from inside to outside, from top to bottom.

Hearing what Jing Lan said, Gao had no choice but to give up, she took Jing Lan's hand to sit down, and carefully asked her about her experience in the Shen family's other courtyard in the past two days.

Of course, Jing Lan picked it up and said it well, but it was just to reassure the old man.

The two were talking, and Lin Jingshan came over with Geng Hu from the next door. When Geng Hu saw Jing Lan's eyes lit up, he smiled at first, and then walked closer and told Jing Lan that he heard from Ah Shan that Jing Lan was going home Visiting relatives, just come over.

Jing Lan didn't like Geng Hu, so she used words to drive him away: "You have seen it, you can go back, I have a lot to talk to my grandma. Ah Shan, take your brother Ah Hu out to play."

Geng Hu awkwardly scratched his head and said, "I'm leaving now. You don't have to chase me away. I heard that you are going to Jinling City with that young lady from the Shen family. I came here to tell you, don't worry. I will protect Ashan and Aguo, and prevent those dolls in the village from bullying them. Also, my parents will also help your family get through the difficulties, don't worry."

It turned out that after Jinglan gave the money to grandmother and mother, Gao and Xie confessed to Ashan and Aguo, and they were not allowed to say that Jinglan took the money from the family.If anyone speaks out, the money will be taken away by God, and the family will starve again.

When the two children heard this, they quickly said that they would never speak out.Therefore, when Ah Shan met Geng Hu when he went out, he didn't tell him about the elder sister's return home and took the money for the family. This is what Geng Hu said later.

"Alan? When did you come back? Did you escape from the Shen family?" Jing Lan's father came back at some point, entered the house, and when he saw Jing Lan, he immediately asked her angrily.
