Chu Luan woke up and found herself in a small thatched hut, covered with a quilt that was not too thick. The scent of medicinal herbs lingered in the snort. She lifted the quilt and found that her clothes had been changed and her jewelry was gone. She got out of bed and pushed open the door, and there was a small courtyard that was not larger than the bedroom in her palace, although the courtyard was small, it was quite clean. There were three huts in there, and she had just come out of the smallest one. There was also a small mound in front of the house, on which a pot of medicine was boiled.

Chu Luan picked up the handkerchief on the side and was about to open the medicine furnace, when a woman's voice appeared behind him, "Do you know how expensive my medicine is, don't touch it if it's okay!" ”

Chu Luan turned around and found that he was no more than thirty years old...... The woman, wearing her dress, had her hair in a loose bun on her head, and her hair ornaments were casually inserted on her head. I don't know what was wiped on my face, it was red, not only was it not beautiful, but it was also a little funny. The expression on his face can be called fierce.

Seeing Chu Luan staring at herself, the woman also unceremoniously straightened her chest and glared back, "Look at what!" Auntie, I spent so much effort to save you, and it is not too much to charge you a little consultation fee. ”

Chu Luan looked at the plantain, licorice, and thyme that were about to dry in the medicine furnace, and he didn't debunk it very shamefully. Just stared at the eight-treasure hairpin on her head, and said expressionlessly, "I can give you the rest, but please return the eight-treasure hairpin to me." ”

Chu Luan's hair ornaments have always been plain, and there are few such pure gold ones, and the woman quickly guessed which one it was, but she didn't have the slightest intention of returning it to Chu Luan, "What?" I wasted so much effort to get you back, and I was curing the disease, changing clothes and feeding medicine, and these things are worth less than half of the cost for me? ”

Chu Luan had seen unreasonable people before, but it was rare to blackmail her with his eyes open like this.

"That hairpin is very important to me." Chu Luan patiently ran out, stretched out his hand and asked her, "You give it back to me, I can give you money." ”

But the woman didn't believe it, "Look at you, you are so richly dressed, you look like a rich man, but you faint on the side of the road alone." Either the unfavored concubine was squeezed by the mother-in-law at home, or she eloped with her lover and was abandoned, so she could go back and get the money for me? Then tell me, whose daughter are you, and how can I get it? ”

Chu Luan will really be in trouble, she can neither go to Murong Jin nor return to the capital now, and she really has no money for this woman.

Seeing that Chu Luan didn't reply, the woman's arrogance became even more arrogant, "Can't you answer?" She weighed the eight-treasure hairpin in her hand and discussed, "I won't bully you, so you give it to me...... Twenty taels! As long as you take it out now, I'll give it back to you, what? ”

The golden hairpin was given to Chu Luan by Xuan Jun, and it was worth fifty taels to say the least, this woman only needs twenty taels, it seems that her location here is relatively remote, and Mr. Chang's people should not be able to find it here for a while.

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, Chu Luan's whole body has been searched by the woman in front of her, I am afraid that it is a child......

Chu Luan suddenly thought of something, and touched the back of his head to make sure that the red rope with pearls was still there.

"If you give me a little time, I will give you twenty taels of silver, but until then, you can't sell this golden hairpin."

"Don't worry, I'm not an unreasonable person, as long as you give me twenty taels of silver, I will return the golden hairpin to you immediately."

Chu Luan went into the house and walked around, and found his wristband, the silver threads and fine needles in it were all there, it seemed that although this person loved money, he also knew what not to touch. She fastened the wristband around her left wrist and was about to leave.

"In two days I will come to ransom the golden hairpin, and until then, you must not sell it." Before leaving, Chu Luan still reminded, "You'd better not show this dress in front of others, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”

Jinwu looked at the gorgeous clothes on her body and was very disdainful, she was not so stupid.

Chu Luan's health was not yet well, and he felt tired after walking not far. If you can continue to live in Jinwu, you can also have a place to live. It's a pity that she is penniless now, and if she continues to live, I am afraid that the pearl on the red rope will not be able to keep it.

Now that she is outside the city, Mr. Chang's people should not be able to find her for a while, so she should first find a way to make up twenty taels of silver.

On the other side, as soon as Chu Luan left with his front foot, many people came to Jinwu's house.

The dress on Jinwu's body has been changed, and the makeup on her face has been washed off, but the jewelry on her head has not yet had time to be removed. The delicate hairpin flower contrasts sharply with the plain Mai, making it hard not to notice.

The man on the other side had curly hair, sharp eyes, and always spoke with a bit of arrogance, "This eldest sister, we are merchants from Yeli Kingdom, and we didn't meet bandits on the way, and intercepted our goods, and our servants were also separated, and the pass token was also on them. I wonder if the eldest sister can let us stay here for a while while they meet us? ”

Jinwu looked at a few people, this man was born tall, he really didn't look like a Yongguo person, there was a woman next to him, richly dressed, with a veil, he couldn't see his face clearly, but just by looking at his temperament, he could guess that under the veil should be a face that was alluring to the country and the city. Their entourage was also five big and three thick, and it was quite terrifying to look at.

"It's not impossible for you to live here, but there are so many of you, you can't occupy my house for nothing."

Alchi smiled and nodded, took out a gold ingot and shook it in front of Jinwu, who immediately took it, for fear that the other party would regret it a second later.

"Everyone, please feel free."

Ah Quercus returned the salute to Jinwu, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the eight-treasure hairpin on her head, and was secretly shocked, isn't that Ah Luan's golden hairpin? What's in her hands, is it...... Has Luan been here?

She was afraid of Alchi, and did not ask in person, but only hid her thoughts and interrogated them carefully when she found a good time.

At night, Jinwu hid all the treasures he got into his small box, and looked at the box that was occupied by most of the space after a while, and was very happy, "These two days are really lucky." After speaking, he saw the eight-treasure hairpin left by Chu Luan, took it out and held it in his hand, and whispered, "The girl said that she would take the silver to redeem it in two days, did she decide to go home?" Otherwise, she really couldn't think of any other way for Chu Luan to get twenty taels of silver.

A knock on the door interrupted Jinwu's thoughts, and she quickly hid the wooden box in the futon, and asked Xunsheng, "Who?" ”

Quercus Quinoa's voice sounded, "Sister Jinwu, have you slept?" I have something I want to ask you about. ”

"Come in."

Oak Quinoa came to Jinwu alone, and after she entered the house, she didn't wait for the other party to ask, and took the initiative to confess her intentions, "Sister Jinwu, I saw you wearing an eight-treasure hairpin on your head today, which is my old friend's thing, have you ever seen her?" ”

Jin Wu was shocked, he really got into trouble, he knew that this was the case, he shouldn't be greedy for this money, and return the hairpin to Chu Luan.

She was impassive and pretended to be confused, "What the girl said, I don't understand." ”

Ah Liqu firmly believed that Jinwu knew Chu Luan's whereabouts, and she grabbed Jinwu's hand and pleaded, "Sister Jinwu, that person is very important to me, please be sure to tell me where she is." ”

Jinwu still waved his hand and said that he didn't know anything.

No, Quercus had to take out another ingot of gold from her purse, "If you can tell me the whereabouts of Luan, this is yours." ”

Jinwu was fascinated by the gold, swallowed her saliva, and began to convince herself: This girl is so cute, and she can answer Chu Luan's name, thinking that the two should be friends rather than enemies, it is better to say it.

She took the ingot of gold and replied, "The man you spoke of was gone before you came." ”

"Where did she go?" Quercus said urgently.

"I don't know." Jinwu waved her hand, "I picked her up on the side of the road two days ago, and I saw that she looked like the daughter of a big family, so I rescued her and asked for a reward." As a result, she seemed to have escaped from home, penniless, leaving only some jewelry to cover my medicine money for the past few days. ”

Two days ago, Ah Liqu and Alchi also received a flying pigeon message from Mr. Chang, saying that Chu Luan had defected, and it turned out that she had left the city.

In the past few days, Ah Liqua has been worried that Chu Luan will be found by her brother or Mr. Chang's people, but now that Chu Luan is still fine, she is also much more relieved.

But Chu Luan has been wandering outside, and it is not a way, not to mention that her brother will not let her go, and now neither Mr. Chang nor Murong Jin can tolerate her. Sooner or later, something will happen to her alone.

Quercus asked if there was any way to find her.

Jinwu took out the eight-treasure hairpin, "She said that she would come to redeem this hairpin in two days." ”

Chu Luan is penniless now, how can she redeem this hairpin?

Quercus didn't think about it, and she had to take money out of her purse, "How much do you want to give me this hairpin?" ”

Jinwu refused, although she loves money, but she also talks about faith, how can she sell this hairpin to others at will?

"When the man left, he told me not to dispose of this hairpin at will.

"I only have one hundred taels left, is it enough to buy this hairpin?" Quercus took out the money and spread it out in his hands.

Jinwu's face changed suddenly, her eyes seemed to glow, and she nodded again and again, "Since you are friends, it is okay to help her buy this hairpin." ”

Ah Liquis got the Eight Treasure Hairpins as he wished, and asked how Jinwu would contact Chu Luan at that time.

"She didn't say anything, she thought she would come to my house to look for me."

Oak looked at the eight-treasure hairpin in her hand and secretly calculated.
