When they arrived at Fushou Hall, the elders were gathered in the main hall, chatting, so Lu Jinglan pulled Zhi Wan and Lu Lan into her room.
"It's not convenient to shop near Jiuhua Temple, so I didn't bring you any other gifts. However, I did pray for peace charms for you both," Lu Jinglan said, giving the two charms to them.
"Thank you, Little Aunt," Lu Lan said with a grateful expression.
Lu Jinglan patted her on the head like an elder. "As long as you're not disappointed."
"Thank you, Jinglan," Zhi Wan added her thanks.
"Wan'er, you should call me Sister Jinglan. I am, after all, two years your senior," Lu Jinglan said with a beaming smile.
"But didn't you want me to call you 'Aunt' just a moment ago?" Zhi Wan asked with a look of surprise.
"If you really called me 'Aunt,' you'd make me sound old," Lu Jinglan said helplessly.
"But Lu Lan calls you 'Aunt,' doesn't she? And according to seniority, my cousin should also call you 'Aunt'," Zhi Wan replied earnestly.
