Yao Ruoxi moved the hand behind his back forward, it was a basket, the lotus step was lightly moved, and after being placed on the table, he opened it, and suddenly the smell of meat came out, filling the whole room.

"Goodong", the sound of swallowing saliva suddenly came from Xiaohu.

A few plates of delicious food that could not be seen were taken out by Yao Ruoxi one by one, and at the bottom of the basket, there were even three bottles of wine hidden.

"This is a treasure brought back by the second uncle from another country, and it can't be eaten in my Tianxiang country, so come and taste it. ”

Yao Ruoxi was about to open a bottle of wine as she spoke, but was stopped by Du Fan.

"How old are you, what kind of alcohol you drink, and you're not afraid of hurting your brain. ”

"I'm thirteen years old, why can't I drink? This wine is a treasure I stole from my father's wine cellar, don't you want to taste it?" Yao Ruoxi first protested dissatisfiedly, and then her dark eyes rolled, and she said so.

"If that's the case, then I can taste one or two, but you still can't drink it. Du Fan's expression moved, and before he finished speaking, he took away all three bottles of wine and ran out.

Yao Ruoxi was stunned at first, she never expected that Du Fan, who had always been honest on weekdays, would act like this, and a scream suddenly came out.

"Du Fan, you scoundrel!"

Xiaohu laughed, and the three of them started fighting, and they had no identity scruples between each other.

......

Spring goes to autumn, and a year passes quickly.

Du Fan stood in the medicine garden, looking at the spiritual herbs in the garden, his expression was in a trance, and he sighed after a long time.

Over the past year, Du Fan has basically spent time in the study of herbal medicine.

Now he is in charge of all the elixir gardens in Yao Mansion, and the variety and quantity of herbs are not comparable to the original medicine garden, Du Fan put all the past behind for the time being, and immersed himself in the study of herbs, and now his understanding of spiritual herbs is no longer comparable to before, and he knows more types, which makes his attainments in spiritual herbs take a big step.

After careful calculation, a large-scale transplantation was carried out, according to the different attributes of the plants and trees, rearranged, supplemented by associated and chemical fertilizers, so that the growth rate of these spiritual herbs increased by nearly two times, so that Xiao Da Steward and the head of the family were shocked at the same time, but also very happy, more loving to Du Fan, and often rewarded gold and silver.

Xiaohu has been quite majestic this year, in addition to helping Du Fan manage the medicine garden, the rest of the time is to take several of Du Fan's nurses to seek revenge, and ruthlessly repair the people who bullied him at the beginning.

Now Ah Ping, Da Xiong and others who had offended him were as frightened as mice seeing cats when they saw Xiaohu, and after being repaired, in addition to the flesh and skin injuries, their expressions were even more depressed, and they were decadent all day long.

Steward Xiao naturally knew about these things, but after smiling freely, he ignored them, which made those who were dissatisfied with Xiaohu have to swallow their grievances and secretly scream bad luck. No one thought that the dull Du Fan would also have an outburst one day, everyone knew that Xiaohu was so majestic, and it was all because of Du Fan who was in the Yao Mansion.

"You, what about you, you can't see such a big weed, get rid of it!" Xiaohu nibbled on a chicken leg and shouted at a handyman who had not dealt with him before, with a domineering expression, just chewing chicken in his mouth, and his voice was a little slurred.

Du Fan's thoughts were awakened by Xiaohu's shouting, and after being stunned for a moment, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Du Fan, the pot of phalaenopsis I raised hasn't bloomed for a long time, when will you come over and help me take a look. Yao Ruoxi carried the basket in her hand, and walked towards Du Fan with a light step, this woman was a little more stable than a year ago, taller, and her figure was quite concave and convex, with a sunny smile on her delicate little face.

When the handyman in the garden saw the eldest lady, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, but there was only respect on his face and no surprise, obviously Yao Ruoxi often came here.

As soon as Xiaohu saw the basket in Yao Ruoxi's hand, his eyes lit up, and he instantly threw away the chicken leg in his hand, rubbed his oily hand on his clothes a few times, trotted all the way, and swept his face with the previous domineering, and replaced it with a flattery.

"Miss, you're here. Running in front of Yao Ruoxi, Xiaohu also bowed and saluted, with an innocent smile on his face.

"How many times have I told you, call me sister, you're fat again!" Yao Ruoxi first touched Xiaohu's head dotingly, and then frowned a little.

"Take it, eat less!"

Xiaohu cheered excitedly, took the basket and sat directly on the ground on the side, and ate it after a while.

"The current season is not suitable for this flower, and it will bloom in another month. Du Fan explained with a soft look in his eyes.

"Hey, Du Fan, why do you always look at me with such eyes, you are only two years older than me, you are not allowed to look at me with such an elder's gaze!" Yao Ruoxi was still thinking about the pot of phalaenopsis at first, and nodded frequently, but when she saw Du Fan looking at herself with that kind of elder's loving gaze, she was immediately annoyed.

"Ahem, that...... Oh, it's okay. Du Fan coughed a little embarrassed, his actual age is nearly thirty, but Yao Ruoxi's age is really fourteen years old, his appearance is cute, and his temperament is pleasing, Du Fan can't help but spoil every time he sees Yao Ruoxi.

"By the way, the fertilizer I gave you is still good?" Du Fan changed the subject.

"Well, those flowers I raised, after applying the fertilizer you gave me, have grown much faster than before, and even the Bingyu flowers that have not bloomed for many years have broken their bones. Du Fan, how did you make this fertilizer?" Yao Ruoxi no longer dwelled on the fertilizer when she heard it, but asked with great interest.

"Ahem...... This one is made of some special materials, and it's good to use, and it's good to use. Du Fan coughed awkwardly again.

Zhengxiang Xiaohu, who was sitting on the ground and eating, glanced at the two of them, his face showed a strange expression, and he secretly said in his heart: "If Sister Ruoxi knew that chemical fertilizers were made from dung, what would her expression be." ”

But Xiaohu just thinks about it, don't look at his previous miscellaneous servants, he really doesn't dare to talk nonsense in the face of this eldest lady.

"No, you've prevaricated me several times about this, you must tell me today, otherwise I won't let you go. With that, Yao Ruoxi pinched Du Fan's ears and looked like he was about to twist them.

"Messing around! Messing with subordinates, what kind of system!" A cold snort suddenly came out, the sound was not loud, but it made everyone's minds in the medicine garden buzz at this time, as if this voice came from the depths of everyone's heart.

After a moment, everyone in the medicine garden stood up solemnly and said to the person who came, "Family master." ”

Du Fan also felt a pang in his heart, in the past year, he had also seen this family master several times, and when he saw someone at this time, he recognized it instantly.

Standing side by side with Yao Batian is a weak-crowned young man, wearing a white robe, long hair and a shawl, handsome and extraordinary, and a light and elegant temperament permeating the whole body, smiling at this time, with a gentle smile. Anyone who sees this person will feel like a spring breeze.

The chief butler Xiao was behind Yao Batian, and his expression was unexpectedly nervous, which he had never seen before.

Behind the young man in white, there were two young men in green clothes, who were about the same age as the young man in white, but they were not as gentle as the young man in white, but their faces were arrogant, and they looked high.

"This is the little girl Ruoxi, Yao has no way to discipline her, which makes Wu Daoyou smile. Yao Batian's face sank at first, then he retracted, and turned his head to explain to the white-clothed young man beside him, with a polite expression.

"Why don't you come over and see your Senior Brother Wu, see how I punish you at night!"

"Oh. Yao Ruoxi pouted, a little aggrieved, and walked in the direction of Yao Batian and his party.

"Master Yao, if Sister Ruoxi is still young, don't embarrass her. The young man in white smiled gently, and when he opened his mouth like this, his voice was like nephrite, and it was very comfortable to listen to.

"Wu Daoyou interceded for you, why don't you come over and thank you!" Yao Batian snorted coldly at his daughter.

"Ruoxi has seen Senior Brother Wu, thank you Senior Brother Wu for your understanding. Yao Ruoxi's eyes drooped slightly, and she bowed slightly.

"Sister Ruoxi, don't be polite, the last time we met was eight years ago, and I often miss you. The young man in white spoke slowly, originally a rather ** sentence, but he said it without being frivolous at all, as if it should have been.

"I have Senior Brother Lao Wu worried. Yao Ruoxi's cheeks were slightly red, his eyes were a little evasive, and after a polite word, he retreated to the other side of Yao Batian and stood solemnly.
