Chapter 5: Steward Liu's Anger
"Brother Du, I didn't expect the eldest lady to be so kind and beautiful, it's the first time I've seen her so closely. Xiaohu looked excited.
"You've said it more than a dozen times, don't you like the eldest lady? Du Fan teased while busy with the work in his hands.
"Hey, Brother Du, be quiet, don't die!" Xiaohu, who was sitting on the ground, jumped up directly and covered Du Fan's mouth with his hand.
"Take your hand away, it stinks to death!" Du Fan directly broke Xiaohu's hand away.
"It's not all for you, it must have been done when you were carrying animal manure just now, Brother Du, why are you doing these disgusting things?" Xiaohu sniffed his hand and asked with some dissatisfaction.
"You'll know in a few days, just wait. ”
Du Fan dug a large pit in the open space of the elixir garden, poured two baskets of manure obtained from the farm into it, sprinkled some unknown powder, covered it with multiple layers of oiled paper, and then buried it with soil.
"The animals on the farm are not ordinary, and we don't know how effective the fertilizer made from their manure is. Du Fan is full of anticipation.
......
Half a month later, Xiaohu was removing weeds for the spiritual herbs in the medicine garden.
"It should be almost. Du Fan looked at his feet, this is the place where animal feces were buried half a month ago.
"This is the list of spiritual herbs needed at the end of the month, according to the standards on it, hand in all the amounts, otherwise you will be severely fined. The gloomy voice suddenly remembered that this person was the Yao family's steward in charge of medicinal herbs, Liu Neng.
This person appeared in the medicine garden, threw a cowhide on the ground, and was about to turn around and leave, but under the trembling of his body, his pupils suddenly shrank, and after looking at the elixir garden again, his heart suddenly became excited, his face changed greatly, and he hissed: "Du Fan! what's going on here, who did it?"
Liu Neng pointed to the medicine garden that had been replanted by Du Fan and was shocked.
"Oh, the herbs weren't planted in a good arrangement before, so I re-transplanted them. Du Fan spoke casually.
"You! Who made you move? What a big dog guts! The planting arrangement here is personally deployed by the master of the immortal sect elixir, you dare to move without authorization, you are in trouble, you are in trouble, and you will be affected by me, you ......" Liu Neng's eyes were red, his breath was short, his fingers trembled, he hissed and shouted angrily, and finally he was already a little incoherent.
Liu Neng was extremely frightened at this time, he knew that these spiritual herbs were not the Yao family's things, but to help the Purple Mountain Sect to grow on behalf of the family, although the Yao family was the first family of the Tianxiang Country, but in the eyes of the Purple Mountain Sect, like ants, the Yao family was just trying to survive in the cracks. He knew very well what the spiritual herbs meant to the Yao family, and he also knew that if this matter was known to the family leaders, he would face the monstrous anger he would face, and his years of hard work would be ruined, not to mention that his life would be difficult to protect. Thinking of the terrifying Purple Mountain Sect again, he almost collapsed.
He already hated Du Fan, and he regretted it even more, he regretted why he didn't take the opportunity to kill the other party when Du Fan was seriously ill, it was too late to say anything at this time, Liu Neng's heart was in a hurry, how to put all the responsibility on the two people in front of him.
At this time, Xiaohu was also afraid, although the spiritual herbs in the medicine garden had indeed increased their yield and grown a lot faster than before, and they had also been happy about this matter, and they also admired Du Fan. As Xiaohu, he didn't know the relationship between Yao Fu and the Purple Mountain Faction, but now when he saw Liu Neng's appearance, his heart couldn't help beating wildly, and his face began to change.
"Is Du Fan here? Great, it turns out that you are really here!" A pleasant and crisp voice broke the mysterious atmosphere of the here and now, and a red figure floated into the medicine garden, it was the eldest lady of the Yao family.
At this time, the eldest lady of the Yao family was different from what Du Fan saw that day, although it was also bright and moving, but her face was sad and preoccupied that day, but at this moment she was much more cheerful and happy, and she was more lively and lovely.
"Miss, why are you here? Liu Neng already had something in his heart, but after seeing the eldest lady, he was even more frightened and had doubts.
"Steward Liu is also here, you should be busy first, I have something to find Du Fan." The eldest lady waved her hand casually and floated straight towards Du Fan, her expression full of joy.
"Yes, Miss. Liu Neng's face changed uncertainly, and he was finally gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking about in his heart, so he finally walked out of the medicine garden.
"Du Fan, I came to thank you, I did what you told me that day, and it worked, and now the Fu'an tree is dense and prosperous. Running in front of Du Fan, the eldest lady thanked her with a smile.
"That's good. Du Fan is not the slightest surprise, this top advantage is one of the simplest principles in biology, no matter where it is placed, the principle is the same.
"This is for you, and I promised you that as long as you have done me a great favor, I will not be unkind to you. The eldest lady handed a cloth bag in her hand to Du Fan, looking at his struggling appearance, the things inside should not be light.
"What is this?" Du Fan wondered.
"Oh, it's a hundred taels of silver, take it quickly, I'm tired to death, it's so heavy. The eldest lady frowned slightly.
One hundred taels? As soon as he heard this number, Xiaohu, who was already standing beside Du Fan at this moment, opened his mouth wide and his face stiffened.
"Miss, you can take it back, it's just a gesture, you don't have to take it to heart, besides, I don't need it. ”
Du Fan was not very interested in money, and when he was on Earth, he was taken care of by Dr. Song when he was in school. After graduating and working, he directly handed over the salary card to Liang Xin, and he didn't care about the trivial things, it can be said that Du Fan on the earth has basically never spent money in person since he was a child, and he has no concept of this kind of silver and copper money.
Now that he has gradually given up on returning to Earth, he studies spiritual herbs in the medicine garden every day that he has never been exposed to before, and this kind of life is still more suitable for his tranquil and comfortable temperament.
What's more, there is really no need to spend money here, it is enough to buy some auxiliary herbs every month, if you want to eat meat, Xiaohu can go to the room to steal, Du Fan is very content with his current life, of course, if he doesn't recall certain things.
"Du Fan, I brought such a heavy thing myself, you don't appreciate it, you ......" The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, and then she was a little annoyed, and her small breasts were violently fluctuating with anger, and she was even more aggrieved.
When the eldest lady was in a dilemma, her eyes swept to the little tiger beside Du Fan.
"Hmph, I won't give it to you, you are Xiaohu, my sister gave it to you, take it. ”
Before Xiaohu could react, the eldest lady couldn't help but put the package around Xiaohu's neck, raised her chin to look at Du Fan, snorted like a demonstration, turned around and left.
This look is really not much of a deterrent made by a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, especially the cute and playful Miss Yao family, this move makes Du Fan embarrassed.
"Hey, remember, my name is Yao Ruoxi, and I'll come back to you again. When the eldest lady was about to walk out of the medicine garden, she left a crisp sentence and disappeared at the entrance of the medicine garden.
"This is, wow, this is a silver ingot! I haven't seen a silver ingot, the biggest money I've ever seen before is some broken silver, here, there are hundreds of silver ingots, Brother Du, we have made a fortune, when will we spend so much, these silvers are ours!" Xiaohu opened the package, looked at the hundreds of silver ingots inside, breathed rapidly, the light in his eyes was full of light, and his words were incoherent, and he was a little crazy.
Du Fan glanced at a hundred taels of silver, which was a little dazzling in the sunlight, shook his head, and continued to dig fertilizer.
"Brother Du, how do you say to spend it? From now on, he will get rid of the identity of a miscellaneous servant, go out to buy a house, marry a few wives, and enjoy wealth forever!"
Du Fan could only roll his eyes helplessly.
"Brother Du......"
Du Fan directly plugged his ears with a paper ball.
It wasn't until a long time later that Xiaohu finally got to a better fit and rewrapped the scattered silver.
"Come and help, and bury these evenly in the soil near the spiritual herbs. Du Fan glanced at Xiaohu, took down the paper ball in his ear, and said indifferently.
"What are these?"
"Fertilizer!"
