Goldfield
Chapter 218: Valuable

The flowers are bright and colorful, while the grass looks like a green carpet. There was a pair of siblings and wolves in various colors, but the atmosphere was harmonious and comfortable.

After the wolf licked all the mystical stone water in Xiaocao's hand, he was still unsatisfied and continued to lick Xiaocao's soft and delicate palm with his rough tongue. However, it seemed to know that the person in front of him only had a few drops of mystic stone water at the moment, so did not ask for more.

The fear in Little Shitou's heart slowly faded. He stared curiously at the gray wolf, which had clean, thick fur and soft eyes. He whispered to Xiaocao, Second Sister, is this a dog? If it was a wolf, he would have eaten us already! ”

Xiaocao's heart also completely relaxed and he was looking to tease Little Shitou, “Have you seen such a tall and mighty dog? Isn't that obviously a wolf? As for why he didn't eat us, maybe he just finished eating and wasn't hungry! ”

With a sad expression, Little Shitou stared pitifully at the gray wolf and continued to speak in a low voice, “Then ... will it keep us as food supply?”

Xiaocao tapped his head and laughed, “This valley is rich with water and grass, so will there be a shortage of prey? Do you think your meat is really good? Human meat is sour, so don't want to eat it ah! ”

Little Shitou was immediately off topic, “Second Sister, how did you know that human flesh is sour? You've never even eaten that before! ”

“Who said I've never eaten before? I am an old goblin from the mountains. Your second brother has been eaten by me. ”With a gloomy voice, the corner of his mouth curves into a strange smile and his face is filled with a sinister expression, people would be greatly frightened by Xiaocao's current appearance.

Little Shitou looked at him blankly, as if she was frightened. Xiaocao realized that the little boy was only six years old, so he must have been very frightened.

Just as she wanted to calm the little one, Little Shitou's mouth tip slowly lifted and her voice was filled with confidence as she said, “Second Sister! Although your character and temperament are completely different from before, I'm sure you will definitely not hurt anyone from us. You are my second sister, my good and capable second sister! ”

Yu Xiaocao gently ruffled the little boy's hair and laughed, “I think you really believe! How could there be so many demons and ghosts in the world? As long as one does not commit a sin, one need not fear the ghost knocking on the door in the middle of the night. Often, people who have malicious intentions are people who are filled with suspicion! Our Shitou must be an honest and honest person ah! ”

Little Shitou firmly nodded and said, “Second Sister, I will remember !! … But, shouldn't we go back now? With this wolf here, how can we go back? ”

“How do we get back? Just come back ah! Do you think this wolf will bring us back? ” Yu Xiaocao could feel the wolf's goodwill, and he also had the guarantee of that small holy stone, so there was naturally nothing to fear.

He picked up the flowers he had thrown away earlier as they tried to escape. Fortunately, he did not throw the jars in his hands, otherwise, they would have been useless! Xiaocao asked Little Shitou to hold her flowers, while she carried a ceramic jar. With his free hand, he patted the wolf's head, “We're leaving now. We will be visiting you in the future! ”

The gray wolf wagged its tail, which hung behind it. Little Shitou laughed and said, “Could it be the offspring of dogs and wolves? This is really similar to Dahuang Eldest Grandfather ah! ”

The brothers walked around the wolves and headed to the cave. The gray wolf followed behind them for a while and saw them enter the cave before reluctantly leaving.

By the time they got home, it was almost noon. Lady Fang knew that her siblings had gone to the forest. Seeing that they had not returned for so long, he was very worried and asked Zhenzhu to go to the forest several times.

“Aiyo! Dear Young Miss, you are finally back! If you come back later, Madam will send people to the forest to look for you! ” Zhenzhu finally saw Xiaocao after waiting for such a long time. He quickly advanced and took the jar in Xiaocao's hands. He looked at it curiously and asked, “What kind of fish is this? I've never seen it before! ”

Xiaocao giggled and said, “We call it a small white fish. The meat is tender and does not smell at all. Godmother should be able to eat a little! ”

Zhenzhu was so touched that her eyes glazed over. The madam had a bad appetite recently and became thin quite a lot. As his servant, of course, he was worried about his master. Xiaocao had tried various cooking methods for Madam just so she could eat more. This was something Zhenzhu saw clearly. He said sincerely, “Young Miss, this waitress is grateful in place of Madam!”

“Why do I need you to thank me? Your mistress is my godmother. I should have treated him well! ” Yu Xiaocao glared at him with a smile.

The group of three people laughed and chatted, and soon reached the Zhao Family residence on the mountain slope. From afar, they saw Lady Fang being supported by Linglong as she stood at the entrance and looked towards them.

Xiaocao's heart warmed. He carried the flower he dug up and quickly ran towards Lady Fang. Lady Fang finally showed a relieved smile and said, “Slow. Watch your steps and be careful with small stones! ”

The flushed little face in front of him was covered in a thin layer of sweat glittering like a dew-covered rose. Lady Fang took out her handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat for her, and then she softly said, “Why did you leave for so long? Later if you want to play in the forest, invite your godfather to accompany you. With your godfather's ability, you don't have to be afraid even if you meet a tiger! ”

Yu Xiaocao nodded nonstop yet he thought to himself, ‘We did not meet a big tiger this time, but we met a big gray wolf! But, with the small holy stone gift, there will be no problem even if we meet the big tiger! ‘ However, she fears her godmother will be frightened and shock her younger brother in the belly of his godmother. So, he did not mention anything about the gray wolf.

When Lady Fang's gaze turned to Xiaocao's hand, a sense of surprise suddenly appeared in her eyes. He grabbed Xiaocao's arm, and gently took a flower from his hand. With a hint of pain in his eyes, he asked, “Aiya! This... is this the famous orchid species — Flying Fairy in Snow Field? I only saw her once in the empress' room. I heard that it was a tribute from Tufan. Aiyo, the roots have been cut. I wonder if he can survive! ”

Lady Fang is a famous orchid lover. After Fang Zizhen learned of this, he never forgot to find different types of orchids for her wherever she went. He specifically hired a plantation expert, who was an expert in raising orchids, to care for dozens of orchid species at home on high wages.

Ever since she saw ‘Airport at Snow’ Field in the imperial palace, Madam Fang had always thought about it. After many unsuccessful quests, Fang Zizhen with a grim face went to the palace to ask the emperor for orchids. However, he was expelled by Emperor Jianwen. “As if you were the only one who loved your wife, you actually dared to want something that belonged to my wife!” Looking at the roots that Xiaocao had cut because she was anxious, Miss Fang felt as if a part of her heart had been dug up. It hurts a lot ah!

“Uh... Godmother, let's plant this flower first. If we delay any longer, it might wither! ” Seeing the restless expression of his godmother, it seems like she accidentally dug up a rare type of orchid! The Flying Fairy in the Snow Field is a very beautiful name !! So godmother likes orchids ah. Next time, he would have to dig up more varieties. Maybe her godmother will have a better appetite when her mood is good.

As if she was holding a rare treasure, Miss Fang carefully held the orchid in her hand. He asked Linglong to take a flower pot, and then he personally planted an orchid in it. Because of his love for orchids, he is quite experienced in growing orchids. After planting the flowers, it is necessary to water. Xiaocao, who was helping beside him, turned the water into diluted mystical stone water.

The other two plants are camellias that already have small flower buds on them. Lady Fang did not like camellias as much as orchids, but with her sharp eyesight, she knew that these two camellias were amazing.

“Second Sister, I will put these flowers into a vase.” Little Shitou is not interested in planting flowers. She plans to help her older brother collect seafood after putting his flowers in a vase.

When Lady Fang turned her head and saw the beautiful camellia flower in Little Shitou's embrace, she almost fainted from the pain in her heart, “Yes God! Eighteen Masters !! How can you pick Eighteen Scholars and put them in a vase? I... I really don't know what to say... ”.

Seeing the sad expression on her godmother's face, Xiaocao quickly said, “Godmother, it must be one of these two plants. If you like, I can dig even more for you tomorrow .. Godmother, why is it called Eighteen Scholars ah? ”

When Lady Fang heard that there seemed to be more of this type of camellia in the mountains, the pain in her heart felt a little better. With the support of her goddaughter, she slowly entered the house. After seeing the beautiful and charming Eighteen Scholars camellia flower inside the vase, she thought, ‘Daughter Jing's concubine really likes camellia flowers. If she knew that I had ‘Eighteen Scholars’ in a vase, I wondered if she would be envious or would she scold me for recklessly squandering god's gifts? ‘

“Many people think that Eighteen Scholars breed of eighteen flowers of different colors, but that is not the case. Eighteen refers to the eighteen rows of petals, not their color. Most Eighteen Scholars have eighteen layers of flower petals and the tree also has a graceful shape, so it is highly sought after by the general public. There are three types of Eighteen Scholars: Eighteen-Pink Scholars, Eighteen-Red Scholars, and Eighteen-White Scholars. The flowers you pick seem to cover all varieties. I don't know what kind of plant you are planting? ” Mistress Fang touched one of the buds and gently explained to Xiaocao.

Xiaocao nodded then shook his head and said, “I don't know either. The princess knew nothing about flowers. We have to wait for it to bloom to know its kind! But it's okay. I was able to go back a few times, and in the end we will move all three camellia colors here. Next time, I'll bring a shovel. It was uncomfortable to use a wooden stick, so many of its roots were broken! ”

Lady Fang patted her shoulder, sighed, and said, “I didn't expect the Western Mountains to have such a rare species of flower. Know ye? Just this camellia alone was hard to find even with thousands of gold. But it's like radishes and cabbages for you. Are you trying to upset all those flower lovers? ”

Xiaocao touched the back of his head and said with a silly smile, “ Godmother, is there anyone who has knowledge of the flowers around you? That person can come with me tomorrow to see if there are any other rare flower species. We can dig even more so that Godmother can give it to your closest friends when you return to the capital. You don't have to spend money to buy it! ”

“This little jerk! These precious flowers can only be found and not sought. It is not something that money can buy! I thought you'd say to dig more back to sell for money! Godmother does not love you in vain! ” Lady Fang gently pinched her delicate and tender cheeks, and her smile was filled with emotion.
