Luo Qi helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks. When she heard her words, she said, "he is twelve or thirteen years old. A man of twelve or thirteen years old can be regarded as an adult. Some young masters of rich and noble families began to have housemaids at this age."

    Du Xiaoli pulled at the corners of his mouth and said, "isn''t it too small?! Luo Qi, do you also have a housemaid or something?"

    "Me?" Luo Qi paused and said, "maybe or not, I don''t know."

    "Sweat, I forgot you don''t remember." Du Xiaoli put the dishes and chopsticks in the pot, soaked them in water and said, "put the dishes and chopsticks here and wash them tomorrow."

    "OK." Luo Qi nodded. I can''t see it now. I''m afraid I can''t wash it clean.

    "I can only take a bath with cold water today." Du Xiaoli said and filled a bucket of water in a wooden bucket.

    Luo Qi came over and said, "I''ll come."

    "Hmm?" Du Xiaoli didn''t understand what Luo Qi meant. He had put his hand on the bucket and began to work. Soon a bucket of water turned into hot water.

    "OK," Luo Qi stood up and said.

    Du Xiaoli was stunned by Luo Qi. There was such a magical thing!

    "You take a bath, I''ll go to the house." Luo Qi mentioned the bucket to Du Xiaoli''s bathing place in the yard, turned and went back to the house.

    Du Xiaoli just reacted. I didn''t expect that this internal power could be used like this! But fortunately, Luo Qi recovered well, otherwise she would have to take a cold bath today.

    After washing away the smell of oil smoke and sweat, Du Xiaoli felt that he had come back to life again. She went back to her room, practiced according to the book, and didn''t go to bed until the latter midnight.

    It was still some time before the oranges matured. Du Xiaoli and Luo Qi went to the mountains and asked him to teach himself martial arts. When they saw herbs, they dug them back.

    Once his mind was clear, Du Xiaoli made rapid progress in learning kung fu, and his lightness skill soon entered the door. In the next few days, she went to the mountains to practice martial arts and dig medicine in the morning, read the medical book at home in the afternoon and practice internal skills in the evening.

    Han Mingyi takes Ji Liufeng and others to Du Xiaoli every evening. The beautiful name is to let lenger water Du Xiaoli''s grape seedlings.

    Ji Liufeng smiles secretly with his mouth covered every time he sees Han Mingyi, but he doesn''t say anything.

    Such days lasted until Du Xiuheng came back from his holiday.

    Du Xiaoli knew that Du Xiuheng came home today, so he didn''t go to the mountains. After getting up, she beat up her previous life''s Kung Fu, and then picked up a broom to clean the yard.

    "What boxing was that?" Luo Qi asked when she came under the eaves.

    "Boxing? What boxing?" Du Xiaoli asked suspiciously, "I just did some moves casually according to my feeling."

    Luo Qi said suspiciously, "you have a high talent for martial arts. Do you want to learn other Kung Fu from me?"

    "Do you want to be my master?" Du Xiaoli asked.

    "Master?" Luo Qi didn''t expect this floor, then shook her head and said, "I''m still so young. I don''t want to be called a master. I''ll be called an old man. You can call me brother."

    Recently, when he got along with Du Xiaoli, he was infected by Du Xiaoli''s plain but warm life. He unconsciously treated her as his sister, so he preferred her to call her his brother than his master.

    "Brother Luo Qi." Du Xiaoli called obediently.

    Cheap brother, don''t be white.

    "Well, I''ll teach you some other Kung Fu later." Luo Qi said with a smile when she heard Du Xiaoli call her brother.

    "OK."

    It was almost noon when Du Xiuheng came home. He said hello to Du Xiaoxiao who was cooking and went to his house to put his things back.

    "Who are you?" Du Xiuheng asked in surprise when he saw Luo Qi lying on the bed as soon as he entered the room.

    "Are you Xiaoli''s brother?" Luo Qi sat up and asked.

    "I am, who are you? Why are you in my house?" Du Xiuheng looked at Luo Qi warily.

    "Brother, come out for a while." Du Xiaoli shouted outside.

    Du Xiuheng glanced at Luo Qi, turned around and went out. When he saw Du Xiaoli, he asked, "who is he? How did you get a man at home?"

    Poof——

    Du Xiaoli almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. What do you mean to get a man at home? It''s like she''s hiding a adulterer.

    She told Luo Qi''s story back and forth. The silver sobbed at Du Xiaoli''s feet to Du Xiuheng, as if cooperating with Du Xiaoli''s words.

    "Really?" Du Xiuheng looked at Luo Qi who came out of the house and asked.

    "Of course it is." Du Xiaoli took Du Xiuheng to the stool, took two oranges out of the room and said, "brother Luo Qi has lost his memory. He doesn''t know who he is or where his home is. It''s not dangerous to walk like this, so he stayed in our house for the time being." seeing Du Xiuheng, he squatted beside him with a straight face, shook his legs and said: "Besides, if you''re not at home, an adult at home can also help me work. I''m going to transplant the orange tree to the mountain in autumn. How can I get it back by myself so far? Brother Luo Qi and I picked this orange for you yesterday. It''s a little sweet now. How do you taste it?"

    Even coaxed and deceived, Du Xiuheng''s face slowed down. Du Xiaoli couldn''t help sighing in her heart. She was still a child. Why did this brother think so much. In modern times, it''s not even a big thing. How can it be the same as a big thing to Du Xiuheng?! Although Du Xiuheng accepted Luo Qi''s living at home, his face was still not very good. But fortunately, Luo Qi is a more easygoing person and is not angry because of Du Xiuheng''s cold face. After half a day of contact, Du Xiuheng admired Qi LUOQI''s talent. "This guy forgot who he was, but he didn''t forget the ink in his stomach." Du Xiaoli muttered at the two people talking. In the evening, Du Xiaoli took Du Xiuheng to see the grapes she planted. Although some died, almost two-thirds survived under her careful care. "You really succeeded in planting this! You don''t have to run so far to eat grapes in the future. Did you succeed in making wine last time?" Du Xiuheng exclaimed. "Oh, I forgot to drink wine!" Du Xiaoli was busy practicing martial arts and digging medicine every day. He had forgotten all the wine! If Du xiuhengti hadn''t reminded her, she wouldn''t remember. At dinner in the evening, Du Xiaoli took out the jar of wine he first brewed. As soon as it was opened, the aroma of the wine spread out. "Brother Luo Qi, come on, let''s not get drunk tonight!" Du Xiuheng picked up a bowl of wine and said to Luo Qi. "OK, don''t get drunk!" Luo Qi also picked up the wine bowl. After they touched it, they drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.
