"How can you say your young lady looks like a warrior?"
"you……"
"Besides, who says that spears can only be used by warriors? My wife wields a spear even more powerfully and majestically than a man."
Taohua was puzzled: "Your wife? Which wife?"
"It's the wife of the Marquis of Wu'an. Don't you know? My wife was once a famous female general in the capital. Even the Marquis couldn't defeat her."
Danqing looked proud when talking about Lan Luozhu.
"Of course I know, but my young lady is different from the Marquis's wife and cannot be compared."
"What's the difference? We are all women. If my wife can do it, I believe Miss Yu can do it too."
"You! I'm so mad at you. I can't make sense to you!"
Taohua turned around and left angrily.
Danqing scratched his head, not understanding why she was angry.
After Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi's spear practice was over, when Yu Tanqi returned to Luqi Courtyard to bathe and change clothes, Danqing reported the truth to Jiang Shi.
"It seems Taohua and the others don't want Miss Yu to practice spearmanship with the master anymore."
Compared to Danqing's confusion, Jiang Shi quickly figured out why Taohua and the others didn't want Yu Tanqi to practice shooting with him.
"It's hot now, and as Tan Qi's personal maids, it's normal for them to feel sorry for Tan Qi sweating."
He thought thoughtfully, "Thanks to them for reminding me, I almost forgot."
"It's just sweat. You'll feel clean and refreshed after a shower."
Jiang Shi shook his head. "Girls are different from us men. After sweating, they have a smell that's not very pleasant. How can a girl who loves cleanliness like the smell of sweat?"
Danqing subconsciously said, "Danhua practices martial arts and sweats all day long, why don't I see her afraid of sweating?"
"Tan Qi is different from Dan Hua. You go out, I want to take a shower."
"yes."
Jiang Shi was lost in thought in the warm water of the wooden barrel.
The boy's body was lean and strong, like a piece of finely carved jade.
Every summer, Jiang Shi insists on practicing martial arts under the scorching sun.
Perhaps it was because he had been using the ointment specially developed for him by Xu Mubai since he was a child, his skin color had always been pale.
Even though I have stopped taking the medicine, my lips have become rosy, but my skin is still pale.
The sun was very strong these days, but he didn't get any tan.
Jiang Shi thought of Yu Tanqi's appearance today.
In the sunlight, the girl's face is still glowing white.
She didn't get any tan at all.
But despite this, to be on the safe side, Jiang Shi quickly showered and dressed, found Xu Mubai, and asked him to help develop a whitening ointment that women could use, as well as a summer ointment to prevent heatstroke under the scorching sun, without any side effects.
In the medicine garden, a pretty woman was sitting at the table sorting the herbs.
When she saw Jiang Shi, she looked up curiously, met Jiang Shi's eyes, and quickly lowered her head.
Jiang Shi asked, "Is it possible for her to recover her memory in the future?"
This woman is Yu Lan.
Jiang Shi was the first to discover that something was wrong with her and handed her over to Xu Mubai, asking Xu Mubai to study the poison of the insect.
It was not until recently that Xu Mubai almost eliminated the toxin left by the insect in Yu Lan's body, but after Yu Lan woke up, she had lost her memory.
Xu Mubai shook his head: "Her brain is paralyzed by the poison of the insect. Even I am not sure that I can completely remove the poison from her brain. Unless we find the person who put the poison on her, otherwise, she may never have any memory in her life."
Jiang Shi looked at Yu Lan with a somewhat indifferent look.
Although Jiang Shi knew that Yu Lan almost harmed Yu Tanqi because she was controlled by a poisonous insect, it was still difficult for him to forgive her easily.
"Then she's useless now." The boy's calm voice had a hint of coldness that was not in his usual tone.
Xu Mubai paused, "Maybe she is still useful. She is very hardworking and can help me a lot."
Jiang Shi looked at him in surprise.
Xu Mubai smiled and said, "People are all made of flesh and blood. During these few months that she has been in the medicine garden, she has made me feel the happiness I haven't felt in a long time."
Jiang Shi pursed her lips slightly, naturally understanding what he meant.
He didn't want Yu Lan to leave, and even more so, he didn't want Yu Lan to die.
Jiang Shi knew that the reason why Xu Mubai was willing to stay by his side and help him for so many years was because he had always loved his mother and felt guilty for not being able to protect his mother, so he transferred this guilt to him and did his best to protect and help him.
Although Xu Mubai did not express his love for his mother, they both knew it.
Xu Mubai added: "Of course, I treat her as my daughter. After all, I am more than ten years older than her."
The man was wearing a grey robe and his snow-white hair did not make him look very old, but instead gave him a cool and elegant temperament.
Just looking at his appearance, no one would believe that Xu Mubai is over 40 years old. They would think he is only in his thirties.
Xu Mubai looked at Yu Lan with a gentle look, the expression that an elder would have when looking at a younger person.
Jiang Shi finally just reminded him: "Yu Lan and a vassal of Yun Xuan once had a relationship. I don't want Yu Lan to be used again to attack me or Tan Qi."
Xu Mubai said, "Don't worry, I won't let Yun Xuan take advantage of Yu Lan again."
He took out two sachets and said, "I have developed a medicine that can repel poisonous insects. I have placed it in the sachets. Carry them with you. The poisonous insects will not dare to appear within a six-foot radius of you."
…
Prince Yun’s Mansion, study.
Yun Xuan, wearing a dark green robe, lowered his eyes to look at the puppy in the cage.
This is a Shih Tzu that is only one month old. He bought it specially at the dog market. Hou Lang collected information that Yu Tanqi also bought his dog here.
Yunxuan's dog is a male, while Yu Tanqi's is a female.
Yunxuan didn't know why he suddenly bought a dog.
The Prince Yun's Mansion was eerily quiet at night.
The night outside the window was like a big hand with ferocious fingers stretched out, ready to drag him into the endless darkness at any time.
Yun Xuan suddenly said to the puppy in the cage, "Why aren't you barking?"
The puppy looked at him innocently with its big eyes.
Yun Xuan pursed his lips, thinking of what the seller had told him: Shih Tzus are naturally quiet and won't bark.
But Yu Tanqi's dog is very noisy, which makes people feel upset.
Yun Xuan clenched his hands tightly, and the muscles and bones on the back of his white hands were clearly visible.
He whispered, "If you knew that I helped you punish Gao Xianyue, you would..."
Having said that, the young man closed his mouth, not knowing how to express his thoughts.
Will she be touched or in disbelief?
Yun Xuan knew very well that Yu Tanqi would not be easily moved by him.
She wouldn't even look at him.
Yun Xuan became increasingly upset.
He looked at the quiet and well-behaved puppy in the cage and whispered, "Her dog's name is Dafu."
The puppy blinked.
"Just call..."
He paused.
"Xiaofu, right?"
"Xiaofu."
When he pronounced the name, something seemed to pass through his heart quickly.
The puppy naturally didn't respond to him.
