Quick Wear: The Beautiful Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character Loses Her Memory

Chapter 101 From now on, I can only watch her from afar (48)

When Xiao Ji saw Xie Jingshu for the first time, he almost didn't recognize her.

After all, the other party's changes are quite big.

Most of the ladies in the capital don’t like too bright colors. They are proud of dressing in simple and elegant styles, so they mostly wear light-colored clothes.

Just like the Miss Xu next to him, she was wearing a warm white dress today, but she paired it with a belt with intricate patterns and rich colors around her waist.

But Xie Jingshu was different today. She was standing in the crowd in a red dress, without even a curtain or veil. The sadness that once lingered between her brows had long disappeared.

Instead, there was a confidence and assertiveness that Xiao Ji had not seen in many years.

This is not right, Xiao Ji cried out in his heart: Over the years, Jing Shu has become more and more like the famous ladies from the capital, but it has only been a short time since they last saw each other, how could she have changed so completely!

Because it was Xiao Ji who brought the curtain, Miss Xu was unaware of the changes in the expressions of the people around her. Seeing that he was standing still, she thought he also wanted to buy the soup, so she said softly: "Prince Xiao, do you want to taste this soup too!"

Hearing Miss Xu addressing him as "Prince Xiao", Xiao Ji's gaze involuntarily drifted towards Xie Jingshu. He wanted to see: how would the other party react after knowing he was there? At least she wouldn't be so intimate with the man next to her like this!

Xie Jingshu was not affected at all. After taking the soup from the stall owner, she left the stall with Xue Han.

Before following her young lady away, Lianzi sensitively glanced in the direction of Xiao Ji, but she just looked and said nothing.

"My Ah Fu really knows a lot." Xue Han took the soup from Xie Jingshu and said proudly, "I just started visiting the temple fair and he saved me the money for a bowl of soup."

As he said this, he was about to taste the soup that the boss had just given him.

"Don't drink it yet!" Xie Jingshu quickly stopped Xue Han, and then asked Lianzi to take out a small paper bag from the small cloth bag she brought, "Here, add this sugar before drinking."

"But didn't you just say..." Xue Han was a little confused.

Seeing that there were no people around, Xie Jingshu sighed and explained, "How can a mere lotus seed core be so bitter? And you can see there aren't many lotus seeds in the soup! The bitterness comes from adding a little bit of coptis chinensis when boiling the soup."

"Huh!" Xue Han was curious, "Do you know this because you understand pharmacology?"

"To be more precise, this Coptis chinensis has been specially processed according to the method I provided." When talking about her expertise, Xie Jingshu couldn't help but feel a little proud.

It turns out that in order to make the soup more bitter, a little bit of berberine was added, but because of the special method, many people can't taste it at all, and this can also reduce the cost of the soup.

Lotus seeds are so expensive! And you need a lot of them, unlike coptis chinensis, where a little bit can last a long time.

"In fact, at this time of year, it's good to use some Coptis chinensis." Xie Jingshu explained calmly, "It's very good for clearing heat and detoxifying, and my eldest sister told her men to only put a little sugar in it."

What is not said at the end is: Sugar is so expensive! Save it!

"Are you saying that the stall just now belongs to your eldest sister?" Xue Han was quite surprised by this, because many of the shops here seemed to be royal merchants.

Xie Jingyao pointed to a red banner hanging not far away and said, "Any place with such a banner hanging at the temple fair is my eldest sister's property, not only in the capital, but also in the entire Great Yong Dynasty."

Xue Han was slightly stunned, and his first feeling was that his future sister-in-law was not simple.

"That's amazing!" Xie Jingshu's tone was full of pride. "My sister has loved doing business since she was a child. Even though she is married now, she still has her own business."

Xue Han heard something else in the other person's words. He held Xie Jingshu's hand and said, "Afu, after we get married, you can do whatever you want. I will definitely support you."

"There's nothing I want to do!" Xie Jingshu was touched and her face was full of shyness.

"Then you can take your time to think about it. When you have made up your mind, just tell me." Xue Han reached out and gently scratched his sweetheart's nose, and as he wished, he heard her soft exclamation.

At this moment, a man wearing a "cloth curtain hat" suddenly "bumped" towards them.

Xue Han had already discovered his movements before the other party came close, and quickly pulled Xie Jingshu to avoid the collision.

This man obviously did not have the skills of Xue Han, because he was going too fast and using too much force, and he just "flew" straight out.

The servant behind Xue Han was knocked to the ground by him, which "cushioned" him a bit, but this amount of force was not enough. He collided with several people in succession and fell to the ground because he was pushed by someone.

Unfortunately, the person who pushed him had a raised ornament on his sleeve, which happened to hook the cloth curtain on his "bamboo hat" and blew the "bamboo hat" off.

Xie Jingshu turned around to see the man's condition, and suddenly saw the red and swollen wound on the man's face with the skin slightly turned outward.

Frowning, she said in disgust, "How ugly!"
