Chapter 44: Tea Tasting
When I got home in the evening, it was almost ten o'clock. Gu Feng didn't call today, thinking that he had to take care of his grandfather at night, so he didn't have time to call. When I thought about it, there was actually something going on on his side that made him unable to get out.
I sat on the couch and looked at the gardenias on the balcony in a daze. In late spring and early summer, when it is a little cool at night, the gardenia bears several small buds, timidly swaying in the cool breeze.
"Bang!" "Bang!" As I watched the buds, there was a loud bang at the door, followed by a crackling sound of heavy objects.
I turned my head to look, only to see Xiaowan coming over angrily, throwing the bag on the cabinet casually, making a "bang" sound.
Before I could ask, she was sitting on the couch next to me, and the couch shook and I shook.
I steadied myself and asked, "What's wrong?"
She said angrily: "I met a fool today, a big fool!"
I hurriedly poured a glass of water and handed it to her: "What's the matter?"
She drank the water in one go, and then dissipated her breath slightly: "Didn't I take a new tea promotion project a while ago, and the promotion effect was not bad, their company held a tea tasting invitation this morning and sent me an invitation." I went out late in the morning, bought a leek cake at the door, put it in my bag and went. You said that this company is also wonderful, it has a tea party early in the morning, and it doesn't prepare any pastries or anything. I drank a few cups of tea hungry, and then I couldn't stand it anymore, so I found a corner and sat down and took out the leek cake to eat, and drank tea to relieve my grudge by the way. ”
She paused, poured another glass of water, took a sip, and then continued: "I was eating, and suddenly a fool stood up behind the partition next to me, looked at me with a frown and disgusted expression, and covered my nose with my hand and said four words, 'Violent Heavenly Things', I blew up at the time, and asked him, 'What did you say? Say it again!' He actually said it again!" Hearing this, I silently recited in my heart, "Didn't you tell people to say it again?" , Thinking about it, I still put on a look of righteous indignation and hatred for the same enemy, and asked very cheerfully: "Then what do you say?"
"I also said four words - 'It's your business,' and then he got up. He said that the cup in my hand is the ancient tree Pu'er 'former return', and good tea should be tasted slowly, and it is even accompanied by something like leek cake. He also said that China's tea culture is broad and profound, blending Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism, and integrating them, harmonious but different, and being ruined by people like me is really a misfortune for tea!"
I felt familiar with this sentence, and my mind turned, and I finally remembered who said it, and I thought, it can't be such a coincidence.
"You say, is this kind of person sick, stupid!" Xiaowan was still very angry.
I thought to myself, touched my chin and said, "I probably know this stupid guy you're talking about." Then, I opened my mobile phone and clicked on WeChat, found Ling Yusen's WeChat, clicked on his avatar of looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle with slightly squinted eyes, and handed it to Xiaowan to see, and then I heard her shout: "It's this idiot! Qingqing, who is he? I'm going to smoke him, and today he left after saying that, and I didn't react and didn't have time to pump him." This grandson!"
I was silent for a moment, and then cautiously said, "If you smoke him, I may lose my job......"
"Why?" Xiao Wan just finished speaking, and immediately reacted in the next second, "He shouldn't be your boss, right?"
"Unfortunately, yes. I nodded earnestly.
Xiaowan's eyes widened, and she looked speechless.
What happened between Xiaowan and Ling Yusen later made me feel the unpredictability of the next world again.
