Chapter 24: No Hurry

"Third sister!" Shen Mingyan said with a smile: "Sit down and talk slowly, look at your urgency." But what's the matter?"

"It's very important!" Shen Mingyan sat opposite Qiao Ziyue, looking at Qiao Ziyue with blank eyes: "I hope that Sister Qiao will tell the truth!"

"Don't hide it from Miss Shen, I really don't know. I just got the news and went to the small pier in the west of the city to wait for him, and he only took a half-day boat. During this period, he did ask a lot about customs and folklore, but did not reveal any information about him. The boy didn't seem to be very talkative. It's all a matter of words. I was afraid that he would be bored, so I sang to him. He paid a lot of money for the boat, and I have to be worthy of others. ”

"Whose news did you receive?"

"Uncle Gu, who opened a teahouse in the west of the city in the same village. He also called me because our family was struggling," Qiao Ziyue said, turning her gaze to the window. My mother died early, my father was sick in bed all the year round, a young brother and two little sisters were not yet adults, and the pressure faced by the eldest sister was not something that the two rich daughters in front of me could understand.

A girl of Qiao Ziyue's age from another family has already married and had children. The mother-in-law also set up a husband's family for Qiao Ziyue when she was alive, and her husband's family has made a fortune as a silk shop over the years, and she saw that the Qiao family never mentioned marriage.

"Sister, can you take me to Uncle Gu?" Shen Mingyan said unrelentingly: "Maybe he knows." "Since Qiao Ziyue said that the son asked about the customs and folklore, he must not be a local. Shen Mingyan was only afraid that if she slowed down, the person would go far.

Perhaps seeing that Qiao Ziyue's face was gloomy, Shen Mingyan pushed the pastry in front of Qiao Ziyue and diverted the topic: "Miss Qiao eats pastries, please forgive my sister for saying more, ask questions that shouldn't be asked, your tea"

How could the tea of an ordinary tea house girl make both Chazun and Hu Er Ye praise endlessly? Shen Mingyan couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart, what kind of tea was this.

"It was given to me by someone else!" Qiao Ziyue smiled faintly: "Don't hide it from Miss Shen, last night Uncle Gu sent the second girl of their family to find me, saying that if I want to win, I will make this tea and let the tea master taste it, and I will definitely win." I think they also know that I want to win, and they are willing to help me. At first, I didn't take it seriously, but I saw that the box was exquisite, and I made a few cups at home, which was really good, and the tea I drank was different, so I brought it over. I was also surprised by Cha Zun's reaction just now. Although Uncle Gu has been in charge of the teahouse for many years, the tea leaves used are all from the surrounding Zhuangzi. If Chazun and Hu Erye are both amazed, it must be some kind of precious tea. ”

Since the age of twelve, Qiao Ziyue has come to Mingxiangzhai every year to compete. Mingxiangzhai's color head may be just a dispensable glory for other girls, but for Qiao Ziyue, this color head is her father's medicine money, and it is the money for her younger siblings to change their clothes. With his skillful skills, Qiao Ziyue has won the lottery for four years. Hearing that the number of participants this year has more than doubled, Qiao Ziyue became inexplicably nervous. This tea is also a bet for her.

"Eldest sister, you also understand the situation, it's better than Sister Qiao" Shen Mingyan only thought about going to the west of the city to ask Uncle Gu about things, and she didn't want to delay for a moment.

Shen Mingyan stepped forward and grabbed Shen Mingyan's arm: "The third sister is not in a hurry for a moment, since it is all about Uncle Gu, she must go over there." It's better to wait for Chazun and Hu Erye to come before making a decision. Besides, I don't know if Uncle Fu has repaired the car, and it will be difficult for you to hire a car and horses when you go out. What is important to the third sister, can you tell the eldest sister and see if the eldest sister can help?"

At this time, in the west of the city, in the Yipinju Teahouse, there was a black silk and silver bag in front of the shopkeeper Gu.

The tall man in black smiled: "This is a gratuity, please take care of the shopkeeper!"

Shopkeeper Gu held the silver bag with both hands and smiled with a smile on his face: "It's broken, it's broken, thank you, thank you!"

The man in black smiled faintly: "Shopkeeper Gu is still ready to prepare, there will be a distinguished guest coming to the door today." ”

"And the distinguished guests?" Shopkeeper Gu's eyes lit up, and the remuneration he received in the past few days was very generous.

"If they ask about tea, tell them that they will meet at the tea tasting meeting on the eighth day of the fifth month. ”

The shopkeeper Gu replied: "Okay, good! Gu has written it down!"

The man in black smiled and turned to leave.

At this moment, a young man of medium stature in a black narrow sleeve suit walked in from outside. The man had a black knife on his back, his hair was in a messy bun, and his face was slightly dark, although he had a black beard, he still couldn't hide his warm and handsome face. As soon as the man looked up and saw the man in black, his eyes smiled: "Brother Ziyi!"

The man in black was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Shen Daxia!"

Shen Pengrun stepped forward and punched the man in black in the chest: "Don't give me a smooth tone! Why are you so black-hearted, you actually got rid of me halfway! How much I suffered!"

The man in black pulled Shen Pengrun and walked out: "Let's go, don't yell here! If you didn't have to take care of that matter, we wouldn't have left you." ”

Shen Pengrun let him pull him and smiled: "What about Brother Zijie? You two have always been inseparable! Could it be that he left you behind?"

On the west side of the teahouse is an inland river that is a few feet wide, and the man in black pulled Shen Pengrun to the shade of the trees on the bank, and looked down at Shen Pengrun's dusty thick-soled boots: "What's the matter?

"Didn't I just enter the city? I want to have a cup of tea when I see the teahouse, I don't want to meet you!"

The man in black smiled: "Then you should go for tea, I still have to leave beforehand!"

"What?" Shen Pengrun grabbed the man's sleeve: "You still want to run! Don't forget that the Western Capital is my home! Take me to see Zhou Zijie, I have to ask him! Why did he become my nosy business!"

"It's not your chivalrous heart!"

"Zhou Ziyi!" Shen Pengrun raised his head and said angrily: "Take me to see Zhou Zijie! I'm still waiting for you to relieve me! That stupid big man chased me." If you really chase after me, you will give me the aftermath!"

"If you're not in a hurry to get home"

Before Zhou Ziyi finished speaking, Shen Pengrun said: "I'm not in a hurry!

Zhou Ziyi smiled slyly: "I mean, if you don't rush home, go and have fun, we have important things to do." ”

Shen Pengrun chased after him: "What's important! Don't forget, I was born and grew up in the Western Capital, what do you have to say!"

Zhou Ziyi narrowed his slender eyes: "We need to find someone, no, two people to be exact!"

"Ha! Find someone! Such a thing! Say what kind of person, go back and let my father and brother help find it, as long as you are in the Western Capital, not to mention two people, even two ants can find it for you!"

"Unfortunately, we're not sure we're here!

"You!" Shen Pengrun clenched his fists and said angrily: "Since you are guarding against me everywhere, it doesn't matter if you don't help me!
