Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Draw?
Zheng Keke nodded lightly and said, "It turned out to be Jiangnan tea...... I use Yizhou tea to fight with your Jiangnan tea, which is indeed unfair, and I owe you a favor this time. ”
Lu Yu couldn't help but be happy when he heard this, and said, "You said this a little too early, Coco." ”
Zheng Keke smiled noncommittally: "Whatever you say, I'll make tea first." ”
After that, she ignored Lu Yu and began to boil water to make tea.
This time she used the second boiling water, although she is not a tea person, but Zheng Xi's knowledge of tea is extremely high.
The action of scalding the cup, pouring water, and throwing tea is light and elegant, flowing and pleasing to the eye.
And Lu Yu was not in a hurry to make tea, but after boiling the water, he crossed his arms and admired Zheng Keke's movements with a smile.
I have to say that it is a pleasure to watch a superb beauty like Zheng Keke make tea......
After a while, Zheng Keke had already brewed the tea, and then raised his beautiful eyes to look at Lu Yu.
When she saw Lu Yu staring at herself with a smile, her heart suddenly jumped slightly, and her pretty face was unconsciously dyed with a layer of redness.
"You...... Don't you make tea, see what I do?"
Lu Yu smiled bluntly: "Of course I appreciate beautiful women, no wonder some people say that beauty and tea complement each other, and today I really understand." ”
While speaking, Lu Yu raised his hand to test the heat of the water in the pot, and said with a smile: "The time and temperature are just right!"
I saw that he directly took a glass, poured boiling water about 70 to 80 degrees into the cup, and poured the water out after the walls of the cup were warm.
Then put the prepared tea directly into the glass from the tea bowl and fill the cup with a little boiling water......
Everyone couldn't help but feel strange when they saw him making tea like this.
Uncle Liu couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Lu, don't you use a teapot to make tea?"
Lu Yu gently shook the glass and replied: "Whether it is a pot or a cup, it is a tool for making tea! ”
Uncle Liu frowned and said, "But this tea ......"
Lu Yu smiled, put the glass next to his nose and smelled it, and saw that the tea had fused with the leaves, and the tea fragrance was also emanating, so he continued to pour water into the cup until it was seven or eight points full.
After doing this, he smiled and said, "Uncle Liu, that honest tea seller didn't lie to you, it's just that the brewing method of each tea is different, just like you, Wuyang Chunyu." ”
As he spoke, he gently placed the glass on the table......
Suddenly, the tea leaves shaped like pine needles gently fall to the bottom of the cup like rain, and then with the light blue tea soup, it suddenly makes people feel like watching the drizzle in spring!
At the same time, Lu Yu suddenly whispered: "The light thunder fell overnight, and the light and tiles were uneven. The affectionate peony contains spring tears, and the powerless rose lies on the branches. ”
What a poem! There is not a single word of rain in the whole poem, but the feeling of spring rain moisturizing things is really presented in front of you!
Watching the tea, beautiful, the spring rain falls, and the charm rises.
And this poem is even more appropriate, it is an excellent sentence to describe this tea and this scene!
Everyone was stunned in their hearts, and then a strange look appeared in their eyes, they didn't expect Lu Yu to have such a literary brilliance!
In fact, this poem was not written by Lu Yu at all, but there is no such thing as Qin Guan's well-known "Spring Day" in this world.
This sentence "a light thunder overnight" is an excellent description of the original world's tea of "Wuyang Spring Rain"!
But of course the old men in the teahouse don't know this......
After watching Zheng Keke's beauty and tea complement each other, and now I see Lu Yu's poems and tea are natural, everyone only thinks that today's tea fight is really unexpectedly exciting!
"Good poetry! Good tea!" Zheng Xi suddenly praised the case!
The corners of Lu Yu's mouth lifted slightly, and he said: "It is because of this poem that I call this tea Wuyang Spring Rain." When Uncle Liu took out this tea, I already knew that it must be the tea leader in this tea fight, and I was sure that this tea fight would win. ”
After that, he poured the tea soup in the cup into the fair cup, divided the tea for everyone one by one, and then rushed into the tea again.
Before everyone took a cup to drink, Lu Yu said: "Wuyang Chunyu tea, its taste is slightly bitter, but it is sweet and sweet, sweet and mellow after bitterness, the aroma is clear and long-lasting, and it contains a unique orchid fragrance......
Speaking of this, he suddenly turned his head to look at Zheng Keke and said with a smile: "If my guess is right, Yizhou Wenshan green tea happens to also have the aroma of orchids and osmanthus, right?
At this moment, Zheng Keke has also tasted the spring rain in Wuyang, and her beautiful eyes are lowered and she doesn't know what she is thinking.
Uncle Liu was even more busy picking up the teacup and tasting it carefully, then his eyes lit up, and he smiled: "Haha! I really didn't see the wrong person, just like Xiao Lu said, this tea is good tea!"
Saying that, he excitedly pulled Lu Yu and asked, "Xiao Lu, why does the tea I make taste different from the tea you brew?"
Lu Yu said with a smile: "It's very simple, if the tea is slightly bitter, after the tea is woken up first using the tea shaking method I just used, the tea will be fully soaked, and the bitterness will naturally return to sweetness faster." ”
"I see! I see! Xiao Lu, I didn't expect you kid to be so powerful! I was completely convinced this time!" Uncle Liu laughed and gave a thumbs up, praising Lu Yu endlessly.
After drinking Wuyang Chunyu tea, the rest of the people also nodded and praised.
And at this moment, Zheng Keke suddenly raised his head and said: "Wuyang Chunyu Tea is good, but it may not be better than my Wenshan Green Tea, this game can only be regarded as a draw." ”
Draw?
Uncle Zhang, Li Bo and others were stunned, but at this time, many people had already tasted Wenshan green tea again, and they also respected Wenshan green tea very much.
Zheng Xi also nodded lightly after drinking two kinds of tea, looked at Lu Yu with a smile and said, "Xiao Lu, if you don't tell Coco about the second boiling water before, it is estimated that you have won this game." ”
Seeing that Zheng Xi also said the same, Lu Yu couldn't help but pick up Wenshan green tea and taste it......
In his memory, the best way to make Yizhou Wenshan tea should be semi-fermented oolong tea, which was called "Wenshan Baochong tea" in the original world, with a fragrant and distant fragrance, and was known as the top grade of oolong tea.
And now the Wenshan tea that has been made into green tea tastes not bad, and there are no obvious flaws, it seems to be really on par with his own Wuyang Chunyu?
You must know that although there are still some problems with this Wuyang Spring Rain Tea today, it is not much different from what Lu Yu saw in the original world!
Even if it is not the best, it is enough to be proud of the rest of the Chinese tea in the current world.
What's the problem?
Lu Yu frowned slightly, and suddenly his eyes lit up!
He almost forgot! Even the original world's "Wenshan Baochong Tea" had only undergone a very slight fermentation!
In fact, Wenshan Baochong tea is a kind of tea between green tea and oolong tea, and it is only because it has undergone a very slight fermentation that it is classified as oolong tea!
Nowadays, although this Wenshan green tea is not fermented, the taste is definitely not too bad......
Seeing that Lu Yu was silent, everyone thought that he had nothing to say.
Uncle Liu patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Xiao Lu, it doesn't matter if you draw, but your niece's tea is Yizhou tea after all." ”
Zheng Keke couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, as his father Zheng Xi said, if Lu Yu hadn't explained the matter of making tea with two boiling water before, he would have lost now!
But no matter what, as long as you don't lose, you don't have to follow the bet and Lu Yupai......
But just when everyone thought that this tea fight was about to end on average!
Lu Yu suddenly shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't accept this draw." ”
Don't accept it?!
Zheng Keke was stunned when he heard this, everyone has already tasted the two kinds of tea, is Lu Yu still unwilling to face the reality?
Zheng Xi groaned slightly, then suddenly nodded and smiled: "Xiao Lu is right, the tea fight is not over yet." ”
