Chapter 072: Alice's Story
"Nothing, remembering a past. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info: "Of course Alice won't tell Zuo Qian.
"That must be a very happy old day." Zuo Qian looked at Alice's radiant eyes, knew it in his heart, and didn't ask any more.
She guessed that the timing belonged to Alice's unique happiness.
As they spoke, after a while, the two came to a tea restaurant with quaint decorations, and Alice took Zuo Qian's hand and stopped, "It's here." β
"Handle." Zuo Qian looked up at the still quaint lintel and read.
Zuo Qian didn't really stay in C City when he was a child, and he didn't know much about C City, but in the past few days, after walking down a few times, he felt that C City was full of strong simplicity and elegance and a strong scholarly style.
"Yes, we used to come here a lot when we were in college, and the consumption was not expensive, and the worries in it were especially delicious." Alice walked in while holding Zuo Qian's hand, and introduced it enthusiastically.
That excited and proud tone, if Zuo Qian didn't taste it, it would be a great regret and a sin of gluttony.
"Boss Huang, I want a pot of Biluochun before Ming, a drawer of crab roe crispy and a drawer of white boiled crispy whitebait, two cups, and send them to the second floor first." Alice took her hand and walked to the counter and whispered to a man in a green coat with a pair of round glasses on the bridge of his nose.
That look of confidence and Alice in the bridal shop just now were almost like two people.
Seeing that he was fine, Zuo Qian threw away Alice's hand and began to look around, looking at the tired decoration style of the store.
This is a big room of forty or fifty square meters, with three walls, and on one side is all kinds of tea leaves in good-looking glass bottles, neatly placed, and concave with good-looking shapes, and there is a small counter in the corner.
On one side are some delicate or purple sand or ceramic tea sets, which are also neatly presented in front of you, which makes people feel the urge to love and take them for themselves.
On the other hand, there are some more distinctive gadgets, which are unique to the local area, unique, and desirable.
Zuo Qian looked at everything here with an urge to hug him home, looked at every piece of his eyes and was reluctant to leave, and he didn't know what Alice and Boss Huang talked about, until Alice called herself, she reluctantly came back to her senses.
"Miss Qin hasn't been here for a long time." Boss Huang asked without raising his head while remembering in the small notebook, and he could see that he was very familiar with Alice.
"Got a little busy lately? By the way, this is my friend Zuo Qian. Alice said and pushed Zuo Qian in front of Boss Huang's eyes, and introduced it very grandly.
"Miss Zuo, hello, the contemptible person is the owner of this shop, and your surname is Huang." Boss Huang raised his head, pushed the eyes on the bridge of his nose, squinted and looked at Zuo Qian carefully, and stretched out his hand very politely.
"Hello, Boss Huang." Zuo Qian also stretched out his hand politely, and looked at Boss Huang carefully between his hands, feeling that in addition to Boss Huang's own clothes, there is also a literati style that has long felt the influence and smudge of classical culture.
"Two upstairs, please." Sure enough, after Boss Huang shook hands very gentlemanly, he walked out of the counter, and guided the two of them upstairs with good manners.
"Thank you." Zuo Qian has been living in the north since he was ten years old, and he rarely feels this kind of rich classical etiquette anymore, and he is very flattered.
After the two of them went up to the second floor, they directly picked up a window seat in the corner and sat down.
Zuo Qian looked out the window, and the view here was very open, and the pedestrians and scenery on the street were in full view.
For example, in front of the food store across the window, a mother pulls a four or five-year-old boy to buy delicious snacks, and the little boy is grinning at the delicious food in the hands of the salesperson.
There is also an old woman on the street corner who carries a basket of flowers and sells magnolia flowers everywhere, and she has to stop for a second or two every time she sees someone.
There is also the girl who has just put on the white magnolia flower, and her face is full of confidence, and her whole face is rippling with satisfaction and joyful smiles.
Seeing this, Zuo Qian seemed to be infected, and a shallow smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Sometimes people's hearts are so easy to satisfy, or a small bag of snacks, or a beautiful mountain flower.
"Zuo Qian, Zuo Qian, what are you looking at?" I don't know that Alice called several times, and shook her hand in front of Zuo Qian's eyes, Zuo Qian turned her head hesitantly, "Alice." β
"Zuo Qian, what are you looking at?" Alice asked curiously.
"I'm looking at the street scene outside."
"Oh, the delicious food is here, you can taste it."
"Oh." Zuo Qian looked sideways at the tea table, and sure enough, he didn't know when two drawers of snacks, a pot of tea, and two cups had been placed.
"Zuo Qian, you can taste it, this is the pre-Ming Biluochun of our C City, which is famous all over the world." Alice enthusiastically poured a full cup of tea into the shallow cup on the left.
"It's delicious, and it has a sweet aftertaste." Zuo Qian picked up the teacup and tasted it gently, felt good, took another sip, squinted his eyes and tasted for a while before saying.
She basically didn't drink much tea in the north, and occasionally made some when her adoptive father was around. Once Zuo Qian tasted it, it was a very strong bitter taste, bitter to the heart, and she was unwilling to disperse for a long time, just like her life experience and life and experience.
Later, Zuo Qian stopped drinking tea, especially green tea, and his favorite drink is boiled water, which can be drunk all day long by boiling a large pot, quenching thirst and being healthy.
So this is the first time Zuo Qian has drunk tea since then, and at the beginning he was worried about bitterness, so he only dared to try shallowly, but he didn't expect it to be a completely different sweetness.
"I didn't lie to you, Boss Huang's family is a tea farmer, these teas are all grown by their own family, natural and pollution-free, and the taste is naturally good, I remember that when I was in middle school, the school also organized us to go to Boss Huang's house to pick tea." Alice said proudly, her eyes full of sweet memories, and then she continued, "It was also that time that I fell in love with my fiancΓ©." β
"At that time, it was the Qingming season, and it was drizzling everywhere. Especially in the mountains, it has just rained, and the muddy mountain roads are a little slippery. I was wearing a pair of newly bought small leather shoes, and I was worried that the shoes would get dirty, so I walked very carefully, but when I accidentally went downhill, I still slipped and fell down, and my shoes fell off. After a pause, Alice took a sip of tea and continued, her eyes full of distress.
After a long time, she always remembered their first acquaintance, and she could have been better at that time.
"I was a little fat and overwhelmed. At this time, he took the initiative to squat down, carried me down the mountain, and found shoes for me, that is, since then I have been inextricably infatuated with him, obsessed with his thin back, and always fantasized about one day lying on his back again. β
"But he never looked at me squarely, even though we were in the same class, even if I went out of my way to find a teacher to change places and sit next to him." Zuo Qian listened quietly to Alice's narration until Alice suddenly stopped going on.
"What happened then?" Zuo Qian looked at Alice, who suddenly stopped, and asked suspiciously. (To be continued.) )
