CHAPTER XXXI

Fu Xiaofan's kitchen is very large, with a traditional stove on one side, kitchen appliances such as ovens and microwave ovens on the other, and a large countertop in the middle. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Xiaofen turned on the stove and began to boil water. "Why don't you use the water from the water dispenser?" Ning Zhiyuan asked suspiciously.

"Grandma said that the water in the water dispenser is boiled repeatedly, which is not good for health, and I usually boil water to make tea." Xiao Fen said and took out a box of tea leaves and a set of tea sets from the cupboard near the door.

"What kind of tea do Mr. Fu and Mr. Su usually like to drink?" Ning Zhiyuan took the tea box that Xiao Fen put on the cooking table in his hand, opened it and smelled it. "My uncle-in-law likes to drink green tea, and he likes Longjing, Maojian and the like. Aunt Xiaofan didn't drink tea before, she likes to drink coffee, and since her uncle moved over, she has started to drink green tea occasionally. Xiaofen said.

Ning Zhiyuan frowned slightly: "The two of them each have a pair of customized cups, you know." "yes, I know." Xiao Fen nodded, "That was specially made by my uncle, one for each of them." ”

"There's the last word of their names on it, huh?" Ning Zhiyuan put down the tea box and asked. Xiao Fen thought for a while and said, "It seems that it is, I haven't looked at it carefully." ”

"And how do you tell the difference between their cups?" Ning Zhiyuan was a little puzzled. "Those two cups are what they use when they go out, but after Aunt Xiaofan left, my uncle-in-law began to use that cup at home." Xiao Fen said sadly, "I know he thinks about Aunt Xiao Fan, so he often looks at that cup." ”

Ning Zhiyuan pursed his lips: "The night Mr. Su's accident, was it the tea you made for him?" "Well......" Xiao Fen thought for a while and said, "I went to call my uncle-in-law at dinner that night, and when he went downstairs to eat, he put the cup in the kitchen and asked me to help him boil the water to make tea."

"Which box of tea is it?" Ning Zhiyuan asked. Xiao Fen took out a green tea box from the cupboard and said, "It's this, Aunt Xiao Fan just bought it back some time ago, and the two of them have been drinking this most of the time recently." ”

Ning Zhiyuan opened the lid of the tea box, there was still half a box of tea leaves inside, he checked the tea box, and there were no different varieties of leaves in it. He closed the lid and returned it to Xiao Fen, and asked, "Did you leave the kitchen that day when you were boiling water to make tea?" ”

Xiao Fen didn't understand what Ning Zhiyuan meant, and looked at him with a wrinkling of brows. Ning Zhiyuan smiled and said, "In this way, you can describe to me the process from the time you boiled water to Mr. Su took the teacup away that day." ”

"It wasn't taken by my uncle, I sent it to him." Xiao Fen recalled: "I boiled the water first, and then put the tea leaves in the cup. When the soup was ready, I brought it into the restaurant. Grandma asked Xue Dong if he had taken vitamins, and Xue Dong said that he had forgotten and asked me to help him go to his room to take off the vitamins. I went upstairs, gave the vitamins to Xuedong, and then went back to the kitchen. When the water was boiled, I poured it into a cup and took it to the restaurant for my uncle. ”

Ning Zhiyuan nodded clearly: "On the morning of Mr. Fu's accident, do you remember who made the tea?" Xiao Fen scratched her head: "Then I don't remember, it's a little too long." But usually in the morning I boil a big pot of boiling water, and they make their own tea. ”

The water in the kettle boiled, Xiaofen turned off the stove, poured the water into the teapot, put the teapot and teacup on a tray, and prepared to serve it to the living room. Ning Zhiyuan didn't continue to ask her anything, and followed her back to the living room. Chen Feng was asking Mrs. Yu for advice on how to plant flowers, only to hear him say: "My dad likes to raise some flowers and plants, but most of them are raised by him." Then he went home to buy them, and my mother always advised him not to harm these flowers anymore, but he just wouldn't listen. ”

Mrs. Yu smiled: "This flower raising is also very knowledgeable, not simply watering and fertilizing." Each plant has its own characteristics, and in order to raise a good pot, you must first understand its habits. ”

After Xiao Fen poured the tea, she stood behind Old Lady Yu. Ning Zhiyuan picked up the cup and tasted it and exclaimed: "This tea is really good, the aroma is secretive." You both taste it too. Chen Feng and Fang Jianye also took a sip and praised together.

Old Lady Yu looked at the three people suspiciously, and asked, "Captain Ning, aren't you just here to drink tea and chat today?" Is there any progress in the case? ”

Ning Zhiyuan put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Look at my memory, I forget about business as soon as I drink tea, which makes you laugh all the time." I heard Miss Yu say that you used to be a pharmacist at the Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in City D, and I would like to ask you some questions. ”

"I can't talk about asking for advice, if there is any problem, Captain Ning can just say it." Old Lady Yu smiled humbly. "That's right, I've heard that tea can detoxify, so I want to learn more about the medicinal properties of tea." Ning Zhiyuan looked at Old Lady Yu.

Old Lady Yu nodded as usual and said, "If you want to say that this tea was first used in medicine in Chinese history, and then gradually evolved into a drink. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) research on tea is mainly focused on the efficacy of whole tea. Modern medical research focuses on the analysis of the active ingredients of various teas. ”

"Tea contains a variety of components, and there are more than 500 known compounds, and there are probably more than 50 basic elements that make up these compounds. Tea also contains a variety of minerals, fourteen trace elements necessary for the human body, all of which are found in tea. ”

"Drinking tea regularly has health benefits, such as lowering cholesterol and blood pressure, improving immunity, losing weight, reducing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular morbidity, and so on. In addition, tea can also eliminate fatigue, refresh and eliminate food, which we usually know. ”

"But when it comes to detoxification," Old Lady Yu paused, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, "Shennong encounters seventy-two poisons every day, and it is just a legend to get tea to solve them." Don't think that if you are poisoned, you can drink some tea, it will not become an elixir, what else do you need a doctor to do. ”

"That's right," Ning Zhiyuan smiled, "If drinking tea can really cure all diseases, then the hospital can be directly changed to a teahouse." What kind of tea do you usually drink? ”

"I prefer to drink kuding tea." Mrs. Yu opened the lid of her teacup and took a sip and said, "Although it is a little bitter, it is more suitable for my physical condition." ”

"I still have a reluctant request," Ning Zhiyuan said with a slight bow, "I don't know if you can let us visit your flower shed." Old Lady Yu raised her eyes and looked at Ning Zhiyuan: "I'm a little tired, let Xiaofen take you there." ”

"Okay, then it's troublesome for Xiaofen." Ning Zhiyuan smiled and said, "You always rest first, and we won't say goodbye to you after we visit." Old Mrs. Yu nodded: "Xiaofen, take care of a few police officers." ”
