Chapter 22: Searching for the Dead

Shui Zhenfei picked up the twenty yuan on the table, didn't care about Shui Ran and Shui Cao, and left directly. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, the customer had just finished breakfast, and there was still a little time before lunch, Shui Ran and Shui Cao couldn't find half of them in the store, Xiaohong had already hid in the kitchen, and the water bottle would not show up, sitting in the position and muttering for a while, and then left after a while.

Yingzi took the customer to the "Flower and Full Moon" box on the left, and briefly introduced the characteristics of the store, and the three guests found it a little interesting.

"Boss, I heard that the lotus tea in your store has become famous, let's brew it for us first." One of them, a tall man with gold-rimmed glasses, spoke.

"Okay, may I ask if I will make tea for everyone, or will I do it myself? Pushing open this screen is the tea room, and everyone can do their own convenience. Yingzi stepped forward, pushed the screen of pear blossom and plum carving a little away, and said.

"It's really a different kind of cave, Wei Ting, you see that the lotus flowers in the yard are blooming so well, do you want to go out and have a look?" Another slightly older man saw the courtyard outside the screen and said to a young man beside him.

"Grandpa, it's rare to have such a view this season, and the store is indeed more attentive." The young man, who was called Wei Ting, walked up to the tearoom table and looked out of the courtyard and praised.

"It's not just something that can be done with your heart, have you ever noticed that as soon as you enter the store, there is a faint fragrance, go, go out and see what kind of lotus it is? Li Min, do you want to go out for a walk together? Grandpa Wei Ting said to the middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses beside him.

"Okay, I noticed the smell too. It's very mellow, it seems that I have gained a lot from this trip with the old man. Li Min said with a smile.

"Uncle Li is really right, every time I go out with my grandfather. You're sure to find something weird and funny. Wei Ting said.

The three of them laughed and walked down the tea room, there were two huge water tanks outside, and inside were the red houses that had just been cultivated by Xiao Lu, which looked like a camellia stained with rouge, and the red and gorgeous were extremely beautiful.

When designing the landscape of the yard, Die'er also spent a lot of effort. I don't want to lose that wild interest, but I can't be as casual as the mountains. Later, it was decided to learn from the two large tanks in the ancient yard, and Xiaolu cultivated them that could be cultivated in the tanks. At the same time, it can also open a full house the size of a bowl.

The courtyard is not big, the pillars of the cloister are crawling with honeysuckle, the little bees coming and going are very busy, and Wei Ting and his party bypass the big camphor in front of the tea room. Only then did I discover a different scenery in the yard.

Butterfly borrows Wanli incense. Attracting butterflies is the biggest feature of the yard, and on the opening day, a group of butterflies are flying.

Li Min walked in front of a Wanli incense plant, squatted down to study it for a while, and didn't dare to determine its variety.

"It's rare, there is a bowl lotus you don't know, how about it? See what you don't have? Grandpa Wei joked.

"Hehe, to put it mildly, the lotus flowers in this yard. I don't know anybody. Li Min pushed his glasses and smiled.

"Really, fake. Uncle Lee? Could it be that the owner of this lotus is a hermit master? Wei Ting touched his chin and guessed.

"It's not uncommon for people to have people outside of people and heavens outside of them. But to be honest, I'm quite interested in this master. What kind of person can cultivate such a spiritual flower? Li Min walked up to another green lotus and said.

"Want to know? Won't you ask the proprietress later? Let's go, go back, and enjoy the lotus while drinking tea. Grandpa Wei Ting put his hands behind his back and spoke.

"I think it's grandpa, are you curious? Tell me, how many do you know here? Wei Ting grinned.

"Stinky boy, dare to bury your grandfather and me, if you have the ability, you can also tell me one, two, three?" Grandpa pretended to be angry.

"Don't, you know, I'm definitely not modest when it comes to food, but as for this lotus, hehehe, let me be spared." Wei Ting said with both hands.

The three of them returned to the room, Yingzi had just prepared the snacks and tea, and when she saw the three of them coming from the courtyard, she said casually: "Have you gone to the courtyard to enjoy the lotus?" The tea you will taste later is made from one of the lotus flowers in the garden. ”

"Really? Drinking flower tea is a real lotus? I thought it was the tea with the fragrance of lotus flowers. Wei Ting was surprised.

"Hehe, this is our own cooking, the amount is not large, I don't know if it is to everyone's taste." After speaking, Yingzi picked up the tray and prepared to go out.

"Eh, boss, I want to ask you about something, and I don't know whether it's convenient or not." Li Min asked as he lifted the frame of his glasses.

"You ask, I'm not sure if I know." Yingzi smiled.

"Okay, may I ask what kind of lotus flowers are in your yard? Who cultivated it? Li Min paused, but still asked.

"Oh, you ask this lotus? It's inconvenient to say, it's my two daughters who have nothing to do. It is very fragrant but the general appearance is called Wanlixiang, the few plants in the vat are called full house, and the green lotus that blooms is directly called green lotus. Li Min almost didn't mention it in one breath, what do you mean by tossing it casually? If anyone can toss a new variety, wouldn't it make them have no way to live?

"How old is your daughter? The lotus flowers in this yard are all their masterpieces? Grandpa Wei Ting couldn't help but confirm again.

"Yes, my two daughters are both three years old this year, and they sometimes play in the store, so they just came home today. Do you need to prepare lunch today? Yingzi asked.

Because the store has just opened, it is still in the promotion stage, and few people know about the box, that is, in ancient times, a few old friends will be invited to come over for tea from time to time to pass the time. Today, the three guests Shui Qing didn't make it clear, and they didn't know when it could be solved when they looked at the situation outside, so it was easier to ask directly.

"Is there lunch here? I thought it was just a few snacks, but this is my grandson, and he's hungry. Walking on the street and asking for directions, where to eat is recommended, several people recommend it here. Therefore, I still need the proprietress to make an introduction. Grandpa Wei Ting laughed.

"Hehe, everyone is willing to take care of our business. Our family originally made an early meal, but we slowly bought this store, and it didn't open for a long time. Our specialty is a pastry made with lotus flowers. You can try it later. The box you are in can prepare meals, but it is a vegetarian meal, and I don't know if you are used to it. Yingzi finished introducing. Looking at everyone with a smile.

"Suzhai? Lotus as a confectionery? It's a little interesting, then let's drink tea and eat pastries first, and at noon we will prepare a table of vegetarian food, as for the dishes, according to your characteristics, the amount of three people, see if it's okay? Li Min looked at the old man's look of interest and said directly.

"Okay. Then I'll go to the kitchen to prepare first, the ingredients are all grown by our family, and it's only enough to entertain two tables of guests every day. Let's take it slowly. If you need anything, you can ring the bell and someone will come and add water. Yingzi pointed to a twine path by the door and went out. Close the box door.

Wei Ting first picked up a piece of crystal cake and put it in his mouth. Before he could swallow it all, he directly put the plate on his chest, looking like a chicken protecting his food.

Li Min was boiling water to make tea, and when he saw him like that, he smiled and said, "The last time I saw you protect food was when I was five years old, Liu Lao, it seems that Wei Ting is very satisfied with dim sum." ”

Wei Ting ate too quickly, so he took a big sip of the sugar water in front of him, and tasted back: "I finally know why the people on the street are full of praise for Hezhai." Grandpa, you taste. It's really good! ”

"You're all on your chest, let me taste something?" Liu Lao looked at the plate on Wei Ting's chest and said with a smile.

"Hehe, this is a subconscious action, come, give you a taste, sweet with a fragrance of the food itself, it is a floral fragrance but I haven't smelled this smell, no, it's a little familiar!" Wei Ting directly twisted a piece with his hand and handed it to Liu Lao's mouth, and his mind wandered.

"Isn't it just the smell of lotus flowers outside? The proprietress also said just now that lotus petals as ingredients are the characteristics of their store. Liu Lao also had to agree with Wei Ting's words, it was really delicious, and he couldn't help but take a piece himself.

"Ah, there's the last piece left, then Uncle Li, I'll leave this piece to you." Looking at Wei Ting's painful appearance, Li Min and Liu Lao smiled back and forth.

"Then I'm welcome, seeing that Liu Lao has never eaten sweets, he can't help but eat the second piece today, and it will be a big loss if he doesn't taste it." Wei Ting's eyes saw the pastry in Li Min's hand enter his mouth, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Li Min and Liu Lao were amused by his actions again.

"Isn't there something else? Since you were a child, you have eaten all over the capital with this mouth, what? Does a piece of crystal cake here hurt your heart like this? Liu Lao picked up a plate in front of him and handed it to Wei Ting, and said with a smile.

"Grandpa, you're laughing at me again! It's just that this pastry comes from the taste of the ingredients themselves, and I can eat it, so I think it's even more rare. Wei Ting said.

Just as the water was boiling, and when the tea tube was opened, a rich fragrance spread on the tip of the noses of the three of them, and their attention was directly attracted by the tea in Li Min's hand.

"The tea set here is also quite special, a bit like kung fu tea, but I give up the common purple clay pot, such a glass pot is really rare." Li Min played.

The tea sets in the two boxes were made by Die'er drawing drawings Torin Xianguang, and Lin Xianguang was also attracted by this exquisite tea set at that time, which was actually the tea set for drinking flower tea in the previous life, but it was more elegant under Die'er's transformation. With a wave of his hand, he customized a hundred sets, saying that he would sell it with lotus tea in the future, and these two boxes were the cooking method of this flower tea.

After Li Min saw that the water was boiling, he rang the copper bell and waited for Yingzi to come in and ask how to use the tea set. There was a stove with no carbon in it, only a small candle, and Li Min thought to himself that it should be a candle to boil water, right? After seeing Yingzi's movements, they directly turned the question sentence into an affirmative sentence, and they were stunned when they watched the lotus flowers bloom in the water, and then a more intense lotus fragrance lingered in the mist.

Looking at such a delicate flower rippling in the amber tea soup in his hand, where can he be willing to eat, Yingzi saw that everyone only looked at it and didn't drink it, and thought it was unappetizing, so he was about to ask.

"It's so beautiful, what if I can't even drink it?" Wei Ting's words amused everyone, and Yingzi knew that everyone was not dissatisfied, but afraid of destroying the beauty.

"If you just look at it and don't drink it, it's a real waste of its beauty, we not only have to enjoy it visually, but also discover another layer of beauty from the taste." Wei Ting not only glanced sideways a few more times because of Yingzi's words, but only then did he realize the difference in this woman.

That's a good thing to say. It turns out that flower tea can also have such a long aftertaste, which is really rare! Liu Lao took a sip of the tea soup in the cup, closed his eyes and slowly savored it.

"My grandmother said that drinking this flower tea can actually see through a person's state of mind, not everyone can taste its aftertaste, and everyone perceives the taste differently." Yingzi smiled, looking at the people at this table, she couldn't help but say a few more words.

"Is there one? I just think it's so fragrant~~" Wei Ting took a sip, listened to Yingzi say this, and tried it again, until a cup of tea was drunk, and he tasted such a taste.

Li Min was speechless for a long time, the box fell silent, and Yingzi gently put down the teapot in her hand and exited the box.

"This family is a bit interesting, and I must pay a visit when I have the opportunity." Liu Lao said suddenly.

Wei Ting was eating happily, the dim sum here was really to his liking, and he even thought about packing some to take back to the gang of mouthy guys to taste, to see if they could tell if they could say if they were here or not.

"Hehe, Elder Liu, if things go well, don't take some time to take a walk, maybe you will encounter some surprises." Li Min continued to boil water to make tea.

"Yes, after looking for so many years, the last definite news is that I came to the vicinity of this town, but after all, it has been a long time, how many people can remember what happened back then?" Liu Lao sighed.

"Don't be discouraged grandpa, since you've been looking for so many years, there's no reason to give up now, plus isn't this news very accurate?" Wei Ting also comforted.

"That is, after searching for it all the way, we have hardly given up any clues, and all kinds of signs show that Mrs. is a very wise person, and she will definitely protect herself!" Li Min said.

It is said that after Shui Qing dealt with his father's affairs, she went to the kitchen to find a water bottle to ask about the situation, and she didn't hide it, including how many snacks she ate and how many bowls of sugar water she drank clearly.

Shui Qing knew that Yingzi had been very tired recently, and she didn't have much time to rest, but fortunately, everyone's physical foundation was good, and this continuous rotation did not reach the point where she couldn't bear it. Yingzi worked hard for this small family, and his family also came to the door to make trouble, making some unreasonable requests, thinking about the matter of promising to give his father twenty yuan a month in order to deal with it quickly, and couldn't help but have a headache.

Shui Qing sat at the front desk in a daze, Yingzi just came back from making tea, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw her father-in-law and sister-in-law leaving, but why was her husband's face still cloudy?

Thinking that the guests in the box were still waiting, I decided to put this matter aside for the time being, and then go home in the evening and ask in detail. Then he walked quickly into the kitchen, instructed the water bottle to prepare the ingredients, and began to think about the menu for the evening. (To be continued.) )
