Chapter 273: In the palm of your hand

Hongmei instructed the maidservant to clean the room, then she turned around, walked over, and knelt on the cushion to make tea for Chen Qiuniang. It turned out to be the set of kung fu tricks she personally trained to make tea at the feast of the wealthy, and her gesture was even stronger than the group of people when the feast of the wealthy family opened.

"The girl's technique is like wearing a flower butterfly, extremely elegant, and with the girl's proud temperament, it is simply a gesture that can be included in the painting." Chen Qiuniang knelt opposite her and gathered her sleeves.

Hongmei raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "This is the creation of an old man of my son-in-law, and the son let us learn in order to commemorate the old man." ”

Chen Qiuniang's heart was stunned, knowing that the old person Jiang Fan was referring to was her, but she still let out an "oh" on her lips and said, "It seems that she must be an important person for the son." ”

Hongmei smiled and didn't continue, just brought a cup of black tea over and said, "It's cold, this kind of tea nourishes the stomach." ”

"The color of this soup is clear and ruddy, and the fragrance is extremely elegant, so the way to drink tea is very novel." Chen Qiuniang took the tea, knowing that it was the secret book she recorded in the feast of the wealthy family, and asked Chen Wenzheng to go to the tea garden to order the black tea himself. The tea-making technology was also provided to the tea farmers. At the same time, she also provided several tea-making techniques, which were specially used by wealthy families.

The tea leaves of this era are pure and natural, pollution-free, and the original handmade zuò is used, which is less simple to stir-fry mechanically, but the taste and soup color are more pure.

"I think Gongzi is also full of luxury, so I naturally know that Yunlai Hotel, which has risen in recent years." Hongmei calmly brewed tea, her tone soft and slow.

"I've heard about it, I've been to eat their food, it's delicious." Chen Qiuniang drank a cup, this black tea naturally can't brew the true taste of black tea using this tea brewing method, but in this way, the taste of black tea will be more pure.

"Has Childe ever been to a wealthy feast?" Hongmei handed over another cup of tea, and in the white porcelain cup, the red soup rippled.

Chen Qiuniang took it, shook her head, and said, "Where is the feast of a wealthy family, where can a person like me who is at peace with what happens." ”

"The feast of the wealthy is a real elegant place." Hongmei said.

"Oh? The girl seems to have been? Chen Qiuniang pretended to be surprised and talked to Hongmei, but in fact she wanted to know about Jiang Fan's activities in the past few years, and wanted to know what happened to him, and why the lovely young man who talked a lot in the past is now so vicissitudes.

Hongmei nodded and said, "In the past two years, I have followed my son to the north and south, and I have been to a wealthy banquet in Yuzhou. ”

"In the past, in Shuzhong, I heard that the feast of the wealthy family was the best in Liuhe Town, Meizhou." Chen Qiuniang drank the black tea in the cup, and then said slowly.

Hongmei shook her head and said, "I am on official business, and my son can't go." ”

Chen Qiuniang said "oh", and Wuzi drank another cup of tea, but Hongmei smiled and said, "Why does the son only drink tea?" These pastries are also good. ”

"This tea is really delicious." Chen Qiuniang had no choice but to say.

Hongmei smiled, Chen Qiuniang was embarrassed to pick up the pastries and taste them, and praised the cakes, in fact, she knew that the recipes of these pastries came from the feast of the wealthy, but the taste was a little wrong.

"The pastry chef is amazing." After Chen Qiuniang finished eating two pastries, she drank tea and praised.

"It was Gongzi who sent someone to deliberately go to a wealthy family to eat for more than a month, and came back to ponder." Hongmei said.

"Is your son-in-law's deceased the chef of a wealthy feast?" Chen Qiuniang's sudden realization.

Hongmei shook her head and said, "I see that you are also an important guest of my son-in-law, so I will tell you, don't be curious to ask who my son-in-law's deceased is." ”

"Thank you girl for reminding me, Su Wenying remember." Chen Qiuniang knelt down and bowed to Hongmei.

Hongmei was shocked and said, "Master Su, this is absolutely unacceptable. ”

"The girl can afford it." Chen Qiuniang rolled up her sleeves and smiled.

Hongmei was about to say something when she heard someone talking in the courtyard outside and the neighing of horses. Hongmei paused, and then said, "It's the son who is back." As she spoke, she stood up and bowed out.

Chen Qiuniang also stood up, still thinking in her heart: What position does this Jiang Fan hold in this Cangzhou Mansion? And did he recognize her as Chen Qiuniang?

While she thought, she also got up and straightened her clothes, walked out of the main hall and stood under the eaves of the porch. At that time, Jiang Fan happened to come in from the outer courtyard bypassing the Zhaobi, and walked extremely fast, and a purple cloak was actually floated by him. Hongmei greeted him and took the sword in his hand and asked, "Childe, Master Su is here." ”

Jiang Fan looked up and saw Chen Qiuniang, a smile appeared on his lips, and said, "Jiang is still worried that the son will not come to my plum garden as a guest." ”

"Jiang Gongzi warmly invited, how can he live up to the good intentions. What's more, on this snowy day, you have to meet a confidant, a small red clay stove, and a drink, which is really a beautiful thing in life. Chen Qiuniang said aloud under the eaves of the porch.

Jiang Fan smiled, waved his hand at Hongmei, and said, "You go and prepare dinner, Su Gongzi is a person from Shuzhong, just the taste of Shuzhong cuisine." ”

"Yes." Hongmei saluted, and then asked, "Who do you want to summon to serve?" ”

Jiang Fan was silent for a moment and said, "Let Green Song come." ”

Hongmei said respectfully, "Yes." Then, he took Jiang Fan's sword and turned straight to the west wing. Jiang Fan strode up and took off his riding boots at the door, and a maidservant girl had already come over with warm water and towels. first washed his face, and when he retreated, the other two maidservants came over with towels and hot water to wash Jiang Fan's feet and change into clean and soft shoes for him.

Jiang Fan stood up, took off his cloak to the two maidservants, and waved his hand to signal them not to disturb. The maidservants retreated, and Jiang Fan smiled and said, "Master Su, please come inside." ”

"Jiang Gongzi, please." Chen Qiuniang made a gesture of please, the two looked at each other and smiled, and walked into the main hall with a smile. As soon as Chen Qiuniang sat down on the cushion, Jiang Fan began to boil water to wash the cup, and when the water was boiling, he said straight to the point: "When I look at it, I think it's you." ”

"Me?" Chen Qiuniang was taken aback. She is confident that her talent in disguise will not be recognized, what does this Jiang Fan mean? Could it be because he had learned disguise?

"Someone asked me to take care of you." Jiang Fan squinted on the cushion and said.

"Who?" Chen Qiuniang looked surprised.

Jiang Fan pursed his lips and said, "An old man of yours said that the apprentice of the Lonely Light Son is wandering the rivers and lakes and may go to the north to wander, let us all be vigilant and watch." Although that little girl has good disguise skills and good skills, she has little experience in the rivers and lakes and lacks a string in her brain, so let's all watch it closely. ”

"Who said that? What a brain is missing a string. Can you say this kind of thing? Chen Qiuniang suddenly became angry, she could tell that her brain was missing a string or something, these things were done by Lu Chen or Zhang Ci, or her second master.

"How many old people can you have? How many of your old friends have such abilities? Jiang Fan's tone was very disdainful.

Not to be outdone, Chen Qiuniang glanced at her and said, "Hmph, there are still several old people who ask for food at the door." Why can't I have a few old people? ”

Jiang Fan pursed his lips and said, "It's really like that person said, you don't have a good temper." ”

"What's wrong with my temper?" Chen Qiuniang pouted, anyway, now she doesn't have to pretend to be a noble son, Jiang Fan already knows that she is the apprentice of the floating light child.

"Look, I've only said two sentences, and you've said a lot." Jiang Fan said with a sigh of relief, and began to wash the teacup with great grace.

"That's because you speak with insults, and you can't be killed." Chen Qiuniang said categorically.

"I'm telling you what your old man said." Jiang Fan pouted aggrievedly.

Chen Qiuniang pretended to be angry and "snorted" and said, "Who is it?" Is it my master, or is it Zhang Ci? Or Lu Chen? ”

"The little girl is very bold. He even questioned his master, and called the names of these famous people. Jiang Fan laughed, this laugh was hearty, but there was a shadow of the young man back then.

"Who the hell is it? Jiang Gongzi talked about it. Chen Qiuniang's tone was coquettish unconsciously.

Jiang Fang casually washed the cup, scooped out some black tea with a spoon, put it in the teacup, and said, "What about Zhang Youqi." To be honest, I didn't know that such a cold-faced person could say such a thing, and I really didn't believe it if it weren't for the letter from his personal guard, and his handwriting. ”

"Zhang Ci?" Chen Qiuniang actually guessed about it. If it weren't for Zhang Ci, it would have been her master.

"Uh-huh." Jiang Fan nodded.

Chen Qiuniang glanced at him and said, "Jiang Gongzi, you sue me, what did he say?" If you sue me, I will sue you for a new brewing method of black tea. ”

Jiang Fan paused, looked at her, and said suspiciously, "I haven't heard that your master understands tea." ”

"I know it myself, no? It's long-winded, and after the door, the rivers and lakes are knights. Do you even say it? Chen Qiuniang's voice raised an octave, a little strong.

Jiang Fan didn't laugh angrily, and said, "It turns out that Miss Su Ying has also heard of my prestige. ”

Chen Qiuniang rolled her eyes at him and pouted. Jiang Fan laughed and said, "Zhang Ci said that you are a very interesting girl, you are good at disguise, and you are a closed disciple of the Fuguang Prince." But the rivers and lakes are inexperienced, and they are full of curiosity about the surrounding Yiqiē, this time I am afraid that I will come to the border city, and I want our brothers in the border city to watch the point, once they find you, protect it, the situation in the border city is complicated and dangerous. ”

"I know how to disguise, how did you find me? Didn't he say that? Chen Qiuniang asked suspiciously.

Jiang Fan's face changed when he heard this question, then frowned, and made a pot of black tea without saying a word, before he whispered: "Zhang Ci said, your eyes are exactly the same as one of our old friends, even if your eyes will change, but those eyes will not change at all." ”

"Ah, it seems that I haven't cultivated enough." Chen Qiuniang's words are sincere.

"You've cultivated very well. It's that we remember it all too well. Jiang Fan sighed and held a cup of black tea for her.

Chen Qiuniang took it, but he looked straight into her eyes and said, "In the past few years, I have found so many people, only your eyes are the most like her." No wonder Zhang Ci will directly say that you are like her. ”

"Who is she?" Chen Qiuniang asked timidly.

Jiang Fan was silent, but there was a timid female voice outside the door, saying, "Son, Green Song is here to serve." ”R1152
