Everyone walked back to Village Chief Huang's house. Master Zhao and the others said that they would rest for a while, and they had already eaten under the arrangement of Village Chief Huang. Li Zhendong took Lin Huoliang and experienced the food in the deep area outside. Lin Huoliang said bluntly that he was not used to it, saying that there was no chili pepper. This Li Zhendong is really helpless. Where to get chili peppers? When you come to the center of Lingnan, it is difficult to eat chili peppers, and there are few people who eat spicy peppers at this time. Later, Lingnan ate spicy food, which was after the 80s, slowly, from all over the country to eat spicy food.

Village Chief Huang, Boss Huang, and Li Zhendong sat down. What are you doing at this time? Drink tea! Yes, it is tea drinking, which is a culture that has penetrated into the blood of Lingnan people and Hong Kong people.

People in Minato often drink morning tea after washing up every morning. It's the first thing to enjoy life. There is also afternoon tea, afternoon tea, and evening tea. When you go to a restaurant or restaurant to eat, the first thing you will be served is a cup of fragrant tea. There is a saying that can be described: a cup of tea is not beautiful. After the wine and food are full, everyone will also hold tea to clear the greasy. If it's a weekend or holiday, or a family meeting, or a group of people. The bustling restaurant is stuffed with "tea customers". Usually, relatives and friends and even in the business field, they all drink tea to contact their feelings, and in the name of "one cup and two pieces", I don't know how much business has been done! In Minato, if you go out on the streets and pay attention, you will find the word "tea" everywhere. Tea advertisements on trams and double-decker buses. Tea houses scattered throughout Minato Ward. If you pick up a newspaper in Minato, you will find that there are many newspaper supplements with columns with the name of tea.

Most people in Hong Kong like to drink Pu'er tea, which is more resistant to brewing, the tea color is strong enough, not cold or dry, and it has the function of refreshing and eliminating stagnation. In addition, other oolong tea, black tea, green tea, white tea, flower tea, Liubao tea, Gulao tea, instant tea, etc., of course, there are also valuable Longjing, Biluochun, Huangshan Maofeng, Lu'an Gua Pian, Taiping Houkui, Yongxi Fire Tea and so on.

Village Chief Huang came over with a tea tray. Li Zhendong is back to his senses, and this tea drinking is something he likes very much. It's just a pity that Village Chief Huang's tea-drinking utensils are too simple. In later generations, Li Zhendong was at home, and there was a special tea room. There's everything you need to know about drinking tea.

Li Zhendong's sitting posture was originally casual, but when the tea tray was served on the table, he immediately changed his sitting posture. Sit in the middle of the stool, center your body, bring your legs from knees to ankles, keep your upper body straight, your shoulders relaxed, your head and chin slightly tucked, and your hands on the sides of your left and right legs.

Boss Huang was laughing and laughing, and when he saw Li Zhendong sitting in this posture, he was stunned, because this is the formal way of sitting in tea. This is really completely beyond his expectations, is this young man still understanding tea?

Boss Huang has been brewing tea culture since he was a child, "The little brother still knows how to drink tea?" "Boss Huang is even more interested, as the saying goes, I have met a fellow practitioner. Li Zhendong hesitated for a moment, "I know a little bit about it", it is better to be modest. Village Chief Huang didn't care about this, he drank tea, where did he pay so much attention?

Li Zhendong is not polite, anyway, the tea set is simple, so it is naturally not a problem. After looking at the water brought by Village Chief Huang, he smiled bitterly, this is well water. Not so good. The main tea set is still pottery, and it looks like it has been around for years. This one isn't bad. In fact, ceramics is a general term for pottery and porcelain. Porcelain originated from pottery and is the development of pottery production. Pottery is generally made of clay, and a few also use porcelain clay. Porcelain, on the other hand, is made of porcelain stone or porcelain clay. The big aluminum kettle used to boil the water, be careful when boiling the water, and never boil the water "old". It's not good to be too "tender". Boss Huang nodded secretly, and he could see the clue from this point. took the tea caddy sent by the village chief Huang and set aside a little with a teaspoon, this is to enjoy the tea. Abbreviated. In fact, if the guest comes, he should set aside a little tea leaves, put them on the tea tray, and hold them for the guests to enjoy. Because only Li Zhendong is a guest here. Took a look at it, it's a little strange, this is? This kind of tea, Li Zhendong really rarely sees, this is green tea, for sure, the cord is tight and round, some needle-like shapes, and the aroma is fresh.

Seeing Li Zhendong's bowed head and groaning, Boss Huang smiled and groaned, this tea was brought back by him. Li Zhendong raised his head, a little unsure, "This is steamed green tea?" ”。 This type of tea is rare. Boss Huang stretched out his thumb "Brother, good eyesight"

Why is it difficult to identify? This is because Li Zhendong has very little contact with this kind of tea. This steamed green tea is the earliest green tea making method invented in China. It flourished during the Tang and Song dynasties and later spread to Japan. After the popular stir-fried green tea method in Huaguo in the Ming Dynasty, steamed green tea became less and less. Later, most of the products were exported to Japan. On the contrary, Japan has always mainly used the steaming green tea method, and after research, began to implement mechanized production. The popular method in China is the fried green tea, which is divided into long fried green, flat fried green, and flat fried green according to the different shapes after processing and stir-frying. There are also roasted green teas: Huangshan Maofeng, Taiping Houkui, Lu'an Gua Pian, Xinyang Maojian, etc. There is also a kind of sun-dried green tea, which is mostly used as a raw material for pressed tea. Li Zhendong, like most Chinese people, almost always drinks the latter types of tea.

Color green, soup green, and leaf bottom green, which are the characteristics of steamed green tea. The high-grade aroma is fresh, the taste is sweet and mellow.

Li Zhendong's method of brewing is the most common "phoenix three nods". The hand-held kettle is poured high and low three times, which means that the guest is greeted by a triple bow. When the teapot is placed, the spout should not be facing the guest, which means that the guest is invited to leave. There are more particular, turning to pour water, pouring tea, scalding pot and other actions, the right hand must turn in the counterclockwise direction, and the left hand turns in the clockwise direction, indicating the meaning of beckoning "come, come, come", and welcome guests to watch. If it's the opposite, it means "go, go, go".

It is the most effortful when the tea is even. Because the concentration of tea soup must be uniform and consistent. Li Zhendong saw that the water temperature was about 80 degrees, and it was not rolling. In fact, there are many things to do about boiling water, and it is best to cook it quickly. Wait a while, first turn your wrist to flush into a quarter of the water in the container, don't let the tea float on the surface of the water, this is called soaking, after dozens of seconds, the second time you have to use the phoenix three nodding technique to flush into the container, so that the tea leaves turn up and down, and the tea soup is even.
