Chapter 603: Tea Ceremony (Text)

Zhang Meng's eyebrows jumped, this test is too difficult for a beginner.

However, when he heard the last sentence, his whole body was shocked, Zhang Lao meant to accept Ah Chen as an apprentice!

Zhang Meng was a little shocked in his heart, why did Zhang Lao have the intention of accepting apprentices for the first time this time? You must know that in the antique world, Zhang Lao still has a little reputation, if he releases words to accept apprentices, I am afraid that the people in line can line up for a few streets.

Zhang Meng threw an encouraging look at Ah Chen and asked her to cheer.

If you can really succeed in worshipping under Zhang Laomen, it will be enough to feed ten fat people who are delicious and lazy!

Zhang Lao took out a bunch of jade pendants from a box and placed them one by one in front of Ah Chen.

In a moment, fifteen jade pendants were neatly lined up.

Then I put an alarm clock next to it, it's three o'clock, and the exam starts at half past three.

"I'll test you in half an hour, don't look at Yu Pei ...... before that"

Zhang Lao said lightly.

He lowered his head to move the old chair, and Zhang Meng hurried over to help push it over.

Ah Chen gritted her teeth, she carefully looked at the note line by line, her head bowed very low.

"Look up, ten centimeters away from the note."

Zhang Lao suddenly spoke up again, startling Ah Chen, and she raised her head like an electric shock.

It was a little funny to see Zhang Meng like that, and this scene was as if a strict teacher was educating a little girl.

Ah Meng looked at the girl who was biting the pen and reading the notes carefully, and couldn't help but feel a little pity.

You must know that she has also had a happy family since she was a child, but after the great changes in the family, she has been lying in bed for ten years, and it is really hard to imagine how she has spent these ten years.

"By the way, Zhang Lao, do you drink Phoenix tea, the latest spring tea in Xuzhou, the young leaves picked from those old trees are only more than three or two, and you can drink it like a living immortal!"

Zhang Meng leaned over and said with a smile.

Zhang Lao's eyes lit up, and he smiled and said, "You kid, don't think about bribing me with this, let's go and make tea." ”

Zhang Meng followed Zhang Lao Fart out of the door.

Before leaving, Zhang Lao did not forget to warn Ah Chen to do his homework carefully.

Zhang Meng moved two small stools, moved the tea table, and then put a pot of mountain spring water and slowly boiled it.

Seeing that Zhang Lao was a little impatient, he couldn't help but be a little funny.

In the past, Zhang Lao was a good smoker, but after the birth of the youngest grandson in the family, this hobby was ruthlessly deprived to his daughter-in-law, and now Zhang Lao still did not smoke again, he said that his wife would ignore him if he smoked, so tea became Zhang Lao's favorite.

Zhang Lao is half a Chaoshan person, and he has inherited the habit of drinking tea to the extreme, and by the way, Zhang Meng also likes to drink tea very much.

A pot of water is boiled and a cup is heated.

Then pour the tea leaves into the teapot, Zhang Meng deliberately pressed the tea leaves solidly, because after drinking tea all year round, Zhang Lao's taste buds have been covered with a thick layer of cocoons, whether it is eating or drinking tea, the taste must be enough to be able to taste every bit of tea.

A pot of hot water was poured down, and almost at the same time, Zhang Meng had already poured out the tea that had been brewed in it, and his movements were neat.

This step is called tea washing, the water must be hot enough to wash away all the impurities on the tea leaves, and the time to wash the tea can not exceed two seconds, that is, the time of water inlet and water can not be two seconds, so as to wash away the impurities without destroying the flavor of the tea.

"Yes, the tea core has not been turned out, it has not been bad to taste, and the tea art has increased a lot in the past two years." Zhang Lao's eyes lit up, and he said happily.

"That is, this kind of tea is only so much a year, and there can be no waste!"

Zhang Meng was a little proud, and it was not bad to be encouraged by a tea master like Zhang Lao.

A pot of water was poured, Zhang Meng stared at the leaf for about two seconds, watching the leaf turn over and soak it completely, he immediately poured out the tea. 'Guan Gong Patrol City' turned back and forth three times, and just three cups of seven-point tea with a rich fragrance had been formed.

Zhang Lao picked it up and took a sip, then slowly put down the teacup, he squinted slightly, as if he was savoring the taste of the tea.

It took a few minutes before the tea slowly slid down to my stomach.

After drinking, he did not speak, but squinted comfortably, as if he had slept, and did not open his eyes for half a day.

Zhang Meng also drank it violently with a sip of tea, he didn't like Zhang Lao's approach, and he didn't like that way of tasting tea.

Zhang Lao's way of tasting tea is to put the tea in his mouth for a minute, and then stir the tea with his tongue until the fragrance of the tea fills the entire mouth, and then swallow it in small gulps.

In this way, you can fully taste the taste of tea, and people who can drink tea will not drink like Zhang Meng.

However, Zhang Meng still thinks this method is too troublesome, drink tea in one sip, what tastes like it, where does the ink come from?

But this time, after Zhang Meng swallowed it, he felt a little different.

He seems to have the entire esophagus and mouth, and as long as the tea slips over, it becomes a little numb, or swollen, and it is difficult to say what it feels like.

Immediately afterwards, in the esophagus that slid down, there was a burst of heat like steam, and suddenly, Zhang Meng's mouth was filled with a rich tea fragrance, and the taste seemed to be as changing as spring, summer, autumn and winter.

"Waste."

Zhang Lao really couldn't look past it and scolded, but Zhang Meng came back to his senses at this time.

Zhang Meng stuck out his tongue and picked up the teacup again, when he took the second sip, his teacup was already a little bottomed, Zhang Meng just licked it with his tongue this time, but the fragrance was still there.

This feeling is very shocking, he knows that this tea is very expensive and very good, but he didn't expect that it is actually delicious to this Cheng dù, or it can't be said to be delicious, this is already a kind of art.

Zhang Lao slowly tasted the tea, and by the time this cup of tea was finished, a quarter of an hour had passed.

"The best tea, the best roasted tea, together can make zuò out, this tea is worth a thousand gold." Zhang Lao sighed.

"Roasted tea is like cooking, the color and fragrance are all exquisite, and when making zuò tea for the master, a technique was used......"

Zhang Lao said with some sighs.

"What's the method?"

Zhang Meng looked curious, there are so many cats and cats among them, could it be that they used the martial arts miracles taught by the gods?

"The means of blending tea." Zhang Lao said.

"This master's understanding of each type of tea has reached its peak! That's why he can match these three cups of tea soup, phoenix leaves as the main ingredient, but the phoenix tea has a strong and fragrant taste and light color, and there is no such sweet feeling after drinking, and because the taste is too heavy, there is a lack of lightness, and the entrance is not slippery. ”

"This master used three kinds of top-quality tea, oolong, Tieguanyin, and phoenix mixed stir-fry, until the sweetness and pigment of oolong, as well as the smoothness of Tieguanyin, were all integrated into the phoenix tea, so that this kind of tea could be made!"

Zhang Lao suddenly felt a little heartache: "It's a pity that I soaked this little bastard for you, I want to know that it is this kind of tea, how can I not make it for you!" ”

Zhang Lao's face hurt, as if he had pulled a piece of flesh from him. Zhang Lao slowly tasted the tea, and by the time this cup of tea was finished, a quarter of an hour had passed.

"The best tea, the best roasted tea, together can make zuò out, this tea is worth a thousand gold." Zhang Lao sighed.

"Roasted tea is like cooking, the color and fragrance are all exquisite, and when making zuò tea for the master, a technique was used......"
