Pei Xiu and Fu Xuan were very well informed, and they soon knew the news of Cao Liang's return home, and they pinched it very accurately, it was after Cao Liang had lunch that they came to visit.

People in this era have not yet rubbed the habit of eating, and disturbing others to eat is a very impolite behavior, Cao Cao in his poems, there are such verses: "Zhou Gong vomits, the world returns to the heart." "It's about putting down the dishes and chopsticks to greet the sage halfway through the meal. This also proves from one side that the ancients generally attached more importance to eating, and eating without saying a word, which is the most basic etiquette, let alone disturbing others in the middle of the meal.

As soon as Cao Liang entered the middle hall, Pei Xiu and Fu Xuan both stood up, hugged their fists and saluted: "Brother Cao has returned triumphantly, congratulations!" ”

Cao Liang returned the salute and said with a smile: "It's just a fluke that I picked up a life and came back, why should I be happy?" ”

Pei Xiu said: "I heard the battle report from the front, Brother Cao killed Zhuge Jin, the general of the anti-Wu Dynasty, such an outstanding record, I am afraid that since the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, it is unique, with this merit, Brother Cao will definitely be able to increase the rank and become a knight, and the glory is great." ”

Indeed, Pei Xiu said the truth, since the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, there is really no important minister of Zhuge Jin's level who died in the war, this time Cao Liang killed Zhuge Jin, it is indeed a relatively rare great achievement, and he will definitely be rewarded by the high standard of the imperial court.

Cao Liang smiled indifferently and said, "It's just that I'm a little luckier to pick up such a human head on the battlefield." Ah Fu, serve tea to the guests, Brother Pei, Brother Fu, this time I came back from Huainan, I didn't bring anything else, but I brought some good tea, how about tasting together? ”

Huainan Lu'an's melon slices are one of the top ten famous teas in China, this time Cao Liang went to Huainan, purchased some local mountain tea, such as the treasure, specially brought back to Luoyang.

The habit of drinking tea in the Three Kingdoms era originated from the Qin and Han dynasties, in this era, tea was a relatively luxurious item, which could not be enjoyed by non-dignitaries, and the way of drinking tea was very different from that of later generations.

Since tea has the effect of relieving hangover, for those who are drunk, drinking some tea can reduce the headache symptoms of hangover.

However, Cao Liang is not used to this kind of boiled tea, which is not only bitter and unpleasant, but also destroys the fragrance of the tea itself, so Cao Liang asks his subordinates to brew it directly with boiling water when drinking tea, not to boil it.

The tea brought back from Huainan this time is much more precious than the tea sold in Luoyang City.

The people quickly brought the tea up, Pei Xiu and Fu Xuan were surprised, generally boiled out of the tea soup is turbid, the color is red and dark, but the tea of the Cao family is clear and translucent, slightly glowing with tender yellow color, and the fragrance is high and refreshing, and the aroma is rich.

Pei Xiu exclaimed: "Brother Cao, your tea is really extraordinary, in the land of Huainan, there is really such good tea?" ”

Cao Liang smiled, there is no shortage of good tea in this world, but a lack of good tea making and brewing methods, the tea ceremony skills of the Chinese, that is thousands of years of inheritance and accumulation, continuous improvement to be perfected, the Three Kingdoms era, just the beginning of tea drinking, far from reaching the peak of the heyday, their own carefully selected tea, no wonder Pei Xiu Fu Xuan will be amazed.

"How is it, I haven't seen you for more than half a year, how are you doing?"

Pei Xiu said self-deprecatingly: "It's not the same as before, every day is muddy, there is nothing to do, talking about the Tao, drinking wine and tea, boring to the extreme, like Brother Cao, galloping across the field, killing the enemy, and living a happy life." ”

"That's very easy to do, the next time the army goes out, I will definitely recommend Brother Pei to go with the army."

Pei Xiu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't don't, I'm just talking, Brother Cao, don't take it seriously." ”

Fu Xuan said with a smile: "Ji Yan is used to the days of fat horses and light fur, and he can't stand the hardships of the army." ”

Pei Xiu is a typical second-generation official, although he is talented, but he lives a luxurious life, eating five stone scatter every day, wearing light clothes and wide clothes, and being at ease, if he is really thrown into the army, I am afraid that he will not be able to survive even a day.

Cao Liang asked: "Ji Yan, eating too much of these five stones is not good for people's health, you should try to eat less in the future, it is best to quit." ”

Pei Xiuqi said: "Brother Cao, you are a seller of five stone powder, and you actually persuade people not to eat five stone powder, it's really strange, is it possible that you make too much money?" ”

Cao Liang said: "It is because I do Wushisan that I know the harm of Wushisan, Wushisan is actually a chronic poison, if you eat it for a long time, it is equivalent to chronic suicide, if you are too long, just go and eat it." ”

Pei Xiu's eyes widened and asked, "Since you know that it is a chronic poison, you still want to sell it to others, Cao Ziming, what are your intentions?" ”

Cao Liang smiled slightly and said, "Before I bought five stone scatter, there were five stone scatter on the market in Luoyang?" Luoyang officials and nobles, can you take five stones? ”

Pei Xiu said suspiciously: "That's naturally there." ”

Cao Liang said: "That's not over, I don't sell Wushisan, there are still people who want to sell, I don't do Wushisan, there are still people who want to eat." And since the advent of the Five Stones, have you ever heard of anyone who died violently after eating the Five Stones? ”

Pei Xiu said frankly: "I really haven't heard of that, in the past, people often ate five stones to scatter people's lives, and since the advent of the free five stones, there has really been no problem." ”

Cao Liang smiled slightly: "Whether it is the raw materials or the formula, Xiaoyao Wushisan is extremely accurate, even if it is a chronic poison, it is also the least toxic of all Wushisan, and it is also the safest Wushisan, so since Xiaoyao Wushisan came out, it can be regarded as saving a lot of lives, and there is no fault." It's just a three-point poison, even if Xiaoyao Wushisan is the least toxic and the safest to use, but after taking Wushisan for many years, it will inevitably have sequelae, so for the sake of health, I recommend that Brother Pei quit Wushisan. ”

Pei Xiu's head shook like a rattle, and he said continuously: "If you don't accept it for one day, you have no spirit, you don't accept it for two days, you are tired, if you don't accept it for three days, it seems to scratch your heart with a hundred claws, Brother Cao, you let me quit Wushisan, doesn't that mean let me die, don't you need to talk about it!" ”

Pei Xiu has long been addicted to Sansan, and if he doesn't take it for a day, he will feel uncomfortable, even if Wushisan is really a chronic poison, Pei Xiu will not quit easily. So even if Cao Liang was earnestly admonishing, Pei Xiu turned a deaf ear and took his words as a deaf ear.
