Chapter 24: Revealed
Lu Yunzhi sat in the room of an inn, Yingzi studied ink for him, and a pot of green tea leaves came out with a faint fragrance, twisted with the smell of the Buddha incense altar on the table, and wafted into the indescribable refreshment between the heart and lungs. Yingzi asked, "What kind of tea does this smell so good?" Lu Yunzhi poured a little of the tea leaves in the tea can and put them on the table for Yingzi to see, only to see that the tea leaves were in the shape of a snail, with white and white on it, the tea body was green like green bamboo and jade, and the leaf buds were also extremely tender. Yingzi lifted the lid of the pot, and suddenly felt the fragrance in his nose, and the tea leaves stretched in the water. Yingzi poured out two cups, handed one cup to Lu Yun, and then picked up one cup and sighed slowly: "Good fragrant tea, cold and sweet, fresh and delicious." Xianggong, what kind of tea is this? ”
Lu Yunzhi shook his head and said: "I don't know what this tea is called, it was bought from a Jiangsu businessman when the second brother went out to inquire about the news this morning, it is said to be called scaring people." The second brother naturally wondered about the origin of the name, and the merchant explained, and legend has it that a nun saw this tea tree plucking a few leaves and soaking them in water, and suddenly felt its fragrance and shouted; 'The incense is terrifying'. So this tea has a nickname called scaring people, but businessmen love to call it Dongting tea, just to show that its origin is Dongting Mountain in Taihu Lake, although concise but there is no frightening fragrance of the truth, but also lack of poetry, really live up to such a delicious tea. ”
Yingzi smiled slightly and said, "Xianggong, why don't you give this tea a name?" Lu Yunzhi paused for a moment and then smiled: "You see that this tea is like a snail, so let's call it a snail." Saying that, Lu Yunzhi picked up the pen and improvised a poem on the spread of rice paper, and read it while writing: "The green is like a green snail full of fragrance, and the color is like a flowing glow in the world." The churning clouds turn boiling and self-exhibiting, willing to be a mandarin duck and not envious of immortals. After reading it, he raised his eyes to look at Yingzi, who was already shy, Lu Yunzhi stood up and hugged her, but suddenly someone outside the door shouted hello.
Lu Yunzhi opened the door and saw a man who looked like a businessman standing outside the door, the man was of medium stature, square face and wide forehead, and he was the owner of a solid family with his clothes, but there was a shrewdness in his eyes, which made people know that he was a businessman at a glance. There was also a man standing next to the man with a big waist and a round belly, his clothes were extremely ordinary, and his facial features were also good-looking, but because he was very obese, he looked fat and big-eared, and his eyes revealed a simple atmosphere, but if he looked closely, he found that there was an imperceptible cunning and self-confidence in this honesty, this person was not Lu Yunzhi's second brother Fang Qingze, who was it.
Lu Yunyi arched his hand and said, "Second brother, dare to ask who this benevolent brother is?" Fang Qingze replied with a smile: "The businessman who was eating and drinking together just now, I didn't want to come to the room to talk about it, and I happened to hear you composing a poem when I passed by your door, so I stopped." The man also bent down and bowed and said: "Wang in Suzhou Mansion, I just heard the poem you chanted, and I heard what Brother Fang said, I bought Dongting tea today, and after hearing this poem, I learned that you showed your love to Mrs. Zun with tea, and I shouldn't have bothered, but it was really wonderful to compare Dongting tea to a snail, so I couldn't help but shout good, it was really offended, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”
Fang Qingze laughed out loud and said, "Brother Wang doesn't have to be polite, this is my third brother and my own family." By the way, the third brother, tomorrow Brother Wang's house will hold a banquet, one to celebrate the first birthday of the little master of the Wang family, and the other is that Brother Wang will return to his hometown in the near future, and he may not come back, so tomorrow he will have a banquet to say goodbye to business friends, today we talked with each other and invited me to the banquet, tomorrow you and Yingzi will also go with me. Lu Yunzhi wanted to refuse, but the businessman surnamed Wang invited him: "Mr. is only eight buckets, you must come tomorrow to appreciate your face." At this point, Lu Yunzhi had no choice but to agree again and again and have a polite conversation with the businessman surnamed Wang.
Later, the businessman surnamed Wang and Fang Qingze went back to the house to talk about business, and Lu Yunzhi's unintentional words compared Dongting tea to Biluo but let the businessman never forget, and after returning to his hometown, he called this tea Biluo at home every day, and his son Wang Ao grew up and added a spring word after this Biluo, which became famous in the local area for a while, and since then there has been Biluo Chun. Wang Ao has two apprentices, one is called Tang Bohu and the other is Wen Zhengming. This is a later story, so I won't mention it more, and after Biluochun became famous, it was handpicked by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty and set it as the imperial offering, so everyone in the world knows Biluochun, and this is also a later story.
That night, Lu Yunzhi hugged his wife Yingzi and went to Wushan together, Lu Yunzhi felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction in his body, like a beast that had been hungry for a long time. After Lu Yunzhi fell asleep, he woke up in a burst of laughter, but there was no one in the surrounding investigation, only the lovely person next to the pillow, the two of them had been running around for many days and had not had a round house today, and finally there was a husband and wife, Lu Yunzhi no longer thought about it, and continued to sink into the dream with Yingzi in his arms.
At noon on the second day, the three of them changed their clothes and rushed to the banquet set up by the merchant surnamed Wang, got off the carriage and walked to the door only to find that it was already full of friends, and many businessmen came to the banquet.
Lu Yunzhi smiled and said: "It's a good couplet, it's just that the pronunciation of this square character is repeated, but it's still a good pair." Fang Qingze snorted and said, "Third brother, stinky and sour, what's the meaning of becoming an astronomical Zou Zou, tell me what's good about this couplet?" Lu Yunzhi replied: "Don't you see that Cen and Lake are separated into five words, mountains and rivers, ancient and modern moons?" It's the same with Xialian, second brother, Yingzi, are you saying it's very ingenious. ”
Fang Qingze smiled and said: "Clever fart, hurry up and go in, we will say goodbye to him after eating, go back to the inn to pack some bags and hurry up, let's go." As he spoke, he took the lead into the courtyard, followed by Lu Yunzhi and Yingzi.
Lu Yunzhi just took a step and stepped into the courtyard gate, but he let out an "ah", then pulled up Fang Qingze and Yingzi and walked out without saying goodbye. When they returned to the inn, Fang Qingze was still muttering: "Third brother, what kind of style are you smoking, it's rude to leave without saying a word like this, don't you pay the most attention to this?" What exactly do you want to do, I don't ask you on the way, but now you can say it. ”
Lu Yunzhi didn't have time to grind, his hand dipped in the water in the cup and wrote on the table: Ten words and ten words, and then looked at Fang Qingze, Fang Qingze shook his head puzzled: "What do you mean?" Lu Yunzhi looked a little anxious, but he didn't speak, as if it was very troublesome to explain, his fingers pointed to one first, then to ten, and then to mention, and wrote the word "Yu" on the table, and then wrote "humble". After Lu Yunzhi finished writing, he said leisurely: "It turns out that this organization is just a split of the name. ”
Yingzi and Fang Qingze stood up in shock and shouted, "You said it was Yu Qian." The door was suddenly pushed open and a person walked in, and the man smiled and said, "It's me." ”
