Chapter 160: Tea Flavored Life
After his parents drank the first cup, Li Chengqian poured another cup for them, and then he drank it himself. Flash Dance
It may be that as people grow up, they used to say to Li Chengqian that they didn't like the taste very much, but they gradually became acceptable, and even liked it a little, maybe when they grew up, Li Chengqian would also be completely obsessed with this bitter and sweet taste, and the taste would be long!
"Gao Ming, I said before this, this roasted tea can be drunk by ordinary people, why is this, you talk to your father" This time Li Shimin did not drink it all like the previous ones, and after tasting it slowly, he put down the teacup and asked Li Chengqian.
And Li Chengqian saw that his father had finished drinking, and just wanted to renew it for him, when he was talking, his wife took the teapot and refilled it for their father and son, he wanted to grab it, but his wife refused, and shook his head at him with a smile of appreciation and relief, which made Li Chengqian's heart very warm.
"That's the old man, this fried tea, according to the continuous improvement of the following people in recent years, divided into different levels, like what we drink today is the first spring of this year from the thousand-year-old tea tree to pick the freshest buds fried, can be said to be the best tea, but because of the yield and technology, this year's new tea is about six taels, of course, in addition to these top tea, the second level this year also has a hundred catties, and this time the first level is also fried with hundreds of years of tea buds, so these teas, I did not put in the warehouse, Instead, collect it yourself, and you and my mother will go back in a while, and bring more back," Li Chengqian said to his father with a clay pot filled with tea.

"I didn't expect that there are so many exquisiteness in this roasted tea, it seems that the tea soup we drank before is completely a waste of these good teas" Li Shimin said with a sigh after tasting a sip of tea.
"Dad, this tea soup is not a waste of these good teas, it's just that the production process is different and the way of drinking is different!" Li Chengqian said.
"Having said that, this roasted tea is indeed more intoxicating than the tea soup, and listening to you say this, this top-notch tea is rare, and the poor tea is not so rare" Li Shimin looked at Li Chengqian after speaking.
"That's right, that's the truth, this poor tea, picking doesn't have to be like these top teas, when the sun has not risen, before the buds see the sun, there is dew on it to pick, they can be picked all day long, of course, the best picked in the morning, and the tea picked down is the best with the buds, although the tea has been expanded, but after the tea is fried and brewed, the aroma will not be as strong as the fine tea, and there is a little bitterness, but even so, These teas are also better than tea soup! As for the starting point of roasted tea, which can be drunk by ordinary people, it is fried with tea leaves that have been fully developed, and the bitterness and astringency of such tea will be greater, but compared with what I said before, how to say it, it may not be possible to taste it if you don't taste it carefully" Li Chengqian explained in detail the grade of tea and the picking process. 35xs
"I really didn't expect that this small tea leaves still have such a complicated selection and production process, but as you said, the emergence of this roasted tea will allow ordinary people in the Tang Dynasty to drink tea, instead of tea soup that only rich and noble people can drink as before! But Gao Ming, I am very curious about why you buy tea plantations and plant tea trees in different places! Isn't it good to just gather together? After listening to Li Chengqian's story, Li Shimin was very emotional, but he also asked the questions in his heart.
"This question, Dad, you will understand it after drinking a pot of tea" After speaking, Li Chengqian walked towards the door.
"Xia Ju, you go and bring the can of tea sent from Wuyi" After instructing Xia Ju, Li Chengqian walked back again.
"Gao Ming, isn't there a can? Why do you have to take it, and you have learned to sell guanzi at such a young age, just tell us directly" The eldest grandson Wujian saw that his eldest son was back, and said to Li Chengqian a little puzzled and dissatisfied.
"Ouch, my dear mother! I'll tell you now, and you don't necessarily believe it, so after letting you taste tea from other places, you will know why your son wants to buy tea gardens and plant tea trees in different places" Hearing his wife's words, Li Chengqian hugged his mother's arm and said to her a little coquettishly.
"Go, go, go, how old are you, still like your brother, give me a farther death" Regarding his eldest son's coquettishness, although the eldest grandson Wujian was very beautiful in his heart, he still pushed him aside with his hands and looked at him with disgust.
"Mother, how can you be like this, I am your own son, how can you treat me like this, you hurt my heart so much" Li Chengqian was pushed away by his mother, pretending to be heartbroken, crying there, although it was crying, there was no tears in his eyes, but a smile on his face.
In an instant, the eldest grandson laughed happily, and Li Shimin also laughed.
After laughing for a while, Xia Ju had already brought the new tea, but this time it was not Li Chengqian who did it himself, but his wife brewed it herself.
When the new tea leaves are brewed and poured into the teacup, the smell of tea that is stronger than before comes out, and there is no need to drink it, Li Shimin already knows the answer to the question he asked just now.
"Gao Ming, is it because of the different origins, this fried tea will be different, this time the tea, the fragrance is stronger, and the taste is more mellow, but the aftertaste is not as good as the previous tea" Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian after tasting a cup.
"Or Dad, you are amazing, I know that the taste is more fragrant, as for the taste, to be honest, I think it's about the same, but Dad, you're right, these different origins will make the tea taste different, even if they are made with the same process" Li Chengqian heard his father's words, and slapped his father without a trace, but he didn't lie, he really didn't taste any difference in this tea, maybe his age and mood, and his experience was not enough!
"You, I really don't know what to say about you, it's really a waste of these good teas to stay in you" Hearing the words of his eldest son, Li Shimin pointed at him and said.
"Originally, I don't like to drink tea very much, Dad, you have to like it, I'll let you take it for you in a while, anyway, it's a waste to put it on me, but Dad's tea, although it's good for the human body, but the strong tea is still less drunk, more than my grandfather, you send it, or I send it over" Hearing his father's words, Li Chengqian instantly understood that this was to let himself hand it in, but because he didn't like it too much, Li Chengqian handed it in very happily, but he asked, what should his grandfather do, so that the atmosphere solidified for a while.
