Liu Sanwu, Liu Yiyi's cousin-in-law, is the only one in the old Liu family who has some status. He is a landlord with 100 acres of fertile land, and he is also well-known in Sanyuan County. But Liu Yiyi has never seen him, because Liu Laoshi is not very good at dealing with this Liu Sanwu.

The grievances of Liu Yiyi are not clear, anyway, since the death of Liu Yiyi's short-lived grandfather, the old Liu family has stopped all contact with Liu Sanwu's family. Liu Sanwu was also happy that he didn't have poor relatives to come to the door, and he never came to Lao Liu's house again. The relationship between the two families was just shelved there.

But today, the old Liu family is in trouble, and the only relative who is most likely to help is this Liu Sanwu.

So, Yanagi Yichi came to the door.

Yanagi Ichijo was wearing a very shabby shirt today, an earthy yellow gown, a hem that had just covered his knees, and two palm-sized patches on his buttocks. Typical of a poor family's dress.

I thought that such clothes would be closed in front of Liu Sanwu's house, but the development of things was very unexpected by Liu Yiyi. The housekeeper in the Liufu was very enthusiastic, and almost flatteringly welcomed the willow to the main hall of the Liufu. Liu Sango sat there smiling.

is different from the fat old man in Liu Yiyi's imagination, Liu Sanwu is actually a thin old man with strong spirits. Dark eyebrows, a pleated face, and a half-white goatee. I have to say that this Liu Sanwu looks very distinctive.

Liu Yiyi took two steps forward, bent over to Liu Sanwu and saluted: "I've seen my uncle, I've said hello to you!" ”

Liu Sanwu nodded and said, "You are Liu Laoshi's eldest son?" It's only been a few years since you've grown so big? Just sit down, we are all from the same ancestor, and you don't have to be too restrained here. ”

"Thank you, uncle, such a hairpin will be crossed." Liu Yiyi gave another salute and sat down at the head of Liu Sango.

Liu Sanwu nodded, motioned to his subordinates to serve tea, and said to Liu Yiyi: "This is Qingcheng tea just shipped from Bashu, how about you taste it?" ”

Liu Yiyi thanked him, reached out and picked up the celadon tea bowl on the table, put it to his nose and sniffed it, and a faint fragrance wafted into his heart. Liu Yiyi made an evaluation of this tea in his heart, the aroma is average, and the color is only between the middle and the bottom. Although it is Qingcheng tea, it is far from Qingcheng snow buds.

Of course, these truths cannot be told as a guest. And seeing that Liu Sanwu is also a tea lover, he can't use these words to hit him.

With a sip of his lips, Liu Yiyi opened his mouth and praised: "Fresh, natural, poverty contains a touch of sweetness, good tea!" ”

Liu Sanwu's eyes lit up, and a flower appeared on his face, and he said: "From your words, I can hear that you are also a tea lover, no better than those little cubs at home, who only know how to drink cows and destroy heavenly things." I still have some of this tea, so you can bring some with you when you go back. ”

When Liu Yiyi heard this, he stood up and said respectfully: "Uncle Xie is very kind, but I didn't come here this time for these teas, but for something important." My dad..."

Liu Sanwu stretched out his hand to block Liu Yiyi's words, and said, "I already know about your father and mother, and I also know the purpose of your visit. Don't worry, although your father and I are a little discordant, after all, our two families are still blood relatives, and I will not stand idly by and watch the suffering of our clansmen. Last night, I sent someone to the government office to get through the relationship, and they will not suffer any grievances in the cell for the time being. As for the lawsuit, someone has already gone up and down, and I think they will come out soon. You don't have to worry too much. ”

Unexpectedly, Liu Yichi was very surprised. He didn't expect that a cousin who had not been in contact for more than ten years would be so enthusiastic to help him. This is unthinkable until modern times. Liu Yiyi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, ah! The heart of the ancients was good!

"Thank you uncle for your help, such a great kindness, one will be remembered in my heart, and I will definitely repay it in the future!" As soon as he bowed to the ground, Liu Yichi's expression seemed very sincere.

"You don't have to be like this, I'm just helping you because you and I are both people surnamed Liu, belonging to the same clan, and I can't bear to see you suffer from prison, not to repay you." Liu Sanwu motioned for Liu Yiyi to sit down and said, "If you don't want to go, just drink a few cups of tea with my old man here." Now there are not many young people like you who understand tea and love tea. ”

Liu Sanwu got up and walked to Liu Yiyi's side, lifted the teapot and poured another cup in another empty cup, handed it to Liu Yiyi and said, "You can taste it again now, does this tea taste different from just now?" ”

Liu Yiyi hurriedly took it with both hands, poured it into his stomach on his back, closed his eyes and tasted it before saying: "The entrance is bitter, the stomach is fragrant, the taste is rich, and the teeth are lingering. ”

Liu Sanwu stroked his beard and laughed, and said, "I am really not mistaken, you are really good at tea ceremony." Then he explained to himself: "The first cup of tea has not yet fully unfolded, so the tea poured out only has the aroma of tea, but no taste of tea." You can drink a little sweetness, that's because the water used to make tea is a sweet spring. ”

"The second cup is the essence of Qingcheng tea, and you can tell its taste and characteristics in one bite, which shows that you have studied this Tao quite deeply. It's a pity that such a good tea friend can only accompany me to drink so once. ”

Liu Sanwu began to sigh loudly at the end, looking at Liu Yiyi's eyes as if he was looking at a dead person.

Liu Yiyi's face remained unchanged, he sat there quietly, picked up the teapot and poured another empty cup, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and said, "Yes, this may be the first and last time we have tea together." It's a pity, uncle. ”

"Liu Yichi!" A cold light flashed in Liu Sanwu's eyes, and he said gloomily: "After drinking two cups of my broken intestines, you still have such leisure and leisure, which is really admirable." I just don't know if you will still have this leisurely time when the drug kicks in? ”

Liu Yiyi looked at Liu Sanwu with a smile, his eyes were full of pity, and he said slowly: "My father once told me that Liu Sanwu is the most snobbish and stingy. He would beat his own son for a copper plate, and he would kill his relatives for half a pancake. Imagine how such a person would warmly entertain a poor relative who had been cut off, and would make him a pot of Qingcheng tea that was always worth one tael of silver? ”

"But you still drank it? Isn't it? Liu Sango was not intimidated by Liu Yiyi's words. He still said pleasantly: "Anyone will do it afterwards, but this won't save you." You will die here today. ”

"Really?" Liu Yiyi picked up the teacup again, poured the tea in the cup again, and said, "What if I can't die?" ”
