After all, the books of the Chinese Department of Xuan's two years are not read in vain, not only can memorize a few generations of idle books are also interested, he likes fighting insects, just because he read Jia Yidao's "Promoting Weaving Sutra", and after reading Yuan Hongdao's "Bottle History" of the Ming Dynasty, he was fascinated by the vase flower art that arose in the Tang Dynasty and prevailed in the Ming and Qing dynasties^H for a while, and participated in the school's "Vase Flower Club", and the society was all girls. (Eyes and Books)

Two copper bottles of the Wei and Jin dynasties, respectively, are inserted with early yellow wood flowers and chrysanthemums, the bottle with chrysanthemums is also lined with a branch of begonia, the branches and leaves are pruned, the flowers and leaves reflect each other, fresh and fragrant, full of interest.

Zhou Xuan smiled and said: "The vase of flowers is appreciated, it is better to appreciate the tea, the younger brother came to learn the tea art tonight, and brought two vases of flowers to offer to Sister Daoyun, but it is a pity that I couldn't find a better porcelain bottle in a hurry, so I replaced it with a bronze bottle, and the chrysanthemum is not a Shih Tzu chrysanthemum, otherwise it is better." ”

Lin Hanyun saw that her sister was silent, and asked, "Sister, do you like these two old bottles that Zhou Xuan gave you?" ”

Fairy Jingyi replied, "Well, I like it very much. ”

Lin Hanyun was stunned, she didn't expect Zhou Xuan to say it, my sister really likes these two bottles of flowers, thought about it, and said angrily: "Zhou Xuan, you will please my sister, you will be so fierce to me, and you don't take me to see the insect war, you bully people." ”

When Fairy Jingyi heard her sister say that Zhou Xuan was flattering her, her cheeks under the veil couldn't help but be hot, and she said angrily: "Hanyun, don't talk nonsense." But he thought in his heart: "Did Zhou Xuan mean to please me?" The bottle matches the flower pole, and it takes a lot of thought. ”

Lin Hanyun said: "That sister promised me to go to the 'Super Autumn Battle Hall' to watch the insect battle in three days. Zhou Xuan said that he would come to pick me up. ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Didn't you say that I was bullying, I won't pick it up." ”

Fairy Jingyi looked at the two bickering, shook her head, and said, "The tearoom should not be noisy and quarrelsome - Hanyun, you have to go to see the fighting insects, and promise my sister two things." One is not to run around, last time I ran to the river and something big happened-"

Lin Hanyun interjected and said: "Sister, if I hadn't dragged Zhou Xuan to the riverside, I wouldn't have met the three idiots, then Lord Li would not have been saved, it's not all my credit, Lord Li is also very grateful to me." ”

Fairy Jingyi couldn't do anything about this thick-skinned sister, and said, "Anyway, if you go out with Zhou Gongzi, you have to listen to him." When he sends you back, if he says that you are stubborn and disobedient outside, then you don't want to go out in the future, and I am afraid of my father's punishment. (Eyes read the book)"

Lin Hanyun opened his mouth and stopped talking.

Zhou Xuan took out the splendid flowers and birds from his arms and gave it to him, and Fairy Jingyi unfolded it to look at it carefully, and praised it softly: "I didn't expect Mrs. Zhou Gongzi to not only have superb medical skills, but also have the ability to embroider with this hand, which is really ingenious." ”

Lin Hanyun said: "Sister, Zhou Xuan has two wives, it shouldn't be the doctor's wife embroidering the ground." It's another, I heard that it was the palace maid who returned to her hometown this time, and somehow she was married by Zhou Xuan again! ”

Fairy Jingyi listened to her sister's tone, as if Zhou Xuan was robbing the people's daughter, and said, "Okay, thank you Zhou Gongzi for the gift." The female Taoist is very grateful, and she never dares to think that this is an apprenticeship ceremony, and the female Taoist also asks Zhou Gongzi for advice on music and vase flowers. ”

Just like Lin Hanyun refused to call her brother, Fairy Jingyi didn't want to call her brother Xuan.

Zhou Xuan was respectfully ready to listen to the lecture.

Fairy Jingyi asked: "Does Gongzi Zhou know the origin of the allusion to the word 'nine difficulties' in the Nine Tribulations Mountain House?" ”

Zhou Xuan thought to himself: "I know that there is a Nine Tribulations Master in "The Legend of Deer and Ding", but you are a Taoist aunt, do you still want to enter the Buddha from the Tao? He said, "I'm ashamed, I don't know." Please let my sister know. ”

Fairy Jingyi nodded approvingly, very satisfied with Zhou Xuan's attitude, people's feelings are so weird, and the first impression is good. The back is pleasing to the eye everywhere, and even not being able to answer the question is also a sign of good morality.

Taoism has "nine difficulties and ten demons" to say, Lu Yu's "Book of Tea" also said "nine difficulties", the female Tao of the "nine difficulties of the mountain house" has these two meanings, Taoism does not need to mention, only say that the "Book of Tea" nine difficulties, one making, two farewells, three instruments, four fires, five water, six burning, seven ends, eight boils, nine drinks, "drink" ranked in nine, it can be seen that it is the most difficult, there are many people in the world who are good at cooking tea, but there are few guests who know the taste of tea, it is the last time the female Tao listened to the rhyme of Zhou Gongzi's two friends with tea, very touched, the female Tao wants to ask is - Zhou Gongzi is willing to learn the first eight difficulties, Or do you specialize in the ninth hardest? ”

Fairy Jingyi crossed her hands in front of her chest, her back was straight, her sitting posture was extremely beautiful, and her voice was soft and gentle, she didn't need to listen to what she was at all, just this voice was fascinating.

Zhou Xuan said: "I am willing to learn the ninth difficulty." ”

Fairy Jingyi said: "This ninth difficulty is not just to sit and drink, if you want to taste like a god like your friend surnamed Zhang, you must identify the water of the world's famous springs, the quality of the tea set, the types of famous tea in various places, and whether the harvesting is timely?" Is it appropriate to boil tea? and so on, you must know it well - Zhou Gongzi, are you still willing to learn? ”

Zhou Xuanxin said: "Anyway, it's okay,

You grow your ears when you speak. Without hesitation, he said, "I am willing to learn." ”

—

Fairy Jingyi was secretly happy, called the maids Mingfeng and Jianyue, and asked them to fetch water, and after a while, the two of them came with three celadon tea cups, and these six identical tea cups were lined up on the ebony coffee table in front of Zhou Xuan.

"Zhou Gongzi, these six kinds of water are Lugu Valley Curtain Spring Water, Lushan Zhaoyin Spring Water, Wuxi Huishan Stone Spring, Qizhou Lanxi Spring, Xinzhou Luyu Spring, Guangling Shugang Fengquan - Zhou Gongzi is an overseas visitor, naturally he has not tasted these springs before, please taste them one by one, if you can distinguish the nuances, it will be considered a success."

The elegant and lovely maid Ming Feng smiled and took a black ribbon and said, "Master Zhou, please blindfold." ”

Zhou Xuan knew that blindfolding was conducive to improving the ability of the tongue to discriminate, and it was best to plug the ears as well, so he immediately took the black ribbon, blindfolded, and tied a knot in the back of his head.

Mingfeng's voice: "Please Zhou Gongzi taste these six kinds of spring water in turn." As he spoke, a small soft hand took his hand and handed him a celadon bowl.

Zhou Xuan held the teacup and tapped the water in the cup with the tip of his tongue, the pure spring water was not tea, so he calmed down, tasted it for a while, and then put it down, spread out his palm, and said that he would come to the second cup.

After tasting the six springs one by one, Zhou Xuan tasted it again in his heart, and said: "I can already distinguish that each spring is different. ”

"Really?" There was a hint of surprise in Fairy Jingyi's beautiful voice: "Mingfeng, break the order, and then bring the spring water to Zhou Gongzi to taste." ”

Zhou Xuan tasted the first lamp and handed it over, and said hesitantly: "It seems to be the fourth lamp before." ”

Fairy Jingyi didn't say anything, and motioned to bring this lamp to Zhou Xuan again.

Zhou Xuan tasted it again and said with a smile: "Mingfeng also came to tease me, this is the one just now, I can still recognize this." ”

Mingfeng "Ge" chuckled, and took another one to Zhou Xuan.

Another tasting, Zhou Xuan reported the ranking of the spring water in the order of the first tasting.

Fairy Jingyi's voice said, "Young Master Zhou, you can untie the ribbon." ”

Zhou Xuan let go of the blindfolded ribbon, rubbed his eyes and asked, "Sister Daoyun, am I so wrong?" ”

Lin Hanyun had been forbidden by her sister to speak, and then she spoke: "You are almost wrong, upside down." ”

Zhou Xuanhao is not ashamed.

Fairy Jingyi hurriedly said: "Don't listen to Hanyun's nonsense, Zhou Gongzi tasted it six times, right three times, this is already very rare, the female Taoist is a beginner in the tea ceremony, but it is really all wrong." ”

Zhou Xuan became proud again, and said in his heart: "It seems that my taste buds are developed enough, is it because I have been kissing a lot these days?" Ha ha. ”

Fairy Jingyi said: "This pure spring water is easy to taste, and it is difficult to taste it after boiling tea, because the fragrance of tea changes the taste of water, Zhou Gongzi wants to come step by step, and the female Taoist thinks that Zhou Gongzi can finally reach the tasting realm of your friend surnamed Zhang." ”

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "It's all up to Sister Daoyun's cultivation." ”

Fairy Jingyi couldn't help but smile and said: "Today is here, the tea art is in a hurry, it takes a long time to edify, ears and eyes, increase knowledge, and taste famous tea." ”

Lin Hanyun had already sat impatiently, and quickly got up and said, "Then let's go, Zhou Xuan, I'll send you out of the house." ”

Zhou Xuan sat still: "It's still early, it's not yet the second watch, I want to listen to Sister Daoyun's again, I heard my sister blowing when I entered the mountain house just now, it's really good." ”

Zhou Xuan has a special hobby for beautiful women's, seeing the beauty holding a shakuhachi flute with both hands, exhaling like an orchid, the sound of the flute is like a turn, and it is inevitable that he will be short of breath after blowing a song, so the jade cheeks are flushed, and the crisp chest is undulating, which is really beautiful.

Fairy Jingyi didn't refuse, took a pipe of purple bamboo flute and played a song, it was the "Red Bean Song".

Zhou Xuan got his wish and saw the rise and fall of Jingyi's crisp chest under the robe of Fairy Jingyi, but because of the veil, he only saw the pointed chin, which was a bit similar to Lin Hanyun, more beautiful and delicate than Lin Hanyun.

Zhou Xuan shamelessly created another song "Ziling State Song", he played the song with the harmonica, he sang the lyrics again, and Jingyi Fairy wrote them down one by one.

Unconsciously that the second watch had passed, Zhou announced his resignation and said, "Thank you, Sister Daoyun, this is really a pleasant night." ”

The happiness in Fairy Jingyi's heart was beating, but she was always suppressed by something, and said lightly: "Gongzi Zhou will come when he is free, and the female Tao will be waiting at any time." ”

When sending Zhou Xuan out, Lin Hanyun said: "It's really a dreary night, it's not interesting at all. ”

Zhou Xuan felt a slight pain in his stomach and said, "It's not good, I drank too much cold water tonight, I'm afraid I'm going to have a stomach, I have to go back quickly." Lin Hanyun was stunned for a moment, and couldn't straighten up with a smile.
