Chapter 778: Tea

Liu Lan didn't know how to taste tea, that is, when he went to the tea house with his friends in later generations, he also took a sip like a cow chewing a peony. Do you think this is drinking, and you still dry it one bite at a time? If you drink it at this time, it is just a vassal elegance, and you can't tell whether the tea is good or bad.

Although he doesn't understand tea, he has a good master who understands tea very well, Liu Yin.

I still remember that when I was familiar with the Fan Zhu article, he read out a 荈 (sound panth) and immediately attracted Liu Yin's attention, which was called a worship, in fact, the reason why he knew this word was because he had seen a "Lady Poem" written by Zuo Si of the Western Jin Dynasty, and there was a sentence "The heart is a tea drama, boasting about the Ding Yu calendar." The most expressive, describing how eager she is to drink tea.

At that time, Liu Lan made such a fuss about Liu Yin and 'sneered' at her, but when she asked, she learned that in this era, the so-called tea is the one in the Fan Jiang chapter, but in the Fan Jiang chapter, the Xun is listed as a medicinal material.

At that time, Liu Yin smiled and asked Liu Lan if he knew Yangxiong, how could Liu Lan not know, the illness in the Water Margin, he knew very much, but when he thought about it, how could Liu Yin know about Yangxiong, he was about to nod and quickly shook his head, Liu Yin introduced it to him, this Yangxiong is not the sick Guan Suo Yang Xiong in the Water Margin, but the famous resignation of the former Han Dynasty, and the author of the article, Sima Xiangru, is called 'Yangma'.

Said that Sima Xiangru Liu Lan is naturally a long-term name, Phoenix seeks Huang, how can he not know, Liu Yin listened to him idle about that regret, I knew that Sima Xiangru would not mention it, and immediately interrupted him to continue to introduce Yangxiong, this person is good at resignation, and he is famous in Shuzhong for Ganquan, but what really makes him famous in the world is a book of "Dialects", which records the dialects of all parts of the world, which mentions that 'the people of southwest Shu are called Tu Yue'.

And tea is not only recorded in this dialect and the general chapter. In the "Book of Songs", "Erya", "Gu Feng" and other articles can also be seen, but their names are different, such as 槚, tea, and so on are all tea.

Therefore, this tea is not the Western Han Dynasty, the tea is for drinking, from the Shennong's, the so-called Shennong tastes a hundred herbs. If you encounter seventy poisons in one day, you can get tea as a solution. Tea was originally used for medicinal purposes, and it was only later that it developed into a drinking base on the basis of medicinal use.

Liu Yin also talked about a martial king who used the sun as a feudal country after the war, and tea was one of the tributes. The initial tea-producing areas covered Fuling County, Shifang County, Nan'an County, Wudu County and Pingyi County. As a side note, the Shu people call it tea (tea tea).

In the "Shu Du Fu" written by Huangmen Lang Yangxiong, there is a sentence "Baihua (flower) throws spring, vine tea and green cui", which shows that as early as the former Han Dynasty, tea was the drink of officials and eunuchs such as Sichuan and Jingxiang. I have to say that Liu Yin, a female doctor, is well-versed in ancient and modern times, and even knows all this. Thinking back to these things, Liu Lan took a sip of tea, which was bitter and astringent, but there is nothing strange about it, tea is called Tu, and you should understand that this thing must be very bitter, after all, this Tu is not the name of bitter vegetables. And the reason why Liu Lan prepared tea for the two of them was naturally to show the ugliness of the Zhen family, but he didn't expect the two of them to actually pick up the tea cup and take a sip, but Yan Zhi, who poured a cup of tea for himself, took a sip. Immediately, he was so bitter that he vomited out both mouthfuls of baba and bah, with a sad face. How did the lord drink this?

At this time, I heard that the young son-in-law Zhen Yu finally spoke, and said to Yan Zhi: "In Jing and Ba, there have long been people picking leaves for cakes. If you want to boil tea, first make it red, pound it and put it in porcelain. Pour it with soup and cover it. Use green onions, ginger, and oranges. If the little general is willing, I will send someone to give you a few catties in a few days. However, although this is good, it can make people sleepless when you drink too much, so it is good to drink some refreshment during the day. ”

Yan Zhi looked at Liu Lan and didn't know whether to accept it, but Liu Lan was dumbfounded, wanting to make a fool of his eldest brother, but he didn't expect that he was an expert, but thinking about the Zhen family's high-ranking mansion, and it is also a high-ranking wealthy family, the good tea in the south has naturally been sipped, isn't he just making a big axe in front of Luban's door?

Giggled, coughed dryly twice, and said to Yan Zhi: "Since someone sent it, you can take it." As he spoke, he put down the teacup and said to the little brother Zhen Yu who spoke, "What are the two of you?" Have no dealings with the Zhen family in Jizhou? I don't know why you came? Looking at the two of them, although they recognized at a glance that the elder among them was the old man in black who had fought with him several times along the way, he didn't break it, as for the young brother who was seated, it must be Zhen Jiang's brother, Zhen Yu is also.

Zhen Yu was not verbose, stood up and said: "In the next Zhen Yu word Boning, I have seen Liu Xianjun." ”

"It turns out that Zhen Yu, the son of the Zhen family, has admired his name for a long time!" After Liu Lan politely greeted him, he waved his hand and said, "Bonin doesn't need to be so polite, please take a seat!" ”

Zhen Yu not only did not sit, but also walked towards Liu Lan, Yan Zhi immediately stepped forward to stop him, but was waved back by Liu Lan, he saw him take out a piece of silk paper from his arms as he walked, walked to Liu Lan and put it down with a few treasures: "I don't sell Guanzi with Liu Xianjun, the above conditions are very rich, you must consider it after reading it!" ”

After all, it is his brother-in-law who is not in a hurry to find the pearl of the Zhen family, but I don't know what is written on it? Liu Lan picked up Cai Hou's paper and took a closer look, my obedient, the Zhen family really has invested enough, not to mention how rich the items listed on it are, there are hundreds of gold pieces totaling 100 catties, and the rest of the cattle and horse silk cloth is even more smack-staggering, but in an instant, Liu Lan put away his shock, looked at Zhen Yu with a blank face, and said: "I have a small Xiangping order, such a valuable thing is never dared to be accepted, and it is better to take it back." As he spoke, he pushed Cai Hou paper back in front of Zhen Yu, although the number of gold, silver and jewelry was listed, but he never mentioned any requirements, but Liu Lan could not know his purpose, but since he didn't say it, Liu Lan was naturally happy to pretend to be stupid and sell off with his future uncle.

"Liu Xianjun must accept it, if it is too little, the Zhen family can add more! As long as Liu Xianjun agrees to take one person away in the inferior class. Zhen Yu listened to his refusal, and added more chips without smiling.

"Take one away?" Liu Lan looked extremely surprised, and asked puzzledly: "I don't know who it is?" I don't have the person Berning wants here, do I? ”

Zhen Yu's face became more gloomy, but at this time, he could only continue to be vain and wronged, and smiled reluctantly, and said: "It's just a maid, it's the girl called 'Xiaoman' that the county monarch met on the way!" ”

It's all at this time, and I'm not telling the truth, right? Liu Lan understood that he was scheming just because he was afraid that he would be insatiable, so he looked down at Cai Hou's paper on the low machine, and a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes, and then he looked up at the two of them, and said quietly: "It turns out that the little girl is the envoy of the Zhen family." ”

"Exactly!" Zhen Yu couldn't wait to say.

Watching him enter the set, Liu Lan showed a hint of unnoticeable sneer. With an expression that turned out to be like this, he said: "If this is the case, I have been used to the little girl for a few days, and it is easy to use, why don't Brother Zhen make a price and sell it to me!" ”

Zhen Yu seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss, secretly scolding himself for being stupid in his heart, it was not good to make up nonsense, but now he can only continue to make it up, and greet him with a smile. said: "Liu Xianjun doesn't know, if someone else is here, he will naturally not refuse, but this person is a girl called by her sister, so please be accommodating!" ”

Hmph, you Zhen Boning, I'm about to make my words clear, and you're still going around the bend with me! With a cold snort in his heart, he pretended to be angry. He patted a few times and said: "It's just a maid, I don't think I'm so ignorant of good words." He snorted heavily and said, "I'm going to buy it today!" "Said here. He snorted angrily at Yan Zhi and said, "Send off!" ”

Liu Lan ordered the eviction of customers, coupled with his excessively aggressive performance, can Zhen Yu be surprised in his heart? He didn't accept such a high price, but wanted to buy it? Don't? If you think about it carefully, it is not surprising that since the housekeeper Zhen Bu said that they went to 'that place', then he must have known the identity of the sister here. And he said that the girl is a girl, isn't this an authority to others? Knowing this, why bother in the first place, he smiled extremely embarrassed and said truthfully: "Don't tell lies in front of real people." In fact, Xiaoman is not someone else, but a sister in the lower house, and her mother wants her to cry and be blind, and she asks Liu Xianjun to be accommodating! ”

"Haha."

Since Zhen Yu told the truth, then everything can be talked about openly and honestly, Liu Lan said with a smile, "You said this earlier, how can it be so troublesome!" It's just that Ling Mei just arrived in the plain and wanted to play for a few days, but I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to return to Zhongshan for the time being, but when he had played enough, I should personally escort her to Zhongshan, what does Zhen Gongzi think? ”

A cold color flashed in Zhen Yu's eyes, if it was someone else, he could still force it, but this Liu Lan's identity was different, he had to suppress the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "How does this make my mother really cry and be blind, and my mother can't get off the ground when I come!" If the housekeeper doesn't go back, I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'......m afraid, I'm afraid," said this, and actually cried.

Liu Lan was very suspicious of his performance, but if he said a lie, then he could really be regarded as an actor-level figure, but think about it carefully, people in this era value loyalty and filial piety, not to mention that they are still a business family, and they are talking about integrity, and they dare not use the fact that their parents are seriously ill as a pretext to deceive people, frowning, it seems that they can only temporarily send Zhen Jiang's girl away, and they are about to agree, but they don't want to go to the door. Bang' was knocked away, and I saw Zhen Jiang running in front of Zhen Yu with a panicked face, with tears in his beautiful eyes, and asked in a choked voice: "Mother, mother, mother, really, really ......" I couldn't say it anymore when I said this, tears flowed out, and I choked up while crying: "It's all children who are not filial, they are all children who are not filial!" ”

stepped forward to help Xiaoman up, Liu Lan gently wiped his tears for him, and comforted: "Jiang'er, it's okay, it's okay!" Believe me! "It's distressing to see the beauty pear blossom with rain.

Zhen Jiang choked up and said: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, my mother is seriously ill now, and what I think about most is me, an unfilial girl, Deran, I want to go back, I want to go back!" ”

~~~~~~~~~

Liu Lan agreed, so he instructed Yan Zhi to take Zhen Yu to the wing room to rest first, while he took the heartbroken Zhen Jiang back to the inner bedroom, stroked her silky hair, comforted him, and said, "Don't worry, your mother is fine, she will definitely be fine." Zhen Jiang's crying became smaller and smaller, she was tired of crying, kissed her hair, and said, "I only arrived in the plain today, you have a day of rest first, and it's not too late to leave tomorrow morning." ”

"Deran, but I want to go back soon." Zhen Jiang looked at Liu Lan with teary eyes, and said reluctantly: "But I can't bear you!" ”

Liu Lan sighed secretly, how could I be willing to let you, but my mother is seriously ill, how can I let you bear the name of unfilial piety because of my own selfishness, and comforted: "It's okay, you will rush back early tomorrow morning, and I will go to Zhenfu to propose marriage in the next few days!" ”

"Yes." Zhen Jiang Xiafei lowered her head with her cheeks, but she reluctantly grabbed her sweetheart's arm tightly in her hand, and fell asleep gently in his arms.

Carried her to the bed, gently covered the brocade quilt, heard Yan Zhi's voice sound outside the door, opened the door and welcomed out, it turned out that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were coming, and said, "The troops are all arranged?" ”

"It's all arranged." Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "Lord, this time I sent troops to fight Yuan, I had some ideas, so I rushed over to discuss it." ”

And Zhang Fei thought that he was eager to try, since he heard that he was going to fight Yuan Shao to take revenge, not to mention how excited he was, when he was in Linzi, he was talking about when he would go to the plains, and now that he has really arrived in the plains, he heard that Guan Yu was looking for the lord to discuss the matter of sending troops, and he thought that he would come over to listen.

However, before talking about this, Guan Yu said another secret thing, Gongsun Beiping relied on force to kill the people when he conquered the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and he didn't care about the people, and he didn't know if it was true or not! At the end of the day, his face was full of solemnity.

"How can such a thing happen?" Liu Lan didn't believe it, but today's Gongsun Chan is no longer the Gongsun Chan he is familiar with, just like the Gongsun Chan in history, as he wins all battles and becomes more and more arrogant, not only does not accept loyalty but will repay, and this is the reason why he was finally defeated by Yuan Shao, and the people's hearts were lost.

While they were discussing, Xu Chu, who was arranged as a thief under the door, hurriedly walked over, bowed his hand, and said, "My lord, there is a middle-aged Confucian outside the mansion who calls himself Jian Yong and Jian Xianhe, asking to see him. ”

Jian Yong is here? When Liu Lan heard Jian Yong's name, a familiar figure rose in his heart, Liu Lan had never seen him since Sanjun Karasuma, I didn't expect him to appear again at this time, you must know that what Liu Lan lacks most now is that Jian Yong is also an internal affairs talent, and he was overjoyed and said, "Hurry up, please." ”

With joy in his heart, he walked towards the living room, but Zhang Fei on the side had already laughed loudly: "Jian Xianhe is actually here, could it be that he came to find me to fight for wine!" ”

The old man who was older with Sima naturally understood that Zhang Fei was ridiculing Jian Yong, who didn't know that this immortal who was not drunk in a thousand cups of wine only had the amount of one cup. (To be continued......)
