Chapter 176: Li Xiu and Yi Niang's First Meeting
Seeing that Fan Er actually got back a hundred yuan, Yi Niang was very vigilant at the same time, worried that she would be deceived and taken advantage of. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info fans didn't want to hide it from Yi Niang anymore at this time, so they told me about selling tea for money.
"Fan'er, you said that you just fried the leaves of the tea tree, and then someone is willing to spend a few hundred yuan to buy it?" After listening to Fan'er's story, Yi Niang asked even more incredulously, how can there be such a simple way to make money in the world?
"No, Sister Yi Niang, you don't know, maybe I didn't make it clear, stir-frying tea seems simple, but it is also difficult to fry it well, and ...... And ......" fans saw that Yi Niang didn't believe it, and they were in a hurry to explain it at the moment, but the more anxious they were, the more they couldn't explain it.
"Okay, don't talk about it, although I don't know what the purpose of the person who taught you to fry tea and buy your tea was, I'm sure he definitely didn't have a good heart, take the money and take me to see the other party!" Yi Niang interrupted Fan'er's words again at this time, it's not that she doesn't believe Fan'er, it's just that Fan'er's words are too unbelievable.
"Sister Yi Niang, things are really not what you think, the one who bought ......"
"Okay, no matter what the other party has, but you just fry a few tea tree leaves to sell so much money, it's too easy, even if the other party really bought it to drink, but you are too cheap, we can't take advantage of such a big advantage, otherwise we won't feel at ease with the money!" Yi Niang taught her again that she was a person who had no merit and would never take advantage of others.
Seeing that Yi Niang was really angry, Fan Er didn't dare to say anything, so she silently picked up the money bag and followed Yi Niang out of the yard, and then took her to the place where Li Xiu was fishing.
Li Xiu put the fishing rod on the river at this time, and the charcoal stove next to it was boiling water, since the fan sent the tea, he no longer had the intention of fishing, so he personally ran home to get the charcoal stove and kettle and other supplies, planning to make a pot of tea and fish while tasting.
Bursts of steam have emerged from the mouth of the iron kettle, and there is also a sound of "goo-doo~goo-doo~", the water inside is about to be boiled, and the water for making tea must be boiled in an iron kettle, some people like to use what gold kettle, silver kettle, or even glass kettle or the like, it is simply a big mistake.
This is mainly because when the iron kettle boils water, it will release a trace amount of divalent iron, which will increase the slightly sweet taste of the tea, making the tea more fragrant and mellow, for example, the ancients were very concerned about water when making tea, and even made a classification of water across the country, and later scientists found that the so-called good water is all water containing higher divalent iron, so if you want to drink tea made with good water, the easiest way is to boil water with an iron kettle.
Seeing that the water in the iron kettle was about to boil, Li Xiu poured out a few tea leaves in a tea bowl, and was just about to lift the water from the fire, but suddenly heard a sound of footsteps coming from behind him again, and it sounded like there was more than one person, which also made him stunned, and then stood up and turned to look, only to see a sixteen or seventeen-year-old beautiful girl walking over quickly, with a pair of slightly cold single phoenix eyes under a pair of long eyebrows, which seemed to be not easy to get close to.
When Yi Niang saw a young man standing by the river with a jade tree in the wind, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, only to see that the other party was handsome and had an extraordinary temperament, especially after seeing her, the corners of her mouth suddenly brought a playful smile, which made people's hearts beat hard, would such a man really deceive fans of such a little girl?
Just when Li Xiu and Yi Niang met, Fan Er finally caught up from behind, and saw Li Xiu smile embarrassedly, and then whispered to Yi Niang: "Just ...... It's the tea that this son buys. ”
Hearing Fan'er's words, Yi Niang finally woke up from her sluggishness, looked at Li Xiu at the moment, and suddenly said with a flash of inspiration in her mind: "You are Li Xiu!" ”
"You're the lady of clothes, I hope you don't be surprised by what happened last time!" Li Xiu didn't expect to meet Yi Niang in this situation, so he had to show a gentle smile and said, in fact, the relationship between them was quite awkward, which was the main reason why he had always avoided meeting each other.
If Yi Niang doesn't have a little resentment towards Li Xiu in her heart, it must be a lie, after all, for a woman, being dressed as a bride and sent to the other party's door, but the other party is unwilling to accept herself, which is a huge blow to a woman's self-esteem. Of course, from a rational point of view, she can also understand Li Xiu, so Yi Niang's impression of Li Xiu has always been in a very contradictory state.
"The last time it happened, the Pei family was at fault first, and it was natural for Gongzi Li to refuse, not to mention that Gongzi gave our master and servant a place to live afterwards, which is enough!" Yi Niang struggled between sensibility and rationality, but in the end rationality prevailed, after all, she and Li Xiu were both victims in this matter.
"Thank you for understanding!" Li Xiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, he didn't expect that Pei Ju, the old bastard, could teach such a reasonable daughter, which can be regarded as a miracle in the world.
Yi Niang settled down at this time, and finally remembered the purpose of her coming here, and immediately took the money bag from Fan'er's hand and handed it to Li Xiu: "Thank you for your kindness, but Yi Niang and Fan Er can support themselves and don't need other people's charity!" ”
"Huh?" Li Xiu looked at the money bag handed over by the other party and was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, and couldn't help but smile helplessly, "Yiniang, you misunderstood, this is not a charity, but the income of the powder's labor, she fried the tea I liked, and I gave her the corresponding remuneration, this is a very fair transaction, where can I say the word charity?" ”
"Although Yi Niang is a woman, but the son doesn't have to lie to me with such words, it's just that the leaves of the tea tree are picked and fried, which can't be called tea at all, if such a thing can be bought at such a high price, isn't it a big joke?" Yi Niang was very stubborn, at this time, her sensibility began to prevail, and the resentment of Li Xiu in her heart also followed.
Li Xiu can understand Yi Niang's mood, and also knows that sometimes it is really difficult to convince people with words alone, and the kettle behind him just made the sound of "Gu Gu~", so Li Xiu suddenly smiled and said: "Yi Niang, if you don't believe in the tea made by the powder, why don't you sit down and taste a cup?" ”
Li Xiu said and suddenly sat cross-legged on the grass, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation, and then did not wait for the Yi Niang to respond, just picked up the tea bowl and put it on the grass, and then lifted the kettle and poured water into the bowl.
In the face of Li Xiu's invitation, Yi Niang was also a little overwhelmed at first, wanting to refuse but not knowing how to speak, and finally saw that Li Xiu even poured the tea, which made her finally grit her teeth and sit down, and then picked up the tea bowl and blew it lightly a few times, and then slowly tasted it.
It's a little bitter, but after the bitterness, it has a bit of sweetness and fragrance, which makes Yi Niang also very surprised, when she was in Pei Mansion before, she had studied tea art, but she didn't like the taste of tea very much, but she didn't expect the taste of tea fried by powder to be so unique, although it was the first time to drink, but she suddenly felt that she had liked this taste.
"Sister Yi Niang, how does the tea I fried taste?" Seeing the surprised expression on Yi Niang's face, Fan Er also asked curiously, although she knew how to stir tea, she had never tasted the taste of her own fried tea, not that she didn't want to drink it, but Li Xiu didn't tell her that this kind of tea only needs to be brewed with boiling water to drink.
"First bitter and then sweet, there is no flavor!" Yi Niang's tone was also a little admiring, and after speaking, she looked at Li Xiu again, and then asked with some puzzlement, "I remember that Fan Er said that this kind of fried tea was told to her by Li Gongzi, since Li Gongzi has long known about this kind of fried tea, why don't you fry it yourself, but let the powder fry it?" ”
"Roasted tea is indeed what I told Fan'er, but I only know that there is this kind of thing, but I don't know how to fry it, and I'm very lazy, I don't like to do it myself, Fan'er has the heart to study this method of roasting tea by himself, and has paid a lot of hard work for this, you look at her hands, there must be blisters that have not disappeared." Li Xiu waved his hands and said, most of what he said was the truth, and naturally he looked like a matter of course.
Yi Niang heard this and hurriedly grabbed Fan'er's hand, and sure enough, she found that there were a lot of blisters on her little hands that had not disappeared, which made her feel a little blame, during this time she only cared about embroidery, but ignored Yi Niang, and she didn't even know that her hands were burned.
"Sister Yiniang, it's okay, it's just a few small blisters, and they will disappear in a few days!" When Fan Er saw Yi Niang's guilty expression, she comforted her at the moment and said that she could help her family earn money, which also made her feel extremely proud.
"Well, fans, you've worked hard!" Yi Niang suddenly felt a sour nose at this time, and tears almost poured out, but in the end, she still held back and didn't let the tears fall, because she didn't want to shed tears in front of others, especially the person next to her was Li Xiu.
After a long while, Yi Niang turned around and saluted Li Xiuyingying: "Although the fried tea was successfully developed by the fans, but thanks to Li Gongzi's guidance, Yi Niang has thanked Gongzi for the fans here!" ”
"You're welcome, but you'd better prepare more roasted tea during this time, the princess and Princess Qin liked it after tasting it yesterday, and I guess they will send someone to buy some soon!" Li Xiu smiled again at this time and said, Princess Pingyang said in person yesterday that she wanted to buy tea, and it is estimated that someone will be sent soon.
Hearing Li Xiu's words, Yi Niang suddenly felt powerless, she actually refused Li Xiu's help in her heart, but now the help Li Xiu gave them made her unable to refuse at all, because these are very indirect help, and there is no way to refuse, which also makes Yi Niang sigh secretly, and can only silently accept this reality.
