Chapter 10 Flower Tea
As soon as Mrs. Bai finished instructing her two daughters-in-law to cook, as soon as she came out of the kitchen, she saw Bai Mingxuan holding a bamboo tube in her hand, smiling at the corner of her mouth, and pulling Bai Mingwei into it happily.
"Xuanxuan is back! Yo, what's in your hand? Such a baby! Come show grandma. ”
Bai Mingxuan blushed suddenly, she didn't expect that she would cross into a little girl, she really looked like a little girl, and immediately handed over the bamboo tube in her hand.
"Grandma, this is to make tea!" Bai Mingwei immediately rushed out and hurriedly replied.
Bai Lao Niang touched Bai Mingwei's head with a smile, and said while opening the lid: "Make tea and drink it, is it tea..... Yo, it's honeysuckle! ”
"This is a precious thing, did Dr. Wang give it?" Bai Lao Niang was taken aback and looked at Bai Mingxuan.
Although honeysuckle is expensive, it is not a rare thing, and it is not uncommon for the well-informed white lady to know. But even if the average person picks the honeysuckle, they will take it out and sell it for money, and the last time the white lady was a guest at the youngest daughter's house, she was naturally surprised to see the honeysuckle.
"Yes, Dr. Wang saw that I like to drink, so he gave me some." Bai Mingxuan nodded and said, "Doctor Wang is so good!" ”
When Bai Mingwei heard that this was a good thing, her eyes lit up again, and her eyes were staring at the bamboo tube.
"This honeysuckle can't be messed up, I will make tea for everyone to taste later, and put away the rest and keep it for the New Year to entertain guests." The white lady put it under her nose, sniffed it carefully, and closed the lid again.
Bai Mingwei smiled and clapped her hands when she heard this, "Great, I want to taste this honeysuckle tea too!" ”
After the meal, the white lady really made a pot of honeysuckle tea.
There are many people and little tea, and one person only gets half a bowl.
Daddy Bai picked up the bowl, took a sip, and smacked his lips: "This tea is good." ”
Even after living together for most of their lives, Bai Lao Niang still couldn't get used to his stuffy temperament, so she secretly rolled her eyes and took a sip of tea.
"This honeysuckle tea was given by Dr. Wang, and seeing that we Xuanxuan was smart, he gave such a big bag! I'll make a pot for you to taste today! ”
Bai Lao Niang has always praised her grandchildren, looked at Bai Mingxuan, and said happily:
"Hey, today my white lady enjoyed the blessing of her granddaughter!"
Hearing this, Wang's gentle face was so gentle that crow's feet appeared in the corners of his eyes, and he said softly: "A-Niang, if you like it, our juniors should be filial to the elderly." ”
It seems that my aunt is weak and weak, but fortunately, she loves her children, and her emotional intelligence is quite high. Bai Mingxuan said secretly in his heart.
Tao glanced at it, thinking that this sister-in-law could speak, she usually looked soft and weak, and she coaxed the old man into a set when she spoke. Not to be outdone:
"Yes, mother, you have been worried about it for most of your life, and you should enjoy it, you can keep this tea lady and drink it! In the future, when Mingxin has a future, what does my mother want to drink! ”
After speaking, he grabbed Bai Mingxin and shook it: "Mingxin, isn't it?" ”
Bai Mingxin looked at the tea that was almost spilled, looked up and didn't know what was going on, and when he saw Tao's eyes, he immediately nodded: "Uh-huh."
Bai Mingwei smelled the fragrance, drank it all in two sips, looked at her brothers and sisters, and coquettishly said to Bai Minglan: "Big sister, I still want to drink!" ”
"Well, I don't know how to drink slowly." Bai Minglan said helplessly, "Come here, I'll give it to you." ”
Bai Mingcheng on the side glanced at it, and immediately lowered his head and took a sip of tea, with a faint disgust flashing in his eyes.
Bai Minghui on the other side saw it, and when his mind changed, he wanted to secretly snatch Bai Mingxin's tea and pour it into his bowl.
Who knew that when he grabbed it, he was discovered by his own mother and glared at him fiercely. Bai Minghui hurriedly went back, withdrew his hand to pick up his bowl, accidentally took a big sip, and immediately choked and coughed.
"Hmm, this tea is delicious," Bai Er finished drinking it, and smashed it into his mouth, "A-Niang, is there anything else?" Another bowl, half a bowl is not enough to drink! ”
Bai Da nodded, thinking that this tea was indeed delicious, fragrant and sweet, not at all like the wild tea leaves on the mountain, but there were too few, and the two sips were gone.
"Go and go, it's good to have half a bowl for one person, how can there be more!" The white lady said disgustedly.
Bai Mingxuan carefully looked at the pale yellow and clear flower tea in the bowl, smelled the familiar fragrance, took a deep sip of the tea, drank the last sip, and slowly reproduced it in her mouth.
Looking at the empty coarse porcelain bowl, Bai Mingxuan's heart was also empty. I like to drink tea, and I finally drank tea once when I came here, but it was gone in two sips, and I don't know when I will drink this tea next time.
- If only I could drink flower tea every day!
Bai Mingxuan's eyes lit up: If you are rich, of course you can drink tea every day!
Although he is poor now, Bai Mingxuan believes that there will be a way! Even if you return to poverty, you can once again "jump out of the farm" and live the life you want!
Bai Mingxuan, who decided to fight again, had a bright light in his eyes, although he was now in this small dilapidated house, he felt that his heart was suddenly full of hope. She lowered her eyes and thought that according to the current situation, she still had to understand the world clearly before she could start acting.
With a soft "click", Bai Lao Niang put the bowl back on the table, "Okay, what should I do after drinking tea!" ”
The table dispersed.
Bai Mingxuan was about to ask Bai Mingcheng about the outside matter, when she heard Bai Da's thick voice behind her:
"Xuanxuan, you wait!"
Bai Mingxuan turned around and saw Bai Da walking over with a freshly woven bamboo basket, handing it over with a smile, and his eyes full of crow's feet contained a faint look of pampering.
"Last time your basket was crushed, I made you a new one, see if you like it?"
Bai Mingxuan took the basket, in fact, although the basket was crushed, it could still be used if it was repaired, but Bai Da noticed it and made up a new one and sent it.
"yes, I like it." Bai Mingxuan said with a smile, but her eyes gradually became sour.
Unexpectedly, after many years, I felt my father's love again, although he was not his real father, but he was a real love for himself. Bai Mingxuan added:
"Thank you, Daddy."
Bai Da was embarrassed at this time, immediately waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Hehe, thank you, let's play with it!" ”
It's a bit hypocritical to say, but Bai Mingxuan was really moved by a bamboo basket, and silently decided to cherish this hard-won family affection and make up for the regret of the lack of kinship in her previous life.
The chickens are in the cage, the dogs are home, and it's time to go to bed again.
Bai Mingxuan lay on the bed, waiting until Bai Minglan and Bai Mingwei next to her were asleep, still thinking about future plans.
There are sweet potatoes and corn in this world, could it be the Ming Dynasty? Of course, it may not be, after all, I have crossed over, and it is not uncommon for a strange dynasty to appear. If it were other dynasties, would the social system here be the same as that of the Ming Dynasty? I don't know what it's like outside Peach Blossom Village, is the social atmosphere open or conservative?
It seems that everything must be understood slowly, otherwise you will not be able to do anything.
When the morning star in the east is lit up, a new day begins.
