The shopkeeper raised the corners of his playful mouth and said proudly: "Madam, you don't know, of course, our tea has to be tried for the guests first, so that you can know which tea is delicious!" ”

Su Xiaoman's jaw said: "Okay, since that's the case, it's better for the little second brother to introduce it first, I am a woman who naturally doesn't know as much as you!" ”

The shopkeeper raised his head and was full of confidence, and said: "Our tea has Pu'er, Chrysanthemum, Da Hong Pao, Biluochun, Longjing, Maozhu Jian'er, Lushan Yunwu, Mengding Tea, Purple Bamboo Shoot Tea, Huading Yunwu, etc., I don't know what kind of tea Madame wants to drink?" ”

Originally, when I entered the store, I looked at the tea jar of the whole wooden cabinet behind the counter and marked the type of tea, but when I heard the shopkeeper say this, it was suddenly a little messy, and the shopkeeper had been standing in front of the tea table and waiting, and he was stunned and said: "Since this is the case, let's come to Biluochun first, Pu'er and Lushan Yunwu to try!" ”

"Okay!"

The shopkeeper turned around and walked to the counter in response, only to see him say two words to the shopkeeper, and hurriedly walked into the tea room.

Half a moment later, the shopkeeper came to Su Xiaoman's table with a tea tray, Xiao Yuan frowned and asked, "Isn't your tea brewed yet?" How do you bring it like this? ”

The shopkeeper put down the tea tray in his hand, smiled and said to Xiao Yuan: "The girl doesn't know, the so-called tea ceremony, naturally you have to make your own tea to be delicious, if someone else brews the temperature is not suitable!" ”

Xiao Yuan is shallow-eyed, naturally he doesn't know what a tea ceremony is, and he waits for the master who doesn't brew the tea and take it out, so it is not surprising that there is this question.

After putting down the tea tray in his hand, Su Xiaoman realized that making tea was also a science, and he was a little surprised when he looked at the tea tray with all kinds of tea.

"This little second brother, I am not very familiar with the tea ceremony, I wonder if the little second brother can demonstrate it for me?"

I saw that the little second brother put out the tea sets in the tea tray one by one, and kept talking about the use of the tea sets.

"The tea bowl is the soul of the tea ceremony, and it is also one of the most important tea utensils, the tea pet, the pet of the tea maker!"

Speaking of this, Su Xiaoman asked: "What is a tea pet?" ”

"Ceramics made of purple sand firing, when drinking tea, use tea water to dripping on it, over time, the tea pet will become warm and moist, and the tea fragrance will overflow."

After explaining for a while, the shop did not stop in the second-hand work, only to see that he first poured the first cup of brewed tea on the ceramic tea pet, and then put two small ceramic cups in front of the two people with tweezers, and his fingers did not touch the tea or teacup at all, which looked very clean.

After pouring the first tea, Dian Xiaoer then poured boiling water into the teapot, but stopped pouring the tea, and lit the incense in the hollow carved incense burner placed on the side, Su Xiaoman was a little puzzled, and hurriedly asked: "What does this aromatherapy have to do with tea?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Tea tasting is an art, tea and incense are inseparable, tea tasting is enjoyment, incense is feeling!" That's why aromatherapy is also very important! ”

After lighting the incense, the shopkeeper picked up the purple clay pot and poured the fragrant tea into Su Xiaoman and Xiaoyuan's cups, and said: "The first pot, aged Pu'er, has the effect of moistening the intestines and laxative, please!" ”

Su Xiaoman stretched out his orchid finger and raised his glass to pick up the purple sand teacup in front of him, the fragrance of tea naturally poured into the tip of his nose, tasted it lightly, and had a sweet taste, only to feel that the whole environment was very comfortable, and he couldn't help but nod and said, "Hmm!" Not bad! ”

On the contrary, Xiao Yuan, who was sitting opposite Su Xiaoman, really couldn't taste the mystery of this tea, he only felt that this series of actions was very troublesome, and he was not happy at all. ”

Xiao Yuan pouted angrily and glanced at the shopkeeper: "I'm just a vulgar person, how can I understand these tea ceremonies, you don't want to be yin and yang!" My wife comes to taste tea, you just have to greet the good lady! ”

What she said was not reasonable, so the shopkeeper didn't dare to say anything, tried three kinds of tea, Su Xiaoman felt quite good, although this teahouse is simple and elegant, but the humanities are very good, that is to say, this teahouse has become Su Xiaoman's first choice, but I don't know if this teahouse has tea seeds to sell, just wanted to ask, but the shopkeeper opened his mouth first.

"Madam, what kind of tea do you need, our tea here can be sold by catties, or sold twice, if you don't want to buy so much, you can choose a few more, buy a few taels!"

The shopkeeper smiled diligently, thinking that there would be a big business when she looked at Su Xiaoman's dress, but she didn't think so, only to see Su Xiaoman take a silver ingot from his purse and put it on the table.

"Little second brother, I won't buy tea today, this silver is enough for tea, right?"

Looking at the big ingot of silver on the table, the shopkeeper immediately smiled happily and said, "Enough, you wait, the small one will find you money!" ”

"No need, little second brother, today you let me taste a tea ceremony with a meaningful intention, and the rest will be a reward for you, if you want to buy tea, I will definitely come to you!"

Hearing that he had a silver reward, the shopkeeper was happy, he had never seen such a generous guest, and he actually gave ten taels of silver for a tea money, and the shopkeeper only received three taels of silver for the top of the three-flavor tea.

Su Xiaoman got up and wanted to walk out of the store, but the shopkeeper followed behind, until he walked out of the store, Su Xiaoman turned around and asked, "Little second brother, do you have tea here, I don't know if you also sell tea seeds in this store?"

The shopkeeper frowned, don't buy tea, buy tea seeds? But he still said happily: "We don't have ready-made tea seeds in our store, but if Mrs. likes it, you can order some from the tea merchant for Mrs., but I don't know what Mrs. wants?" ”

"Okay, then I'll come back later!"

After saying that, Bi Su Xiaoman left the teahouse, and the shopkeeper scratched his head in confusion, and shouted at the door with a smile on his face in a blink of an eye, pulling the guests.

Xiao Yuan followed behind Su Xiaoman, and when he saw her looking at the various tea shops, he stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Why didn't Madame order tea seeds in that teahouse?" ”

"Shop around, if his tea is really good, then the source of tea seeds must also be good, we naturally have to understand which tea is good first!"

Xiao Yuan nodded knowingly and didn't ask more, and followed Su Xiaoman to visit a lot of teahouses and tea shops, but they were all the same and not as meaningful as the first one, and the people who served them did not know the tea ceremony very well, although the decorations were very luxurious, but the taste was far from the first one, but looking at the business exchanges, the business of those luxuriously decorated shops was better.

Maybe the first teahouse was just for the real sale of tea and tea tasting, not for business, so it didn't matter if there were only three or five customers in the shop.

At noon, Su Xiaoman took Xiao Yuan to a low-key looking restaurant in the market for lunch, and returned to the teahouse again in the afternoon, ready to talk to the owner of the teahouse about buying tea seeds, and when he arrived at the door of the teahouse, he saw Wei Yuan get off the carriage and walk into the teahouse.

As soon as the front foot entered, Su Xiaoman followed, and the shopkeeper saw that she was coming again, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet her: "Madam, have you made up your mind now?" ”

"Who was the one who just went in?"

"Oh, that's King Wei Yuan, a frequent customer in our shop, he often comes to us to buy tea!"

With the greeting of the shopkeeper, Su Xiaoman did not sit in the position led by the shopkeeper, turned his eyes and looked around, and saw Wei Yuan sitting in the position where she was sitting before, and the shopkeeper of the teahouse greeted Wei Yuan in person.

Su Xiaoman stepped forward slowly, his movements made the shopkeeper a little confused, and he just wanted to call her to stop, only to hear Su Xiaoman squat down and salute softly: "Brother Huang is really interested!" ”

Wei Yuan, who was still talking to the shopkeeper, didn't notice Su Xiaoman's figure, and only then did he react when he heard her voice, and said in surprise: "Little sister, why are you here?" Come and sit! ”

The shopkeeper listened to the conversation between the two, Brother Huang? Younger sister? The prince's sister? Isn't it a princess? The stunned expression froze, and he stared at the back of Su Xiaoman's head with his mouth open in surprise.

Xiao Yuan stared sideways at the shopkeeper and looked at his stunned expression, and couldn't help laughing and whispering: "The saliva is about to fall, put your mouth away!" ”

poked the shoulder of the shopkeeper with his elbow, and then he reacted, and hurriedly arched his hand: "The little one has eyes and doesn't know Taishan, I hope the princess will forgive me!" ”

The shopkeeper's reply interrupted the conversation between Su Xiaoman and Wei Yuan, and Su Xiaoman pursed his lips and smiled: "Shhhh ”

"What's low-key, what are you doing in the tea market?"

Wei Yuan waved his hand and motioned for the shopkeeper to retreat, he could only retreat obediently, standing at the door far away, but his eyes still drifted in from time to time to look at Su Xiaoman and Wei Yuan.

"Why did the royal brother come to the teahouse today, is the tea in the palace not delicious?"

Su Xiaoman said jokingly, Wei Yuan picked up the teacup in front of him and tasted it carefully: "What, little sister, don't laugh at this king, this tea that is not tributed in the palace is not in line with the king's appetite, so I came out to buy tea!" ”

"Do you still need the royal brother to come in person for this little thing? Why don't you just send someone from the house to fetch tea! ”

The rolled orchid fingers, the immature and slender fingers carried the teapot and poured a cup into Wei Yuan's teacup, and learned to demonstrate it as the shop junior saw in the morning.

Wei Yuan looked at Su Xiaoman's movements and said in surprise: "What? My little sister also understands the way of tasting tea? ”

In the past, it was fashionable to make tea in Canglan, but the method was completely different from the tea ceremony of Sulfur Abyss, so making tea and tea ceremony are diametrically opposite, she smiled slightly and said: "How can I understand anything, I learned from the little second brother at the door this morning, if I didn't come today, I wouldn't know that Sulfur Yuan's tea ceremony is so mysterious!" ”
