Chapter 41: Tea Fighting (1)

Different from the snowflakes outside, listening to the snow pavilion is lively and warm. A small stage was arranged near the window, and a well-dressed female singer was rapping cliff lyrics, talking about the heroic Zhang Yichuan.

Lin Yuzhen sat around with a group of women in the spring breeze, listening and laughing in a low voice. Lu Yun also led a few little girls of about the same age to sit in another place, eating snacks and chattering endlessly.

Seeing that the Wen family led the Lin family sisters in, Lin Yuzhen and Lu Yun beckoned them to sit down. Lin Yuzhen was in a good mood, and kindly asked the girls if it was cold on the road, and asked Lin Jinrong if Tao's body was better, why didn't Lin Jinyin come?

"My uncle's family came to deliver the winter solstice gift, and my sister couldn't go out, so I asked me to make amends to my aunt and cousin for her." Lin Jinrong swept his eyes, and he could see from the room full of people who was the guest of honor among these people today.

Lin Yuzhen sat on the left hand side of the five-short figure, wearing a silver rat skin out of the front sandalwood small sleeve placket, tulip pleated skirt, combing a large bun, inserting Jin Chuan, the woman with light eyebrows is the wife of Pingzhou Zhizhou, Song; The cheekbones on the right side are slightly high, combing the phoenix bun, wearing a green lotus-colored small sleeve placket with silver ratskin and a blue pleated skirt is the wife of the Wu family, Wu Xiang's mother Yang.

And the girl next to Lu Yun who was wearing a lilac-colored muskrat skin jacket, with gold beads inserted in her bun and ruby earrings in her ears, was Wu Xiang's cousin, Yang's niece Yang Mo. At this time, both of them were busy taking care of a little girl who was only seven or eight years old, wearing a big red jacket and combing her hair. This little girl is Su Zhenzhen, the son-in-law of the Zhizhou family. In addition, there are a few girls who know each other, but they are just nodding friends with Lin Jinrong.

How similar it was back then! Presumably, Lin Yuzhen will ask Lu Yun to perform the skill of dividing tea. Lin Jinrong lowered his eyes and pondered, only to hear Lin Yuzhen smile and say: "Since this is the case, then it's no wonder that the three girls are there." ”

On the side, Yang became interested: "Your uncle has arrived?" Who's coming? ”

Tao Shunqin is the son-in-law of the Wu family, if it weren't for Tao's trouble, Tao Shunqin's father and son should have gone to the Wu family to visit the second elder of the Wu family before coming to the Lin family. Lin Jinrong smiled sweetly at the Yang family and explained in a low voice: "Uncle and eldest cousin are here. Because my mother was not in good health, I asked them to invite a doctor, so I sent the doctor to my house first. I'm afraid that it will be a little later to go to the house to greet the old lady and the old lady. ”

"This kid is so careful." Yang smiled and looked at Lin Jinrong carefully, and said to Lin Yuzhen: "The girl of your Lin family is just good-looking. ”

"You praise them again." Lin Yuzhen couldn't help but look at Lin Jinrong carefully. Lin Jinrong is wearing a jacket with a begonia red moire gray squirrel skin today, a blue pleated skirt tied underneath, a few beaded flowers on the double bun, and gold lilacs in the ears. In terms of dress, she is not more outstanding than the other girls of the Lin family, but with her long eyebrows, porcelain white and delicate skin, and quiet and beautiful expression, standing there is conspicuous, comparing the other little girls in the room.

Lin Yuzhen suddenly became a little unhappy inexplicably, pointed to Lu Yun's side, and said, "Go and play with your sister and them, it's not in an outsider's house, what you want to eat, just tell the maids." ”

Lin Jinrong is very familiar with Lin Yuzhen, and when she looks at her pretending to be generous, but in fact she is a little impatient, she knows that she is inexplicably unhappy. But he no longer had the same mood as before when he was unhappy when he saw her, and he was so afraid that he didn't know what to do, so he only smiled slightly, bowed, and retreated.

When you take a seat, girls, your clothes are good-looking, her hands are chic, where is the rouge gouache exquisite, whose pastries are delicious and chattered for a while, Lu Yun glanced at Lin Wu, and Lin Wu smiled lightly: "Sister Yun, I heard that Jiangnan also loves to do tea fights, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”

Lu Yun smiled gently: "There is such a thing. ”

Lin Wu said: "Then you are from Jiangnan, I think you must be proficient?" I'm curious, is Jiangnan different from us here? I've heard people say that you have been instructed by a famous teacher, can you open our eyes? ”

Anyone who has a little heart can understand that this is a prelude to Lu Yun's talent performance in public.

Although Yang Mo is not from the Wu family, he often lives in the Wu family, and he is also familiar with Lin Jinrong, and when he heard the words, he smiled at Lin Jinrong with understanding. Lin Jinrong smiled back at her and lowered her eyes, Lin Yuzhen really took great pains for this only daughter.

This technique of dividing tea, the style of tea fighting, was prevalent in this dynasty and was regarded as an extremely elegant activity. Not to mention that it is prevalent among literati and nobles, even in the court and in the market, it is also very popular. Elegant people are proud of their good tea skills, if Lu Yun can really astonish the four people, he will soon be famous among the scholars of Pingzhou.

I only listened to Lu Yun's modest excuse: "Oh, although I know a little, it's difficult to get into the elegant hall, no, don't let me be embarrassed in public, right?" ”

Lin Wu said, "Sister Yun, what are you still modest?" Come on, come on, sisters have a rare chance to get together, let's see? ”

Lin Qi holds a grudge, since the last time Lu Lun scolded her for killing a woman, Lu Yun followed and laughed at her, and after she came out of the grounding, she found that Lu Yun and Lin Wu were very close, and after she squeezed her place in front of Mrs. Lin, she hated Lu Yun and Lin Wu, and saw that nothing was pleasing to the eye. Therefore, he bumped Lin Liu's arm with disdain, and whispered: "It's really boring, I'm slapping my ass again." She knows everything. Isn't it just a split tea? Or has it been pointed out by a famous teacher, and the fourth sister has not seen any famous teacher to point out, so she can still be divided? Cast a mist before somebody's eyes. ”

Lin Liu wanted to rape her, so he hurriedly pinched her arm and whispered, "Don't talk about it." ”

"Forget it, if you can't get used to it, you won't watch it, okay?" Lin Qi pouted, lowered his head and peeled the melon seeds, and said no more.

Lin Jinrong's eyelashes trembled, and he raised his eyes and interjected: "Cousin Yun, it's rare that the sisters all have Yaxing, so you can barely make it difficult, let us feast our eyes." ”

Lu Yun wanted to push it again, Lin Wu had already gotten up and walked up to Lin Yuzhen and said with a smile: "Auntie, we heard that Cousin Yun knows how to divide tea in Jiangnan, and we want to take a look and taste it." But she was shy, so she refused, aunt, you send a word, let her not be lazy! ”

A talent like Lin Wu is exactly what Lin Yuzhen needs most at this moment, Lin Yuzhen smiled and bent her eyebrows at the moment, and wanted to be pretending to be modest: "What will she do?" Don't let her embarrass me. ”

As soon as these words came out, both the Yang family and the Song family persuaded one after another: "Let us also open our eyes." Hiding the benefits of your own daughter in such a stingy way, are you afraid that we will rob your daughter with you or what? ”

Lin Yuzhen covered her mouth and smiled: "You poor mouths, I am stingy. Well, a child's thing, if you don't take it seriously, don't laugh at her. ”

Everyone said, "How can you laugh at her?" We ourselves are not proficient, we are just watching the excitement and feasting our mouths. ”

Lu Yun got up, straightened his sideburns, straightened his own dazzling and precious gold-sprinkled pomegranate skirt, stroked the white and flawless mutton fat jade ring hanging from the skirt, and saluted everyone with a smile: "I'm not skilled, just to make fun of my aunts and sisters, please don't laugh at me if it's inappropriate." ”

Everyone laughed and said, "Who can laugh at you, just let go of your hands and feet." ”

The red flower still needs to be supported by green leaves, even if Lu Yun separates a flower, it will not show her good without a foil, but it will be too obvious. Lin Yuzhen glanced at everyone and said, "The other children are also playing together." Let's judge, whoever shows the water mark first loses. Since it is a tea fight, it can't be without a colorful head, so I will come out of this water spirit double lotus hairpin on my head. "After saying that, he really plucked a water spirit double lotus hairpin from his head, the hairpin is finely carved, crystal clear, not a vulgar thing, and it is worth tens of thousands of dollars. She is so generous, she is obviously full of confidence in Lu Yun's tea splitting skills.

Mrs. Song of Zhizhou was originally from the capital, and she was well-informed, so when she heard the words, she pulled out a purple gold phoenix title pearl hairpin from her head, and put it on the tea bed in front of her boldly, and said: "I will take out this purple gold crested hairpin, although this hairpin is not worth much, but it is from the old craftsman of the Tang family's gold and silver shop in Beijing." Just treat it as a novelty for the girls to play with. ”

Yang also smiled, took off the moist jade swallow hairpin on his head, and said softly: "I'll have fun too." ”

The other ladies who sat with them also donated their money, and the things were all delicate gadgets.

The girls looked at each other, but no one took the initiative. Lin Jinrong didn't worry about it at all, Lin Yuzhen had already arranged it, how could there be an accident? After a while, a girl named Lu Yang'er from the side of the Lu family got up and said with a smile: "I also like to play in my spare time, why don't I join in this fun." ”

Lin Jinrong gently poked Yang Mo: "You also have a good share of tea, why don't you try it?" Yang Mo was also one of the people who fought tea with Lu Yun back then, but none of them were Lu Yun's opponents.

Yang Mo is affected by the family style, and he also claims to be an elegant person, and there is still a hairpin of his aunt in it, so he shouldn't cheapen outsiders in vain. Therefore, she has long been eager to try, even if Lin Jinrong doesn't persuade her, she will go, but at this moment, Lin Jinrong persuaded her like this and pushed her out, and her appearance seemed logical, rather than deliberately competing with others to show off. reciprocated the favor, and she also invited Lin Jinrong: "I remember that you also like this, let's go together?" ”

In the past, Lin Jinrong was cautious in her words and deeds because of the relationship between her parents, and she was afraid of getting into trouble, and she almost sat quietly on the side as a spectator on this occasion, so even if she was confident that Lu Yunfei was her opponent, she never attracted anyone to participate. But this time, she had a bad heart, and she had the intention to smash Lu Yun's field, wanting to make Lin Yuzhen and Lu Yun hate her. At that moment, he lowered his head and said with a low smile: "Jiangnan Yashiduo, Cousin Yun is from Jiangnan, has a wide range of knowledge, and has been instructed by a famous expert, I am not skilled and dare not go, I am afraid of losing my ugliness in vain." ”

When Yang Mo heard this, his competitive heart became more and more competitive, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a low voice: "You are so unreasonable!" Obviously not worse than others, everything has to be lowered first, and before you compare, you admit defeat, it's really useless! This temperament is really depressing, I really can't help it, you have to participate, you have to participate, you have to participate if you don't participate. ”
