Chapter 21: A Mule or a Horse, Pull It Out for a Walk!
Qin Tian and the boy turned around in unison, and saw the eldest lady walking towards them with Yueniang's support.
Today, the eldest lady is wearing a willow blue soft arrowroot knee-length single shirt, a snow satin moire pleated skirt underneath, a gold-embroidered Fu character pattern armor, a round bun on her head, a silk jade golden hairpin, and a forehead embroidered with twig patterns. Dressed elegantly, with a dignified temperament, with a smile on his calm face, he slowly walked to their side.
Every move looks magnificent.
Qin Tian knew that the eldest lady had already listened to what he had just said, and his heart couldn't help but jump, he didn't know how the eldest lady would react, would he feel that he was too provoking as a slave?
Since crossing over, she has worked hard to adapt to life here, remembering her humble status, and trying not to do things that are inconsistent with her identity, because she knows that she is now just a maid who sells herself, and the deed of sale is dragged in the hands of the master, so that she can live and die, and live like a human or a beast is just a matter of the master's thoughts.
Who called her not as good as other crossing women, as soon as she crossed over, she had a prominent identity, the appearance of Allure, and countless beautiful men around her, all of whom were willing to go up the knife mountain and go down the oil pot for her, she had nothing, so she could only do her duty.
Fortunately, she has always been optimistic, and she doesn't think it's bitter, but comforts herself that it's a good thing that she can live again after death, and not everyone can be so lucky. She strives to do her part well, get along well with the people around her, even if she is a subordinate, and try to make herself as comfortable as possible.
However, no matter how rational she is, no matter how calm she is, she is a soul who does not belong to this world after all, she grew up in another world, received an equal and free education, although she has done everything on her face, but she has never regarded herself as a lowly person in her bones.
Yes, there will be the resistance of the eldest lady in the last emergency, and that is for his own fate; There will also be this retention of Gongzi Xie, because she feels that she has this responsibility
As for the consequences...... Although she will be scared and panicked, she will not regret it, let alone shirk her responsibility.
Qin Tian watched the eldest lady walk to his side, and hurriedly blessed her, saying, "The slave and maid collided with the guest, and please punish the wife!" ”
The eldest lady glanced at Qin Tian, her face was not shocked, she didn't say anything, just waved her hand lightly.
Yueniang next to her said, "Qin Tian, you go down first." ”
Qin Tian lowered his head, didn't dare to look at others anymore, and slowly exited the lobby, until he retreated to the side door leading to the inner room, standing behind Cuiwei.
Cuiwei looked ahead, reached out backwards, and twisted her hand lightly. Then he turned his head slightly, lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you tell you not to bump into the guests?" ”
"It's all my fault, Sister Cuiwei." Qin Tian lowered his head and whispered,
"I don't know how my wife will punish you, I'm really anxious!" Cuiwei's voice was full of worry.
Qin Tian couldn't help but be moved, in fact, she hadn't done anything for Cuiwei, but she took the initiative to help a few hands when she was busy and couldn't win, but that was what she should do as a maid, right?
"However, Qin Tian ......" Cuiwei looked back at her and smiled, covering her mouth with her hand, "Those words are so beautiful, I didn't expect you to be so smart." ”
"How can you say it is so good." Qin Tian touched his head embarrassedly, and asked again, "Will Mrs. be very angry?" ”
"Do you know you're scared? ......Cuiwei looked at her and smiled, and said, "Don't worry, I'll beg Yueniang to plead with my wife later, and see if the punishment can be lighter." ”
Qin Tian took a step closer, took Cuiwei's hand, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Sister Cuiwei." ”
She has always known that no one should be good to her, she will not hate those who are not good to her, and she will remember those who are good to her, and when the time is right, she will return the favor.
When she has a smooth mind, she will be happy and happy.
Cuiwei smiled again.
In front, the eldest lady bowed slightly to Gongzi Xie, and said with a smile: "The old man salutes the guest officer." ”
At this time, Gongzi Xie had already put away his frivolity and bowed respectfully to the eldest lady: "Don't dare, don't dare, it should be the juniors who give Mrs. Zhuang a salute!" ”
Qin Tian only pouted when he saw it, slandering in his heart, these two faces were too obvious......
The eldest lady smiled and made a "please" gesture, and her gestures were extraordinary
"It's better to let the old man answer the doubts for the son."
After speaking, the eldest lady walked to the wooden barrel containing "Erquan Silver Quill", bent down, held her sleeve with one hand, grabbed a handful of tea leaves from the barrel with the other, turned around, walked to Xie Gongzi's side, and stretched out her hand in front of him.
Gongzi Xie hurriedly took a step back and bowed down to show respect.
The eldest lady glanced at him, and then said with a smile: "New tea and old tea are generally distinguished by three methods: one is to look at its color, the color of new tea is emerald green, and the color of old tea is dark. Childe, please see, the color of these two springs of silver quill is bright green, but it is not the color of old tea! ”
Gongzi Xie nodded yes.
The other guys and guests next to him slowly gathered around, their eyes almost focused on the eldest lady, the guys' eyes were full of reverence, and the guests' eyes were also full of admiration.
The eldest lady who was watched by everyone did not look half flustered, she looked at Xie Gongzi and smiled calmly, motioned for him to take out some tea leaves in his hand, and continued: "The second is to smell its fragrance, the new tea is fragrant, and the old tea is faint; The aroma of the new tea is strong and mellow, and the old tea has become low due to the time it has been placed for too long, and if it is not stored properly, there may be a musty smell or other peculiar smells, so you may wish to smell it......"
Xie Gongzi took the tea leaves in his hand to his nose and sniffed them gently, and then said with a smile: "The fragrance is fragrant, and it refreshes the heart and spleen!" ”
Some of the guests next to him also took out some tea leaves and smelled them, while others laughed and said loudly: "The tea leaves of the prosperous era are famous for their fragrance!" ”
The eldest lady looked around with a smile, raised her voice and said, "Thanks to the support of neighbors and friends from afar, there is today's pomp and circumstance of Shengshi!" The old body is so polite! The voice is subdued, high-pitched and powerful, and the expression and demeanor exude extraordinary momentum!
At this time, no one will think that the eldest lady is a woman and have the slightest contempt!
Everyone hurriedly arched their hands and said, "Don't dare, don't dare." ”
The eldest lady smiled, looked back at Gongzi Xie again, and stretched out three fingers, "This third, and most important point, is to taste its taste!" As the saying goes, it's a mule or a horse, pull it out for a walk! The taste of new tea is mellow and fresh, while the old tea is light and unpleasant. This can't be faked no matter what! ”
After speaking, she turned her head and shouted, "Xu Fuquan!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a man dressed in a dark blue trim and a goatee came out and bowed his hand to the eldest lady, "Madam, what do you command?" ”
