Chapter 402: Three Seasons Same Taste
Cui'er came to this tea garden to stir tea, but the children thought they were out to have fun. The children were thrilled to see the scenery in the mountains, which was completely different from their own garden.
"Mother, mother...... Look at the trees and birds! When Cui'er was directing her subordinates to clean up her things, she was running around like a little swallow that had just come out of the nest, and her little face was red and fluttering because of the movement, and she looked very lovely.
"Yes, yes, mother, it's so fun here, let's stay longer!" Xiaobao was a little nervous to protect his sister who was running around, and his eyes were also shining, and he obviously loved this kind of environment very much.
The youngest Lantern Festival of "Dog ......" is not as long as his brothers and sisters, and he can run around, only staying in the yard under the care of the nurse, and somehow, he found two little milk dogs, with white bodies like meat balls, fluffy and cute.
Xiao Lantern Xiao rushed up and hugged a little milk dog in front of her, grinning happily, obviously very satisfied with this place.
Cui'er looked at the children's excited appearance, and saw the green hills full of rows of tea trees behind the house, and suddenly felt like she had returned to the backer, and her heart was full of peace and tranquility.
"Xiaobao, soft, you guys have a good time, this is in the mountains, there may be wild beasts, you can't run too far, you know?" Cui'er first instructed the two older children, and then turned to look at Xiao Lantern Festival, "Lantern Festival, the dog is dirty." You have to give it a bath before you can hug it! ”
Cui'er knows that children like small animals, and it doesn't matter if she lets the children play with this little milk dog before it is time to teeth. He said with a smile. After instructing Yahuan to take the little milk dog down, bathe them and feed them, then bring them to play again.
Because of the carriage ride for a day, no matter how good the children's health is, they are a little unbearable after dinner. They all leaned on the big kang near the window and dozed off, and after a while, they fell asleep.
Cui'er listened to the cicadas chirping outside. There is also a frog croaking from time to time, and the faint fragrance of the tea trees wafting from the tea mountain is smelled between the wings of the nose. I only felt that my heart that had been panicking because of Lian Qingshan's going to the battlefield, and the emotion of not being able to live in peace because of the selection of the emperor and businessmen, miraculously had a feeling of calmness.
A dreamless night, when Cui'er woke up to the sound of birdsong in the early morning. I actually feel refreshed, and my mind is also very clear. Looking at the three children sleeping soundly on the kang, a smile bloomed on Cui'er's lips, even for the sake of these three lovely children, in order to give them a better life and a better future, I must be strong and cheer up, and I must make the same taste of good tea in those three seasons.
After washing, Cui'er had just had breakfast. I saw two black wood and charcoal heads, with a body of dew and a large basket full of tea green coming back from the tea mountain.
"Why are you two so early?" Cui'er looked at the two teenagers with an excited look on their faces, and said with a smile.
"I've been depressed in the capital for too long. I finally came out, so I went up the mountain and went around! Kuroki and Tantou grinned, put down the basket they were carrying, just like when they were in the backing mountain, very simple and hearty.
"How about the green tea here, what kind of tea do you think is more suitable for making?" Cui'er smiled and put down the teacup in her hand. He stepped forward and stretched out his hand to pinch a few pieces of tea green and put them in his hand. Take a closer look.
This tea green is picked with one bud and one leaf, because the time has come to leave, the leaves of tea green are dark green, oily and watery. The morning dew has not yet dissipated, and the tea in the tea basket is still a little wet.
"The tea green here is slightly bitter and astringent, sweet and mellow, and the tea green in our garden is very similar, if you want to make tea, you can try the snow bloom." Seeing Cui'er's question, Tantou said excitedly when Kuroki was still bowing his head and pondering.
"Well, what does Kuroki think?" Cui'er blinked, but was noncommittal, but turned her head and asked Kuroki again.
"Although this tea green is slightly bitter, it is not as bitter as the tea green in the tea garden in the backing mountain. But its taste is not as mellow and fragrant as the tea on the tea mountain, and silver buds and the like can't be made, so it looks like it makes green tea...... "Kuroki is a cautious and honest character, and he is not completely sure that he will not tell the result."
Cui'er nodded, knowing what Kuroki meant, but she didn't say anything more, but put the piece of tea green that she had just pinched in her hand and chewed it carefully.
Tea green is the foundation of tea, although the preparation method is very important, but the tea is made of tea green. Although the taste of tea will become more mellow and long because of kneading and roasting, it cannot change the original tone, but it is only improved and blended.
With this small piece of tea green in the mouth, Cui'er felt that her entire mouth was filled with a faint bitterness and fragrance. Different from the snow bloom tea so bitter and heavy, different from the old camellia rich aroma with sweetness, this tea green entrance, first a faint bitter and faint color, and then gradually gushing back to sweet, continuous and very mellow.
"It's such a good tea!" After a long time, Cui'er came to her senses from her artistic conception, took a deep breath, and only felt that her lips and teeth were fragrant. Just this green tea is so rich, if it is made into tea, wouldn't it be very rich?
Cui'er has joy and longing in her heart, but more is hesitation, although this tea green can be made into snow bloom tea or green tea, but it is not suitable for making these two kinds of tea, making these two kinds of tea, will lose the unique mellow aroma of this tea.
How, exactly? Cui'er hesitated for a moment. From his own selfish point of view, this tea green should be made into different teas, but for the sake of the competition of this imperial businessman, he can only choose one from his own existing spring tea varieties and use this ready-made tea green to make autumn tea.
"Well, let's try your tea-making skills. Kuroki uses this tea to make green tea. The charcoal head uses this tea green to make snow bloom tea, and you each take one or two spring teas to see the tea made from this green tea. Which is the taste more similar to. Cui'er thought for a long time, exhaled a long breath, and said.
Because of the uncertainty in her heart, Cui'er continued to try various tea methods in the next few days, and made this tea into silver buds, green tea, green leaf tea, snow bloom and even black tea and black tea, and then took the most similar taste of green leaf tea and snow blossom tea to continue research.
The two children, Kuroki and Tantou, show Cui'er their freshly made tea every day. Although the technique of making tea is not as skilled as Cui'er, it is already very similar to the existing tea.
Time passes little by little. While supervising the tea making of Kuroki and Charcoal, Cui'er is also spending her own efforts to study the tea making business. It took five days of hard work to finally figure out a tea making method that is more similar to Biye tea, and I was very excited for a while.
Cui'er took out the spring tea of Biye Tea. I also took the summer tea of the green leaf tea, and the newly made summer tea, look at its shape to distinguish its color, because it is made by the same technique, although the appearance of the three kinds of tea is slightly different, but at a glance you know that it is the same kind of tea.
The three kinds of tea are thickly brewed into three pots, taste the tea aroma, look at the tea color and taste the tea taste, the tea soup brewed out of the three kinds of tea is the same clear, and the tea leaves at the bottom of the cup are the same stretch shape. The aroma is very similar.
"Daddy, come and try it!" Cui'er sent someone to call her father early, and now the tea is brewed. Master Ye arrived, and Cui'er smiled and beckoned her father to come over to try the tea.
"Okay, I'll try it!" Master Ye looked at the excited look on Cui'er's face, walked to the table with a smile, and looked at the bright and fragrant Biye tea with three times the tea soup in front of him, and his eyes lit up.
Master Ye was not in a hurry to drink tea. Instead, he sat at the table and took a deep breath. The scent of tea flows down the nose into the lungs and spreads to the limbs, making people feel refreshed.
"The aroma of this tea is very similar, if it is not soaked in the tea leaves for decades, it is really impossible to distinguish!" Master Ye picked up a cup of tea and said softly. Master Ye brought the teacup in his hand to his lips, took a sip gently, and tasted the taste carefully, and there was no sound in the room for a while.
Cui'er held her breath and watched her father's every move, the tea he took just now was not taken at random, but he suddenly took the green leaf tea that he fried with the tea green of Yanyi Town, it can be seen that although this tea is similar, it is not exactly the same.
Thinking of this, Cui'er's heart was a little low, and she could be distinguished by her own father, and naturally she could also be distinguished by others. Rao is there not many tea merchants in the capital who know how to make tea like his own father, but there is no guarantee that there is no at all, right?
"Well, that's good!" Master Ye put down the teacup and nodded with satisfaction, "Your Biye Tea is ninety percent similar to the Biye Summer Tea in Huxi, if it is directly made from the tea green tea in this tea garden, the taste will only be more similar." ”
"Daddy, I also made some snow bloom tea, which is not as similar as green leaves, but it tastes good." Cui'er said, and took the snow bloom tea to brew for Master Ye to taste.
After Ye Lao's tasting, he felt that it was better to make green tea from green tea, so Cui'er was ready to take advantage of the fact that the summer was still there, and made more summer tea with green leaf tea, only after a few days of autumn, he could pick tea to make autumn tea with a more similar taste.
After finishing her business, Cui'er had the heart to play with the children. Xiaobao and soft two, since childhood was brought to the capital by Cui'er, has not seen the beauty of the mountains, in this midsummer time, like a wild horse off the leash, galloping on the tea mountain next to the stream, I can't wait to play outside for twelve hours a day.
And Lantern Festival prefers her little pet, holding the baby dog around all day, that cute appearance makes Cui'er somehow remind of the big girl and Xiaohu's childhood. At that time, Xiaohu also ran around in front of and behind the house with a reunion in his arms.
Tuan Tuan Reunion was too big, so Cui'er put them in the mountains, and they have been in the capital for so many years, and I don't know if they are doing well in the mountains.
Cui'er looked down at the little milk dog lying at her feet, and her memories were slowly surging like flowing water. The scenes of joy or sorrow in the backing mountain appeared in front of Cui'er's eyes, but it was just a matter of a few years, and it seemed that a long, long time had passed. (To be continued)
