Chapter 182: Cooking Tea and Talking about the Tao
After the farce, the number of people who came to Lian's house decreased sharply, and almost all the people in the village who wanted to have a good relationship with Lian Qingshan were waiting, waiting for the commotion between Lian Qingshan and Cui'er, waiting for someone to go to Lianjia to find a relationship to be successful, and waiting for Lianjia to appear in the updated news.
However, the people who were waiting were disappointed, after the concubine farce, the Lian family was as if nothing like this had ever happened, except for relatives such as Lian Qinghe, Aunt Lu, or Aunt Chunzhu, who was familiar with Cui'er, went to visit, there was no news quietly.
Cui'er sat on the kang, happily enjoying the small snacks sent by Mrs. Qian, reached out and pinched a piece of soft and glutinous small round cake made of glutinous rice flour, and took a bite of the sesame seeds on it and fell into her mouth, only to feel that it was full of fragrant.
"Sister-in-law, your dim sum is really good, delicious!" Cui'er squinted with a smile and said with a look of enjoyment.
"Where is your craft good, it's just a thing to pass the time when you are bored at home." Mrs. Qian said with some self-deprecation, her face full of worry about her master, and confusion about the future.
At this time of the year, it is the busiest time for my lord and myself, and the relationship between people doing business is very important.
But this year is different, there is no shop at home, there is no basis for equality with the old men in the town, although there are also people who are willing to associate with themselves, but that is only when the festival is given a year ago, the procurement offices of each house are respectful to their own masters, and if you want to return to the original way, you can visit them in the first month, and now you are no longer qualified.
"Sister-in-law, this is not what you look like, the sister-in-law in my mind, I don't frown when the sky falls, Brother Qian was relegated to his home at the beginning. You can strategize in the county to keep your family's assets, but now you are just being underestimated, what is it, and we will make a big business together in the future. Are you afraid that the snobs won't come back to scold you? Cui'er held a cup of hot water in her hand, sipped it slowly, and immediately clicked on the reason why the money shopkeeper and his wife were in a bad mood recently.
"Sister, you can still see it, recently your eldest brother can't sleep every night, sighing all day long, I know he feels bad in his heart, how can I feel good?" Mrs. Qian thought of her father-in-law's recent empty and lost appearance, and couldn't help but say distressedly.
"Sister-in-law, how will you and your eldest brother develop after the year. Any thoughts? Cui'er wanted to tell Mrs. Qian directly about her development plan, but she was afraid that they would have their own ideas, so she asked tentatively.
"Thoughts? What an idea! Mrs. Qian sighed fiercely, "Your eldest brother has been with me in Shili Town for more than ten years, and our roots are here." If you go somewhere else, you can't be reluctant on the one hand, and if you want to re-operate your network, it will take a lot of effort. ”
"But...... What else can we do to stay in this Ten Mile Town? Your eldest brother wants to make up the family's money and open a grocery store, and I don't have an idea in my heart. In total, it would be good if we opened a shop that sold dim sum before, but I am afraid that it will be too fresh and there will be no customers......" Mrs. Qian chattered about the words of the family, and the main meaning was only two, one was to continue to take root near Shili Town, and the other was that I couldn't think about what kind of shop to open.
"Sister-in-law, it's still early in the day. If my eldest brother is okay at home, can you help me invite him over? I've got something for you to see! Cui'er listened to Mrs. Qian's words, knowing that their courage had not been lost, but they couldn't find the direction, and she was a little eager to tell her plan.
"Good. I'm going to call you big brother! Mrs. Qian has inexplicable trust and admiration for Cui'er, a little woman, but she only thinks that Cui'er is not very old, but her shrewdness and insight are incomparable.
"Qingshan, I told you about the plan to open a shop before, I want Brother Qian to get involved, so that we don't have to worry about the shop, they also have a livelihood, so they won't be too sad, what do you think?" Cui'er looked at Lian Qingshan and asked what he meant.
"It's naturally good to be like this, Brother Qian and Sister-in-law Qian have a good relationship with us, I don't know how to take care of the shop, you are about to give birth, if it is too hard to take care of the children while taking care of the shop, it is just right to have them in partnership!" Lian Qingshan stretched out his hand and squeezed Cui'er's hand, and said with a smile at her, the trust and connivance in his tone made Cui'er's heart warm.
"Qingshan, you are so good......" To be so indulged by Lian Qingshan, Cui'er only felt that she was too happy, she gently stroked her stomach and smiled, and then as if she remembered something, she took out the good tea that was hidden in the depths of the cabinet and made last year.
Last summer, there were four kinds of tea leaves made by Cui'er, including fresh and green green tea, straight and thick green strip green tea, warm black tea with slight redness, and small black tea fermented and solid.
Under the influence of Cui'er's selfishness, only the straight and thick green strip of green tea was sent to the money shopkeeper to sell, and the other three kinds of tea were all sealed in wicker cans after they were done, and they were wrapped in paper and put into the depths of the cabinet.
"Aoyama, let's go to the kettle for hot water." After Cui'er turned the tea leaves, she couldn't wait to open the package to check the color of the tea inside, and saw that the tea was well preserved, and the taste was not lost much, so she soothed her brows and smiled slightly.
"I heard that my sister came to me, what's the matter!" When Cui'er was looking at the tea, the door curtain was lifted, and the money shopkeeper walked in from outside. The money shopkeeper had a smile on his face when he spoke, but the emaciation of his face and the blue and black under his eyes could not deceive people, and the money shopkeeper did not have a good time this year.
"Big brother, come and see what this is!" Cui'er didn't mention the fact that the money shopkeeper was depressed, because Cui'er knew that as long as she moved him today, he would not have a low time in the next few years.
"This is ......" The shopkeeper Qian walked to the table where Cui'er was with some interest, and his eyes widened in surprise when he saw the tea leaves with different colors and aromas on the table.
"This ...... This ...... "Although the money shopkeeper is just a grocery store shopkeeper, he is very fond of drinking tea, although he does not know much about tea making, but he has some insight into drinking tea," this ...... This is a single-bud white tea, the fluff on the bud surface is clearly visible, and it is obviously the best grade! ”
"This ...... The reddish tea leaves, which I have never seen before, smell fragrant, some smoky, and some fruity...... This black lump is also tea? What kind of tea is it? The shopkeeper looked at the four kinds of tea on the table one by one, in addition to the cui tea that Cui'er sold to herself in large quantities, the other three were also very good, this kind of recognition made the money shopkeeper's heart beat violently.
At the beginning, he operated a kind of green tea, and he could become famous in the Qian family's grocery store and become a thorn in the side of the master's son, and now if he has these four kinds of tea...... The money shopkeeper kept rubbing his palms, only to feel that his heart was hot.
"Cui'er...... This ......" When the money shopkeeper was still about to say something, Lian Qingshan came into the house with boiled water and teacups scalded by boiling water.
"Big brother, don't say anything else, let's have tea." Cui'er looked at the money shopkeeper who suddenly became energetic, and said with a smile.
Cui'er first put the white tea that resembled Baihao silver needles into the teacup one by one, brewed it with boiling water, and watched the silver-white tea leaves suspended on the surface slowly rise and fall with the water, and finally some of them were suspended in the cup, like silver needles standing upright, and the eyes of the money shopkeeper became brighter and brighter.
"Brother Qian, let's drink tea!" The smile on Cui'er's face remained the same, but the grasp of the money shopkeeper's cooperation with herself in her heart increased by another point.
The money shopkeeper stretched out his hand and took the teacup in his hand, but he was burned all over his body because he was too anxious, "Sister, don't you say anything else, are you making these four teas?" If you make it, you will hand over the tea to the eldest brother when it is sold in the future, and you have the final say on how to sell it and how to divide the money. ”
The money shopkeeper couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, clasped his trembling hands in his sleeves, and said to Cui'er, looking quite anxious, as if Cui'er would give the right to sell this good tea to others.
In fact, I don't blame the money shopkeeper for being too anxious, he was kicked out of the Qian family like a lost dog, and now he sees a goods that can make a fortune and can suppress the Qian family, where can he not be excited?
"Big brother said this, it's a foreign thing, I took this thing out, naturally I didn't want to hide it." Cui'er put away the smile on her face and said solemnly, "Don't hide it from my eldest brother, these teas are fried by me, and the raw materials are all from the nearby mountains, I want to talk to my eldest brother about a business, if this business is completed, the Qian family in Bishui Town will definitely not be your opponent!" ”
"Sister, you say, as long as you can use the eldest brother, the eldest brother will never give up!" The money shopkeeper was poked at the pain point in his heart, and said with determination.
"Okay, big brother, let's ...... like this in the future" Cui'er and Lian Qingshan, together with the money shopkeeper, sat at the kang table together, and talked carefully about the development path that Cui'er had pondered for a long time to focus on tea and jointly operate tea, refreshments, and tea food.
Cui'er is responsible for providing the main idea, the rest of the details and refinement, everyone brainstorms together to supplement, and when the lights are in hand, when the children are hungry to find their mother, everyone will complete the preliminary plan.
After the plan was formulated, Cui'er straightened her waist and breathed a long sigh of relief, and smiled at Lian Qingshan, only thinking that if she followed this path, within three years, she would be able to have ten thousand two family fortunes.
