Jiang Han, who was knocked on, walked out of the house angrily.

When I walked to the courtyard, I remembered that the purpose of my home today was to talk to my father about tea......

She didn't want to go back to disturb the master and apprentice, so she had to go to Yun Niang. This is an eldest lady, the quality of life is much higher than that of his father, who runs the rivers and lakes, and the tea ceremony or something is the basic skill of the ancient ladies.

Entering the main room of the West Wing, I saw that Yun Niang had come back from Liu's house next door, there were some pieces of cloth and paper piled up on the table, and there were two round hoops of different sizes.

Yun Niang's main house in the west wing is similar to her east wing, with a large room divided into a front and back room, and a slightly smaller back room used as a bedroom. The front room is slightly larger, about a dozen square meters, with cages and wooden tables.

Seeing her come in, Yun Niang showed a bright smile, got up and pulled her to the table, and said excitedly: "Sister, you see, Aunt Liu not only brought me back the fabric, but also gave me so many tricks. You can also help me take a look, let's pick the best one to embroider first. ”

Jiang Han picked up a few pieces of paper she handed over, and found that the flowers and plants painted on them were quite beautiful, but there were many that she couldn't recognize: "We don't have embroidery tools at home, but there are two needles, and the thread is only black line." ”

"I have all of these, and Aunt Liu also gave me two embroidered bandages." She stroked a few pieces of paper from the table, picked out a handful of thread in her left hand, and held the two hoops in her right hand, showing her happily.

Then he pushed a few pieces of paper in front of her: "These are the ones that Xiao An and I just selected, what does my sister think?" Sister, pick a few for me, I'll draw it out tonight. ”

Jiang Han was infected by her excitement, and compared those patterns seriously, and asked in his mouth: "Did the eldest lady say that these things are embroidered, how much is a piece?" ”

"It's not like that, it depends on whether the embroidery is a handkerchief, purse, fan cover, or a slightly larger screen, and it depends on how the finished product is embroidered. The aunt said that in the embroidery shop in Luoxia Town, the handkerchief embroidered in general is five yuan, and the good one is seven and eight yuan. Purses and fan covers are more expensive, a purse embroidered in general has eight yuan, better ones at least ten yuan, fan covers are more expensive. The screen is the most expensive, but the material requirements are also higher, I am going to embroider some handkerchiefs and purses for Aunt Liu to see first. ”

"How many days can you embroider a handkerchief or a purse?"

"In the past, when I was fine at home, I embroidered up to three handkerchiefs a day, but they were all simple colors. You can make one in a day with a simple purse pattern, and it may take at least two days to make a complex one. ”

"Even if you embroider two handkerchiefs a day, at worst, you will have 300 wen a month, which is the same as my monthly money in the teahouse - wow, you will be the pillar of our family in the future!"

"Sister Yue, isn't that how the 'pillars' are used......" Xiao An Youyou, who had been silent, said quietly.

"It doesn't matter, anyway, your sister will make more money in this family in the future, and the most important thing in our family now is to make money!" Jiang Han reached out and rubbed his face with a smile, then the corners of his mouth curved, and he said, "However, if I can get the reward money from the guests from tomorrow, it should be more than three hundred wen per month." ”

"Are the guests of the Lilai Teahouse generous?" Xiao An frowned and broke her hand, took a step back to keep a safe distance from her, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"I don't know, I haven't seen a bounty until now. However, there are many foreign merchants who come to drink tea every day, and Song Douyan should have earned a lot today, and when he secretly stuffed money into his waist, he was seen by me. Then she pursed her lips again and said disdainfully, "I suggested that he cooperate with me, so that the work is easier and he can get more money, he doesn't understand at all." ”

"Why do you get a lot of money? If he cooperates with you, he will also give you a piece of the pie. Xiao An didn't understand either.

"Oh, the cooperation between two people is faster and more in place, the service is good, the guest is in a good mood, and the mood is good, and the shot is generous! Do you understand? ”

"I don't understand, even if you're in a good mood and generous, it may not be doubled, right?"

"Heck, sometimes you can't double it, sometimes it may be more than double, on average. Besides, the guests are in a good mood and can order more refreshments, so that the mood of the shopkeeper Wang is also good, and the shopkeeper Wang is in a good mood, so he can give us a monthly money......" Jiang Han saw Xiao An blinking his eyes, and his little face became even more confused, so he had to throw out a sentence in annoyance: "I told you that you don't understand, you can think about it yourself!" ”

Yun Niang, who was sitting on the side and was still comparing tricks, saw Jiang Han's annoyed look, and laughed out loud, thinking to herself, Sister Yue, isn't this just a big cake for Song Douyan, such an unclever fool, she doesn't believe it, let alone Song Douyan.

Jiang Han was completely depressed by the appearance of the sister and brother.

Fortunately, she still remembered the main purpose of coming to Yun Niang, cleared her throat, and immediately changed the topic: "I came to you mainly to ask you to tell me about tea, I usually only drink plain water, even if I occasionally drink a few bowls of tea outside, I can't figure out what kind of tea I drink." I only know three kinds of tea sold in Lilai Teahouse, or Song Douyan blamed me for taking it wrong, so I compared what he took and wrote it down. ”

"Why is this Song Douyan so hateful! The other people in the teahouse, don't you go and ask them to teach you? ”

“…… I really didn't ask anyone else...... The shopkeeper Wang has been seeing the beginning and not the end of the dragon for the past few days, and Mr. Xu has said a word to me on the third day today. ”

Yun Niang suddenly wondered what kind of teahouse this Lilai teahouse was, and how could such a shopkeeper and his buddies make money?

"I don't know much about tea, but I still know a little about it."

After saying this, her eyes gradually straightened, and she remembered the scene when the family was there before.

"When I used to be at home, my dad liked to drink tea. When it rains, if he doesn't go out, he likes to spread a mat in the backyard pavilion, set up a low table tea set, and listen to the rain while drinking tea...... When the mood comes, I will put a pen and paper on the pen and draw a few strokes...... If Xiao An didn't go to school, he liked to sit next to his father and watch him draw, and sometimes read to his father...... My mother and I would make their favorite pastries, bring them over, and then the family would drink tea together and review Daddy's paintings......"

With her leisurely words, the atmosphere in the room became more and more depressed, and if she continued to talk about it, I was afraid that the sisters and brothers would have to hug their heads and cry again, Jiang Han hurriedly interrupted her: "Then what kind of tea do you know?" What kind of tea do you usually drink? What's so important? ”

Yun Niang wiped away the tears that had fallen from her cheeks with some surprise, and replied: "My family is mainly black tea, my father has a bad stomach, black tea is better than green tea, the soup is red and bright, the bottom of the leaves is slightly darker, but the spleen is more gentle and stomach-nourishing." The tea sold in the teahouse outside should be mainly green tea. ”

"Let's talk about green tea, what are them, and what are the differences?"

Jiang Han didn't want to know so much, as long as he could deal with the affairs of the teahouse. She thought very simply, anyway, a small teahouse like Lilai Teahouse would not sell any too special tea, it must be common on the market. She just wants to learn some information from Yun Niang, which will always have some directional effect on her tomorrow.

"There are many kinds of green tea, the famous ones are Longjing in Zhejiang, Biluochun in Suzhou, Maojian in Xinyang, and Lu'an Gua Pian, which are the best in green tea, and each one is divided into different grades......"

"Xinyang hairy tip? Isn't Guzhang Maojian famous? ”

"Guzhang Maojian is also famous, but the fame is among several Taoist mansions near us, and the high-grade Xinyang Maojian is to pay tribute to the imperial court."

How far does that have to go? Besides, it's useless for her to remember these tributes.

"Then put these aside first, and tell me about what you know first, our few mansions are more famous and common." Jiang Han hurriedly limited the scope.

"We've got a famous ...... in our neighborhood That includes the Guzhang Maojian you just mentioned, as well as the Jade Emperor Silver Peak, the peak clouds, and the Yuntai pine needles. ”

"What's so special about them?" Jiang Han thought for a moment and then added, "It's best to have an appearance feature - needless to say, the tip of the hair." ”

"The characteristics of the Jade Emperor Silver Peak, strip-shaped, slightly curly, fluffy, long-lasting aroma, and the color of the bubble is emerald green...... The peak clouds and mist are, the tip of the leaf is long, the tip is facing upwards when soaking, the leaf petals stretch and the color is bright green and can sink to the bottom of the water, the tea fragrance is rich and sweet, refreshing people's spleen...... And the gimbal pine needles ......"

"Stop! You're a little dizzy about you, so it's better to write it for me. In this way, you can write down the tea you know, whether it's black or green, and I'll study it myself. ”

Dropping this sentence, she hurriedly went out to find a pen and paper.
