The two came to a restaurant, the restaurant from the outside, the building is tall, there are four floors, all of them are made of ebony, the overall black building sits on the side of the street, it looks atmospheric and introverted, very temperamental, and it is a high-end restaurant at a glance.

At the entrance of the gate, there are two small servants standing at the door, smiling faces to greet every customer. Looking inside from the door, the inside is overcrowded, the restaurant business is booming, and the sound of diners talking and drinking is endless, which is very lively.

Tao Qian and Chen Wan'er walked side by side towards the gate, and the two little guys immediately greeted them with a smile, and said with a smile in their mouths: "Hello guest officer, good guest officer, are you two or how many?" ”

Chen Wan'er said: "Two of you, find a private room by the window and serve some special dishes." As he spoke, he handed over a piece of Baijiao.

When the little guy saw it, his eyes immediately lit up, and his mouth smiled even more, so he hurriedly took it and entertained him more warmly, shouting in his mouth: "Okay! Two distinguished guests, sit in the Spring and Autumn Pavilion on the third floor! Then he got out of the way, made a gesture with his hand, led inside, and said in his mouth: "Guest officer, please two of you, I'll take you two to a seat!" ”

Saying that he walked in front and led the way, the face of another little guy on the side was full of regret and envy, only hating that he had just fallen behind, and he had not been able to grab the front, otherwise this hundred quilts would be his own, thinking that his face was full of distress, but he had not felt sorry for himself for a long time, and hurriedly put on a smiling face to greet a gorgeously dressed person, who thought that the person threw out three hundred quilt rewards, and suddenly forgot the back of his mind if he was not happy, and smiled more cheerfully than the little guy just now, and the hospitality was more enthusiastic.

On the other side, Tao Qian and Chen Wan'er, under the leadership of the little maid, came to a private room by the window on the third floor, the bamboo door on the opposite side, the wall next to the door is also made of ebony, and there are two windows on the wall, but they are only carved with carved lines, which is not a window in the real sense.

The little guy stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Guest officer, the private room of the two of you has arrived, please come in and sit down!" As he spoke, he opened the door, and a fragrant and elegant scene came into view.

I saw that the space in the private room is spacious, as soon as the door is opened, there is a real window, you can clearly see the flow of people from the window, the center of the room is a set of wooden tables and chairs, a table is surrounded by five round chairs, there is a tea set on the table, and there is an incense burner, the incense burner is full of sandalwood smoke, and the whole room is filled with a fragrance.

Look at the left and right, the green gauze tent, the cloud Luo embroidered curtain, the two floor lights, at this time is still extinguished, there are several calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall of the private room, one painting is "the white tiger comes down the mountain, a roaring town mountain forest." There is also a painting of "the sky and white cranes surround the clouds, and a cypress pine stands on the top of the mountain." There is another pair of words, which reads "The spring show is glowing, and the autumn is to the twilight of the sun." ”。 The whole private room is full of grace and bookishness.

Tao Qian and Chen Wan'er sat down together, so they opened their mouths and said to the little guy: "Give us a pot of good tea first, and then order to make some special dishes from Shanglin." As he spoke, Tao Qian also took out a hundred silk and handed it over, and the little guy took it with a smile, bowed his head, and bent down in response: "Guest officer, please wait for you!" After speaking, he carried the teapot on the table out of the private room, and helped take it to the room by the way.

Tao Qian leaned against the window, looked down, only to see Shede Street, the flow of people is endless, crowded, the whole street is full of vitality, the scene of all things competing, lively and extraordinary, all kinds of shouting, shouting, bargaining, shouting, exchanging business sounds, endlessly.

Tao Qian only felt that looking down from the window of the three-story building, it was completely different from the feeling of being in the street, being in the street, he only felt that he was an ordinary being in the red dust, and at this moment, he was condescending, and he felt like a spectator outside the world, seeing all the changes in the world.

Chen Wan'er saw that Tao Qian's heart was feeling, and couldn't help but say: "Brother Qian, it seems to have some understanding at the moment? ”

Tao Qian retracted his gaze, looked at Chen Wan'er and said, "Sister sees it?" I was condescending to watch the people on the street come and go, and I felt completely different from being in the middle of it just now. ”

Curiosity flashed in Chen Wan'er's eyes and asked, "What did you feel?" Tell your sister about it. ”

Tao Qian said with a smile: "Being in the middle of Shede Street, it is like being in the red dust, I am a hurried passerby, I have met countless strangers, and I have passed by countless destined people, and I have some regrets and sorrows in my heart. After a pause, Tao Qian looked out the window, and then said: "At this moment, I am in a high place, and I only feel that the vision in front of me is just a corner of the red dust, and the fragments of the world pass in front of me, but I don't go to my heart, as if everything is established, everything is indifferent, and I feel that I am not happy with things, and I am not sad about myself." ”

Chen Wan'er listened carefully, and then said: "Brother Qian'er has a good understanding, the angle is different, and the world he sees is also different. What we persistently pursue is because we are deep in the red dust, and what we no longer cherish is because we jumped out of the red dust. ”

Chen Wan'er also looked out of the window at this time, and then said: "Each of us is honing in the red dust, and then hoping to jump out of the red dust, no longer trapped by love, hurt by love, and burdened by love, but we may not be able to reach the desired state in our lifetime, we can only sink in the red dust, suffer from difficulties again and again, accept trauma, and finally enter reincarnation with all our memories, hoping to get out of the red dust in the next life." ”

Tao Qian also said out loud: "Yes, my sister is right, each of us is like a grasshopper, struggling desperately in the grass called Hongchen, just to see the outside world. ”

Chen Wan'er laughed at this time: "But this is life, isn't it?" What we pursue is transcendence, but we can never reach this realm, but we do not choose to sink, but do our best to feel the joys, sorrows, and sorrows brought by life, isn't this the meaning of life? ”

Tao Qian's eyes lit up and said, "Sister is right! What we are pursuing is not what we must get, but because of the goal, we can set foot on the road and see the various scenery of life, I almost fell into sadness, thank you sister for waking up! ”

Chen Wan'er waved her hand and said, "I'm just saying how I feel, in the final analysis, my brother is the first to have an understanding, I just borrowed the Buddha to offer flowers." ”

At this time, the door was opened, the little guy came in with a plate, there was a small basin in the plate, there was clear water in the basin, a porcelain pot, a bowl of tea, a pot of boiling water, the little guy put things on the table, bowed his head and said: "Two distinguished guests, this is the best tea in our restaurant, it is the 'Wushan Cloud Rain' produced by the 'Wushan' in the south of Shanglin, this tea brews out of the fragrance and pleasant, refreshing and refreshing, the tea leaves float in the middle of the water like clouds and mist in the water, and from time to time fall the slightest crumbs, as if it rains in general, so it is named 'Wushan Cloud Rain'." ”

After speaking, the little girl picked up the teacup, put it next to Tao Qian and Chen Wan'er, and started a whole set of processes. First of all, "clean your hands", wash your hands carefully, and then pour boiling water into the teacup, this step is called "ironing", then "please tea", put the tea leaves into the teapot, the fourth step is "wash the tea", pour the boiling water in, and after rapid contact with the tea, pour out the tea, this step is to clean the impurities on the surface of the tea.

Then comes the formal brewing of tea, in which the spout is "nodd" three times in the process of pouring boiling water, which is the so-called "three nods" and is meant to pay homage to the guests. After that, there is "whisk cover", which means that when making tea, the boiling water should be a little higher than the spout of the pot, and then the lid of the pot should be used to brush off the tea foam floating on it, so as to prevent guests from drinking the floating tea foam when drinking tea.

Then the process of "sealing the pot", "dividing the cup", "returning the pot", "dividing the tea" and "serving the tea" came down, and it was time for Tao Qian, and the little guy slowly retreated and went to the kitchen to urge the dishes.

Chen Wan'er taught Tao Qian to "smell the fragrance" first, and then "taste the tea", the tea soup entered the mouth, and immediately a fragrance spread, with a touch of bitterness, but it was not difficult to drink, but after swallowing it, it returned to a faint sweetness, and after drinking, I only felt that the whole person was sublimated.

Tao Qian put down the cup and exclaimed, "Good tea!" It's really a soul-snatching incense, and it's sweet to hook the gods! ”

Chen Wan'er took a sip of tea, nodded her head, and said in admiration: "It is indeed good tea!" ”

So the two of them continued to taste the fragrant tea in the cup on the scenery outside the window, and the fragrance of tea flew out of the window and drifted into the distant sky, and even the birds seemed to be hooked away by this fragrance, and flew upside down.

A pot of tea quickly bottomed out, and just as the little servant pushed open the door and came in, holding a large plate with several dishes on it.

The servant came to the table, gently put down the plate, took out the dishes one by one, put them on the table, then removed the plate, stood aside, and introduced the dishes.
