Chapter 453: Good Mirror

It's just that black tea is okay, and he is honest and serious, but he is not very smart, and Xie Yixiao has to make up his own mind about many things.

Mingjing thought to himself, first bring the black tea to serve, and then pay attention to it, choose a smart and capable one, and wait for Mingxin to get married, and then bring people up.

Xie Yixiao and others personally sent Mingjing to the small courtyard where they lived, and also met the girls living in the courtyard, and there are six girls living here now.

At this moment, sitting on a long table in the courtyard, there is a woman in her thirties dressed simply and elegantly who is teaching everyone the art of making tea and the rules of etiquette.

Tea has always been exquisite, there are sencha, tea, tea, but nowadays people's favorite is to drink tea, when making tea, you need to pay attention to the selection of water, time, temperature, these types of tea are different, need to understand, so you also have to know the origin of various teas, what are the advantages and differences.

In addition, there is also the sitting posture, the action of making tea, how much tea should be poured appropriately, and how to groom......

In short, making tea is not something that can be brewed casually, that is, no matter how good the tea is, if you can't make this tea, it will be a waste.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the group turned their heads to look, just in time to see Mingjing and Xie Yixiao walking in, followed by Mingxin and Qingluo.

Several girls were recruited by Spiegel, and the lady who taught her to make tea was also specially invited by Spiegel, so everyone only recognized Spiegel, and did not recognize the rest.

"Good stewardship."

After Spiegel decided to leave, Xie Yixiao gave her the deed of sale and asked her to go to the government office for a while, and then tore it up, and from then on she was a good citizen.

However, Mingjing didn't want to use the name Lu Xueyuan, her mother's surname was Shan, so she changed her mother's surname and called Shanmingjing, this name sounds a bit Zen and elegant, Xie Yixiao also thinks this name is good.

Spiegel nodded, and then introduced: "This is my girl, and she is also the owner of Yunhe Tower, you have come to see it." ”

Then the girls came and saluted, and they were dignified and polite, and they could not find anything wrong, and they would not look up curiously or look left and right.

To be a tea doctor, most of the entertainers are nobles from the family, and the most important thing for these people is to be curious, to be a transparent person quietly and in a proper manner, not to listen or to look.

Ming Spiegel introduced and said: "This is Mrs. Sun, I invited you to teach you to make tea." It took some effort for Spiegel to invite people here, and she originally wanted to hire them directly, but unfortunately they didn't agree, so she only agreed to help teach them for a few months.

"Sun Niangzi." Xie Yixiao nodded, and glanced at Mingjing approvingly, it is indeed time to teach and teach well, Xie Yixiao originally wanted to arrange this today, but she didn't expect Mingjing to move faster than her.

"The owner."

Xie Yi smiled: "Everyone doesn't need to be formal, sit down, you have been studying for a few days, but what have you learned?" ”

A girl brought a chair for her to sit down, and Mrs. Sun said: "This is the third day, I first taught them the tea ceremony posture, and after three months, it will be almost over, and the rest of the things need time to accumulate." ”

Sun Niangzi asked people to bring hot water and tea sets, and personally made tea for Xie Yixiao and Mingjing, Xie Yixiao saw that her gestures were beautiful, her movements were smooth, and she had a slight bottom in her heart, this Sun Niangzi did have several brushes.

There is no good tea in this yard, but the ordinary tea has passed through her hands, and it also brews an excellent taste, the tea soup is clear, the fragrance is far away, and the temperature is just right when the tea is entered.

Mingjing drank tea and asked again: "Sun Niangzi really doesn't want to stay in our Yunhe Tower?" ”

Sun Niangzi shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness." ”

Ming Spiegel only felt a pity, and asked such a sentence, but seeing that Sun Niangzi insisted, he didn't ask again.

After drinking tea, Xie Yixiao and the other four went to the small cross-courtyard next door to pack up all the things that Mingjing had moved.

Although Spiegel has saved a lot of money over the years, everything she uses on weekdays is prepared by the Xie family, and all she can take away is her money and silver jewelry, as well as some of her own clothes, as well as the bedding she slept on in the past.

There are two rooms in the courtyard, one used as her bedroom, and the other can be used as a bright hall to receive occasional guests.

As for eating and washing on weekdays, there was food in Yunhe Tower, and you can eat there and come back on weekdays, and there is also a room for boiling water and bathing in the main courtyard.

However, it is still necessary to add two small stoves and small pots, and it is convenient to cook some food in the house once in a while.

After the small courtyard was renovated and added, there were tables, chairs, bed frames, cabinets and other things in the house, along with the doors to enter and exit the yard, and there was a lock on it, and a few potted plants were also moved to the small courtyard, which looked like it.

"Not bad." Xie Yi smiled and said with a smile, if Spiegel lived alone, she would definitely not be at ease, after all, outside, Spiegel was a weak woman, but she didn't want Spiegel to squeeze with others, but it was just right now.

There is no danger when you travel with companions on weekdays, and the places where you live are separated, so there is less friction and it is much quieter.

Mingjing poured the scrubbed water on the side of a small tree in the courtyard, took out a handkerchief and wiped his sweat, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "It's really not bad." ”

Yes, yes, but she prefers to stay in the Xie family, stay by Xie Yixiao's side, Mrs. Lu's trouble, so that she has to leave the Xie family, which really makes her feel annoyed.

"Let's go to the Cloud Crane Tower."

"Okay."

So the group went out again, got into the carriage and went to the Yunhe Tower, which was not far from the Yunhe Tower, and in less than a tea time, the carriage stopped in front of the Yunhe Tower.

A small servant in the building came to help lead the horse to the place where the carriage was placed, and the group had just arrived on the third floor of the teahouse, ordered some tea and snacks, and the king steward came.

Because everything is still being prepared, everything is still business as usual in Yunhe Tower.

"I've seen Miss Xie."

"Sit down." Xie Yixiao asked him to sit down, and then asked him, "How did you do before?" ”

Steward Wang said: "The window matter is being done, this matter is going well, the pavilion behind the teahouse is also being repaired, and the chef has found a few, but there is only one person who is willing to do things here, and the matter of the chief steward is a little difficult." ”

There are many shops in the imperial city, most of them are the shops of these powerful families, and there are countless stewards, but there are indeed not many people who can be a big teahouse steward, and many of them are now in charge.

Xie Yi said with a smile: "Continue to look for the things of the big steward, I have some ideas on the chef's side, you can see if there are any chefs who cook dishes in various places, it doesn't need to be too good, just do it well." ”
