Chapter 286: Boiling Tea and Discussing Who is the Male (2)
Seeing Kou Zhun, Wang Qinruo, and Hua Feiyu coming, Shen Guhong and Mi Fang's hearts were fluttering, the key was how the tea was, they didn't have any bottom in their hearts. At this time, he just wants to be able to eat it, but the question is whether the tea brewed by their "dumpling method" can really be eaten?
Shen Guhong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, he was really weak at this time. Seeing this, Yunshang, who was standing on the side, was full of doubts and asked, "Brother Shen, are you very hot?"
It's the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it's hot. However, the construction of this hall in Xianyunju is very exquisite, and the ventilation is good, so it will not be hot. Shen Guhong nodded and said, "A little, it is estimated that it was caused by this charcoal fire!"
Seeing that Shen Guhong was like this, Mi Fang was even more panicked. At this time, Kou Zhun, Wang Qinruo, and Hua Feiyu had already picked up a cup of tea, and if they smelled it, the tea was very fragrant. Kou Zhun prefers strong tea, so he nodded first, while Wang Qinruo and Hua Feiyu were expressionless, and they couldn't see what they were thinking.
Kou Zhun had already begun to taste the tea, but he began to frown. Seeing this, Shen Guhong's heart was raised to his throat, and as for Mi Fang, he didn't have the courage to look at it, so he just lowered his head and looked at the tea set and tea leaves on the table.
Then Wang Qinruo and Hua Feiyu were also drinking tea, they were different from Kou Zhun's frowns, and both of them showed puzzled looks. It turns out that this tea tasting is not to taste good or not, it is necessary to distinguish the variety of tea and the water used, which is "Ming Tea", homophonic Mingcha, extremely clear meaning.
In the tea ceremony, people can say what kind of tea is used to make it, what kind of water is used to boil it, and how long it will be boiled. But Shen Guhong and Mi Fang don't know tea, and naturally they don't know how to cook tea.
If the tea is difficult to eat, then there is no need to distinguish anything, but Shen Guhong mistakenly bumped into it, many of the steps of boiling tea are quite correct, and the tea soup is not only very fragrant, but also the well water, stream water and other water that are evenly mixed during it have been fused with each other, as he said, they have played their own strengths, and the tea boiled out naturally has a unique flavor, but it is difficult to distinguish it.
"What do you think?" Hua Feiyu really couldn't tell how he was, and when he saw that Kou Zhun was pondering, he asked.
"The fragrance of this tea soup is already very strong, but the most rare thing is that the fragrance hidden in the tea soup is even better. Kou Zhun said.
Shen Guhong muttered in his heart: "Of course, I have finished all those dumpling-like tea leaves, and they are boiled with lids, so it is strange that the tea brewed with a little water is not strong!"
After Kou Zhun paused, he continued: "The tea has a bitter taste in the mouth, but once it is in the throat, there is still a fragrance. The most rare thing is that kind of sweet taste, which can make the tip of the tongue with relish, and the aftertaste is endless, yes, it is the aftertaste!"
Shen Guhong smiled secretly, and said in his heart: "Of course, such a strong tea, after drinking it, the remnants stick to your tongue, and it will be difficult for you to be born at that time!"
Hua Feiyu nodded and said: "Xiangye said these non-words all feel the same, and the tea can barely be distinguished, but with this water, non-words can't be distinguished!"
Shen Guhong said in his heart: "My intake of these kinds of water is basically the same, if you can drink the difference, it will be a strange thing, but even if the amount of water is different, I can't drink it, you people have some skills, but when you meet me, does that set still work?"
"Yes, the well water is immersion water, there will be some muddy taste, the stream water is rushing water, it will be a little more sweet, and the river water is both, the water of this tea soup is very bland, you can't taste anything, it's really a strange thing!" Wang Qinruo said.
Shen Guhong thought: "So many tea leaves are put in it to boil, it is not water for a long time, and it will still have a light taste? This old man Wang is really inexplicable!"
Shen Guhong doesn't understand the tea ceremony, so he naturally doesn't understand the reason. Kou Zhun and Hua Feiyu both strongly agreed with Wang Qinruo's opinion. The three of them pondered for a long time, and finally they all sighed and shook their heads.
I can't even distinguish tea, so naturally I don't use it as poetry. Shen Guhong felt a little proud in his heart, of course, all to cover up his weakness.
Yun Sheng couldn't distinguish the tea made by Shen Guhong when she saw Hua Feiyu, and she glanced at Shen Guhong in surprise at the moment.
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed, and Kou Zhun, Hua Feiyu, and Wang Qinruo identified seven types of tea, each of which wrote seven poems, but this year it was said that there were only seven kinds of tea used to distinguish tea. Shen Guhong and Mi Fang never dreamed that they would dare to be on the list of the three best teas for making such a hodgepodge today, which simply made the two of them a little crying and laughing. However, the appearance of the master still has to be pretended, and both of them are sitting straight at this time. When the tea party was over, the two knew that today's play was over.
"I didn't see it, it turns out that the Divine Arrow Boy is also a master in the tea ceremony!" said Zhuang Mei'er, who was sitting on the side.
"Where! Where! The master of the Zhuang Pavilion has won the award!" Shen Guhong sat upright at this time, like a big man. Mi Fang, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but sneer when she saw this. Shen Guhong coughed dryly, stood up, and after greeting Hua Feiyu, he and Mi Fang went out of Xianyunju.
"It's finally out!" Mi Fang's heart was still pounding.
Shen Guhong smiled: "How about it, this tea party is interesting, right?"
Mi Fang pouted and said: "What a group of ghostly old men, what tea ceremony, what talents, all messed up!"
Shen Guhong said: "There are many things in this world that are like this, and it is easy for others to see through the routines, on the contrary, if you don't play cards according to the routine, you are imaginative and unusual, but it is impressive." In fact, I think that the tea we brewed today is as bad as horse urine, and the ranking will not be bad!"
Mi Fang smiled: "What you said is so ugly, what kind of horse urine is obviously dumpling tea." By the way, how can you be sure that you are not in a low ranking?"
Shen Guhong smiled: "Because they can't tell." In fact, this truth is extremely simple, things that you don't understand, things that reveal a sense of mystery, it seems that they have always had a higher status!"
"I understand, that's why so many people pretend to be profound!" Mi Fang hugged Shen Guhong's arm with both hands as she spoke, and the two walked around the street for a while before returning to Kou Mansion.
When they entered the courtyard where they lived, they saw that Kou Zhun was also in the courtyard, which made the two of them puzzled, and in normal times, Kou Zhun would not usually come here.
"I'm back, good boy, I didn't expect to have a hand in making tea!" Kou Zhun praised.
Shen Guhong was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and immediately asked, "My lord, do you have anything important?"
After all, Shen Guhong promised Kou Zhun to investigate the case, but he didn't investigate the case and went to participate in the tea party of Xianyun Gongzi, and he was a little weak at the moment.
Kou Zhun said: "I have the habit of drinking strong tea, and I came here today to ask how to make tea rich and fragrant, with an endless aftertaste!"
Shen Guhong was stunned when he heard this, smiled bitterly, and said, "My lord, you really look up to me." ”
Kou Zhun glanced at Shen Guhong, and scolded with a smile: "Boy, are you afraid that the old man will learn your craft?"
Shen Guhong sighed, but Mi Fang, who was standing next to him, couldn't help it and laughed directly. Shen Guhong said: "I definitely don't have the craftsmanship, as for the tea to be boiled stronger, wouldn't it be okay to put more tea leaves?"
Kou Zhun was also stunned when he heard this, and said: "The ratio of tea leaves to water is not well controlled, is the brewed tea still tea? No matter how much you put it, how can you hide the fragrance in the tea soup?"
Shen Guhong spread his hands and said: "I don't understand the principles of your tea cooking, anyway, today's tea soup is boiled like this, if you talk about craftsmanship, hehe, isn't this Mi Fang's 'cooking dumplings' Dafa?"
"Boiled dumplings? You treat boiling tea as boiling dumplings, and you brew such a strong tea?"
"Isn't that it?" said Shen Guhong.
"What kind of theory is this?" Kou Zhun was also confused.
Shen Guhong said: "I don't have as many big reasons as you, but you said that the fragrance in the tea soup is probably related to putting tea leaves in boiling water, you might as well try it when you go back." As for the tea ceremony, Mi Fang and I really don't know anything about it!"
Kou Zhun was also a little speechless, and he had to shake his head and smile bitterly at the moment. As soon as Kou Zhun left, Wen Yongjie came to visit again. Shen Guhong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't tell me about the tea ceremony, I don't know anything about it!"
Wen Yongjie smiled: "I'm here to ask for advice." ”
Shen Guhong said: "What did you find out?"
Wen Yongjie said: "I have already got the exact news from Xiao Er of the Title Inn, Lian Shijin's body is the shopkeeper of the Title Inn before moving to Jinxiu Building. ”
Shen Guhong said: "There is no secret to this point, what needs to be figured out now is why Lian Shijin went to Phoenix Lake!"
When Wen Yongjie heard this, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "It seems that you have already guessed that the corpse was made by the shopkeeper of the title inn!"
Shen Guhong smiled: "I just guessed, and I didn't find evidence, so the credit is still yours!"
Wen Yongjie smiled: "Then why don't you say that the murderer is the shopkeeper of the title inn?"
Shen Guhong said: "Even if it is Lian Shijin who is drunk, the old man who can be blown down by the wind of the title inn can't be killed." What's more, even Shi Jin died of severe poison, that kind of strange poison has never even seen you and me, how can he be an ordinary person who runs an inn in the capital?"
Wen Yongjie nodded and said, "Yes, that's right, but we still have to go to the Title Inn!"
Shen Guhong nodded with a serious expression and said, "He can move Lian Shijin's body from Phoenix Lake, proving that he should have been in Phoenix Lake at the time of the crime, he should be able to see something, as long as we ask clearly, this case will be solved!"
Wen Yongjie smiled: "This is exactly what the hero sees!"
Shen Guhong scolded with a smile and walked out of the Kou Mansion with Wen Yongjie.
