Chapter 679 Morning Tea
Chapter 680 Morning Tea
Jack couldn't help being very surprised: "What can I do to let my second uncle treat me to morning tea."

Tang Jiankai laughed loudly and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry about this, it's definitely not because of your face!"

The yacht docked, everyone boarded the car, and Tang Jiankai drove to the teahouse.

Entering the teahouse, I saw Uncle Liang eating tea and porridge, while Tang Shaoji was sitting on the side reading a newspaper with glasses.

The great people in Hong Kong are sitting next to each other right now. Li Junge hurriedly brought A Yin to greet him: "Morning, Second Uncle, good morning, Uncle Liang."

Jack also stepped forward: "Morning, second uncle."

Uncle Liang stood up and wiped his mouth with a tissue: "Second Uncle, talk slowly, I'll wait downstairs."

Li Junge also instinctively said: "Uncle Liang, please eat more, don't worry..."

Uncle Liang smiled and waved to Li Junge, and went on his own.

Seeing the cloth shoes on Uncle Liang's feet, Li Junge smiled at Tang Shaoji, "The Tang family really cares about others."

Tang Shaoji seemed to find out a child's carefully hidden easter eggs. He laughed all of a sudden, folded the newspaper, took off his glasses and put them in the box, and said to everyone: "Sit, sit, Jack, but it's been a long time seen."

Jack was flattered: "Recently, I have been busy operating a few technology stocks, so I lost my greetings. If my second uncle wants to see me, I will come every day for you to educate me about a word."

Tang Shaoji smiled and said: "Not so lucky, you come to greet me for a week, and your narrow-minded father will send you to an overseas company immediately!"

Jack smirked and said, "Where is it, my father still admires my second uncle very much..."

Tang Shaoji smiled indifferently, and greeted the waiter: "Fusheng."

Fu Sheng hurried up: "Second Uncle, are you still the same?"

Tang Shaoji said: "It's all children today, oh, this Piwa must have a big belly, look at it and get a few more."

Fu Sheng said: "Today's prawns are good, so let's add another shrimp dumpling, a glutinous rice chicken, and girls add a snow clam egg tart and a quicksand bun."

Tang Shaoji said, "It's up to you to decide."

After Fusheng left, Tang Shaoji explained to Li Junge: "Fuchangzhai has a big rule, no one will reserve a table, and if you want to drink their morning tea, you have to occupy a seat first. The old people feel less, and usually the old people come first. Then everyone came back after getting up to freshen up, and everyone ate and chatted, and the whole morning passed. Piwa, do you drink Pu'er or Tieguanyin?"

Li Junge asked: "Second uncle, are you sleeping well? Will drinking tea affect you?"

Tang Shaoji said: "I didn't dare before, but now it doesn't affect it. Your cinnamon is very effective. This is the real longan!"

Li Junge said with a smile: "My family's longan still lacks a name, so I would like to thank my second uncle for giving it the name."

Tang Shaoji was amused: "I heard from Jiankai that he made a good friend and is a wonderful person. Now it seems that it is true!"

Seeing that Tang Shaoji was about to do it himself, Li Junge said quickly: "I'll do it, or we should drink Pu'er. This tea is somewhat similar to the Tuo tea that people in Shuzhou often drink."

Seeing that Tang Shaoji had no objection, Li Junge put the tea into the purple sand pot, and picked up the kettle that had been burning from one side to add water.

Tang Shaoji watched Li Junge skillfully wash the tea, scald the cup, pour the pot, and mix the tea. He nodded and said, "You know the tea ceremony in Guangdong?"

Li Junge said with a smile: "I'm afraid Kung Fu tea has been spread to HLJ now, right? I wouldn't know it. There is an elder in the group who likes this way. I learned a trick and a half from him. This teapot from Fuchangzhai is really good." , thicken the pulp."

Tang Shaoji laughed loudly: "No, there are so many people who help them make pots every day, so they don't want to be thick. By the way, thank you for the tea set, inkstone, and red pearl tea you gave me. But I'm sorry for my clumsy eyes. , None of these three items can be seen to be made of any material."

Li Junge said: "The Songying tea set is a coal sander made by my grandfather. After we improved the traditional coal sander, it was designed by Xu Si, the director of Chuanmei Design. It is an innovation in the tradition. In fact, the material is roughly coal. The ashes are finely ground and fired, and then smoked with pine smoke."

"The red bead is the feces excreted by the larvae of the moth Wenxiang after eating white tea. It is a traditional specialty in our area. It is not well-known because the output is too low for local people to consume. It can be addicted to tea, but it does not contain stimulation. Theophylline of the nerves also has the effect of helping sleep and digestion."

"And the stone material of the inkstone is a kind of stone material I found in Lijiagou, a small stone, ah, Wang Qie named it Qingming Stone, and now it is recognized as the top inkstone material in the jade carving world, not worse than Duanshe."

Tang Shaoji asked: "Wang Qie named the stone you found?"

Li Junge said: "It's just a coincidence. As for the inference of the stone's nature, the processing method, and the function, it was determined by Uncle Shitou and Xiao Shitou. It would be shameless for me to seize the naming right. It is also a coincidence. , since the little stone has been named, and it’s good to get it, let’s use it.”

Tang Shaoji smiled and said, "You are an indisputable character."

At this time, dim sum began to be served, barbecued pork buns, radish cakes, siu mai, pineapple buns, chicken feet, pork knuckles, durian crisps... plus those added by Fusheng, there was always a table.

Li Junge hasn't eaten much since he had lunch at noon yesterday, and he went to drink with Jack when he boarded the boat.

A pork bun, "Ok!", a pineapple bun, "Okay!", a quicksand bun, "Okay!"

Ayin couldn't stand it any longer: "Hey! Erpi! Eat slowly!"

Tang Shaoji scooped up a bowl of raw fish porridge and drank it slowly. He watched Li Junge put the snacks into his mouth one by one with a smile, and said, "He is a hero who can eat and drink. He is a man of love and righteousness. Ah Yin, don't worry about it." He, by the way, where did you order your clothes? Liangzi didn't know the brand yesterday."

With a pig's hand in his mouth, Tang Jiankai muttered and explained: "Liangzi is Uncle Liang, my father and him are used to calling him that."

A Yin said: "The clothes, the coal sand ware mentioned earlier, the Qingming stone inkstone, and the two pairs of cloth shoes I gave you yesterday are all intangible cultural heritages we unearthed in Lijiagou. Grandma Pi Ta is the inheritor of this intangible cultural heritage. My clothes were designed by Li Hanqiu, a girl from our Lijiagou Academy of Fine Arts, based on female red elements, and my grandma made them for me."

Tang Shaoji nodded and said: "That's no wonder, can this dress be bought outside now?"

Ayin said: "The handmade models need to be customized, and the machine-made models are now sold on our e-commerce channel. Your cloth shoes are handmade by grandma."

Tang Shaoji said: "Oh, thank you grandma very much. This skill can no longer be found in Hong Kong. You really need to pay attention to it. There is still an inheritance in the mainland. It's not easy, it's not easy."

Ayin smiled and said: "Second Uncle, you are right. Many girls like this now. We have also launched stitch tutorials on the website, and there are also cut-out fabrics for sale online. Buy them home and learn the stitches in the video. It is very popular to be able to sew your own work.”

Tang Shaoji said: "Your clothes are not the traditional style of the Han nationality, and the lace pattern on the neckline is wrong."

Ayin said happily: "Second Uncle, you are really an expert! Grandma's cloth shoes are given to the right person! This lace is Miao style. There is a cliff in the back of Lijiagou, called Xuantian Cliff, and there is a village called Xuantian Village on the cliff. , there is a Miao community, and I am a Miao who grew up in that village."

Tang Jiankai interjected, "Grandma also gave me two pairs of insoles, and I was reluctant to put them on. I think it would be more appropriate to hang them with a frame."

A Yin said with a smile: "Grandma is very hardworking. When she didn't make clothes, she made at least a hundred pairs of insoles every year. Basically, every customer who came to the door would get two pairs."

Tang Shaoji said: "Well, yes! I went to Jiazhou with my grandfather and father when I was a child. The rural women there would have a dustpan beside them whenever the farming was off. Inside was needlework and cloth, and they would be female celebrities at any time."

A Yin said: "Yes, yes, grandma is like that, exactly what you said."

Tang Shaoji pointed at the voracious Li Junge: "Is there a well-educated elder in Piwa's family? He knows a lot about rules."

After speaking, he waved his hand again: "Of course I didn't mean now."

A Yin burst out laughing, and said: "Our village is relatively closed, with only access to waterways. The Li surname accounts for most of the village, and it is a big family. Erpi and the others have always passed on farming and studying, so there are more old rules in the village. , I’ve been working in the village for two years, and I still can’t remember some rules.”

"The elders you mentioned are indeed there. Li Junge's fourth grandfather is very knowledgeable and is now 96 years old. The fourth grandfather's son is Li Siyuan, a sinologist at the East Asian Institute of Columbia University. Erpi grew up with the fourth grandfather since he was a child. Anyway, I often can't understand the conversation between the three of them..."

Tang Shaoji said: "That's it. Only with the family background of this kind of big family, the baby can raise a generalist in Chinese studies from a young age. After graduating from a Chinese major in four years, he wants to become a talent? I'm afraid that a Pingshui rhyme has not been studied thoroughly. By the way, your place is so closed, what about the children's education?"

Ayin said: "The traffic problem has been solved now. Our group has two boats, and each boat runs three times a day. Wuxi No. [-] mainly picks up and drops off tourists, and Wuxi No. [-] mainly picks up and drops off villagers in the village. Suo, it's very convenient to get in and out now."

Tang Shaoji said: "Ayin, you are very organized. Are you in your group?"

Li Junge answered inexplicably as soon as his mouth was empty: "President Taishang."

Everyone at the table couldn't stop laughing, Ayin gave Li Junge a blank look, and said, "Second Uncle, don't listen to Erpi's nonsense, I am a college student village official who was assigned to Lijiagou Village the year before last, and I am in charge of the Lijiagou Village Committee. business."

Li Junge said: "Ayin is very capable. Lijiagou's success today is due to her persistence. We are here this time to open up the market for fine lychees in Lijiagou. We have basically negotiated with Heji."
