Chapter 20 Compliments
Suzhou Dongting Mountain has a long history of tea production and has been highly praised by tea drinkers of all generations. "The Book of Tea": "Dongting Mountain was born in Changzhou County, Suzhou".

Gong Zizhen once wrote: "Biluochun tea from Dongting Mountain is the best in the world."

Kangxi, the chief of the Tunguska Wild Boar Skin Tribe, named this tea "Biluochun" after tasting it.

After that, Biluochun paid tribute every year and became the imperial tea.

Lao Bao took a sip and found no taste, just like soaking the leaves of a tree.

Bao Guowei first looked at the color, then smelled it, took a sip, and closed his eyes to reflect.

The mouth looks like a bird, as if drinking grass soup. I am vulgar and don't know how to appreciate tea. It would be better to drink some chicken soup or milk with sugar.

Although this is what I think in my heart, I can't lose face.It happened that when I was buying tea a few days ago, I saw an advertisement on the jar at the tea seller's stall, which was written about Dongting Biluochun, and now I just used it to show off.

Because of his strong memory, Bao Guowei can still clearly remember what the poem is about.

"The fragrance is rich and fresh, refreshing the mind and relieving troubles. Liang Tongshu once wrote a poem: "This tea has been known to few people since the past, and the essence is not roasted in the fire. When picking the moth eyebrows on the fifteenth day, a touch of steamed green jade appears on the chest. The slender shirt does not hesitate to dry in the spring rain. , the cup is filled with the fragrance of milk flowers. 'Now that I taste it, I feel the same way. The ancients are sincere and I don't want to deceive them."

Lao Bao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, what is Emei?What breasts?How can there be Emei and Suzhou in this tea?

"Hmm! Great poem! Great poem!"

Mr. Qin was also fooled. He drank tea in an arty way. At most, he imitated other people to observe its color, smell its fragrance, and then said, "It has both color and fragrance. It is indeed a top-quality tea." Unexpectedly, this Baoguo Wei not only knows how to do it, but he even knows how to write poems.

It seems that what Lao Bao said about Bao Guowei being appreciated by that person is true?Besides, Bao Guowei does look a bit noble in a suit. He doesn't look like a child from a lowly family, and even looks more like a child from a wealthy family than Qin San from his family.

Mrs. Qin is Mr. Qin's virtuous and intelligent wife. When she sees Bao Guowei reciting a poem, she will immediately praise her.

"When Guowei was a child, Bao Zheng came to live with him in his house. Originally, this was against the rules. Logically speaking, he couldn't make such an offer. But the master was so blessed that he suddenly thought of letting Bao Guowei go. Studying in primary school is God’s will.”

"Yes, I shouldn't have cared about this matter, but after all, Lao Bao has worked in the Qin Mansion for more than thirty years, so I can't ignore it. He even lent Qin San's book to Guowei to read. Now it seems that this is God's will , Guowei can speak well at a young age, no wonder he can..."

Mrs. Qin and Mr. Qin sang together. First, she stated that she had paid Lao Bao 30 years' salary, and later lent him books to read. There was no need to mention that she had to intercede with Bao Guowei so that he could attend the Western School of the Provincial Middle School. Bao Guowei must remember it clearly.

This means that he has affection and kindness towards the Bao family.

Next, it’s time to talk about the business of coming to see Bao Guowei today.

But before Mr. Qin finished speaking, he was secretly kicked by Mrs. Qin.

Mr. Qin was slightly startled, realizing that he was a little impatient, and asked what he was doing so early.

"Oh, today I just got together with Lao Bao and Guo Wei. Lao Bao has been working in the Qin Mansion for more than thirty years. We have watched Guo Wei grow up."

This is what Mrs. Qin said. Her voice sounded like a woman in her thirties. It sounded like she must have had a good voice when she was young.

"Okay, okay, today is a gathering. Come here, is the food ready? Let Hu Da serve the food! I asked Hu Da to prepare a table of dishes today, and I'm just waiting for you two, Bao Zheng and Guo Wei, to come and eat."

Looking at this ability to tell lies with open eyes, the master, his wife, and his servants, father and son, gathered together for a meal.

It’s a shame that this couple could say this without changing their expressions.

If it weren't for the fact that I knew the Chu family in Shanghai, I'm afraid this meal would be gone.No, not to mention that there is no food, I am afraid that Lao Bao will be punished for being late.

Bao Guowei just watched these two acting. In fact, he still had a good impression of these two, and he really treated the Bao family well.Although the two later ignored him, he was not their child, just the son of a loyal servant.

It is very kind for others to intercede for you so that you can go to school and lend you books to read. At least in this era, it is considered a great kindness.

Not to mention that Lao Bao has received more than thirty years' salary from others, so Bao Guowei can be regarded as half of Bao Guowei's parents, so Bao Guowei must miss his old relationship.

Soon several servants came over with food.

"Here, let's eat some home-cooked food."

Roast suckling pig, hen soup, mapo tofu, grilled lamb skewers, scrambled eggs, fried shredded potatoes, rice porridge and steamed buns were served one by one.

This is nothing, the key is that there is fried rice with sausage, which Hu Da personally served.

This is morning!Who has nothing to eat with sausage fried rice?It must have been specially made for Bao Guowei.

After eating and chatting for a while, Mr. Qin couldn't bear it anymore.

Does Bao Guowei know the young master of the Chu family?In case he didn't know him, he would have waited all this time in vain and spent all his efforts to find Hu Da to make something that Bao Guowei likes to eat.

Bao Guowei saw Master Qin's thoughts and didn't say anything. Anyone can mention this matter, but it's best not to mention it yourself. Whoever raises it first will give people a feeling of asking for something, and he will naturally become weak. .

It is Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin who are anxious, not herself.

After chatting, the atmosphere became a little cold for a while, and Mr. Qin had to bring up the matter.

"I heard that Guowei also met a noble man. This is true or false."

"I met someone from Shanghai."

Bao Guowei sandwiched shredded potatoes and swallowed a sip of chicken soup with the steamed buns, speaking in a leisurely manner.

"I heard that the person's surname is Chu?"

"Well, Chu Ze from the Chu family in Shanghai came back from studying in Cambridge."

hiss!Mr. Qin took a breath of air.The Shanghai Chu family used to be a powerful family in Gusu many years ago, but later moved to Shanghai for some reasons, but the power in this city of Gusu can still be said to be overwhelming with one hand.

"The future is bright! The future is bright! If Guowei can get to know the eldest young master of the Chu family, he will definitely have a bright future in the future! Come, come, come, eat vegetables, eat vegetables, and eat a piece of Mapo tofu."

Mr. Qin now has no resentment at all, and is actually a little happy in his heart.He was even a little excited to pick up some food for Bao Guowei.

However, looking at Mr. Qin's fat and greasy face, and looking at the chopsticks stained with saliva, how could he eat this piece of tofu?

"Yes, no wonder when Lao Bao brought Guowei here, we suddenly remembered that we could send Guowei to study. It turns out that the Wenqu star in the sky came to this world. He can't do it without studying. This is God's will."

Mrs. Qin was also very happy: her family used to treat Bao Guowei well. If she could connect with the Chu family through Bao Guowei, wouldn't the Qin family skyrocket in the future?

As for Lao Bao, when he heard Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin praising Bao Guowei like this, he was speechless and almost fainted.
