White tea legend

Chapter 233 Couple Peak

Zhuo Laosan has lived in the countryside since he was a child. He has never set foot in a bustling city. The farthest place he has been is Wanghaili.

Going to Chang'an City was something he couldn't even imagine.

The legendary city of Chang'an, with its splendid palaces and dazzling shops, was where saints lived. It was a place that was out of reach for Zhuo Laosan.

Lady Yao Si was a noble daughter from Chang'an City. Her father was once the prime minister of the Li Dynasty and her brother was a high-ranking official. She came all the way to Mount Taimu just to learn how to make tea from Lu Yu and Lady White Tea.

Her beauty, talent and temperament all fascinated Zhuo Laosan. However, people are self-aware, and he also knows that his identity and status are not worthy of such a noble girl.

Although he has endless inferiority in his heart, Zhuo Laosan cannot restrain his love for Mrs. Yao Si. Every time he saw her elegant manners and heard her melodious laughter, his heart would beat involuntarily. However, he also understood that such love was destined to be unattainable. Because there is an insurmountable gap between them.

Just when Zhuo Laosan was in endless entanglement and pain, Mrs. Yao Si suddenly threw an olive branch to him. She invited him to go to Chang'an to open a tea shop. She said she needed the help of someone familiar with tea.

Zhuo Laosan learned to make tea from Lu Yu. He was diligent and studious, and had already caught the eye of Mrs. Yao Si.

Faced with such an opportunity, Zhuo Laosan was both excited and scared. What he was excited about was that he finally had the opportunity to follow Mrs. Yao Si to Chang'an City and realize his dream; what he was afraid of was whether he was qualified for the job and whether he could gain a foothold in that prosperous city.

After some struggle, Zhuo Laosan decided to follow Lady Yao Si to Chang'an City. He told himself that this might be an opportunity given to him by fate and he could not give up easily. So, he began to prepare for this long journey, and became more diligent in following Lu Yu and Bai Cha to learn how to run a tea shop and understand the situation in Chang'an City.

However, as the day of departure approached day by day, Zhuo Laosan's mood became heavier and heavier. He was worried that he would be looked down upon because of his rural background, and that he would make a fool of himself in Chang'an City because of his lack of sophistication. These worries kept him awake at night, making him unable to eat well and worrying about gains and losses.

In addition to being afraid of the unknown future, Zhuo Laosan is also worried about his parents at home.

His parents were not traveling far away. If he followed Mrs. Yao Si to Chang'an City, he would not be able to fulfill his filial piety in front of his parents.

But there are two older brothers beside the parents. Thanks to Wang Shanhe, the two older brothers are now married and married to sisters-in-law. I think they will take good care of their parents.

As long as Zhuo Laosan decides to go to Beijing to make a living, his parents will definitely not stop him or hold him back.

But Chang'an City still makes Zhuo Laosan cringe.

Zhuo Laosan was so worried about gains and losses, and finally took a bottle of wine and quietly hid in the tea garden of Taimu Mountain to drink.

On the hilltop opposite the tea garden, Couple Peak stands tall, like a fairy couple hugging each other tightly. The tall one is like a husband, strong and straight, standing tall and tall; the low one is like a delicate wife, gentle and gentle, as tender as water. The two stones are dependent on each other, as if they have been baptized by the years and are still as loving as ever. The wind, frost, rain and snow have never changed the posture of watching each other, which makes people think of the ancient saying "holding the hand of the son, and growing old together with the son."

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the outline of Couple Peak is soft and shrouded in a golden halo, making it appear solemn and sacred. Zhuo Laosan couldn't help but sigh, how wonderful it would be if he and Mrs. Yao Si could finally get married like Husband and wife peak?

The prerequisite is to have a lover first.

Are he and Mrs. Yao Sima a couple?
He has feelings for Lady Yao, but what about Lady Yao for him?

I'm afraid it's King Xiang's intention, but the goddess is ruthless, right?

And what kind of king is he? He is just a bumpkin from the countryside.

The more Zhuo Laosan thought about it, the more he felt inferior and discouraged. He couldn't help but drink a few more sips of wine and got drunk.

As soon as Zhuo Laosan fell asleep, the two stones opposite moved. Just hearing the fairy sound, the two stones miraculously transformed into human shapes in the afterglow of the setting sun.

The originally majestic Husband Stone transformed into a senior monk with a kind face and solemn appearance; while the soft Wife Stone transformed into a pure nun, with endless compassion and wisdom revealed between her brows and eyes.

This pair of eminent monks and nuns, born out of stone, seem to have been reborn and freed from the fetters of the world. They sat opposite each other, meditating on the top of the mountain to understand Taoism and practice Brahma.

The two of them looked at the drunk young man in the tea garden opposite and shook their heads.

Asking what love is in the world can teach you how to make love between life and death.

But, how could they laugh at it?

Who has not been trapped by the emotions of the world?

The monk's original name was Fan Ge, and the nun's original name was Juan Mei. They lived together at the foot of Taimu Mountain.

Brother Fan was originally a young fisherman, handsome and kind-hearted, and was recognized as a good young man in the village. In the neighboring village, there is also a girl named Juanmei. She is as beautiful as a flower and has a clever mind and is deeply loved by the villagers.

By chance, Brother Fan met Juanmei who came to wash clothes while fishing at the beach. The two fell in love at first sight and their love story began. They agreed to meet at the beach every day, regardless of wind or rain, and never stopped. When Brother Fan goes out to sea to fish, Sister Juan will always see him off on the shore. Whenever Brother Fan comes back, he will go to see Sister Juan immediately, and the relationship between the two grows deeper and deeper.

However, the good times did not last long. One day, a violent storm suddenly broke out on the sea, and huge waves surged into the sky. Juanmei was anxiously waiting for Brother Fan's return on the shore, but Brother Fan didn't come back until dark. Juanmei was so worried that she decided to go to the beach to find Brother Fan. She braved the wind and rain and came to the beach, but found that the waves in the sea were too strong and she could not go into the sea.

Juanmei looked helplessly at the raging waves with tears streaming down her face. She decided to wait for Brother Fan at the beach until he came back.

However, Brother Fan did not wait for his return, but a bolt from the blue came. The news of the emperor's selection of a concubine was like a disaster that had come to the peaceful village.

The beautiful Juanmei was spotted by the emperor's messenger. Juanmei only had Brother Fan in her heart, and she resolutely chose to escape from this place of right and wrong. She didn't have time to say goodbye to her neighbors, so she left in a hurry and embarked on an unknown journey.

During the days of escape, Juanmei went through many hardships and finally passed out in front of a ruined temple. Fortunately, a compassionate nun found her and rescued her back to the temple. Juanmei's home was burned down, leaving her homeless. Frustrated, she chose to become a nun in search of spiritual solace.

Time flies, three years have passed. On this day, when Juanmei was collecting herbs in the mountains, she saw a familiar figure - that was Brother Fan who became a monk! He was chopping wood, and their eyes met, as if time had stopped. Juanmei was so excited that she fainted, and when she woke up, she found herself lying in Brother Fan's arms.

Three years of separation left them with too much to say. It turned out that Brother Fan could not find Juanmei when he finally returned from fishing that day and thought she had been taken into the palace. Later, he decided to become a monk after meeting a monk who came down the mountain to seek alms.

The two reunited after a long separation and decided to return to their hometown and rebuild their home. However, their actions alarmed Master Nanhai.

The Master severely reprimanded them for violating the Buddhist rules. The two told their stories, but the Master was ruthless and refused to let them go.

Facing the threat from the mage, Brother Fan carried Juanmei on his back without hesitation and wanted to escape. However, the mage chanted a spell, and the two of them instantly turned into a stone.

The past is like fireworks, dazzling but short-lived.

Brother Fan and Sister Juan looked at each other on the top of Taimu Mountain. The tender affection in their eyes had long since faded. In the thousands of years since it had turned into stone, the earthly love in their hearts had long since disappeared, leaving only the clear friendship of Taoist friends.

"One cut of plum blossoms from the Ten Thousand Mountains,

There are two or three rooms with cold clouds and snow.

Calling the forest to go to the usual place,
Laughing at yourself and looking at the flowers is not idle. "

Brother Fan, who is already an immortal monk, recited a poem that was detached, down-to-earth, and full of Zen.

Sister Juan, who has become Xianni, smiled and said: "He is a mortal and a passionate young man. How can you ask him to look down on the love between men and women right now? Naturally, he can't look down on it and can't see through it. It's better to fulfill it."

Brother Fan and sister Fan looked at each other and smiled, pointing at the drunken boy lying in the tea garden, and the boy woke up.

The young man opened his eyes, and in front of him was the same sleepy Mrs. Yao Si.

"Zhuo Laosan, why are you here?"

"Miss Yao Si, why are you here?"

"I'm going to Chang'an in the next two days. What are your plans? Are you going to Chang'an with me?"

"Ms. Yao Si, the third child wants to ask you something. Once I get the answer, the third child will make his own decision."

"Third brother, tell me." "Mrs. Yao Si, do you... have feelings for the third child?"

"What about you?"

"Naturally there is."

Zhuo Laosan felt a profuse sweat break out on his forehead.

He didn't know how he suddenly had the courage to ask this question.

The two rocks on the opposite mountain, shaped like monks and nuns, smiled with satisfaction, but remained motionless.

Madam Yao Si's heart was beating so fast, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. Her cheeks were stained with a faint blush, and her eyes shone with unconcealable joy and excitement.

She bit her lower lip gently, trying to suppress her emotions, but those bright eyes betrayed her true feelings.

Zhuo Laosan's confession was like a bolt of lightning that cut through the calm lake in Mrs. Yao's heart, causing ripples.

She had imagined this moment coming for countless nights, but she never imagined that reality would be so beautiful.

She has liked Zhuo Laosan for a long time. From the first time she saw his handsome figure, she was deeply attracted by him.

Whenever he walked into the tea-making room, her eyes would follow him involuntarily, and her heart was filled with a sweet feeling.

Zhuo Laosan's confession made Mrs. Yao Si feel unprecedented happiness. She once thought that this was just unrequited love, and she was destined to guard this relationship silently.

However, Zhuo Laosan's question broke her silence and gave her a glimmer of hope. His frankness and sincerity made Ms. Yao Si feel extremely warm, as if she was in a world surrounded by love.

Mrs. Yao Si's heart was filled with gratitude and joy.

She thanked fate for allowing them to meet, and thanked Zhuo Laosan for giving her the opportunity to move into the future with him.

She is willing to give everything for him, whether it is wind and rain or ups and downs, she is willing to stay with him and experience the ups and downs of life together.

At this moment, Mrs. Yao Si felt that she was the happiest person in the world. Her mood was like a blooming flower bursting into brilliant colors.

Her smile was bright and innocent, as if the sun was shining on her body.

Her eyes were filled with deep love for Zhuo Laosan. It was an indescribable emotion that only the two of them could understand.

"Fool, why did I invite you to the capital alone instead of Xuanfeng? Don't you understand my feelings for you?"

A cockatoo flew across the sky and screamed: "Oh my god, why are you stabbing me in such a show of love?"

Only the cockatiel's injured world was achieved.

Lu Yu and Bai Cha appeared behind Zhuo Laosan and Yao Si.

"The third disciple, the fourth lady..."

Zhuo Laosan and Mrs. Yao Si turned around and stood up hurriedly. They saw their two masters.

"Master, we have decided to go to Chang'an to open a teahouse together, and let Changxi White Tea come to Beijing to take the exam." Mrs. Yao Si said.

"I would like to accompany Fourth Lady to the capital and bring the white tea craftsmanship taught to us by the two masters to the capital." Zhuo Laosan said.

"Okay, I hope you have a bright future here and become a tea couple that everyone admires." Bai Cha said.

The word "tea lover" made both Zhuo Laosan and Yao Si Niang blush.

Bai Cha, on the other hand, nodded slightly in greeting to the pair of stones on the opposite mountain.

The pair of stones on the opposite mountain also transformed into Brother Fan and Sister Juan in front of Bai Cha, smiling at Bai Cha.

Cupid.

Bai Cha said in his heart.

Don't dare to take it seriously.

Brother Fan and Sister Fan replied.

Seeing Bai Cha staring at the pair of stones, Lu Yu couldn't help but look over curiously. They were just a pair of stones, looking like a monk holding a nun. He didn't know what Bai Cha was laughing at.

"Madam, what are the names of those stones?"

"Couple Peak."

Lu Yu remembered that there was indeed such a couple's peak on Taimu Mountain.

"Madam, why are you smiling at Couple Peak?"

Lu Yu is a mortal now, so he naturally does not have the eye to see the gods, unless the gods themselves want him to see them.

"It's nothing." Bai Cha said perfunctorily to Lu Yu.

Mrs. Yao Si and Zhuo Laosan are about to leave for Beijing, and the whole Baiyuan is practicing for them.

For ordinary people, it takes several months to walk from Changxi County to Chang'an City, and the road is unpredictable. What if you encounter some bad people?

Bai Cha decided to let Xuanfeng use his big wings to escort the two to Chang'an.

Xuanfeng was very reluctant because Mrs. Yao Si stepped on him, pretending that he was injured.

"Where are you injured?" Bai Cha saw that his whole body was in great condition.

"It's hurt here." Xuanfeng pointed at his heart.

"Then it's okay, as long as the wings are good."

"Sister, woo woo woo."

"Stop whining and go ahead."

So, Xuanfeng spread his big wings and set off with Mrs. Yao Si and Zhuo Laosan. Naturally, Zhuo Laosan was asleep. Baicha had fed him sleepy bugs, and he would not wake up until he reached Chang'an City.

Momo and Lily flew to Chang'an City by themselves.

Bai Cha asked the two sisters to accompany them to Chang'an to escort Yao Si Niangzi and Zhuo Laosan's tea shop. If two mortals do business, if they encounter any difficulties, it will be safer if there are two powerful people around. some.

Have a good weekend. Babies.
