Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 13 The Sad Truth

He was originally plump and handsome, but he was dressed in a spotless moon white dress, sitting there like a fairy.

That hand, which is silverier than white jade, has slender and beautiful joints, moves like clouds and flowing water, without any fireworks.

A bowl of high mountain and flowing water was brought out, and the tea soup was extremely elegant.

That technique, that demeanor, that breathtakingly beautiful tea soup.

With that tea fragrance.

The lord sold the pound of dragon ball for 200 taels of gold on the spot.

At the same time, [-] catties of tuancha were purchased at a price of [-] yuan per catty.

Xie Jue accepted the gold, but Tuancha did not accept the money, but exchanged it for the equivalent value of Nanzhu ivory, spiced coral and amber.

Moreover, there is no need for the other party to deliver the goods immediately, but to make a written document first and deliver the goods when the ship returns.

After the deal was finalized, Xie Jue bought another [-] catties of rice and boarded the boat.

Annan's rice is grown three times a year, and the yield is high, so the price of rice is very cheap. One hundred thousand catties of rice is only a thousand taels of silver. Xie Jue directly threw two hundred catties of tuancha to the rice merchant.

Walking along the stone road in the port to the boat, Xie Jue was in a good mood. When he turned his head and saw Su Yue's constipated face, he didn't hit her immediately, but asked very gently: "What's the matter? Tea, I finally know that my idea of ​​making tea is just to deceive the country people?"

Xie Qi almost didn't laugh out loud.

Young master, you drank the tea made by Su Yue all the way. Could it be that you are a countryman?

Fortunately, before his expression changed, he remembered that every time he showed kindness, Xie Jue would vent his anger on Su Yue, and forcibly suppressed his face.

Turned to look to the side.

Su Yue glared at Xie Qi fiercely (I could see it even if I hid it), then lowered her eyes again and said, "Third Master, to be honest, it's my way of making tea that tastes better, or yours." drink?"

Bubble tea in this era is actually not the same concept as modern bubble tea.

The modern way of making tea is real brewing. Put the tea leaves into the teacup and pour boiling water.

Tea art is just for different teas, using different water, different water temperatures, different tea utensils, and different brewing times, trying to let the tea fragrance of different teas bloom.

However, the tea art of this era is really more artistic than tea fragrance.

First of all, tea is not brewed, but boiled!

Most of the tea at this time is round tea, so before making tea, the round cakes are opened first, some are thrown into the kettle, and boiled on the fire.

Then, those literati also like to throw things into it while cooking.

The most particular thing is when pouring the tea out of the kettle at the end, because of the different things thrown and special techniques, various patterns can be formed on the surface of the tea!
She had seen those literati making tea many times in her previous life.

Of course, in the end the emperor would still say that his favorite was the tea she made, which was simple and transparent.

At that time, she was very proud and felt that her tea art surpassed the tea making method of this era.

Even at that time, the tea soup made by several people surprised her, but at that time, she did not allow herself to face it squarely.

But now, when she was in a completely different mood, when she was really starting to look at everything with a learning attitude, she watched Xie Jue make tea.

So wonderful!

Even when the fragrance of tea has not overflowed, I feel intoxicated physically and mentally.

And the tea fragrance combined with the scene on the tea surface, it is a beautiful enjoyment.

It is not just the enjoyment of smell and taste, but the enjoyment of visual touch, even the heart is touched.

Watching Xie Jue order tea, while being amazed, she also had uncontrollable doubts in her heart.

The method of making tea, besides the tea itself, can at most give you an artistic conception.

But making tea seems to include the whole life.

In today's era of respecting literati and stream of consciousness.

The method of making tea is really what the country people drink, it is to quench their thirst and drink the taste.

Only the way of making tea can express their lofty state of mind and self-cultivation.

The emperor himself is also a leading poet, calligrapher and painter, how could he like her tea making method better than the tea making method?

This month, I have seen a lot of little girls being suppressed by me in all kinds of bitter ways.

Now Su Yue suddenly showed such a serious, calm, and even cautious expression that she hadn't seen for a long time.

Xie Jue was stunned.

Standing still, he looked at her and said, "You, don't you always think that your tea art is very good?"

For a seven-year-old girl and a country girl, what Su Yue knew and knew was already shocking.

But what made him even more interesting was the confidence in Su Yue.

Although I don't understand where her self-confidence comes from, but after being suppressed, it can make him very happy.

It's just that he said this now, not for the sake of shock.

Su Yue has a super talent in tea, but if the direction and cognition are wrong, in the future...

Su Yue didn't notice the difference in Xie Jue's tone, she still had that question in her mind, frowned slightly and said, "I think, in terms of tea itself, my brewing method is the best expression of tea. It's true, but I saw you make some tea, but I thought it was wrong, maybe..."

"If it's just the taste of the tea, it's natural that you make it delicious, but this is only for the tea you make yourself. As for the group tea, the tea fragrance is not so strong, and the tea is brewed and boiled, but the tea is more delicious. It has a special taste."

It’s fine if you have any doubts, Xie Jue breathed a sigh of relief, and said with rare patience: “Besides, when making and ordering tea, what you drink is not only the taste of the tea, but also the taste and mood of the person ordering the tea. For example, tea with ginger is completely different from tea with spices.”

Thinking about my previous life, I didn’t have the opportunity to go to a tea factory, and naturally I didn’t have the opportunity to make the tea I wanted. I just made a fuss about tribute tea.

A thought flashed in Su Yue's mind, and she blurted out, "Third Master, if it's a tea fight, which one do you think is better, the tea I made or the tea made by the tea orderer?"

Xie Jue looked at her like a fool for a long while, then snorted, and continued walking forward.

They shouldn't have colored you!

Xie Qi couldn't bear it, moved close to Su Yue, bowed his head, and said in a very low voice: "Yue Ya, don't be sad, don't worry, if that happens, the third master will not bear your defeat, even if he has no conscience, he will say you Good!"

"Xie Qi!" Xie Jue turned his head, grinding his teeth eeriely: "I heard it!"

Do you think I'm the kind of person who has no principles and uses intimacy to interfere with the outcome of the sacred tea fight?

After grinding, he said to Su Yue: "After you go back, you can learn how to make tea for me! If you can't learn it, I will throw you into the sea to feed the fish!"

Be partial, at least you can fight with others by making tea!

Su Yue let out an oh, and continued to run away.

In other words, the emperor was protecting her at that time!

It's not because she is good at making tea that I protect her, but I praise her for her good tea making skills because I protect her!

why?
Seeing Su Yue's absent-minded appearance, Xie Jue began to grind his teeth.

Just as he was thinking about how to punish her when he went back, he saw Xie Guang coming from the front.

With a full smile on his face, he said head-on: "Hey, nephew, why didn't you tell me that you have a dragon ball in your hand?"
