Chapter 29 Tutorial Yaojin Drinking Tea
Today's trip gave him a great shock.
It feels like a dream!!
When he saw the princess for the first time, Cheng Yaojin thought he was dreaming!
He was just short of swearing!
He could never have imagined that Changle, which should have been in Baiyun County now , would be connected to the newly opened tea shop today.
Not only that.
Just now, it seemed vaguely... it seemed... as if...
I seemed to hear the tea shop clerk calling "Madam"?
When he thought of this, Cheng Yaojin broke out in a cold sweat.
No! No way? Could this tea shop still be opened by Qin Wenyuan?
Is this... am I, an old man, dreaming? Or is this world just too crazy!
Cheng Yaojin was in a mess, his brain froze for a while and he was unable to think at all.
In the end, he was dragged away by Changle's hand.
The whole person is in a daze and disoriented.
Cheng Chumo, who was standing by, was completely stunned when he saw Changle here.
He just came out to have a cup of tea with his father, how could he meet the princess?
It's completely torn apart!
"Uncle Cheng, why are you here? Are you here to celebrate my husband's grand opening as well?"
Putting aside the nervousness during the meeting, Changle was still very happy that Cheng Yaojin could come.
Cheng Yaojin frowned, "Princess, I...I said I just came here to buy some tea cakes. Do you believe me?"
At this moment, Cheng Yaojin finally understood that this tea shop was really opened by Changle and Qin Wenyuan.
He really didn't expect that Qin Wenyuan, a poor little guy who was known thoroughly by him and His Majesty, actually had such great abilities.
I can open a tea shop in Chang'an!
And the most terrifying thing is that he actually knows Lin Youwei, the Minister of Works. This is simply beyond imagination!
Now, he suddenly recalled the moment when Changle broke up with his father, Emperor Li Shimin, and the words that Changle said with absolute confidence at that moment...
[My husband must be Qianlong! ]
When I first heard this sentence, I thought it was just a stubborn and angry remark.
But after seeing this scene, Cheng Yaojin no longer had such thoughts.
As expected of the princess' husband, he is truly extraordinary.
Cheng Yaojin suddenly became very curious about Qin Wenyuan.
At this moment, Changle smiled and said, "Want to buy tea cakes? Then Uncle Cheng, it's a good thing that you met me, because no one knows our tea better than me."
Hearing this, Cheng Yaojin was slightly stunned, "Tea?"
Tea cakes, he understood this because the other three stores all sold tea cakes.
But this tea was a bit unbelievable. He had never heard of it before.
"That's right. We not only sell tea cakes, but also loose tea."
Cheng Yaojin asked: "Is there any difference?"
Changle nodded, "Of course. Common tea cakes usually need to be boiled, which not only takes a long time, but also tastes very bad after boiling, and is also very unpalatable."
"But our tea, loose tea, can be brewed and drunk, and the water does not need to be too hot. You can drink it directly after brewing, without having to wait for the hot water to cool down like ordinary tea cakes."
As Changle was speaking, he saw Cheng Yaojin's confused look and could not help but change his words: "Forget it, Uncle Cheng, Chu Mo, let me show you."
The group of three soon arrived at the place where water was being boiled.
Changle began to learn how to make tea.
First, she fetched water to boil.
After cooking for just a while, it was taken out.
"Princess, you can't do this. The water is not hot enough to make tea." Cheng Chumo blurted out.
Changle smiled slightly, "It's OK, Chumo, just watch."
She first put aside a half-full cup of hot water, then took out some very strange pottery.
These pottery pieces looked very strange in the eyes of Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Chumo, father and son.
But if there were modern people here, they would know that this pottery is extremely familiar!
Because, this is the teapot and teacup!!
Changle took out the teapot, opened the lid, and started brewing tea using the standard tea-making method of later generations.
Then, he poured the brewed tea into two cups.
"Princess, is it really possible to drink it like this?" Cheng Chumo expressed his doubt.
Cheng Yaojin, who was standing aside, didn't say anything, but his frown showed that he was also very doubtful at the moment.
Changle nodded and said, "Of course, my smartest husband taught me, so it can't be wrong."
smartest??
My goodness, Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Chumo both felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.
Then, just as they were doubting, the aroma of tea came out.
When you first put it in the teacup, the flavor is not noticeable.
But as time went by, the smell became stronger and stronger.
"Hmm? What a nice smell." Cheng Yaojin, who was at the front, noticed it first.
He couldn't help but pick up the teacup and looked at the light yellow tea in the cup with some interest.
After taking a sip, Cheng Yaojin's eyes suddenly widened.
"This! It's delicious! It's even better than what I bought from Master Lin yesterday!"
Cheng Yaojin was shocked as if by thunder. He turned around and said, "You little bastard, come and have a taste."
Cheng Chumo stepped forward and tasted a cup as well.
"Oh my God! This... is this really the tea cake I know?" Cheng Chumo was also shocked.
Changle looked at the shocked expressions of the two and felt very proud.
After all, this tea was made by her husband Qin Wenyuan.
Changle chuckled and said, "Ahem, Uncle Cheng, my husband said that it's best not to in one gulp."
"How do we drink it?" Cheng Yaojin asked.
Changle poured a cup of tea and demonstrated, "First, you need to put the cup to your nose and smell it gently for a few times. Then, take a sip from the cup and gently taste every drop of tea."
"Finally, sip all the tea and swallow it in one gulp."
Upon hearing this , the two of them referred to the method Changle had just mentioned.
Sure enough, they tasted the tea better than the first sip they took before!
Cheng Chumo was still not satisfied and said, "Princess, your husband is amazing. He can make such an unpalatable tea taste so good. He is really a god!!"
Hearing this, Changle's red lips curled up slightly , and the next moment, all her happiness was almost written on her face.
She said proudly: "Of course, my husband, in my eyes, he is the most powerful."
"Of course, I'm not even worthy of being called a god. At most, I'm just a little bit better than an ordinary person."
Haha, you are a little bit fake!
Cheng Yaojin was speechless. Looking at Changle's expression, did it mean that Qin Wenyuan was only a little bit more capable?
She looked so happy that she almost said, "Yes, yes, yes, that's right, my husband is invincible!"
Cheng Yaojin smiled helplessly, and at the same time, he felt happy for Changle in his heart.
After what happened today, at least he understood.
What I, Your Majesty, and other ministers think about Qin Wenyuan being incompetent is absolutely wrong!
Qin Wenyuan, this is a man of great talent!
