Little Aunt Xianmen

Chapter 263 Competing for Favor ([-])

Ji Zhuo believed it was true and had no objection.

Seeing that Ji Zhuo had finished making tea, Chen Xuanyuan immediately lowered his head and took a closer look at the tea leaves in the oiled paper bag.

The next moment, he took out a purple sand teapot that was the same color as Chen Jiaojiao's teapot from the storage ring on the little finger of his left hand.

Chen Jiaojiao was secretly happy, and continued to observe quietly.

At this time, Chen Xuanyuan opened the lid of the teapot, cast a spell with spiritual power, directly took two streams of clear mountain spring water with a faint bamboo fragrance from somewhere in the bamboo forest, and slowly poured it into the teapot until the teapot was full. Up to two-thirds full.

Next, he put the lid on the pot, held the teapot in his right hand, and condensed several fist-sized red hot balls from between the middle finger and index finger of his left hand, surrounding the bottom and surrounding of the teapot, heating the water in the pot.

After a while, the water boiled.

He also used his spiritual power to cast a spell, and several fist-sized snow-white ice balls condensed from between the left middle finger and index finger, wrapped around the bottom and surroundings of the teapot, cooling the water in the pot.

However, the cooling time is much shorter than the heating time.

When the water temperature was estimated to be around 80 degrees, he put away the ice puck, took out a handful of tea leaves, sprinkled them into two teacups, and poured boiling water to soak for a while.

Then, he picked up one of the cups of tea and cast a spell with his spiritual power. From between his left middle finger and index finger, a cake-shaped snow-white ice ball was condensed, and he placed it under the teacup to cool down the tea.

He only handed the cup of tea in his hand to Chen Jiaojiao when the temperature of the tea had cooled down.

"Jiaojiao, try it!" He looked at Chen Jiaojiao with clear eyes, and said in a gentle voice.

Chen Jiaojiao had been waiting on the side for a long time and couldn't wait, so he quickly took it.

This cup of tea is lukewarm, and the tea soup inside is green and bright. It not only exudes the unique fragrance of Heguang tea, but also has a faint fragrance of bamboo.

Just looking at and smelling it can make people have a good appetite.

Chen Jiaojiao lowered his head and took a sip, and found that the tea taste not only retained the unique elegance, freshness, mellow fragrance and sweetness of Heguang tea, but also left a faint cool and elegant aftertaste between his lips and teeth after entering his throat, which is very good.

"Good tea!" She was very satisfied. After admiring, she immediately took a few sips and drank the rest of the tea.

Ji Zhuo watched from the side, unhappy.

"Jiaojiao, obviously I made the tea for you first, so it's fine for you to drink the tea made by my profession first, how can you praise my profession first?"

"Taste this cup I brewed, this cup is no longer hot!" It said somewhat resentfully.

While talking, it took away the empty tea cup in Chen Jiaojiao's hand, and stuffed the cup of tea it brewed for Chen Jiaojiao directly into Chen Jiaojiao's hand.

Chen Jiaojiao glanced at the withered and yellow tea leaves and the dark yellow tea soup in the teacup, and smelled the burnt aroma from them, which seemed to be produced when brewing old tea leaves, and was spoiled by high temperature. .

However, on the surface, she still gave Ji Zhuo face, gritted her teeth, and reluctantly drank the cup of tea slowly.

"How does it taste?" Ji Zhuo asked impatiently, staring at Chen Jiaojiao's movements.

Chen Jiao tried to put on a satisfied look, nodded, and said, "It's okay."

Ji Zhuo's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Then I'll make another cup-"

"No need!"

"Brother Zhuozhuo, after all, you are making tea for the first time, you have no experience, and you can't control the temperature very well."

"Let's talk later when you have experience and can make tea better." Chen Jiaojiao hastily interrupted Ji Zhuo's words and said solemnly.

After finishing speaking, in order to prevent Ji Zhuo from pestering him like before, she had an idea and stood up.

She lifted the lid of the pot of boiling water that Chen Xuanyuan was burning on the low table, and looked inside.

After mentally estimating the amount of water in the pot and the amount of tea leaves needed to make tea, she grabbed a few handfuls from the bag of tea leaves on the table and threw them into the pot.

After a while, most of the tea leaves were soaked inside.

She pointed at the pot of tea and told Ji Zhuo to use spells to cool down.

Ji Zhuo originally thought that after Chen Jiaojiao refused to let him continue to make tea, he would let Chen Xuanyuan continue to make tea, and he was feeling a little unhappy.

Now, seeing that Chen Jiaojiao chose to make tea by himself, and chose to let it help cool down the tea, without using Chen Xuanyuan in the whole process, his mood suddenly jumped up.

It lowered its head excitedly, imitating Chen Xuanyuan's method of cooling the tea just now, and condensed several fist-sized snow-white ice balls from between the left middle finger and index finger, and circled the bottom and surrounding of the teapot to cool down the tea soup in the pot.

Taking advantage of its busy time, Chen Jiaojiao quietly sent a sound transmission to Chen Xuanyuan's spiritual consciousness at the side: "Yuan'er, the tea you brewed for me just now is not so delicious."

"It not only retains the unique elegance, freshness, mellow sweetness of my Heguang tea, but after entering the throat, there is still a faint cool and elegant aftertaste between the lips and teeth, which is very good!"

The corners of Chen Xuanyuan's lips curled up slightly.

"Jiaojiao, since you like drinking the tea I make so much, you don't have to make tea by yourself in the future. When you want to drink tea, as long as I am here, you can just ask me to make it." .

After finishing speaking, he handed another cup of tea he made to Chen Jiaojiao.

Chen Jiaojiao considered that the tea he brewed would be ready to drink soon, so he could give Chen Xuanyuan a few cups in return, which is not polite.

"Okay." She agreed and took the tea in her hand.

not bad.Although this cup of tea is different from the previous cup, it has not been cooled.

However, because it has been placed for a while, it is not very hot now, and it tastes just right.

Chen Jiaojiao held it in his hand, and after sipping the tea carefully, he was very satisfied.

It was Ji Zhuo who, just at this time, had cooled down the pot of tea that Chen Jiaojiao had brewed.

It looked up and saw that Chen Jiaojiao was holding a teacup in his hand, but the cup of tea in front of Chen Xuanyuan was gone, and immediately understood what happened just now when it didn't realize it.

It suspected that it was Chen Xuanyuan's fault, turned its head and gave Chen Xuanyuan a hard look, then deliberately ignored Chen Xuanyuan, only poured two cups of tea from the teapot, put one cup in front of Chen Jiaojiao, and kept the other cup for itself.

Chen Xuanyuan didn't care at all, and with a natural expression, he casually picked up the teacup that Chen Jiaojiao had just drank, poured out a cup of tea from the teapot, and took a light sip.

"Good tea!" He admired sincerely.

"Jiaojiao brewed it with her own hands, of course it's good tea!" Ji Zhuo felt quite honored when he heard that.

After speaking, it poured the cup of tea for itself and quickly drank it down.

At this time, Chen Jiaojiao happened to take a sip of the tea she made herself.

I feel that this tea has a little more tea leaves, and the taste is a little stronger, which is not as good as the two cups Chen Xuanyuan brewed, which is just right.

If there is a tool for sifting tea like in modern times, you can continue to make a second tea, and the taste is probably still very good.

However, Chen Xuanyuan and Ji Zhuo are not outsiders. Since they are willing to give her face and praise her, she is naturally willing to accept it. She didn't practice humility and excuses. She began to drink tea and seriously think about how to get the favor of a senior Taoist. Forgive me, so that I can enter the depths of the Dao Da cave again and bring Lingmo No. 2 back.

Chen Xuanyuan and Ji Zhuo saw it, and consciously didn't bother her.

One entered a state of rest with eyes closed after drinking two cups of tea.

The other, after drinking two cups of tea, took Chen Jiaojiao's teapot, and directed his spiritual power toward the direction where Chen Xuanyuan used his spiritual power to cast a spell just now, and captured two clear mountain springs from somewhere in the bamboo forest. go.
