Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 12 Shocked
"What's wrong, miss?"

Dongmei saw that her young lady had a different expression, serious and serious, so she hurriedly came over.

This expression of the young lady only appears when faced with a major decision.

As one of Dong Shuyu's right-hand assistants, Dongmei knows her temperament very well.

Dong Shuyu did not answer Dongmei, but just stared at the tea bowl on the table with an extremely serious expression.

Chun Xue pulled her back, and Dongmei, who was about to "hands off" Miss, shook her head with a smile on her lips.

He put his index finger in front of his lips and made a silent gesture.

Dongmei was confused. Is there any secret between the eldest lady and Haruyuki that she doesn't know about...

little time.

"Miss, it should be soaked." Haruyuki said softly.

Dong Shuyu nodded slightly.

Haruyuki held both sides of the "tureen" with both hands, and opened it with a slight force——

Dong Shuyu slowly raised his head, and his beautiful eyes closed naturally.

Qiongbi inhaled gently, and the rich and mellow tea fragrance penetrated straight into her nose like wisps of mist...

Dong Shuyu's eyes suddenly opened.

Her eyes fell on the tea soup in the tea bowl. It was a strange fragrance that she had never smelled before!

Dong Shuyu is in charge of Dong's Tea House. She is very good at making and drinking tea. There is no tea in the world that she does not know.

But this tea fragrance...

If she hadn't smelled it, then no one else had either.

"The aroma is wonderful, sharp and bright. It is not like tea cakes, which have a dull aroma with a green astringency. Moreover, some tea cakes are also mixed with borneol and other substances, which makes the fragrance fragrant, but also Bored."

Dong Shuyu moved closer to his nose, took a deep breath, and unconsciously formed a very faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

He praised again: "This fragrance smells very good. Just a slight sniff can make you feel refreshed."

"In addition to the dark green color of the soup, the tea leaves seem to have returned to their freshly picked appearance after being brewed in hot water!"

Dong Shuyu discovered another secret and was immediately amazed.

After being surprised, Dong Shuyu looked at Chunxue and asked, "What does it taste like?"

Chunxue immediately took a white porcelain wine glass, poured some tea soup into it, held it in both hands, and handed it to Dong Shuyu.

Dong Shuyu took it and held the wine glass, always feeling it was a bit strange to drink tea from a wine glass.

But she couldn't tell what was strange...

She holds the cup in her left hand, and covers it with her right hand, using her wide sleeves to cover her drinking... No, it should be the gesture of drinking tea.

The two maids, Haruyue and Dongmei, stared at their young lady without blinking.

For Dongmei, she finally understood what the secret between the young lady and Haruyuki was.After smelling the sharp and bright aroma of tea, everything is self-evident.

As for Haruyuki, she also felt strange when she saw the eldest lady drinking tea in a drinking posture.

In the teahouse, my uncle always drinks from a small bowl and a wine glass...

She wondered if her uncle would blame her for using another instrument without authorization. Would this be a form of disrespect for her uncle?
Haruyuki's thinking was actually quite reasonable.

Because "ritual" was valued in ancient times, this "ritual" is not politeness, etiquette, etc. in the modern sense, but more of a rule of conduct and speech.

For example, tea and porridge must be cooked with a tripod, not a pot.If you want to drink tea and porridge, you should use a tea bowl and don’t just hold the tripod and eat it.

For another example, when eating, you need to use a bowl to eat. You cannot just put the rice pot on the table and everyone eats with their hands...

"Bubble tea" was invented by my uncle. When he drank bubble tea for the first time, he used large and small bowls.

So the rules for drinking bubble tea are basically set, which is to use large and small bowls as tea sets.

However, Haruyuki always felt that drinking tea from a bowl was strange, the posture was not elegant, and it was not suitable for a young lady, so... she used a wine glass.

"Hmm..." Dong Shuyu tasted the tea soup carefully.

After thinking about it for a long time, he said: "The taste is bright, thick, and mellow, without the astringent taste of tea and porridge before... Huh?"

Dong Shuyu's eyes suddenly flashed, he stood up and took two steps, feeling carefully.

He said happily: "Yes, this tea soup is indeed the same as its fragrance. It can relieve people's fatigue... This is the real tea!"

"Miss? What can you do to relieve your fatigue?" Dongmei, who has not had bubble tea yet, asked curiously.

"In the past, we mixed tea leaves with various ingredients and cooked them into tea porridge. We only used tea leaves as medicinal materials. Too many ingredients made the tea lose a lot of its original flavor. Xiuyuan's tea tree fried in an iron pot There are no ingredients added to the buds, only the pure aroma of tea... And the tea soup brewed from this kind of tea has the effect of relieving people's fatigue... This is really wonderful!"

Dong Shuyu drank another glass of tea and said slowly.

……

tea house.

The guys were busy making and tasting tea, expressing their opinions one after another, and it was lively.

Dong Shuzhen and Xia Wu, led by Qiu Wen, discovered the perfect combination of tea and pastries...

So they found a place to sit down, chatting, drinking tea and eating cakes.

This is clearly a "tea party"!

Zhu Xiuyuan looked at this scene with a smile on his lips.

He thought: "Modern people have tea, coffee, Red Bull, and functional drinks such as Jiaduobao and Wanglaoji. But in this world, there is only one tea! And even the method of ordering tea has not been invented... Nowadays This kind of 'tea porridge' is actually a kind of medicine, probably similar to the modern isatis root, which can cure all kinds of diseases. Now I have 'released' the method of making tea, which can be regarded as adding a new functionality to them. drinks……"

When Zhu Xiuyuan was thinking wildly, he saw Dong Shuyu walking towards him quickly.

Behind him were two maids, Haruyue and Dongmei.

"Miss!"

"Miss!"

"Miss!"

The guys in the tea house immediately stopped their discussion and bowed aside to show their respect.

"elder sister!"

Dong Shuzhen heard the noise and immediately ran over, like a bird just out of the cage, full of energy, holding Dong Shuyu's hand with a smile.

And she said as if she was offering a treasure: "Sister, my husband has made a new kind of tea, and the guys at the tea house are all in agreement! They even named me the 'Tea God'."

"Tea God?"

Dong Shuyu was dumbfounded.

"That's why I'm here."

Dong Shuyu touched his sister's head, his voice was still cold, but it also contained warmth and softness.

Dong Shuzhen stood there blankly, a little confused. My sister already knew what it was!
Dong Shuyu passed over the stunned sister and walked straight towards Zhu Xiuyuan.

He took out a handkerchief from his arms, unfolded it, and showed the tea leaves inside.

She asked: "Xiuyuan, did you make this tea...?"

"I said the method, but when it comes to the actual work, it was actually done by the guys at the teahouse." Zhu Xiuyuan said with a smile.

At this time, the confused Dong Shuzhen, the maid, and the tea house clerk were all looking at Dong Shuyu and Zhu Xiuyuan and listening to the conversation between them.

The guys at the tea house were naturally very moved.

My uncle is not arrogant about taking credit, and highlights their achievements in front of the eldest lady... It is really admirable!

Because they know that this kind of fried tea will bring a huge opportunity to Dong's Tea House...

It’s a huge opportunity for Dong’s Tea House, the teahouse, and the guys like them!
