Jiangmen's direct daughter is busy farming

Chapter 76 Three teas and six meals (3)
"Second Miss Song, can you tell me which three courses of tea and which six meals are they?" Gu Zicheng has always had the habit of inquiring, and whenever he encounters something he doesn't understand or something he has never heard of, he has to ask clearly before he is reconciled.

Jingyue didn't expect that Gu Zicheng was still a "curious baby", so she kindly explained: "The three teas and six meals I entertain guests today are three scented teas and six kinds of food."

"What is scented tea?" Li Yuan also became curious.

Jingyue said: "As the name suggests, scented tea is a kind of fragrant tea made from flowers and tea. I read a few books in Qianhuang Mountain more than a year ago, which recorded the baking method of scented tea. I just did it myself, but I didn’t expect it to be successful. The first dish is jasmine tea, which is made of roasted green tea and white and crystal-clear jasmine. It smells jasmine and ranks as the first fragrance in the world' is this jasmine tea."

"Then what's the second scented tea?" Gu Zicheng heard Jingyue say that the jasmine tea was so excellent, and thought that the second scented tea must also be a high-quality product.

Jingyue interjected: "The second scented tea is sweet-scented osmanthus tea, which has a light and long-lasting fragrance, and regular drinking of this tea can warm and nourish yang, detoxify and nourish the skin; the third scented tea is white orchid tea, which has a strong, long-lasting and refreshing fragrance. .”

The three scented teas that Jingyue mentioned were made by her when she was farming in the northern suburbs, using her spare time in farming to try to bake them.

Since the pure crushing is to satisfy her own appetite, Jingyue baked very few scented teas, and she gave more than half of them to Mr. Song and Mr. Su respectively. Except for these two old people and Jingyue, no one else drank it. These three teas.

Jingyue originally wanted to give the remaining tea leaves to her parents, but thinking about the other family members of the Song and Su families, she kept it because the tea leaves were not enough. , she will be in big trouble, it is better not to give it at all, and bake more next spring before distributing it.

Therefore, when Jingyue gave tea to the two old men, she also deliberately told the two old men about her "difficulties". Both Mr. Song and Mr. Su were secretly delighted: Whenever girl Jingyue has something good, she will think about them first. , they naturally won't let others know, they just have fun secretly.

Therefore, when the two old men drank tea, they were all alone in the study, and it was rare that no one noticed, otherwise, the little flower tea that Jingyue kept would have been long gone.

"I heard the fragrance and benefits of the scented tea from the second lady, and drinking this cup of green tea at this time will not taste good. Why, the second lady still wants to keep her secrets, and she is not willing to give out good things to entertain guests?" Tang Ao is the same as Tang Min She has a temperament and speaks more straightforwardly and cutely, or else people would say "It's not like the family doesn't come into the house"!

"Mr. Tang was joking. Since Jingyue said that she would entertain everyone with three courses of tea, she would not break her promise. However, there were relatively few scented teas baked back then, and I didn't have any tea sets here, so the color or aroma of the scented tea may be different. , and now I can only serve you a drink." Jingyue said truthfully.

Tang Ao is impatient, he quickly said: "It's okay, let's try it first!"

Li Yuan looked at his friend's anxious look, and said, "Tang Ao, you have to drink tea slowly. Do you think it's like drinking water like you usually drink? You really don't understand elegance. You might as well be a soldier like me." chuff!"

Tang Ao squinted at Li Yuan, snorted and said, "What is elegant and not elegant? Tea is meant to be drunk. You have your preferences, and I have my own way of drinking. Didn't you hear sister Yue'er say that tea is very delicious?" Is there less? Wait a minute, there is no more to drink! Sister Yue'er, do you think Brother Ao is right?" Tang Ao directly upgraded Jingyue from "Second Miss Song" to "Sister Yue'er", and upgraded himself from " Tang Gongzi" was upgraded to "Brother Ao", regardless of whether it was a bit abrupt or not.

Jingyue didn't care either, she thought that Tang Ao's temperament was actually very similar to Song Jingkuan's. Maybe speaking straightforwardly would offend others, but it was rare in front of friends.A man who doesn't like to hide and is brave enough to express his true inner thoughts is naturally easy to get close to.

"Brother Ao is right, ha ha! Leng Yu, take out the three kinds of scented teas I have treasured, and boil them with water. I will personally make tea for you brothers and sisters!" Jingyue also became interested in making tea at this time. , her favorite thing in life is entertaining friends.

"Second Miss Song, what do you mean by the six meals?" Gu Zicheng was not as thick-skinned as Tang Ao, and he still treated Jingyue well, but he still had a lot of questions to ask.

Facing such a studious and inquisitive person, how could Jingyue let him down!Therefore, Jingyue explained to everyone: "The six meals I entertained you today, I originally thought it would be deep-fried dough sticks, bean porridge, whole fish feast, special dumplings, tofu feast, chestnut rice, and charcoal barbecue, but unfortunately the deep-fried dough sticks will be served first. Fortunately, there is not enough time now, and breakfast is already ready, so you can make do with this first meal, and I will definitely make up for you in the future!"

"Fried sticks? What is that? Why have I never heard of it!" Tang Ao looked at Jingyue suspiciously and asked.

Jingyue explained to him tirelessly: "Youtiao is actually a kind of deep-fried breakfast pasta. It is very crunchy and tough. It is delicious in the world when served with soy milk or porridge, as well as light side dishes." Thinking of the most commonly eaten breakfast in modern times, the gluttons in my stomach are also seduced.

When other people saw Jingyue talking about the food like "fried dough sticks", a look of longing appeared on her face, which showed that she had eaten it and it must be very delicious. It seems that this time I went here by mistake during hunting. It really doesn't hurt. I just don't know if what she said is true or false, is there some exaggeration in her words?You know, Song Jia Jingyue was a fool before, can you believe what she says now?

Facts speak louder than words. After everyone quickly finished the breakfast served by Tong Shi and Leng Yu, at the request of Jingyue, they rinsed their mouths one by one, and then sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, Surround Jingyue at the stone table and watch her brew the scented tea just mentioned for them.

After Jingyue simply washed the teacup and saucer with boiling water, she took out a certain amount of jasmine tea with a small spoon and put it into the white teacup. Cover the tea lid tightly.After that, she brewed sweet-scented osmanthus tea and white orchid tea in the same way.

When everyone lifted the tea cover, the three kinds of tea aromas, namely jasmine, osmanthus, and brandy stimulated everyone's sense of smell. Even Tang Ao, who always drinks tea like water, can't Close your eyes and take a deep breath of the tea, savoring it carefully.

"Sweet, really fragrant! I have never seen such a tea with bright color and long fragrance in my life. It is the best, the absolute best!" Gu Zicheng brought a cup of jasmine tea to his nose, reluctant to take a sip for a long time.
