Chapter 68 Chapter 9 Knowing Tea with Eyes Closed

There were actually a lot of fish scales thrown under the bed, and they were all peeled off from the body. A large piece of them all stuck together, like a piece of human skin.If I didn't know that my uncle is human, I would have thought it was a ghost who was drawing the skin.With so many fish scales piled up next to me and touching my body, I couldn't help but tremble all over, feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit.I made a rough estimate, if the dozen or so pieces of fish scales had sloughed off my uncle's body in the past few days, then he would have lost all his skin. My uncle kept walking back and forth in the room, never going out, and I could only continue to lie under the bed because I was worried.I nervously prayed that my uncle would take a shit, or eat, so that I would have time to escape the room.At the same time, I also regret that if I had listened to Mu Qingxiang, I would have just asked my uncle if I wanted it, and I have made it so embarrassing now.But my uncle definitely refused to give me tea, how could that elm-headed Mu Qingxiang understand.

I stole ten kinds of tea, and there were five white porcelain bottles in the box, each containing a kind of tea.When the time comes, you only need Mu Qingxiang to tell me in advance, if you want to guess the type, year, and place of origin of the tea, it will not be difficult to guess from these ten kinds of tea, it can be regarded as a quick way.Strictly speaking, this is another cheating method, but it is also forced to do this trick.Otherwise, as Mu Qingxiang said, it takes several years or decades of practice to reach that level.Finally, the uncle had had enough rest, but he was about to go out when the old Yan who didn't know what to do came in at this moment.I lay on my stomach with a sore back and a sore back, thinking that I must not sneeze or fart at this time.Lao Yan kills people without blinking an eye. If they close the door and kill me again, there is really no chance to call for help.It's been a day since I moved in, and Lao Yan hasn't said much, and has been reticent.At this time, the uncle had already put on his clothes, and his legs covered with fish scales had been covered by his trousers.

As soon as Lao Yan came in, he asked: "Have you told anyone your secret? I always feel that some of them have noticed it?" The uncle hesitated for a while, and replied uncertainly: "Probably not, I have been very careful, no one will know." Old Yan worried: "Yesterday Yulei asked me what the will is like." The uncle chuckled lightly: "My eldest son still dares to ask you, it seems that he really only thinks about that little family property." "Yeah, I'm afraid the three of them didn't expect what the content of the will would be like." Lao Yan also laughed.

"But having said that, who threw that chicken? Is it a hint?" The uncle was very confused. "I don't know, so I asked you just now, will your secret be known by others." Old Yan lowered his voice. The uncle thought about it for a while, and said with certainty: "Surely not, I've been keeping my mouth shut, who would know?" Old Yan asked again: "Then why is your nephew looking for you? If he really wins you in four days, how can you tell him about the ancient city of Yuequan? He will definitely not believe it." The uncle snorted contemptuously: "Even if Lu Liancheng comes back alive, he won't be able to defeat me, let alone that brat Lu Jianxin!"

Lying under the bed, I was furious when I heard this. It turned out that my uncle didn't want to tell me the truth from the bottom of his heart, so he acted in this play.Just now I felt guilty and blamed myself for stealing things, but now I am so angry that I wish I could steal all of my uncle's underwear.But listening to the conversation between Lao Yan and his uncle, they seem to have an unknown secret, and they don't want anyone to know, including the three cousins.There is also the will of the uncle, how did he make it? Judging from his tone, it seems to be an unexpected result.The dead chicken seemed to have nothing to do with them. They didn't know who did it. Even the uncle and Lao Yan were puzzled.

Lao Yan chatted very openly with his uncle in private, unlike in the outside world, they are both master and servant, Lao Yan almost always shows his face to others, never saying a word.The two old men chatted for a long time, and finally the uncle was crying, so they went out one after the other.Before going out, my uncle actually threw the fish scale skin that he had torn off in the bath under the bed, hitting me right in the face.I cursed in my heart, fuck, did you already know that I was under the bed, so you threw it like this on purpose.Looking at so many fish scale skins under the bed, I thought maybe my uncle had been hiding like this all along, and he must have not found me.

After they went out, I couldn't wait to crawl out. The smell of fish scales under the bed made me almost suffocate. As soon as I came out, I took a deep breath.The uncle locked the door when he went out, but he didn't allow the three cousins ​​to lock it, and he didn't allow us to lock it, and took the lock away.This is how he is, he is very suspicious, he is deeply afraid that someone will murder him for money, and if he has money to a certain extent, he is like a fox.Fortunately, the lock in Huangcuo can be opened from the inside or the outside. After I slipped out, I immediately closed the door and escaped without anyone noticing.

Mu Qingxiang has been waiting for me, I came back after so long, she did not leave, she has been sitting in the room quietly waiting for me.I didn't dare to tell Mu Qingxiang that the tea was stolen, and she didn't ask, she just asked me why I was so flustered.In fact, I really wanted to tell Mu Qingxiang how terrifying the fish scales on Uncle's body were, but I would reveal my secrets as soon as I said it, so I had to keep it to myself.I also changed the topic and asked Mu Qingxiang to teach me right away, now time is money, there is no need to delay any longer.Who knew that Mu Qingxiang said she was going to the kitchen to boil water, and then asked me to follow, so that she could explain it to me step by step.

I thought it was too bad, the tea was stolen, if I swaggered to the kitchen to make tea, it would be fine if my uncle found out.In order to cover it up, I had to find an excuse, saying that it would be best to go to the kitchen to make tea in the middle of the night, so as not to be discovered by others.It's a small matter, of course we can't be discovered by others. If we don't know our strategic policy, we're doomed.Mu Qingxiang couldn't understand my rhetoric, and said that I was trying to be lazy, but she didn't force me, she just said that it should be at night.

I was just happy that the trick was successful, but Mu Qingxiang said: "Since the tea is only brewed at night, I will tell you the type and year of the tea, and some common sense. If you don't know anything, you should also ask." I hate class the most, but Mu Qingxiang has accommodated me so much, so I sat down and listened to Mu Qingxiang popularize knowledge to me.Mu Qingxiang first said that before the Ming Dynasty in China, green tea was the main product. Later, it gradually developed into green tea, black tea, oolong tea, white tea, and black tea. Tea.I thought there were five kinds of stolen tea, but Mu Qingxiang said there were only three kinds, including Suzhou Biluochun and Tianchi tea, and Yunnan Pu'er tea. Pu'er tea is divided into three types: 30-year-old, 40-year-old, and 50-year-old tea.

Both Biluochun and Tianchi teas are green teas, and this kind of tea should not be kept for a long time, so when fighting tea, the age of preservation will not be considered, only the place of origin will be considered.And if you are not an expert, it is best not to boil green tea, because high temperature usually destroys the nutrition and taste of green tea. Most people generally choose to brew, but real experts like to use boiling.Like the last time I was fighting tea in Qingdao, the tea I used was purple bamboo shoot tea. If the heat was not well controlled, the taste of the tea would have changed a long time ago. Pu-erh tea is black tea. This kind of tea gets better and better with age, so brewing is not enough. If you want to drink the real tea fragrance, you must use cooking method.Mu Qingxiang said that I definitely couldn't learn it in a short time. At that time, there was indeed a quick way to recognize tea with eyes closed, that is, to inhale a piece of tea when tasting tea.If the tea leaves are smooth and tender, it is green tea; if the tea leaves are hard and tongue-piercing, it is black tea; If there is a bitter taste after rubbing, it is black tea; if the tea leaves are as soft as water soup, and the taste is sweet when you drink it, it is white tea. Mu Qingxiang told me the truth: "Nowadays a lot of tea is brewed in tea bags. You can't drink the tea, but your uncle will never use that clumsy method. Usually they just smell it directly, but this The method requires a long practice to cultivate the feeling. Now you can only take a shortcut. First, suck a piece of tea into your mouth and use your tongue to feel the essence of the tea. If you still can’t feel it with your tongue, then you can bite the tea with your teeth. Then feel it with your tongue." I wondered: "Why is it so difficult? I think you are not very old. Did you start drinking tea in the womb?" Mu Qingxiang always ignored my banter, she said to herself: "I believe you can distinguish the taste of green tea and Pu'er tea, but the types of green tea may be a bit difficult for you. Biluochun and Tianchi tea are both green tea, but they There is still a difference in the tea leaves, because the growth environment is different. The leaves of Biluochun tea are a little thinner than Tianchi tea, but the leaves of Tianchi tea are more compact and not easy to fall into pieces. You can feel it after comparing carefully. .” "What about Pu'er tea? I can taste its taste, but how can I tell the age? Could it be that you use your tongue to feel the difference in the leaves?" I asked confusedly. "It's not enough to just drink tea leaves. You need to drink tea leaves of many years to tell the difference, but there is also a quick way." Mu Qingxiang told me. I was excited, and asked anxiously: "What method is it, tell me quickly!" At this point, Mu Qingxiang refused to continue, she said that this method must be explained clearly when the tea is brewed.I know that there is a quick way, so I feel at ease. If Mu Qingxiang refuses to talk about it now, I won’t talk about it. Anyway, I can learn it quickly, so I don’t need to worry too much.At night, we sneaked to the kitchen to borrow a fire and study slowly.I don't know why, but I am very happy, as if I am happy to be so sneaky. I was thinking wildly, but Mu Qingxiang asked me if I had finished taking the types of tea brought by my uncle. I said with certainty that there were only five bottles, and I must have taken them all, and I would never miss them.As soon as I finished speaking, Mu Qingxiang thought about the five tea leaves, and at the end, she told me that these tea leaves were very strange.
