Chapter 72 Chapter Thirteen Chinese Tea People

At night, the sound of the sea breeze and waves was all outside the house, and everyone woke up quickly.I'm still thinking about the three-on-three comparison, Mu Qingxiang against the eldest uncle, the second cousin against the big cousin, and me against the little cousin?How did she know that Mu Qingxiang's head was broken, so she went out and said to her uncle: "There is no need for three against three, Lu Jianxin alone is enough, as long as he wins, don't forget your promise." As soon as these words came out, the sea breeze at night poured into the spacious main hall, and my heart was completely chilled.Which onion do I count, let alone one-on-three, even if it is three-on-three, I have no confidence.The eldest uncle also seemed very surprised. He thought he had heard it wrong, and it took him a while to believe his ears.Mu Qingxiang is always so unexpected. It's her business that she is good. She can do the task of one against three, so why push me to the battlefield.My uncle deliberately didn't want to tell us the whereabouts of the ancient city of Yuequan, so he immediately agreed without giving me a chance to go back on my word.

When Mu Qingxiang returned to our side, I quickly asked, "What are you doing, do you not want to find Yuequan Ancient City anymore?" The second cousin also saw that I was not capable enough, so he was puzzled: "Yeah, I'm afraid my cousin can't do it, my dad is not a small role." Mu Qingxiang didn't know how to repent, she never admitted her mistakes, she said: "You can't be protected all the time. Going to the ancient city of Yuequan in the future will be a thousand times more dangerous than before. The attitude is the most important. Besides, I believe you have already learned A lot, you won't lose this time, take this as your test."

After hearing this pile of truths, I was immediately dizzy: "Really, don't be kidding, why don't you tell me now, what is the origin of those three boxes of tea. Surely you can figure it out right away?" Sure enough, Mu Qingxiang said indifferently: "This time I will not help you anyway, you can only rely on yourself, think about what you have learned and seen before! In fact, you can handle it completely, don't forget, you You have been resting in place, but others are still running, if I am no longer by your side, and others cannot help you, what should you do?"

The little cousin and big cousin sitting opposite were waiting to watch a good show, and the uncle didn't even bother to look at me. Under such circumstances, I was about to collapse, so let's put aside the principles of life.Among the things I have learned, there is no skill in tasting tea. I have not learned how to judge the place of origin, age, and water source.But Mu Qingxiang took the initiative and took care of a mess for me, and in a few quarters of an hour, she should lose all face. I was speechless, the overall situation was settled, so I had no choice but to listen to Mu Qingxiang and go all out.If you win, then thank God, if you lose, then blame Mu Qingxiang.The second cousin was not optimistic about my ability. He was a little disappointed and thought he could help, but who knew he could just sit on the sidelines.Mu Qingxiang looked at me inscrutablely, not knowing whether she was worried about me or believed in me.

At the end of the sentence, Mu Qingxiang threw another bomb: "I'll go back to my room to rest first, and I'll leave this place to you." Before I could react, Mu Qingxiang had already walked out of the main hall without looking back, and went back to her room for a good night's sleep.I was stunned in disbelief, Mu Qingxiang was bought by my uncle, let alone let me fight three against one, and now I went to rest with peace of mind, at least I stayed by the side to guide me. When the little cousin saw Mu Qingxiang leave, she sneered and said: "Why, the helper lost all confidence and ran away in fright. I think you should admit defeat now, so as not to be embarrassing all of a sudden."

"Yuwei, be polite!" My second cousin defended me. The little cousin said displeasedly: "Second brother, don't you think it's shameful enough to put your hot face on your cold butt? If you run over to help, they don't appreciate it." Listening to my little cousin's sarcastic remarks, I didn't get angry, but felt that she was a little sad.No matter what, this competition must be accepted, Mu Qingxiang is right, I can't always rely on her, the only way to do everything is to rely on myself.Since I was a child, I have often listened to my grandfather talk about tea and witnessed several large-scale tea battles with my own eyes. Later, I moved back to the mainland. It is not the state of ignorance of tea.More importantly, I have already memorized the disabled scriptures, but none of my uncle's family has read the contents of the disabled scriptures.

While Huang Dejun was boiling the water, I hurriedly closed my eyes and rested my mind, recalling the content of the Canon and the skills I learned recently.The big cousin and the little cousin sat opposite each other and whispered, as if they were discussing what kind of tea those three boxes of tea were.The eldest uncle also closed his eyes in the seat, as if he had the chance to win, and he was not worried at all.Old Yan had just cleaned up the dead chickens, and as soon as he entered the main hall, he stood next to his uncle and whispered a few words. Finally, Huang Dejun boiled the water and used three different pots of water together.Huang Dejun wrote down the water used in each pot and put it on the mahogany table, waiting for the final announcement.At the same time, Huang Dejun took the tea leaves from the three boxes respectively, and brought out several bowls of tea soup after brewing them.

The sea breeze blew the smell of tea around. I thought I would be flustered, but I didn't expect it to be so calm.When I was young, I had admiration and curiosity for my grandfather, confusion for my father, and responsibility for Liao's second child. These feelings were intertwined. I knew that I could not lose, I must win, I must win! Huang Dejun walked back and forth in the main hall, and he brought tea bowls to everyone's hands, except the second cousin and Lao Yan.When I took the tea bowl, I suddenly realized that Huang Dejun was looking at me strangely, as if he had something to say.But this scene flashed by, and after Huang Dejun distributed the tea bowls, he sat back down again.I can't forget Huang Dejun's eyes in my mind, and I can't help being a little distracted. It's a pity that he can't speak, otherwise I would have asked him in a low voice what's wrong.

Just as I withdrew my thoughts, picked up the saucer, gently picked up the tea bowl to smell the tea, but found a few words on the saucer.In an instant, I suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Huang Dejun had a problem with his eyesight. It turned out that he had left me a message on the side of the saucer.Since Huang Dejun was so careful, it must not be appropriate to mention this matter in front of everyone, so he reluctantly chose this method.The saucer was not big, and the number of words that could be written was limited. Two words were written on it with black ink: bad guy, and an arrow.

Looking at the characters on the saucer, I suddenly wanted to laugh. It’s fine to write bad guys, but who is the arrow pointing to?Opposite him sat the little cousin, the big cousin, the big uncle, Lao Yan, and Huang Dejun himself, who is the bad guy.But I have already seen that the interpersonal relationship in Huangcuoli is not right, and I am afraid that Huang Dejun is also reluctantly serving this group of people.But in my eyes, except for the second cousin, they are all bad people. I picked up the tea bowl, pretended to smell the fragrance, and then secretly winked at Huang Dejun, indicating that I had received his warning.The second cousin saw me holding the tea bowl and smelling it for a long time, so he worriedly asked me what was wrong.I can understand Huang Dejun's painstaking efforts. Since he is so cautious, he definitely doesn't want to be discovered by others, so I hurriedly put down the tea bowl and covered the writing on the saucer.

Huang Dejun brought me three bowls of tea. The uncle was worried that the second cousin would help me secretly, so he asked the second cousin to sit next to the younger cousin.The second cousin went back reluctantly, and encouraged me before leaving, but this behavior was tantamount to saying that I would definitely not win.Uncle and the others taste one bowl of tea each, and I have to taste three bowls each, so it is a little harder than them.The pen and paper is next to the chair. After drinking, you have to write down the type of tea, the year, and the water source. The time required is also one of the keys to winning or losing. I can't tell all kinds of information about the tea soup just by smelling it, so I can only taste it slowly when the tea soup is not so hot.However, after the uncle got the tea bowl, he sniffed it, his brows did not relax, but were furrowed.The little cousin and the big cousin didn't smile either, and they were also very confused, as if they didn't know the origin of the things in the tea bowl.Even the uncle asked Huang Dejun if he didn't have the tea in the three boxes.But Huang Dejun kept shaking his head and told everyone with gestures that he was using those three boxes of tea. Seeing this scene, I couldn't help but wonder, these tea leaves are so difficult to guess, even my uncle can't do it? I took a sip in a daze, and the soup in the tea bowl was really different, completely different from the tea I had drunk before.I dare not say that I have drunk all kinds of tea in the world, but at least I have drunk a lot of tea because of my grandfather when I was in Malaysia.However, the taste is a bit familiar, although I will not be able to judge it for a while, but I must have drank it when I was in Nanyang. While thinking, the experience in Malaysia that year was replayed in my mind like a movie.When doing business in Nanyang, the Chinese encountered unimaginable discrimination, but my grandfather was always unyielding.I remember that although the teahouse opened by my grandfather was large and famous, it was also smashed by others.It is even worse for other Chinese tea people. Their tea houses are small, but it doesn’t matter. Some of them were even murdered. Once, a Chinese tea man came to my grandfather, hoping to help him because he was also Chinese, because his tea sales channels were seized in the Philippines.This tea person is already a Malaysian citizen, but his status is different from that of the locals, so it is difficult to be treated fairly.In this case, the local government does not care about it, and even encourages it secretly. In 1998, the massacre of Chinese people in Indonesia occurred. Many Chinese tea masters and their families were killed. Some of them had become Indonesian citizens, but they were not immune. On this point, I admire my uncle's style a lot. He has become unreasonable, and because he has been in Nanyang, he must be strong, otherwise he can only become a bereaved dog.Because of these things, my uncle recruited Lao Yan, a killer from the Philippines, to let him protect him forever, otherwise my uncle would have been the victim of a knife.Few Chinese tea producers can grow locally. Although the quality of Chinese tea is good, they just don't buy it. Thinking of this, I quickly came back to my senses, now is not the time for patriotic outbursts, I must immediately judge all the correct information about the tea.I drank a few sips, the tea soup lingered in my mouth, there was a slight bitterness, the aroma was not obvious, and the tea leaves were old and stiff.Uncle and the three of them didn't start writing, they were drinking tea all the time, and none of them could detect the origin of the tea.I took another sip suspiciously, and the blurry picture in my mind gradually became clear. I must have drunk this taste in Malaysia, and my grandfather once gave it to me!More importantly, the Canon also mentioned the contents of the teacup, and left a way of judging it. At this moment, I took a deep breath and couldn't help being extremely excited. No wonder the uncle and the others couldn't make a judgment for a while, so it turned out to be the case!
