The Reborn Star, the 80-year-old Lady Became Popular with Her Whole Life

Chapter 23: Chapter 23
Li Xiqin is very busy.Because the recording of the second episode of Smiling Pastoral Life has started again.

This time I came to the tea town of Yunnan to be a standard tea picker.

The guests need to make a catty of tea each.From picking tea, to drying tea, frying tea, and making tea, all the tea-picking machines and tea-frying machines do not exist.

Resolutely put an end to any possibility of laziness.

……

"Mr. Song, can you think about it again?"

"I won't go, a group of celebrities' entertainment show, grandstanding, is simply an insult to the art of tea making!"

The old man frowned and refused fiercely.

"You can't say that," the staff at the tea party persuaded, "Not all programs are like this, and many programs are required to spread traditional culture. Mr. Song, don't you want to spread the traditional craft of tea making? Do more people understand and learn? This is also a way!"

Mr. Song hesitated. This is indeed what he thought in his heart. Nowadays, people are relying more and more on the power of machines. He is afraid that one day the traditional tea-making process will be lost.

"Okay!" He looked at the teacup in his hand and finally agreed!

"But I have one condition..."

……

Story card.

[In the distant tea town of Yunnan, there is such a small mountain village, where generations have lived by picking tea and making tea.

It's just that with the development of the times, more and more people dislike the time-consuming and labor-intensive traditional tea making process, so they switch to making tea by machine.

Only one family has been making a living by making tea by hand.

The male owner of this family is surnamed Qin and the female owner is surnamed Li. They also have two sons and a daughter, all of whom have inherited this traditional craft!

Their daily life starts from picking tea...]

"Grandmother, daddy, go up to the mountain to pick tea!" The youngest daughter, Chan'er, is lively and cute, with two ponytails and local folk costumes, she is indescribably cute.

"Sister, I'm coming!" The eldest son, Xiao Zhuang, was simple and majestic, and walked forward with his sister, carrying a basket on his back.

"Brother, little sister, wait for me."

The second son, Xiaoshuai, is A Peng in the village. He is hardworking and hardworking, and he wins the admiration of the golden flowers as soon as he goes out.

Qin's father and Li's mother followed their children up the mountain.

At first sight, Mama Li was a good tea picker, with her skillful hands flying up and down at an astonishing speed.

Qin's father also speeded up after a short period of inexperience.

The second son, Xiaoshuai, is not only handsome but also capable, which makes the small golden flowers spring up in love.

Although Xiao Jinhuachan'er is not very skilled in movements at a young age, she is patient and well-behaved. Brother A Peng next to her is secretly helping.

The elder and the younger are a little clumsy, and the meticulous work of picking tea is not suitable for him, but he can speak well, and the old ladies next to him are happy to stuff a lot of tea into his basket.

After picking like this for several hours, the family of five returned home with baskets full of tea leaves.

"Mom Qin, is this enough?" Lovina felt that he was justified and could be called Mama Qin.

"One catty of tea needs about five catties of fresh leaves. I think it may not be enough. It's okay. If it's not enough, we'll pick it tomorrow morning!"

"Mom Qin, why do you know everything?"

Jiang Chan is star-eyed.

"Do you know how to make tea?" Qin Jiangnan was also surprised.

Li Xiqin nodded: "I have made green tea at home before, but the Pu'er tea making method should be different. I heard that a master tea maker will be invited this time. I really want to learn from him!"

Cao Can: "Yeah, I also want to study hard."

"You're so good, you're hungry! Mother Qin will cook you something to eat!"

"Mom Qin, I want to eat steamed stuffed buns!" Lovina couldn't care less about eating when he heard about it.

"It's too late to make dough, let me make meatloaf for you?"

"Okay!"

……

Ziliu... the assistant director felt like his saliva was about to flow down.I looked at Director Jia, he was very good, with a deadpan face, worthy of being Director Jia.

In fact, Director Jia was deeply confused.

"Why is Li Xiqin so capable? Could it be that she is a master of agriculture who was delayed by the entertainment industry?"

"This...maybe it's just a coincidence. It's possible that she cut wheat and picked tea at home when she was a child!"

The assistant director said without confidence.

"That's right, then choose a plan that is farther away from her home next time! Hmph, I don't believe it won't trouble her!"

Deputy director:……

Director, is your point wrong?
……

"After finishing greening is the kneading process, which is the key to making Pu-erh tea. Remember... Kneading needs to master the principle of "hot kneading of old leaves, cold kneading of young leaves, heavy kneading of old leaves, light kneading of young leaves" and it is not a one-time process. After completion, re-kneading is required. The purpose of "re-kneading" is actually a supplement to the first "natural inoculation", and the purpose is to complete the primary oxidation of Pu'er tea more thoroughly.

The hot-rolled tea leaves are cloudy in color, yellow-green in color, dry in the mouth, and slightly thick in water path.The soup colors of the tea leaves kneaded by the two methods are completely different.The cold-rolled tea leaves are translucent and yellow-green in color, the soup is fragrant after drinking, and the water path is extremely delicate..."

Song Lao looked at the state of the five people while talking. The black and strong boy was in a daze, completely unable to understand the state, and the little girl also seemed to be trying to listen but did not understand.The taller man frowned in thought, but the handsome young man nodded frequently. He seemed to have understood something, and it was this beautiful girl who listened most seriously.I have been listening and watching very carefully, and sometimes I seem to have suddenly realized.

Song Lao felt that she didn't understand at all, so he pretended to be studying hard.

But Mr. Song still completed his teaching with great professionalism, and even did it himself.

"Do you understand?"

"Understood!" Li Xiqin nodded, the tea making process is different from green tea, but it is also the same, and it is not difficult.

"Oh? Then you try it?"

Song Lao smiled, but he thought in his heart that he would mock this bragging little girl later within a reasonable range.

I only read it once, and said I learned it. Is the little girl now bragging and not drafting?

Soon, however, he was shocked.

The procedure is not bad at all, and the techniques of finishing and kneading are also very proficient, as if they have been practiced thousands of times.

"You...you have learned how to make tea?"

He never believed that she was learning for the first time.

"I learned it when I was young, but I only made green tea!" Li Xiqin said shyly, "It's the first time I make Pu'er, and I'm not very proficient. Please give me some advice from Teacher Song!"

"Okay, okay..." Song Lao was a little excited, "You have done a good job, but there are some things that can be improved a little bit!"

Song Lao changed his aloofness just now, and pulled Li Xiqin to start talking.

The four people left behind: ...

"Mr. Song, we still have to make tea. Would you like to take a look at theirs first?"

Elder Song: All right!

After reading it: The little handsome guy is okay!But still lacking in talent.This father relies entirely on memory, which is too rigid.Little Jinhua, forget it, just play!Zhuang Peng, with hot eyes, spoiled the tea.

You are the one!Aunt Li!
