The next time I came over, I changed to a servant girl. The servant girl was well dressed and looked a little dignified.

She brought everyone a tea-making stove, a complete set of tea sets, as well as tea and samples: "May I ask if you make the tea yourself, or do the tea masters cook it for you?"

"Is there a tea art master?" Zhou Tao was surprised, there was no tea art master when he came last time.

The servant girl said politely: "Yes, the tea artisan's skill in cooking tea is very high, none of us here can match it, and the tea artisan is beautiful, so it's good to have a look."

Zhou Tao waved his hand: "Then invite the tea master."

"Guests, please wait a moment. I'm going to invite the tea art master. If the tea art master is making tea for others, it will take longer." After the maid finished speaking, she stepped back to invite people.

Zhou Tao asked curiously, "Do you know when a tea art master came?"

Wei Yunfeng shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't been here for a long time."

Zhong Zhouyi: "I don't even know, you all know that I basically don't go out."

Wei Yunfeng said patiently: "Just look at it and you'll know."

Shen Ruoxi is not very interested in tea art, she is only interested in herbs and other things, but it is not easy to spoil everyone's temper, she sits quietly and eats the snacks.

Mu Yu sat beside Shen Ruoxi, and when she saw Shen Ruoxi eating, she also ate tea: "This tea seems to be from Wanbaozhai."

Shen Ruoxi blinked: "Is Wanbaozhai famous?"

Mu Yu explained: "Sister Ruoxi doesn't often eat cakes. I don't know. The cakes in Wanbaozhai are the best in the whole capital. Even the empress is full of praise. The business is very good every day."

Shen Ruoxi: "I've never eaten Wanbaozhai's cakes, this is the first time I have."

Zhong Zhouyi said: "It's my husband's dereliction of duty. After I go back, I'll ask someone to buy you a box every day, and you can eat slowly."

Shen Ruoxi quickly said: "No, no, I can make cakes myself, and they will definitely not be worse than the cakes in Wanbaozhai, so you don't need to buy them."

Mu Yu asked expectantly, "Sister Ruoxi is good at making pastries?"

Shen Ruoxi smiled: "Actually, it's not me, it's my maid. In fact, I also brought pastries, but I haven't had time to take them out yet."

Mu Yu: "Sister Ruoxi, can you take it out and try it?"

"Of course." Shen Ruoxi hugged the box they carried with them, and took out two pastries from it, "This is walnut cake and bean crisp."

"I've never seen these pastries before." Mu Yu took a piece of walnut cake and tasted it, "It's crispy and delicate, with a rich peach kernel fragrance, it's delicious."

Shen Ruoxi put the walnut crisps and bean crisps on a plate, put them in the middle of the table, and shared them with everyone: "Then eat more."

Zhong Zhouyi never ate snacks, so he took a piece of bean crisp candy and ate it now: "It's fragrant, sweet, soft, and rich in soybean aroma, which is not bad."

Shen Ruoxi took a piece of bean crisp candy and ate it: "It's delicious."

Seeing that they were eating delicious food, others hurriedly took a piece and tasted it, so the whole pavilion was full of aroma.

Suddenly, a crisp voice came: "Young masters, young ladies, madam, the bride's departure song is here to sing at Ten Thousand Flowers Valley, do you want the little girl to sing for you?"

Everyone looked out of the pavilion, and saw a young girl, wearing a white face scarf, holding a pipa in her hand, standing outside the small pavilion, with her head slightly lowered, looking humble.

Zhou Tao thought for a while and asked, "How much is a song?"

The girl answered honestly: "A song is 25 cents, and I need to give the boss five cents, which is twenty cents."

Zhou Taocai said rudely: "Then you give us a song first, if it sounds good, we will add it."

"Thank you, young master." The girl walked into the small pavilion, sat on the stool at the entrance of the small pavilion, adjusted the strings of the pipa, and then began to play.

The sound of the piano is ethereal and melodious, and the girl's piano skills are very good.

After the song was over, Zhou Tao applauded, and then took out a piece of silver to the girl: "Not bad, you can stay here and play for us, there is no need to go elsewhere."

The girl got up, blessed herself, then sat on the stool and continued to play.

With the music, this small pavilion looks upscale.

At this time, a girl in a blue dress and a blue cloak came to them with the servant girl: "I kept everyone waiting, this is our tea master, Miss Xu Si."

Xu Si saluted: "I have seen the young master, miss, madam."

"Excuse me." Zhou Tao said carelessly, "We've been waiting for you for a long time, so you hurry up and make us tea, and we'll be done with tea in a while."

Xu Si said to the servant girl: "Go and serve some refreshments, I'll make tea for you."

"Yes." Then he exited the pavilion and went to get his things.

Xu Si walked towards the tea table: "I'm sorry, but the little girl will make tea for you."

After she finished speaking, she acted, and saw that she picked up the tongs with her slender fingers, washed the teapot first, and then put it on the stove to boil water...

After a smooth operation, Xu Si poured everyone a cup of tea: "Everyone, please."

Zhong Zhouyi took a sip: "Junshan Silver Needle buds are strong, even in length, pekoe like feathers, and the buds are golden and bright. After brewing, the soup color is apricot yellow and clear. The bottom of the leaves is thick and tender. It does not change its taste after a long time. It belongs to yellow tea. The best of the best, today's first-class, really is a must."

Xu Si's eyes lit up: "Junshan Yinzhen is not a common tea, I didn't expect the young master to be so rare, I really admire the little girl."

Zhong Zhouyi took another sip, then put down his teacup: "I saw it by chance, so I didn't go into it too much."

Shen Ruoxi took a sip of tea. In her mouth, the tea was bitter and astringent, and she couldn't taste the elegance of a literati.

Mu Yu looked at Shen Ruoxi, she was the same, she really didn't know how they judged.

Zhou Tao said at this time: "Young lady is so knowledgeable about the tea ceremony, it really impresses me."

Xu Si said modestly: "The little girl grows tea at home, so she has a better understanding of the tea ceremony, but it's really nothing."

Wei Yunfeng smiled: "Too modest, there are few women in the world who are so proficient in the tea ceremony."

Xu Si raised the teacup and poured tea for everyone: "What's the use of being proficient? When something happens at home, it's not just helplessness."

When everyone heard this, they didn't speak anymore. They just came to drink tea and didn't intend to explore other people's privacy.

Xu Si saw that everyone didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't mention it again, and instead talked about things related to tea, and the atmosphere became harmonious again.

Mu Yu tugged at Wei Yunfeng's sleeve: "Do you want to hear me play the pipa?"

Wei Yunfeng happily said, "Would you know it?"

Mu Yu snorted a little: "You look down on people too much."

Wei Yunfeng looked at Mu Yu with anticipation: "Then you play it, I'll listen."

"Wait." Mu Yu walked towards the girl, "Can I borrow your pipa to play a song?"

"Yes." The girl got up and gave the pipa to Mu Yu, then stepped aside, with a thin body and slightly lowered head, looking even more humble.

Mu Yu sat on the girl's seat, adjusted the strings, and started playing.

Zhou Tao smiled and said, "Brother Wei, the future wife is also versatile."

Wei Yunfeng couldn't help feeling proud: "Listen carefully, don't interrupt."

The small pavilion was quiet, only the sound of Mu Yu playing the pipa, mellow and lively, lyrical and elegant, very pleasant to hear, even those who Shen Ruoxi didn't know how to appreciate vocal music couldn't help liking it.

After the song was over, Shen Ruoxi took the lead in applauding: "It sounds good."

Mu Yu changed the pipa to a girl: "Thank you." Then he walked towards everyone, "I'll talk to you next time." Then he quietly asked Wei Yunfeng, "Does it sound good?"

Wei Yunfeng looked appreciatively: "It sounds good, let me listen to it next time by myself."

Mu Yu nodded shyly: "Okay."

Zhou Tao and the others felt that their hearts were hit again, and they must bring their fiancee with them next time.

After eating cakes, tasting tea, and listening to music, the group got up and walked into the valley. It was time to enjoy the flowers.

Xu Si was going to make tea for others, and said goodbye and left.

The girl who played the pipa stayed in the pavilion, listening to them come back from enjoying the flowers and continue playing.

Zhou Tao really didn't want to be violently attacked, so he proposed to spread out to enjoy the flowers. After discussing, he left with the other two, Shen Ruoxi and Zhong Zhouyi together, Mu Yu and Wei Yunfeng together, and divided into three teams. went in one direction.

Wanhua Valley is very large, covering an area of ​​more than one hundred acres, with various flowers blooming all year round.

Shen Ruoxi and Zhong Zhouyi went to see the camellias.

There are also several varieties of camellias: big agate, golden camellia, hexagonal red, scarlet claw hibiscus, etc. At this time, the red camellias are blooming on the branches, which is simply too beautiful to behold.

When Shen Ruoxi sees plants, she will think about their medicinal value. Regarding camellia, it is also a good Chinese medicinal material for stopping bleeding and cooling blood, dispelling blood stasis and reducing swelling, nourishing lungs and nourishing yin.

Zhong Zhouyi: "I wonder if this camellia can be picked?"

Someone next to him said: "Pick one flower for ten taels of silver, pick two flowers for a hundred taels of silver, and pick three flowers for a thousand taels of silver. Please pick flowers carefully."

Two people: "..."

Naturally, they are not picked later, the flowers are just for viewing, what to do with picking them.

After walking around Wanhua Valley, the two returned to Camellia, Zhong Zhouyi said, "Ruoxi, let me paint for you, okay?"

Shen Ruoxi nodded: "It's been agreed at home, let's do it."

Zhong Zhouyi went to bring their boxes over, and then asked his servants to bring a table, and he was going to paint on the spot.

As soon as he started painting, many people gathered around him.

He wasn't the only one who came here to paint for his wife, but today it was just the two of them, so they all came to watch the fun.

"This lady is really pretty."

"If I had half the face of this lady, I would wake up laughing."

"This husband really loves his wife, and it's really enviable to travel so far to paint for her."

The little girls around whispered, full of envy before speaking.

Shen Ruoxi stood in front of a camellia that bloomed the best. Today she was wearing a goose yellow dress with the same style of cape and matching red hairpin. She showed a beautiful side face in front of the camellia, a fair oval face, The long eyelashes, the bright red lips, every part reveals beauty, which makes people unforgettable at first sight.

Zhong Zhouyi focused on painting, and glanced at Shen Ruoxi from time to time, with tenderness in his eyes.

"If only my husband could draw one for me."

"That madam is so happy. She is beautiful. She is married to such a good-looking husband and loves her so much. I am envious of others."

"Look, her husband's paintings are really beautiful."

The whispering voices around have not stopped.
