Chapter 86
"Old man, are you home?" Xu Fang called out as soon as he entered the courtyard.

The door of the main room opened, and Tan Dan's pretty figure appeared in front of the two of them. Seeing the visitor, Tan Dan said joyfully, "Brother Fang, you are here, come inside."

Tan Qingnian was not as agile as his daughter, so he stepped out of the main room slowly, and greeted with a smile, "Come in and sit down."

The main house in the village is generally a combination of eating and receiving guests.After entering, Xu Fang discovered that there was a thin old man inside.

I thought it was someone who had nothing to do with me, but at this moment, the old man's information suddenly appeared in Xu Fang's mind.

[Character: Zhang Chenghou, 61 years old, a villager of Yuehai Village]

[Secret 1: A master tea maker, his craftsmanship is among the top in China]

[Secret 2: Wild camellia is collected at home, which is of the highest quality.In the eyes of those who love tea and understand tea, it is worth a thousand gold]

[Secret 3: 15 years ago, I went to the mountain to collect herbs, and accidentally fell off the cliff. Everyone thought he was dead, but was later rescued by Tan Qingnian]

Seeing this news, Xu Fang's pupils shrank slightly.The master is among the people, and this is indeed a well-deserved reputation.

"Dandan, pour tea for Xu Fang and this girl." Tan Qingnian ordered.

Tan Dan had good eyesight, took out two porcelain bowls and poured tea for the two of them, and said, "Brother Fang, sister, the family conditions are poor, don't mind."

"It's okay." Xu Fang thanked him and took a sip of tea.

At the entrance of the tea, it is slightly bitter at first, and then quickly returns to sweetness. The fragrance is delicate and full, and the texture is soft, slippery, and slightly sticky.

After drinking the tea, the sweetness in the throat is very deep.

Putting down the porcelain bowl, Xu Fang exclaimed, "Good tea!"

The little old man Zhang Chenghou on the side heard Xu Fang's praise, and immediately took the words proudly: "Young man has vision, this tea is the best tea. The tea tree is on the cliff facing east at the top of the mountain. Purification by wind and rain. The time of picking must be accurate, and the leaf buds must be picked when they are tender to make this kind of tea."

Xu Fang was startled, it turned out that this was Zhang Chenghou's tea.

It is probably to repay Mr. Tan for saving his life, so tea is often sent over.

Xu Fang was amazed by the quality of the tea, and immediately said, "Old man, did you pick this tea?"

"Yes." Zhang Chenghou nodded.

"I don't know if you still have some at home? I want to buy some for my own use. You can set the price." Xu Fang said politely.

"Hey, they're all worthless things. If you want them, I'll get you some." Zhang Chenghou obviously didn't realize the value of his tea, so he said indifferently.

Xu Fang was overjoyed, it seemed that the other party was still there at home, and immediately said: "No hurry, I'll go there together later."

Afterwards, Xu Fang looked at Tan Qingnian again and said, "Mr. Tan, I came here this time to ask you to make another move."

Tan Qingnian had a good impression of Xu Fang. If it wasn't for Xu Fang, his medical skills might not be recognized for the rest of his life.Moreover, Xu Fang also found a good job for his daughter, and he will always remember this kindness in his heart.

Hearing Xu Fang's request, Tan Qingnian smiled and said, "You mean this little girl?"

"Can Old Tan see it?" Xu Fang asked curiously.

"He is in good health, but his skin tone is uneven. Is there a birthmark under the mask?" Tan Qingnian judged.

Xu Fang's heart was shocked. Mr. Tan's medical skills were probably beyond his imagination.

Yi Hongdou beside her was full of anticipation.Her symptoms can be seen in one face-to-face. This medical skill is higher than all the doctors she has seen.Taking a deep breath, Yi Hongdou asked excitedly, "Miraculous doctor, can you cure it?"

Tan Qingnian is at this age and doesn't care about money, but he is quite helpful when others call him a "miracle doctor". He said gently: "Take off the mask and let me see."

Yi Hongdou hesitated, but took off the mask anyway.

Only then did Xu Fang realize that Yi Hongdou's eyes were all bruised and purple, which looked a little scary.

Tan Qingnian looked at it for a while, and said, "Put on the mask first, and I'll give you a try with this medicine."

"Thank you, the genius doctor!" Yi Hongdou's eyes turned red, this was the first time she had heard a doctor say it could be cured in these years.When she went to see a doctor before, the doctor directly said that it was incurable.

Tan Qingnian found tools for curing diseases, took out more than 20 kinds of medicinal materials, crushed them with a pestle, and then took the stove to start decocting them.After these were done, he began to prepare another prescription.

Half an hour later, the medicinal materials in the medicine pot had been boiled into a paste, so Tan Qingnian turned off the heat to let the medicine pot cool down automatically.

Then put the crushed medicinal powder in a bowl, pour boiling water and stir well.

After the two doses of medicine were less hot, Tan Qingnian said, "Girl, drink this bowl of medicine, and don't wear the mask. I have to give you the medicine."

Yi Hongdou didn't doubt whether the medicine was poisonous, and drank it all in one go.

Tan Qingnian evenly spread the ointment in the medicine pot on Yi Hongdou's face, then covered her with a piece of toad skin, and asked her to lie on the bed to rest, then said gently: "The medicine will gradually melt on your skin, wait a while It will take an hour to fully take effect, and then wash your face, if it works, it can be cured, if it doesn’t work, it can’t be cured. But you don’t have to worry too much, there is a good chance of cure.”

Yi Hongdou couldn't speak, and looked at Tan Qingnian gratefully.

Zhang Chenghou on the side watched the excitement, and then said: "Brother Tan, I'll go back first."

"Okay." Tan Qingnian nodded.

Xu Fang was still thinking about Zhang Chenghou's tea, so he got up and said, "Old man, I'll go to your house to look at the tea. Hongdou, you wait here, I'll be back later."

Yi Hongdou blinked in agreement.

Xu Fang and Zhang Chenghou went out, Xu Fang smiled and chatted with him: "Old man, can you still go up the mountain to pick tea now? How hard it is."

"I'm in good health. It's not a big deal to go up the mountain to pick tea!" Zhang Chenghou said proudly.

"How much of the best quality tea do you have at home?" Xu Fang asked.

"The output of this tea is small. I can't harvest 50 catties in total every year. Now it's more than 20 catties." Zhang Chenghou said after calculation.

Hearing this number, Xu Fang was overjoyed. If it was top-quality tea, more than 20 catties is not a small amount.If these tea leaves work well, the value inside is immeasurable.

Zhang Chenghou's house is also a one-story house, the house is not as big as Tan Qingnian's house, the furniture and appliances are relatively old, it looks very poor.

Inviting Xu Fang to come home, Zhang Chenghou brought out a tea poppy.

Han Wan's "Yu Shi Tai Ji" in the Tang Dynasty wrote: "Store in pottery to prevent heat and humidity."

Tea poppy is the porcelain used to store tea in ancient times.

When the lid is opened, a strong tea fragrance comes out, which makes people feel fresh and comfortable.The tea leaves are uniform in size and pure in color, making them high-quality tea at first glance.

"I'll pack some for you." Zhang Chenghou said with a smile.

Xu Fang pondered for a while, there should be a small thirty catties in this jar, and said, "Old man, I want to buy twenty catties, do you think it's okay?"
