seek immortality

Chapter 916

Shang Liujia put down the empty tea cup and said, "Okay, let me talk about it."

Tang Chengnian and the other three also put down the teacup like him, since the teacup was empty anyway, it seemed strange to hold it in their hands.

But Ms. Wang did an extra procedure, which was to help everyone clean up the teacups and then fill them with clean water.

This is for them to moisten their throats later. By the way, the taste of the previous tea will be cleared so as not to affect the next taste.

This procedure was as rigorous as testing dishes. Tang Chengnian had only heard of it before, but after testing it himself, he realized that it was quite interesting.Although she won't think so after a while, Tang Chengnian still finds it interesting and enjoyable now.

He reached for the jar containing plum blossom petals, took out a petal, and chewed it carefully.

After savoring it for a while, Shang Liujia said: "Actually, I have also tasted dim sum made from plum blossom petals before. Although it has a sweet taste, I can tell that the taste is definitely not from plum blossom, but made from sugar. Yes, the unique sweetness of ordinary sugar. Therefore, I guess the taste of the plum blossom petals outside may not be the same as here, the plum blossom petals here are not only plum blossom aroma and a little bitter, but a bit sweet and sour."

After saying this, Shang Liujia seemed to feel a little unbelievable.

But he glanced at Miss Wang and knew that he was right. It seemed that the plum blossoms planted on this mountain were different from those outside.

Sure enough, Miss Wang nodded quickly, and said proudly: "Yes, the plum blossoms here have bloomed many times. I have used special cultivation methods, which are all secret books handed down from ancient times. Perhaps it is also because of this The feng shui on the mountain is good, and when every plant is improved, it goes smoothly."

"I see, then I can understand." Shang Liujia nodded.

He really felt that there was something wrong with his taste buds before, and he took a piece of plum blossom petals to try, only then did he realize that it was not his taste buds that were faulty, but the plum blossom petals here did have an unusual taste.Of course, it is still "plum blossom" itself. Although the sweet and sour taste has been increased and the bitter taste has been reduced, it has not been reversed into other flavors. Speaking of it, it is closer to plums than apples and oranges.

"As for the fruit..." Shang Liujia pointed to the dried plum fruit and said, "They come from the same source and have a similar taste, so they are soaked in tea, which makes this scented tea have the same sweet and sour taste. Except for dried fruit and Yuluochun, there is nothing else added here, so the taste is close and natural. Their tastes have been connected together very gently, with a faint fragrance of plum. The most important thing is that Yuluochun Although the aroma has not been taken away, it has not taken over the main role. This is indeed a cup of plum tea, it can be said to be plum tea or plum tea."

"Why don't you call it plum blossom tea? At that time, people who drink it will be surprised and wonder what the smell of dried plums is." Miss Wang showed a rare playful smile. Thinking about it, she likes to use this kind of tea. A neat way to amuse tea lovers a little, and of course, without malice.

Tang Chengnian clasped his hands and laughed, agreeing very much.

She wasn't concerned about whether she understood tea, but she just wanted to join in the fun and thought it would be fun to play like this.

"Then, shall I continue to cook another cup?" Miss Wang looked at Shang Liujia. She was very grateful for Shang Liujia's comment. If he had anything to say, she would definitely listen, but this time Shang Liujia shook his head. Shaking his head, he had already finished what he wanted to say, so naturally he didn't need to add anything, just thinking about the smell of the plum blossom petals had exhausted his energy.

Next, I will try many cups of scented tea, so naturally I shouldn't spend all my time here.

Although the plum blossom tea at the beginning suffered several twists and turns, the final result is very good.

However, the following tea making was not so smooth. Ms. Wang tried several combinations, but all failed.

As for Tang Chengnian, she had already left behind the fun that sprouted not long ago.

No matter how interesting things are done mechanically, people will feel disgusted, no matter how much they liked it before.

She could hardly taste the drink anymore. She always felt... ah, bitter, sour, too sweet... something like this.

And you have to rinse your mouth, and keep gurgling with clean water. If you do it a few times, you will inevitably feel that the muscles in your mouth are going to be numb. I feel quite professional after doing this for a few times. I'm holding on to my face, and my mood is mostly out of - everyone is like this, and I have to continue to hold on, but I don't know that everyone thinks this way, at least, there are more than half of them.

Miss Wang is not tired.

She was neither tired nor alone when she studied the brewing method of those teas, the soaking of flower petals, the cultivation of plants, etc. by herself.Where Miss Wang lived since she was a child, there were only her, her mother, and a large group of servants.Her mother didn't allow her to get close to the servants, and she didn't get close to her herself. In her small world, only the occasional cousin could bring her some warmth.This is the plot of the original novel, and Miss Wang naturally continues this setting in this novel. However, here, as a supporting role, she also gets the opportunity to see her cousin's true face in advance.

However, in this world, she only had a relationship with a man, her cousin, so, after being heartbroken, she came here alone to live in seclusion, and then met Ella.Her mother liked her to keep a distance from people, so she only sent people to help her design gardens and run errands for her to protect her. Besides, her mother was different from the one in the original book, which gave her great support. free.

Because of this, Miss Wang has been defeated repeatedly in doing these things, but because she succeeded in making a kind of plum blossom tea, she is still full of hope, and she always seems to feel that sooner or later she will be rewarded again.

The last scented tea failed again, and Miss Wang calmly changed the tea bowl again, with clear water.

This time the water she used was new again.

"This is well water. It's very cool. It's kept warm with ice jade." Miss Wang took out a light blue jar from her Xumi bag. There was a faint air of cold air floating on the jar.There is a faint sound of water flowing in the air-conditioned package. This jar is obviously special.Thinking about it, it was Miss Wang's mother who found it for her. To be able to find such a precious thing and bring it back is not something a mortal can do.

Ms. Wang was very conflicted: "I think it's good that the well water is cold, but if I boil it in a tea bowl, I'm afraid it won't continue to maintain this temperature. Then, if I choose this well water, it will be gone." Meaning. It has a bit of sweetness in itself, but it is not like rock sugar. It has a bit of sweetness in itself. I think it should add some sourness. So I plan to use these two..."

She ordered two jars to show Tang Chengnian and Shang Liujia.

As for Ella, she knew every jar on the stone table.

"This is the strawberry flower, and this is the strawberry pulp. They brought it from Ella and their Furui Town. I tried it on the mountain and I can feed it. After that, I won't have to go to Furui Town." Ms. Wang explained the strawberry. origin.

After all, the only acquaintances in Furui Town were Ella's abusive stepmother and her two half-sisters.

Ella didn't need or want to see them all the time.

"Strawberry?" Tang Chengnian was very surprised. He really didn't expect to hear this name in such an antique scene.

Strawberry used to be called "oceanberry", which shows that it is an imported product.

However, if you think about it carefully, in this world, the East and the West run side by side, but different continents have different powers. Isn’t a typical Western beauty like Ella sitting in front of them calmly and calmly?Shang Liujia was obviously not surprised. He had traveled to so many places, and he was already used to seeing this type of beauties.

Seeing her puzzled, Shang Liujia thought she had never heard of strawberries.

After all, the situation on Yunze Continent is special. Although there is not completely no communication, the isolation between each other is also slightly serious.

"Sweet and sour, I think you'll like this better than plums," he suggested.

Tang Chengnian nodded and said with a smile: "I know, I just accidentally saw him here."

"Oh, by the way, can I try the taste of this strawberry?" Shang Liujia looked at Miss Wang and asked.

With the lesson from the plum blossom petals just now, he suspected that the taste of the things here was different from that outside, so he naturally wanted to try it first.

"Okay." Miss Wang nodded generously.

While tasting in Shanglijia, Tang Chengnian looked at the jar containing strawberry flowers.

She did know strawberries, but it was the first time she saw strawberry flowers. She really didn't expect that strawberries are so red, but strawberry flowers are snow-white, and occasionally only a few petals are dyed pink in the white.

"It's beautiful." She sighed.

At this time, Shang Liujia had finished eating the strawberries. Sure enough, just as he thought, the strawberries here were different from those outside.

The strawberries outside are all sour and sweet, mainly sweet, but there is also a bit of sourness; but the strawberries here are very red and very ripe. He had this idea just now when he saw the color, and now he has tried the taste himself. ,as expected.

"This kind of strawberry is sweeter." He said vaguely, anyway, as long as Miss Wang realizes it.

Miss Wang nodded and said, "I understand what you mean."

The well water is clear and sweet, and the strawberries are extremely sweet, and the two may conflict.

Among the several scented teas I tried just now, some of them were too sweet and caused the taste to be disgusting.

Pointing to the jar with strawberry flower petals, Miss Wang smiled and said, "You can try this."

Shang Liujia twisted a piece, tasted it, and nodded silently.

The petals of this strawberry flower look a little sour, but the sour taste is the most suitable to match the sweetness.Both the strawberry and the well water are sweet, and it would be appropriate to use strawberry flowers to complement it.

But Miss Wang quickly smiled wryly and shook her head: "Unfortunately, there is still a small problem that has not been resolved."
