tea ceremony inheritance system

Chapter 204

In fact, the ancestors of Grandma Haiwei's natal family were also well-known tea artisans, and their lineage inherited the Chen style tea ordering method.

It is a pity that after the dragon and phoenix tea cake was stopped by the authorities, most of the tea in the world changed to the roasting process instead of the steaming process. The tea method is also slowly lost.

When the last inheritor was dying, he tore the manuscript of "Daguan Tea Theory" that had been passed down for several generations into two, and left half of it for future generations as a thought, and the other half passed it on to disciples with other surnames.

Grandma Haiwei's maiden name is Chen, so what Su Zhongkang holds in his hand is the second half of the book that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Chen family.

"I think Xiao Su watched it with gusto just now." Chen Yingrong, Haiwei's grandmother, said with a smile.

For example, this half of tea theory is all written in classical Chinese, which is difficult to understand, let alone a young man like Su Zhongkang, even she herself can't stand it.

So, when she saw that Su Zhongkang seemed to be clear, she was very happy in her heart.Since she got this cloth bag, she has carried a thought of the Chen family.

If there is a chance, we must restore the glory of Chen's tea ordering method!

That's why she immediately called Su Zhongkang to her home as soon as she heard the news about Xianding Yunwu Tea.

"Do you know what the book is about?" Chen Yingrong looked expectant.

"Don't you know? This is the famous "Tea Theory", also known as "Grand View Tea Theory". However, unfortunately, it is only the second half." Su Zhongkang blurted out.

"Hey, this book is really about tea. I haven't heard you mention it before?" Haiwei asked in surprise.

She only knew that there was a very old book in her grandmother's house, but she didn't expect that the content in it was actually related to tea.

"Wait a minute. The title of this book is quite familiar. I seem to have seen it before when I was looking through tea materials!" Haiwei thought about it again, and found that she seemed to have heard the name before.

"That's right! The rubbings of "Grand View Tea Theory" that appear on the market now are only the first half, and all the missing parts are here!" Su Zhongkang directly searched the information from the Internet and displayed it in front of everyone.

"No way! This is too amazing." Haiting, who had an attitude of having nothing to do with himself, overheard what they were talking about, and immediately pricked up his ears and let out a sound of exclamation.

"Grandma, we've made a fortune! These broken books are priceless." Hai Ting cried out unconsciously, very excited.

Chen Yingrong pretended to be angry and patted Haiting on the head, talking nonsense.

"What a fortune! This is left by the ancestors for future generations, do you want to sell it?"

Haiting pouted, pretending to be pitiful.

"Xiao Su, what do you think?" The old man turned his attention to Su Zhongkang again.

This young man can be seen at a glance, indicating that he is likely to be the descendant of the disciple with a foreign surname who inherited the first half.

She heard from the old man in the family that when the tea was distributed to the two, the disciple with a foreign surname was older and was very interested in tea making, so he later begged the descendants of the Chen family to copy it back and study it by hand.

Therefore, if anyone can see that this is "Grand View Tea Theory", it can only be the lineage of disciples with foreign surnames.

"What do you think?" Su Zhongkang blinked his eyes a few times, and said, "This is a precious handicraft left by our ancestors, especially when it comes to the secrets of tea ordering, I don't think it's appropriate to disclose it. As the saying goes, the law should not be passed on lightly. People don't value things that can be easily obtained, so I don't agree with selling."

In fact, Su Zhongkang did not mention one point, that is, other districts have been isolating the Chinese tea ceremony, thinking that his own is the authentic one.If this manuscript is bought by them, then maybe the method of ordering tea will become theirs, and it is really unclear at that time.

"Things that are too easy to obtain will not be cherished. I agree with this sentence." The more the old man looked at Su Zhongkang, the more pleasing it was to his eyes.This child has a stability beyond his age, and he is only a few years older than Hai Ting, but when the two are compared, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground.

"Have you read these contents before?" With his ability to tell the title of the book at a glance, the old man almost believed that this young man should be the inheritor of the ancestor's disciple with a different surname.

"I've read it, but it's not so detailed!" Su Zhongkang was a little confused. He found that the content recorded in this book was actually more detailed than what the tea ceremony inheritance system gave him.

"Then you know how to order tea?" the old man asked again.

At this time, Su Zhongkang could almost be sure that the ancestor of this old man should be a tea master, otherwise he would not have left such a large fortune.

It's just that Su Zhongkang is a bit pity, why they can't understand these now!
"I'll show you a few reports." Su Zhongkang directly searched out the news that he handed in the dragon and phoenix tea cakes published on the official website of the Tea League.

"Dragon Phoenix Tea Cake? Is it born again?" The old man watched the news, his heart was agitated, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

At the beginning, it was because the dragon and phoenix tea cakes were lost that this tea method was useless.

If dragon and phoenix tea cakes are born, then this tea method should not be hidden any longer.

"I really hope that I can drink such a cup of tea in my lifetime."

"There must be a chance, trust me."

Chen Yingrong looked at Su Zhongkang, who had firm eyes, and felt relieved for no reason.

Su Zhongkang chatted with them for a while, and then he planned to leave and go back.

When he stood up, Chen Yingrong solemnly put down the re-bound cloth bag in Su Zhongkang's hands.

"You, what is this? No way, it's too expensive and I can't bear it." Su Zhongkang was a little frightened. He was still thinking about how to get this from her in a mutually beneficial way. After all, one of his tasks was to collect the entire "Great View on Tea" manuscript, but she didn't expect happiness to come too suddenly, so she planned to give him the manuscript directly.

"In my opinion, you are the most promising talent who can inherit Chen's tea ordering method. Moreover, I sincerely hope that the entire manuscript of "Great View on Tea" can be combined into one." Chen Yingrong said earnestly.

It turned out that she regarded me as the inheritor of another lineage!It was only then that Su Zhongkang suddenly realized that the old man had already talked with them about some past events in detail.

"I gave it to you for selfish reasons." When Chen Yingrong saw that Su Zhongkang didn't dare to accept it with peace of mind, he could only think of another set of excuses.

"..."

"If possible, I hope you can also teach Haiwei or Hai Ting how to make tea. Then, this manuscript will be their apprenticeship ceremony." Chen Yingrong's eyes were extremely calm. If Chen's tea-ordering method can be used in her lifetime If it is reproduced, then what is a mere manuscript?

Hearing that she had talked all the way to this point, Su Zhongkang could only temporarily accept this great gift.
