Chapter 123: Our own people are the ones who sabotage us

Su Xing's movements in making tea just now were smooth and flowing, which was pleasing to the eye. When he was explaining, he was neither impatient nor anxious, and his logic was clear, making it easy for people to follow him.

Grandpa Su looked at his confident and dazzling granddaughter, and his eyes became a little hot...

Mr. Zheng reached out and patted his old friend on the shoulder, feeling relieved and a little envious at the same time...

Uncle Su also looked at Su Xing in a daze. It turned out that his niece had this side...

Su Yu... didn't know why, she felt like crying...

At this moment, Su Xing prepared tea for the man with pigtails and other four people and invited them to drink it.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the oily, bright yellow tea soup.

The boy with pigtails looked at the color of the tea soup, frowned and curled his lips, "Why is it this color? Is this the color that black tea should have?"

Su Xing explained: "The six major types of tea are not distinguished by the color of the tea soup, but by the craftsmanship. Black tea does not necessarily have to have a red tea soup. Some people pursue that bright and rich red tea soup and will keep the cup sitting for a long time, letting the tea leaves soak in water. With that method, no matter how good the black tea is, it will not taste good."

Many people's eyes involuntarily turned to the bowl of black tea that the pigtailed boy had brewed earlier...

There was still half a bowl of tea soaked in the covered bowl, and the color of the tea was obviously much darker than the one brewed by the little girl...

Doesn’t it turn out that black tea doesn’t need to be brewed into a deep red tea soup? ?

Many people looked surprised. When they usually brew black tea, they put the tea into boiling water and keep steeping it until it turns into a deep red color. It seems that only that color of tea can be considered black tea...

It turns out they have been doing it wrong all along...

At this time, the girl in white picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said in surprise: "It's really not bitter? And it smells so good! It's a bit like... like the smell of roasted sweet potatoes!"

Su Xing laughed, "Sister, try drinking it again, what else can you taste?"

The girl in white took another sip of the tea, savored it carefully, and said, "It seems... a little sweet like honey?"

Su Xing said: "The basic aroma of many black teas is potato aroma, which is the taste of roasted sweet potatoes, but the better the quality of the tea, the richer the natural aroma of the tea itself, such as honey aroma, fruit aroma, floral aroma, etc. Some premium black teas even give people the feeling of drinking nectar."

Really? ?

Many people expressed some doubts, as they had never tasted black tea like that...

The girl in blue hesitated for a moment, then picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Huh? It's really not bitter..."

The boy with a crew cut also took a sip of the tea brewed by Su Xing, smacking his lips. Hmm, it was not bitter, but rather had some fragrance, but he couldn't tell what the fragrance was.

He drank the tea in one gulp, then suddenly reached out to take the tea that the pigtailed man had brewed earlier, poured himself a cup, took a sip, and then...

"Puff..." He spat out a mouthful of tea, his expression twisted! He grinned and said, "Sure enough, there is a big difference!"

The boy with pigtails: “…”

A person from the same family slaps himself in the face? That's too much!

Hey!

A low laugh suddenly rang out around them...

The boy with pigtails had a dark face, and he took a sip of the teacup as if in a huff...

Su Xing looked at the boy with pigtails and asked, "How is it? Is it bitter? Astringent? Hard to drink?"

The boy with pigtails pressed his lips into a straight line and remained silent.

Su Xing smiled and didn't force the boy with pigtails to speak.

She made another cup of tea and shared it with them.

The girl in white picked up the teacup first. She took a few sips, and then her eyes suddenly lit up!

"Hey? I tasted something sweet! It's on both sides of my tongue! It's amazing!"

The girl in blue and the boy with a crew cut were both skeptical. They also picked up the teacups and took a few more sips.

"It seems a bit sweet..."

"It seems a little bit..."

Su Xing smiled and said, "As long as it's not too low quality black tea, it will be sweet after brewing. However, the aftertaste of sweetness is sour, so some black teas will taste a bit sour after being too sweet. However, the better the quality of the black tea, the less obvious the sour taste. Some good teas can basically make tea drinkers feel no sourness at all."

The boy with pigtails drank another cup of tea and continued to remain silent...

Some tourists who were watching eagerly said: I feel like drinking a little bit, what’s going on…

The girl in white suddenly looked at the cup of green tea she had before and asked Su Xing: "I ordered this cup of green tea. I thought it tasted good before, but it became unpalatable after I added water. Was it... brewed wrong?"

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the boy with pigtails...

The boy with pigtails: “…”

Hey!

His own people are here to tear him down again? ?

It’s not over, right?

Su Xing said, "The second batch of water for your cup of green tea is 80 degrees water, which is not suitable for brewing green tea. For brewing green tea, the water temperature should be controlled at 85- degrees. Green tea is unfermented tea, and its polyphenol content is higher than fermented tea. If the water temperature is high, it will easily become bitter. Green tea does not need to be boiled, but it will become bitter if it is steeped for a long time. In addition, green tea leaves are mostly fresh and tender. If you use boiling water to brew them, they will be 'cooked' in layman's terms."

The girl in white nodded, "So that's how it is..."

Many people around nodded subconsciously: So that's how it is...

"Also, when drinking green tea, don't put too much tea in. If you're drinking alone, 2-3 grams of tea is enough in a glass like this. Green tea is quite cold, so people with a bad stomach should drink less. It's also not recommended to drink it during meals."

Last time Zheng Fei treated us to a meal, the Lu'an Guapian tea from that private restaurant was actually quite good. Unfortunately, the waiter didn't know how to brew it, so he just used boiling water to brew it, and the amount of tea he put in was a bit too much, so the taste wasn't that good.

Moreover, if Zheng Fei hadn't insisted on "toasting" her with tea instead of wine, she actually didn't want to drink green tea during the meal...

The girl in white exclaimed, "Wow!" and said, "So there are so many things to pay attention to..."

The pigtailed boy spoke again, "It's just a cup of tea, is it necessary to be so troublesome? And you have to use so many tea sets, it's not convenient at all. Everyone is usually very busy, who has time for these things?"

This statement has also been recognized by many people.

Usually everyone is busy with life, and not many people have the time and leisure to sit down and slowly make and drink tea.

Su Xing looked at the pigtailed boy and asked with a chuckle, "Didn't you admire Japanese tea ceremony before? Their so-called tea ceremony culture now focuses more on form. It's much more complicated than my method of brewing tea just to make it taste good, right? Why don't you think their tea ceremony culture is troublesome?"

The boy with pigtails was left speechless.

Laughter rang out again around.

Su Xing changed the subject and said, "Actually, what you said is not wrong. Not everyone who wants to drink tea has the time to sit down and slowly brew tea with tea sets. That's why there are quick cups for sale now. Those portable tea sets can be taken wherever you go. Paired with the portable small-packaged teas from many tea brands, you can brew tea anytime, anywhere when you are on a business trip, traveling, or in the office. By the way, there is also a more convenient teacup called a tea-water separation cup. With a cup in hand, you no longer have to worry about some tea being spoiled by sitting in the cup for too long..."

The pigtailed man: "..."

Many people around took out their phones and started searching for the cup Su Xing mentioned on Taobao...
