Chapter 209: Roasted Tea Leaves



"Girl, please take good care of this Tianyi Lotus plant and don't water it carelessly."

Old Master Tang gave many instructions and looked eagerly at the flowerpot in Tang Tian's arms.

"I see, Grandpa, you're so nagging. Go and do your thing!"

Tang Tian replied impatiently, then turned around and continued chatting with Lingzhi and Chen Xiuzhi, explaining the history of this orchid to them.

Chen Xiuzhi was so happy when she knew that this orchid was given to Tang Tian by Jiang Che.

Although she knew that this orchid was worth a lot of money, it was not as important as having a well-behaved and smart daughter-in-law.

After knowing that the two had established a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, Chen Xiuzhi and Lingzhi became even closer to Tang Tian.

Tang Yuanming sighed with a sour taste in his mouth, shook his head and said, "Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up!"

"Let's go, Grandpa Tang. It's going to be dark if we don't hurry."

Jiang Che said with a smile on his face, holding the dried tea leaves in his hand.

Tang Yuanming glared at Jiang Che and said, "It's you, bad boy, who kidnapped my lovely granddaughter."

They walked out of the door with resentment in their hearts, and Old Pan and Old Sun covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

"Mom, Tang Tian, ​​I'm going to go make some tea and I'll be back in a while."

"Go ahead, it's okay to come back late."

Chen Xiuzhi touched the red cloud in her arms without raising her head and replied casually.

Uh! What's that? Jiang Che felt a little upset.

Tang Tian looked at Jiang Che quietly and smiled playfully.

Yuanbao, Black Bean and Kidney Bean, these little guys were in the arms of Song Huanhuan and Xu Wannian, looking at Jiang Che longingly, hoping that he could take them out to play.

Jiang Che simply ignored it. The tea leaves would be smoky and hot later, and it would be troublesome to carry them with him.

He turned around and caught up with Mr. Tang and his companions, and came to the residence of Mr. Tang and his two companions.

This is a dilapidated farmyard with adobe bricks, a black tile roof, and a small courtyard wall made of rubble stones.

The ground and the walls were covered with thick moss, which was very green and clean, like a thick and soft grass mat.

Only a small path in the middle, paved with stones of different sizes, was not covered with moss, which was clearly distinguished from the moss in the yard. The whole yard looked like a profound landscape painting.

This made Jiang Che think of a poem.

The moss on the steps is green, and the grass is green through the curtains.

This is really a true portrayal of a humble house being not humble at all!

The three old men really know how to enjoy life, and they can be happy even in such conditions.

There are unknown wild flowers planted on both sides of the wall, full of details!

"Three grandpas, you guys are really amazing. I came too late yesterday and didn't see it carefully."

"You've managed to tidy up this shabby house so beautifully. It's just like what the poem says."

Jiang Che walked into the courtyard and praised sincerely.

Hearing Jiang Che's praise, the three old men were very pleased and laughed softly.

Although it is just a temporary stay, for the three old men, living in a good environment can also make them happy.

I don’t know if it’s because Huaxi’s environment is so good, or because Jiang Che’s family’s food is so healthy.

They found that since coming to Huaxi Village, all their previous minor physical ailments had disappeared.

Moreover, I feel energetic and clear-headed every day, as if I were a dozen years younger.

However, there was nothing to do here, so they focused their energy on this small courtyard.

When I had nothing to do, I would look for materials in the village and dig flowers and plants from the mountains, and began to decorate this simple yard, which led to the current results.

"What's so great about that? Speaking of which, Xiao Che, your village still has a better environment."

"I haven't seen such good moss in years."

Old Man Sun shook his head and said that moss has very demanding requirements on the environment. Nowadays, thick and green moss can hardly be seen in many rural areas.

The natural moss spread in the yard is pleasing to the eye and exudes a faint moss fragrance.

"Alright, let's go in. Xiao Che, try not to step on the moss. It's quite rare to see it grow like this."

Jiang Che nodded and walked straight along the stone path to the kitchen.

The stove, which was just renovated yesterday, is now ready for use after drying in the shade for a day and a night.

The big iron pot that Jiang Che bought has been embedded in the stove, and everything was prepared yesterday.

"Three grandfathers, let me light the fire. I'm familiar with this."

The three old men nodded. They really didn't know much about using this old wood-burning stove.

Jiang Che lit the stove quickly, and Tang Yuanming reached out to test the temperature.

I took a bottle of white vinegar from the stove and poured it in, then waited for it to boil.

Just take a bamboo brush and clean it back and forth in the iron pot.

When it is almost done, pour out the white vinegar and rinse again with detergent and hot water.

I put the iron pot on the stove again. At this time, Mr. Pan came over with a basket of wild tea leaves that were drying in the sun.

These are the wild tea leaves that the three of them found on the mountain these days and picked.

Jiang Che asked in confusion, "Isn't Grandpa Tang going to fry my tea leaves?"

"Where are the notes of the old tea sage? Don't you know that the new iron pot needs to be boiled?"

"Using such good tea from the beginning, wouldn't that be a waste?"

Tang Yuanming said unhappily.

There are actually two reasons why these wild tea leaves are fried first.

One is to open the pot and remove the iron smell inside the iron pot.

Secondly, it was their first time to stir-fry tea and they did not have enough experience, so they had to use these junk teas to practice.

"Isn't this you guys?"
