Chapter 183 My family grows it ourselves
Suddenly, Ruan Qi felt a little closer to Lulu.
She took off her sunglasses, revealing her smiling peach blossom eyes, and said softly, "So the Minglou is owned by Sister Lu. I've been there once before, and the tea was delicious."
Lulu felt the girl's approachable attitude and her eyes brightened.
"It seems Miss Ruan is also someone who understands tea!" She enthusiastically grasped Ruan Qi's hand, her tone becoming increasingly gentle. "It's my honor to meet Miss Ruan today. Miss Ruan, how about we add each other on WeChat?"
Ruan Qi naturally wouldn't refuse the opportunity to befriend the Lu family, a family of ancient medicine. She pulled her hand out of Lu Lu's palm, took out her phone from her bag, and opened WeChat.
Lulu immediately opened her WeChat QR code.
The two of them interacted with each other and soon became WeChat friends.
Lulu looked at Ruan Qi in the address book and a look of satisfaction appeared on her face.
She turned off her phone and put it back in her bag, then looked at Ruan Qi with a smile, rubbed her hands, and said a little embarrassedly: "Miss Ruan, I have a rather presumptuous question. I don't know if I should ask it."
Ruan Qi knew what Lulu was going to ask and nodded with a smile.
"Sister Lu, please speak."
"Then I'll ask." Lulu chuckled, pointed at the teapot she had stuffed into her bag, and asked, "Ms. Ruan, where did you buy these mother tree Dahongpao tea leaves from?"
Although the Lu family is a family of ancient medicine, because four generations of the family have been tea lovers, the Lu family has an additional side business of selling tea.
Although it was a sideline business, it was also a big one. Basically, the Lu family could get any tea that could be named on the market, regardless of grade.
——Except the mother tree Dahongpao.
The annual yield of Da Hong Pao from the mother tree is too small. The few tens of grams produced are either specially supplied to the top dignitaries or directly bought by the secluded nobles at a high price.
Although the Lu family is a family of ancient medicine, they are not at the top level in this powerful circle, so they do not have many channels to obtain the mother tree of Dahongpao.
For the Lu family, who are crazy about tea, this kind of unrequited love is more painful than losing everything.
So, when Lulu saw the mother tree of Dahongpao today, she was so excited that she went crazy.
Lulu looked at Ruan Qi eagerly, with the words "please tell me" almost written on her face.
Ruan Qi wanted to laugh when she saw Lulu's longing eyes.
"Sister Lu," she coughed as if to cover up, trying hard to suppress her smile, and replied, "I brought these Dahongpao from home."
Lulu didn't expect to hear such an answer and was stunned for a moment.
"Did you bring it from home?"
"Yes." Ruan Qi nodded, "I brought it from my hometown."
Lulu: “…”
Lulu's facial features twisted for a moment.
There are only four mother trees of Dahongpao in China that can produce mother tree Dahongpao, but Ruan Qi told her that these Dahongpao were brought from home.
Little sister, are you treating me like a fool?
Lulu has always had a hot temper. If she had encountered something like this on a normal day, she would probably have pointed at the other person's nose and cursed.
But at this moment, looking at Ruan Qi's pair of clean and sincere peach blossom eyes, Lulu's 10,000-word classic Chinese curse got stuck in her throat and she couldn't say it out.
Reason told her that Ruan Qi was fooling her.
But my sixth sense told me that Ruan Qi must be telling the truth.
The true and false judgments kept tugged at Lulu's mind for a long time, and she looked as if she was constipated.
Qiao Zheng was well aware of his friend's explosive temper and worried she might offend Ruan Qi in a fit of rage, so he quickly intervened to smooth things over. "Miss Ruan, do you think this mother tree Da Hong Pao was bought by her family?"
Lulu felt that Qiao Zheng's explanation was somewhat logical, and her constipated expression eased a little.
However, the next second, she heard Ruan Qi speak.
"No." The girl's voice was soft and innocent. "My family didn't buy this tea. They grew it themselves."
