Minister Zhang's face suddenly darkened because he saw the message his daughter had sent.
The content is minimal, consisting of only a single line of text.
"Dad, I do."
It was obvious that Minister Zhang's daughter was watching the live stream and had overheard them talking about the father-in-law's tea.
With just five words, Minister Zhang broke down completely.
His daughter, whom he had protected for over twenty years, was just... just gone?
impossible! ! !
Thinking it over, Minister Zhang put away his phone and stared intently at Qin Zi'an across from him.
Looking into his murderous eyes, it was as if he wanted to devour Qin Zi'an alive.
However, Qin Zi'an was not influenced by Minister Zhang and began to brew tea seriously.
The art of brewing tea in Fujian is quite elaborate, with a wide variety of brewing methods emerging.
However, the vast majority of people in Fujian only know five steps to brewing tea.
The first step is to shake the tea leaves to release their aroma. You need to pour the tea leaves into the teacup, then tighten the lid and shake it.
This step seems very simple, but it requires a high level of skill.
If the lid isn't held down, the tea leaves will spill out.
If the gesture of pressing the tea lid is not graceful, it will make one a laughing stock.
However, Qin Zian was quite skilled at shaking incense, and his every move exuded an air of nobility.
The second step in brewing tea is to pour water, allowing the hot water from the kettle to flow from a high position into the cup, so that the tea leaves can swirl fully.
This step isn't difficult; just make sure the water doesn't overflow.
The first two steps are relatively simple, and then it's about skimming the foam and rubbing the tea leaves.
This step involves using the lid to remove the foam from the tea leaves and then fully extracting the aroma of the tea.
Then, we returned to the step of shaking the incense sticks.
Nowadays, the "shaking aroma" method no longer involves holding the teacup and shaking it in the air, but rather shaking the tea lid to make the teacup shake along with it.
Because hot water was poured in, the teacup will be very hot.
If you're not careful, the water in the teacup will spill out and splash onto your fingers.
Even now, Qin Zian has done everything perfectly, and there is not a single mistake to be found.
Even so, Minister Zhang still didn't give him a friendly look and didn't think Qin Zi'an could complete the subsequent tea-making process.
After all, going to sea after that, both the tea ceremony and the conversion to Buddhism are quite difficult.
Without several years of tea-brewing experience, you're bound to make a fool of yourself.
"Going out to sea" refers to leaving a gap when covering the teacup with the lid, so that the tea inside can be poured out.
Because the teacup is too hot, your hand is very likely to shake, and you might accidentally spill both the water and the tea.
Displaying tea involves using a tea lid as a base to pour out all the tea leaves from the teacup and showcase their state.
If the tea leaves don't disperse, cover them back into the teacup, and the final conversion is complete.
After going through this set of actions, the tea will taste even better, and it will also demonstrate the tea brewer's skill.
Qin Zian's tea-making movements were fluid and graceful, giving people a sense of elegance and tranquility.
Director Huang nodded in approval and said admiringly, "Zian, your tea-brewing technique is really good, almost as good as mine."
"They're better at it than you are," Minister Zhang said irritably.
Although Minister Zhang was reluctant to admit it, Qin Zi'an's tea skills were indeed quite remarkable.
Not only did they avoid making a fool of themselves, but every step they took was quite elegant and steady.
Minister Zhang found it pleasing to the eye just by looking at it.
The live stream chat became lively because of Qin Zian's tea ceremony demonstration.
"If you don't understand, just ask. Why didn't Qin Zi'an get burned by the teaware? When I make tea, I get burned even if I use both hands at the same time."
"The art of tea ceremony? That's impossible. Qin Zi'an is only showing a false difference. True tea ceremony is about ruthless skill; tea brewed without burning your hands is soulless."
"Family members, Qin Zian's hand didn't shake because it was already numb from the heat! I used to think that the hot tea cup was because I was using the wrong technique, damn it! I later realized that no matter where I touched it, the whole cup was hot."
"Hahahaha! Don't you guys warm the cups before brewing tea? Warming the cups before brewing tea will prevent you from getting burned. You can try it, it will definitely work every time."
"It's just brewing tea, why are you all making such a fuss? It looks pretty simple to me. After watching Qin Zian's live stream, I'll use my spare tea set to brew some tea and then make a tutorial for you."
Everyone was discussing how amazing Qin Zi'an's tea skills were, and sharing their own tea-brewing experiences.
Many people who had never brewed tea before decided to take out their unused tea sets and give it a try.
At least, they remained defiant until they were scalded by boiling water.
At the same time, Qin Zi'an had already poured the tea he had brewed into cups and invited them to taste it.
Minister Zhang gently swirled the tea in his cup, then leaned closer to smell it.
The aroma of tea fills the air.
Even if the quality of the tea leaves is not high today, the aroma and flavor of the tea have been fully brought out.
Minister Zhang took a small sip and found the fragrance lingering on his lips and teeth.
"Excellent tea! Zian, your tea-making skills are truly impressive."
"Not even a tenth of Minister Zhang's," Qin Zi'an said with a smile.
Looking at Qin Zian's bright smile, Minister Zhang knew that the kid was making fun of him.
This tea ceremony is not the same as that tea ceremony; Qin Zi'an is referring to his green tea.
Minister Zhang wasn't the type to fuss over trivial matters. As long as his precious daughter could be saved, he didn't care about anything else.
The group drank the tea brewed by Qin Zi'an and chatted briefly about the tea culture of Fujian.
Within five minutes, they heard the sound of gongs and drums.
Look, the procession of deities from the blessed land has arrived.
The group exchanged glances, and Qin Zian stood up.
As he walked towards the door, he gave a preview to the viewers in the live stream.
"Many people in the live stream just now said they wanted to see the procession of deities from Fujian. Today, let's watch the procession of deities from the blessed land, which is the recently popular 'Princes' Team' online."
When the viewers in the live stream saw Qin Zi'an making tea, they all assumed that he wouldn't be doing the Youshen live stream.
However, they did not expect that Qin Zian not only did a live broadcast, but the location of the broadcast was also quite special.
When the audience saw the police station's classic decor, they were completely stunned.
Is it really permissible to broadcast a religious procession live from inside a police station?
