Chapter 260 Skills (Update 1)
The servant was puzzled.
Distinguished guest?
At this time, what kind of distinguished guest would come to them?
But they didn't dare to ask, and just lowered their heads and accepted the order.
…
A carriage slowly stopped in front of the teahouse, and an old man with white hair and dressed in brocade clothes got out. He looked up at the plaque on the door and stroked his beard.
"Is this it?"
Someone passing by recognized him and exclaimed in surprise.
"Master of the Imperial Court!?"
If this person isn't Tang Zhongli, the Imperial College's chief academic officer, then who else could it be?!
Tang Zhongli seemed to be oblivious to the voices around him. After confirming again, he lifted his clothes and walked directly inside.
Although the waiter in the store had never seen Tang Zhongli, he had heard the noise outside clearly. He was surprised and happy at the same time, and hurried forward to greet him.
"I am too short-sighted to recognize the great master. I am sorry that I failed to welcome you, the Lord of the Imperial Court!"
Tang Zhongli smiled and waved his hand.
"No problem. I heard that your teahouse has the best tea, so I came here specially to ask for a cup."
As soon as the words came out, everyone was shocked.
The people standing outside the door looking at each other in bewilderment.
——What's going on? Tang Zhongli actually came to this small tea house to drink tea! ?
Everyone in the court, whether civil or military, knew that the Chief Academician of the Imperial College was upright, strict, self-disciplined, and had only two major hobbies, one of which was drinking tea.
Now he actually appeared here!
The servant was also stunned for a moment, then he remembered what Ye Chutang had said before going upstairs, and hurriedly bowed to invite him.
"Yes, yes! My master has been waiting for you upstairs for a long time. Please take a seat——"
Tang Zhongli nodded, then followed the servant up to the second floor, leaving only a group of confused onlookers outside the store.
"Master Jijiu, what do you mean? This tea house has been open for several years, and I have never heard of any rare treasures before."
"They say he is very picky about tea. To be able to please him... could this tea house really have some talent?"
Ye Chutang sat by the window, with a complete set of tea sets already placed in front of him. The faint fragrance of tea wafted out, creating a sense of tranquility and peace.
Tang Zhongli saw this scene as soon as he came in. Thinking of the rumors in the capital today, he couldn't help but feel emotional.
——The court had already been in chaos, but Ye Chutang, the center of the incident, seemed to be fine, sipping tea leisurely here.
"Miss Ye Er has been waiting for a long time."
Ye Chutang looked back and stood up to salute: "Your Excellency, the presence of the chief priest brings honor to my humble abode. It is worth waiting no matter how long."
Tang Zhongli waved his hand and came to her, and the two of them sat across the table from her.
"Miss Ye Er, you don't have to be polite. I don't have any official business today. I just came to ask for a cup of tea."
His eyes swept across the tea set and paused for a moment on the jar of tea leaves, a hint of interest in his eyes.
“Is this the tea you made yourself?”
He had drunk it once at Yin's house and had never forgotten it since then. Unfortunately, old man Yin Shaoting was very stingy. He insisted that he only had one can and it would be gone after he drank it, and he refused to give him any more.
Ye Chutang's eyes narrowed.
"yes."
After Tang Zhongli was invited to take a seat, Ye Chutang followed suit.
Scrape the foam, rub the tea, shake the incense, go out to sea, display the tea, and convert.
Her hands are as smooth as flowing clouds and running water.
In the quiet room, there is only the lingering aroma of tea.
Ye Chutang raised his hand: "This is this year's spring tea, you try it and see if you like it."
Tang Zhongli picked up the teacup. The tea was clear and transparent, with a fragrant aroma. It was sweet and refreshing after taking a sip.
It was indeed the tea he had been longing for for a long time!
Tang Zhongli's eyes lit up.
"I didn't expect Miss Ye Er to have such a skill."
Ye Chutang also picked up a cup with a smile in the corner of his eyes.
"I usually think about this when I have nothing to do, but it's not a skill. It just so happens that this tea was picked by Ayan, and there is still some at home. If you like it, I will have someone send it to your house someday."
