Chapter 1657 : Chapter 1657 -ancient timesUnlike French pushing, old time tea was traveling in stealth today because it was worried that pets were not allowed in the teahouse. If there were other guests, they might not be unhappy to see their pets drinking tea with others.
After entering the teahouse, it carefully looked at the things and people it had not seen for a long time, and could not help but sigh.
The older it got, the more it liked peace and quiet. The teahouse in hidden fog was an ideal place for peace and quiet. In ancient times, Masters often built their own thatched cottages in the wild mountains. However, when it was too quiet, it would think of action. This was one of the reasons why it chose to go down the mountain with Zhang Zian.
The interior of the teahouse was almost the same as it had been a year ago, even the arrangement of the chairs. The shopkeeper and the waiter were the same, as if time had stopped in the teahouse.
Old time tea felt that even if they returned to this place next year, it would still be like an ink painting that had already been set.
Of course, if one were to judge them from the perspective of picking bones from an egg, the shopkeeper and the waiter had some slight changes in their appearance, such as the taste of their skin care products, the length of their hair, and the look in their eyes as they grew older.
Fortunately, time had not yet carved lines on their faces, although it was only a matter of time. After all, it was human nature to die of old age and illness. Even if the two of them did not have to worry about money for the time being, they would face the fork in life of marriage sooner or later.
“It’s good!”
A crisp voice of praise interrupted old time tea’s thoughts. It turned its eyes and looked at the back of the middle school girl.
The shopkeeper and the waiter, who it thought were in the prime of their youth, paled in comparison in front of true youth. She was like a ray of light that illuminated the entire teahouse. She held the teacup with her slender hands, and her skin was as smooth as if it was translucent. She did not need any skin care products at all.
“Shopkeeper, the tea you made is too good!” “Even the ancient tea Saints and tea Immortals couldn’t taste such good tea!” The young girl exclaimed in admiration.
Old time tea laughed. He was indeed a young man who was not afraid of Tigers. He was really outspoken.
“Guest, you’re too kind. How can we hope to catch up to the ancient sages?” The shopkeeper laughed, but she still enjoyed the praise of the customers.
“I’m serious! Many people would praise the ancient times when they talked about traditional culture. How could the ancient times be so good? Everything was developing, and technology was constantly improving, and tea art was the same! If we bring the tea from Tang and song to this day, you’ll probably throw up after taking a sip!” Although she was young, she spoke eloquently, and the lapels of her sailor uniform rose and fell slightly with her words.
Of course, the shopkeeper would not argue with such a young girl, so he just smiled and said nothing.
After a lot of hard work, Zhang Zian finally got the menu. He nodded and said,””That’s true. Those who bragged about Dragon liver and Phoenix brain in ancient times have never tried KFC and fat otaku happy drink. Modern science has already studied taste to the molecular level. If you bring the cheapest bag of chicken essence back to ancient times, a pot of random hodgepodge with a small pinch of chicken essence will become incomparably delicious. You will most likely be praised as the God of chicken …”
“Hahaha! Chicken God is alright. ” The junior high school girl trembled as she held the teacup.
“Are you ordering tea or talking nonsense?” The waiter said angrily.
“Don’t worry, order immediately. ”
Zhang Zian was really aggrieved as a customer today. He had offended her in the past, and she had been holding a grudge until now …
There were some new dishes on the menu compared to nearly a year ago. Of course, the prices were more expensive as well. Yingying’s memory was far from good enough to remember the prices of the menu from a year ago. It was only because he had relived the menu once in his dream that he could not forget it.
He laid the menu flat on the table, indicating that old time tea would like to have a meal, and he himself ordered the cheapest set meal.
Old time tea browsed a little and pointed at the Tieguanyin tea with its claw. It was only considered a mid-range tea in the teahouse. In the high-end columns, there were so many “8s” that it was dizzying. Looking at it, it felt like the “8s” had collapsed and become an infinite symbol …
“I’d like a pot of the highest quality Tie Guan Yin. ” He added when he saw that the waiter was about to leave.
“Aren’t you alone? Tea is included in the refreshments set. Why did you order a pot of tea?” The waiter looked at him as if he was a country bumpkin.
“The more I order, the more I’ll help your business, right?” Zhang Zian answered seriously.
The waiter’s lips moved, and he suddenly put his face close to his ear.
Zhang Zian thought that she was going to kiss him. It seemed that the business in the store was not good. He could get a kiss by ordering two pots of tea? Am I that kind of person?
He turned his face to her and was about to reject her sternly when he heard her say in a low voice,””A new police station has opened at the foot of the mountain. If you dare to eat for free again, I’ll call the police!”
After saying that, she returned to the counter without looking back and said loudly,””A pot of top quality Tie Guan Yin and a Jasmine Matcha Set meal!”
“Alright! A pot of Tieguanyin tea and a Jasmine Matcha Set meal. They will be ready soon. ” The shopkeeper replied.
The waiter took out a basin stand with three slots inside, which were a small basin, a disposable soap, and a disposable towel. There was a pool of clear water in the small basin, which seemed to be for Zhang Zian to wash his hands before tea. This was a service that had not been available the last time he came.
Zhang Zian sighed. No wonder the price of the menu had increased again. It turned out that the service had been upgraded again. Even the first class of the plane didn’t have such service, right? Although he had never taken a first-class flight before, he guessed that the ancient nobles were probably just like that.
It could only be said that it was good to be rich, and the things that rich people could enjoy were also good!
After he washed his hands, the waiter brought the basin rack back. Then, he heard a splash. The basin of water that had been manually carried to the top of the mountain was thrown away, making his heart ache.
The shopkeeper’s tea-making skills were very ornamental, but at the same time, they were very scientific and rigorous. He used a thermometer to accurately monitor the temperature of the boiling water in the silver pot so that the tea could be brewed at the best temperature. This alone was not something that the ancient people could do. Because there were no thermometers in ancient times, the temperature of the boiling water could only be measured by experience and estimation. Moreover, even if the ancient people also used silver pots to boil water, the silver content in the silver pots was not as pure as the modern silver pots. The more impurities there were, the more difficult it was to taste the tea to a certain degree. Any impurities could affect the taste of the tea, so the junior high school girl’s words were not unreasonable.
The shopkeeper first made jasmine tea, and the waiter brought out a matcha cake from the kitchen, placing it on a tray and serving it to Zhang Zian.
“Please enjoy.” The waiter said routinely.
The shopkeeper continued to brew tie Guanyin tea.
The cake was exquisitely made, but … The portion was not enough. Zhang Zian felt that he could eat it in one bite.
At this moment, the middle school girl suddenly said,””Aiya! I forgot to bring money, can I put it on credit?”
