The 80s Chronicle: Addiction To the Army’s Young Wife
Chapter 110: [Shocked]
At noon, Xu Ning came over after having lunch. As soon as he walked in, he saw that there were outsiders in Old Uncle Yao's house, and the three of them were eating.
"Ningning is here, come in quickly, have you eaten yet?" When the old man saw him, his expression instantly softened, making Luo Xijun a little surprised.
This is an old stubbornness. She wanted the old medicine uncle to open a Chinese medicine shop in Hangzhou before. She could also help her nearby. She said it twice every year during the Chinese New Year. He hummed every time. Refuse.
Although he is a doctor, he is never the kind of soft-spoken man.
Now it's weird.
But after seeing Xu Ning, Luo Xijun also felt that this little girl was indeed painful.
The whole person is fresh and tender, just like the small buds of the tea tree with pretty branches, with bright features and a particularly refreshing smile.
"I just had lunch, come here and have a look." Xu Ning saw the old lady staring since she came in, and didn't feel embarrassed, smiled at the other party, and then bent over and bowed slightly. Are you the tea maker that Grandpa Yao said?"
Seeing her behavior, Luo Xijun smiled and said, "My name is Luo."
"Hello, Grandma Luo, my name is Xu Ning."
"Sit down first." Uncle Yao told Xu Ning to sit down, "eat more."
"I ate a bowl of noodles at noon. I'm already full. Take it slowly, Grandpa Yao. Don't worry about me."
After the three of them had lunch, Luo Xijun took Xu Ning to talk to her, and finally laughed: "When the time comes, I will buy a couple of teas at a fair price. Do you think it's okay? "
"Buy?" Xu Ning was stunned, and then shook his head and smiled quickly: "You can just stay. I can't collect your money. Before, Grandpa Yao said that you are a famous tea maker in China. I think most people can't ask you to do anything. This is also a big bargain. Besides, I don’t know how to taste tea. Stay if you like it."
"How did this happen?" Luo Xijun said disapprovingly: "You don't know the preciousness of this tea, I..."
"Okay, what did you push around with a child, let you stay, mother-in-law." The old man glanced at the clock on the wall next to him, "Ningning, you should go to school."
"Okay!" Xu Ning got up, greeted the three of them, and left Xu's house.
Luo Xijun watched Xu Ning's back disappear outside the door, "What a sensible and well-behaved little girl, she is also very decent in her speech and behavior. Your village is really outstanding."
"This can be regarded as one aspect. The parents of this child are both college students. His father is the director of the finance department in the town government. His mother is an educated youth who came to the countryside from the magic capital more than ten years ago. Naturally, he will not neglect his discipline."
"It turned out to be like this, no wonder."
Luo Xijun didn't delay too long here, and left that afternoon.
After returning to Hangzhou, Shen Canglan went back to school, but Luo Xijun didn't care about rest and plunged into the homework of frying tea.
Of course, Shen Canglan is also very concerned about this place. For this reason, he did not return to his home after school in the afternoon, and came to report to grandma every day.
After about ten days, Shen Canglan came to grandma's house again, and saw her sitting in the living room, looking at the lacquered wooden box in front of her in a daze.
"Grandma? Did you succeed?" He walked to the wooden wicker chair and sat down.
"Yeah!" Luo Xijun nodded, "According to my expectations, methods and demanding requirements, these three catties of fresh leaves can only be fried into twos."
When Shen Canglan heard this, he knew that the tea leaves that were successfully fried would definitely be more than two or two, so he couldn't help but asked curiously: "What about now?"
"Sixty-two and two dollars." Luo Xijun opened the box and saw the completely fried tea inside, a strong tea fragrance surging out, making him take a deep breath.
This kind of scent is very special. It’s true that it’s tea, but it’s stronger than ordinary tea, but it doesn’t make people feel overwhelmed. Even Luo Xijun, who is accustomed to drinking tea, feels it. This scent seems to be just right, no more and no less.
It clearly smells so fragrant, but why it gives people such a strange feeling, it really makes her puzzled.
"Canglan, what do you think? I'm asking about taste."
Shen Canglan was also in shock. Hearing what the grandma said, he looked up at the old man and said after a moment of silence: "Grandma, are you thinking the same as mine?"
Seeing the expression of his grandson, Luo Xijun knew that he didn't even have to ask.
"Go boil a pot of well water, let's soak it and taste it." Luo Xijun told his grandson.
Shen Canglan couldn't wait a long time ago, and immediately got up to get water from the well to prepare tea.
An hour and a half later, after Luo Xijun’s exquisite and artistic tea making, the grandfather and grandson held a cup of tea and took a deep breath under the nose.
"I think the word Daigo empowerment is just an idiom, and now I suddenly feel that it is more appropriate to put it here." Shen Canglan sighed with emotion, "This taste, take a sip, and the whole mind is instantly sober, really sober."
Luo Xijun didn't speak, looking at the tea in the white porcelain teacup, the color was green and the aroma was strong, and the two tea leaves inside were as good as the tongue.
Taking a sip, she suddenly felt like a tea garden appeared in front of her eyes, full of green, giving people a kind of vigor and vitality.
Drinking tea gives people a sense of vigor, which Luo Xijun has never experienced. Many people know that there are many people over the age who like to drink tea. Drinking the vitality is really amazing. But he felt that his whole body was washed aside, and he became much younger in an instant.
But Shen Canglan didn't feel this way. He felt that it was an illusion that all the discomfort in the body had disappeared, as if the body was purified and life was advanced.
Is it really an illusion?
"Canglan, what do you think?" Luo Xijun looked at the most beloved grandson in front of him.
Shen Canglan took another sip, and it took a long time before he said, "Exquisite."
Luo Xijun looked at him with a smile, "It is enough to say that my grandson of Luo Xijun can say a superb product, which is enough to show that this tea is excellent."
"Grandma, how much do you think these two are worth?"
"...Priceless!" Luo Xijun dropped these two words, got up and walked to the side of the retro red sandalwood table, picked up the phone, and dialed the number of Xiangshan Village.
Shen Canglan knew what grandma was going to do, but he was holding a teacup and silently silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
After hanging up the phone and waiting for this moment, Luo Xijun said to his grandson: “Today, ask Xu Ning’s child how much fresh tea can be produced in a year, and then I will help him to see in the tea industry whether it is sold at a high price or sold. auction."
"...Auction?" Shen Canglan looked at grandma in surprise, "You are really amazing."
"Anyway, the tea industry is bound to make waves." She sighed. "The quality of this tea is the only thing I have ever seen in my life. According to my method, one pound of tea can produce two or two teas. You still think this is normal. ?"
Of course Shen Canglan wouldn't. Look at the ordinary tea merchants outside. Many of them are trying to sell more money. The sieving process is very casual, and it may be difficult to reach the level of his grandmother's fineness if he is more careful.
Obviously, since such a ratio can be achieved, it is that the quality of this tea is absolutely extraordinary. As a child, Shen Canglan, who has been influenced by it since childhood, can not be surprised.
"I have also measured carefully before. The size and weight of each shoot are almost the same, and the difference is completely negligible."
"So weird?" Shen Canglan narrowed his beautiful eyes slightly.
"What's weird." Luo Xijun couldn't laugh or cry. "Ancient tribute tea can also reach this level, but now I can't see it. No matter how good it is, it can't meet the quality standard of tribute tea. For example, Luo's family used to be tribute tea. Royal merchants, I can hardly copy many methods of my ancestors now, but now this tea has made up for my shortcomings. It can be said that even if it is back to that time, the current tea can fully serve the standard of tribute tea, only high Not low."
"Then you are still going to keep one or two?" This doubled.
"...I promised." Luo Xijun also felt distressed, not for anything else, but for her to speak, the little girl would definitely agree, even if she didn't even want a single cent, she was unwilling.
That little girl didn't know how valuable it was, but she couldn't take advantage of others, it was very rare to get one or two.
I called Xiangshan Village again, Luo Xijun and Old Uncle Yao talked here for a while before they hung up.
However, Shen Canglan understood the meaning of the conversation between the two, that is, whether they can take out two or two tea leaves alone, and she will supervise the auction, and the rest will be sent to the hands of Xu Ning in Xiangshan Village.
Old Uncle Yao came to Xu's house this afternoon and talked about it with Qin Xuejuan.
Qin Xuejuan naturally knows what's going on with tea trees, but she definitely can't tell. Fortunately, Xu Ning has told them before, not to mention the old lady, Qin Xuejuan did not reveal any flaws.
It's just that Qin Xuejuan was shocked when she heard that the tea was of very high quality, and even the master who made the tea offered to help them auction.
"Old Uncle Yao, the tea is really so good? I thought Ningning got the wild vegetable sprouts from somewhere." Qin Xuejuan frowned, "Is it really up to the point that it can be auctioned?"
"Isn't it very good?" Old Uncle Yao laughed, "No wonder you don't know him. This kid is really a waste. He actually picked a sprout back. My old friend said that if you bring a leaf, it will be of great value. , The tea made is definitely more than that."
"I said that when I went home some time ago, I kept talking about tea. The feelings were taught by your old man." The old lady glared at the old uncle Yao. "Didn't she learn to cook medicated food with you?"
"Look at what you said." Old Uncle Yao immediately blew his beard and stared, "Ningning is willing to learn, I am naturally willing to teach, and there is no limit to learning. If you like to learn, what else are you not happy about."
"Too lazy to talk to you." The old lady snorted.
Old Uncle Yao pointed to the old lady and said to Qin Xuejuan: "Look at your mother, it's been so many years, it's still so unreasonable."
"You want to control." The old lady retorted unconvincingly.
"Who cares about you." Old Uncle Yao was also unwilling to show weakness.
He knows that Yu Chunhua has a good heart, but his mouth is not forgiving. They have been in the same village for decades, and have long understood the other's temper. Sometimes this old woman has a headache and he will come to see him. , And occasionally arguing with two innocuous jokes can also make the mood very good.
After sitting for a while, Old Uncle Yao was about to go back, but was stopped by Qin Xuejuan.
"Old Uncle Yao, you see it's almost dinner, let's eat here tonight, and the province will let Ningning take a trip with the food."
Originally, Uncle Yao was about to refuse, but listening to what others said, he didn't even give you the opportunity to refuse, and he could only nod his head in agreement.
What can I do if I don't agree, can I really let Xu Ning go to the house to deliver food?
But he still said, "Juan'er, I have food at my uncle's house, so don't let Ningning send me food in the future."
Before Qin Xuejuan could speak, the old lady snorted again, "If you give it to you, you can eat it. If you really don't want you to eat it, I won't give it away. It's not bad for you."
Old Uncle Yao laughed suddenly, "You big girl, your mouth is so unceremonious, then I will be exhausted every day from now on."
"Who cares about you."
This means to eat as long as you want, or you don’t care if you come to your house for dinner?
When Xu Ning came back in the afternoon, she was shocked when she heard the news.
But when I discussed it with my parents during dinner, they both agreed.
As for the auction, the Xu Ning family didn't worry about it. Even if they wanted to see the excitement, they didn't have the time.
The point is that if someone asks the source of this tea, they are not easy to say.
Therefore, the only requirement of their family is to "secure" and not to disclose the tea made by Xu's family.
Luo Xijun naturally thought about this clearly. Xu Ning was still a child. If she was an adult in the Xu family, she might still say it.
The reason for the conclusion is that it is related to Xu Ning herself, and it is also a conclusion drawn through her observations.
If Xu Ning's elders make tea, no matter how you can only let a little girl get ahead, children may not know the market for tea, but adults are somewhat more knowledgeable than children.
Regarding the auction, she didn't plan to directly contact the auction house. The international tea exhibition will be opened in the Imperial Capital in less than a month. There will be the best place to promote auctions.
It was only when she thought that these two teas of her own might be exhausted, and she really felt the pain.
Later, because of one thing she discovered, she changed from a pain to a reluctance.
For this tea, she had countless doubts in her heart, and she didn't know if she could get the answer in this life.
And the answer that she couldn’t ask for the most was not where the tea was picked. It was in this season, how could there be such fresh tea? You must know that the picking season of Longjing tea is very harsh. The best period is the time period before and after the Ching Ming Festival, but now it is September.
She is not Ren Yongjia. That old guy likes to drink tea is right, but she also follows the family's temperament of inquiring less and talking less. She is one of the few people in China who knows tea well, so it's weird if you don't want to know.
However, due to Ren Yongjia's prevention, these problems could only rot in his heart in the end.
If you really have money, if you ask Qin Xuejuan what she wants to do, it will naturally be a business.
And Xu Ning? She still wants to buy a house.
Buying a house now, even in the imperial capital, the price is not very high, but in a few years, until the end of the 1980s, the house price will rise steadily every year, and it will continue to make countless people a few decades later. Looking up at the price, sighing with excitement.
Xu Ning wanted to own a house of his own, but didn't want to rent a house, let alone be a house slave in this lifetime.
Before her death, more than 80% of the married people working in the hotel were house slaves, and the remaining 20% were given to them after they had a house in their hometown or their parents’ house was demolished.
Everyone thinks about a good day, Xu Ning is still no exception in this life, but he used the wrong way in his previous life, but it won't happen in this life.
In mid-October, Luo Xijun came to Xiangshan Village again, this time with his grandson, but last time by train, this time by car.
The car belongs to Shen Canglan's father. The last time he came here was because Shen's father drove on a business trip, and the grandson and grandson could only take the train.
When Qin Xuejuan held more than 20,000 yuan in her hand, Luo Xijun's calm expression was still a bit surprised.
This is 20,000 yuan, which is definitely not a small amount, and Qin Xuejuan's demeanor made her know that Xu Ning's mother's family must also be very wealthy.
It’s just the attitude of Xu Ning’s grandmother that makes her quite incomprehensible. If Qin Xuejuan hasn’t lost her mind, she can still understand it. Normally, what is the origin of this family?
This question was only known after I quietly asked the old uncle Yao. It turns out that this old lady of the Xu family was also a big family. There were slaves and tenants in the family, no wonder.
This time, the grandparents and grandchildren were not in a hurry to go back. Shen Canglan was driving. Luo Xijun was worried that he would not be able to rest after driving two days in a row, so he decided to stop here at night and leave tomorrow.
When the old lady heard it, she said she would let them rest next door to her house. Of course, she would ask her son to call Old Man Jiang to talk. This is the most basic way of being a human being.
In the evening, Xu Ning cooked dinner. It was a common meal, but the two guests enjoyed it very much.
And that night, Luo Xijun made a cup of tea for everyone present.
The Xu family didn't know how to drink tea, but they also felt that the tea was so good. After tasting it, the old uncle Yao praised it greatly.
"Excellent." He squinted his eyes happily. "The tea I drank before can't compare to this."
Luo Xijun smiled and said: "Otherwise, how could you think it is possible to auction such a high price, and don't you find out that I have brewed this a few times?"
"Really." When she said so, the old uncle Yao immediately reacted, and then asked: "How many times have it been?"
"I have counted it at home and at tea fairs before. Generally, Longjing can only be brewed for at most three times, that is, less than ten cups. After that, the taste will be very weak." The ten cups mentioned by Luo Xijun are that. Plant the specific tea set she uses. Of course, the size and quantity of tea set are different. "And I have calculated this. Only after sixty cups, the taste will fade. The first sixty cups seem to me almost nothing. Variety."
Old Uncle Yao was simply astonished, looking at Luo Xijun: "You can hardly taste it. Can others drink seventy or eighty cups? This is fairy tea?"
"I think so." Luo Xijun nodded with a smile.
