The essence of the tea competition in Bianjing is also a tea competition. Different from the tea competition in Suzhou, the contestants here do not compete at the same time, but in order according to the registration order. After everyone orders tea, there will be a tea taster. Make an appropriate evaluation.
She signed up just before she promised to participate in the competition, so she was the last one. She probably calculated the time, and it was around noon that she would be in line to order tea.
Hearing Xu Nuo's sarcasm, Xu Qian turned her head and glared: "You! Xu Liu Niang! I'll have something for you in the future!"
Regarding Zhang Xian, Xu Qian really hated him to her core.
Without him, her father and grandmother would not have gotten her engaged so quickly, and she would have had the opportunity to come to Bianjing six months earlier to meet Ding Mo.
The day before arriving in Bianjing, she heard people say that Ding Mo had become a first-class Jinshi. She was both happy and sad in her heart.
Fortunately, she saw the right person, but sadly, the distance between them is getting farther and farther.
Xu Nuo smiled, ignored Xu Qian's threats, and said word by word: "I will stay with you until the end, but today I hope that Fourth Sister will pay attention to the Xu family's reputation and not mess it up."
Xu Qian's face turned dark when she heard this.
During the past six months, she had been filled with resentment and made no progress in her tea ceremony. Instead, she had a tendency to regress because of her bad mood.
Now that I came to participate in the tea fight, I actually had no idea.
The tea masters came forward one by one, bowed and sat on the mat, holding their breath and concentrating, using their best tea sets and this year's new tea to start ordering tea. Finally, when making tea, they should take into account the preferences of the tea drinkers, so as to achieve a high level of success. point.
There were drops of sweat on the forehead of everyone who ordered tea, and they sat respectfully waiting for the tea taster's evaluation.
The spring breeze blows slowly, but it cannot cover up the restlessness in people's hearts.
Although everyone knows that this tea ceremony is a competition prepared for noble men and ladies to enhance their reputation, there are also ordinary people who come to participate with a glimmer of hope.
If they can get a good ranking in the tea competition, they will definitely be invited as guests by dignitaries in the future, and they will no longer have to live in poverty now.
If you make a mistake when ordering tea or if you are ranked too low, the days to come will be even more embarrassing.
Success or failure depends on this.
This year, the three first-level Jinshi were invited by the eldest princess of the Sui Dynasty to serve as tea tasters. The three of them sat together, each wearing a brocade robe. Wearing a jade crown and holding his head high, his unique scenery attracted the attention of many people present.
Of course, Xu Qian's gaze was also included.
Xu Qian sat down. Her eyes drifted towards Ding Mo from time to time. Although she didn't stare at Ding Mo all the time, Xu Nuo knew that she only had Ding Mo in her eyes.
Seeing Xu Qian's appearance, Xu Nuo couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
Ding Mo today. Xu Qian was afraid that she would no longer have the chance to pay her respects.
At the end of the month, a lady in navy blue sleeves read out Xu Qian's name.
When Xu Qian heard the sound, she raised her head, first smiled slightly, then stood up and walked towards the big table.
When she walked over, two boys carried her tea set. She thanked her, then gave a gift to the tea drinker, and finally sat on the table. Slowly rolled up his sleeves and started cleaning the tea set.
Xu Qian's every move showed the elegance that a lady should have, and there was no fault in her etiquette. Her appearance was extremely outstanding, and everyone who tasted tea had a good impression of her.
Only Lu's face had a faint look of sadness.
The daughter she had loved for fourteen years, whom she had not seen for half a year, had actually changed a lot.
There was a hint of enchantment in every move, completely lacking the original elegance and beauty.
Lu Shi looked at Xu Qian motionlessly, and Xu Qian also raised her eyes and glanced in Lu Shi's direction, and their eyes met.
Xu Qian quickly looked away. Lower your eyes.
Mother, why are your eyes full of disappointment? Don’t you think your daughter has grown better in the past six months?
Xu Qian's appearance has become more open in the past six months, following Aunt Du's. Only the word "feminine" remains in her movements and expressions.
Xu Qian made a tea play with peach blossoms, and the pictures on the tea soup were extremely delicate.
Today, many tea masters participating in the competition used peach blossoms to make tea plays, but no one has made such exquisite designs as Xu Qian's.
Therefore, as soon as she put down the tea set, someone with sharp eyes praised her.
After Xu Qian heard this, she couldn't help but show a proud look on her face, and looked back at Xu Nuo, with provocation and contempt in her eyes.
She has always been the outstanding one. Xu Nuo has only learned tea ceremony for more than a year, so how can he defeat her? ?
However, when the maid took the tray to give her tea to the tea drinker, the peach blossoms on the tea soup suddenly burst, and the original delicate pattern slowly dissipated as the bubbles in the tea soup decreased.
The tea scene disappeared in an instant. This scene made many people frown, and the maid who took the tray was even more puzzled.
This kind of tea-ordering skills is really unbearable to watch.
The expression on Xu Qian's face paused, and she slowly clenched her fists, but because her sleeves were rolled up, she could only let them go.
Eyes wandering...
After a while, she twitched the corner of her mouth twice, looked into the eyes of those people, forced herself to smile, and divided the tea from the big teacup for the tea tasters to taste.
At the same time, he said: "I was impressed by the beauty of the peach blossoms in the house. I forgot about it and ordered the peach blossom tea. The tea is too delicate and the tea is kept for a short time. The time to bite the cup is short. I wonder if I can give you another chance to make it. Do you want to do the tea show again?"
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a lot of buzzing discussion in the courtyard.
Those who participated in the competition naturally did not want Xu Qian to do it again, but the final decision rested with the Princess of Sui.
Princess Sui did not answer immediately, but picked up the tea Xu Qian had just ordered, smelled the aroma and took a sip, then put down the teacup with a light smile on her face.
Xu Qian felt a lot more relaxed when she saw the eldest princess of the Sui Kingdom looking at her with a smile. The eldest princess was willing to give her a chance!
So lucky, so lucky!
I heard that the eldest princess was not easy to get in touch with, but she didn't expect that she would fall in the eldest princess's eyes.
If she could win the favor of the eldest princess, then she wouldn't need the backer of Jiaren County Lord.
As time went by, she finally met her lover.
Xu Qian was happy in her heart, but she heard the Princess Sui said: "Xu Liuniang, it's not just about the tea. The tea you ordered didn't have enough aroma and aftertaste when you drank it. It will be the same if you try it again. Don't force it."
Xu Qian was shocked when she heard that she directly said that the tea she ordered was not good!
So how will she gain a foothold in the future?
The original advantage of ordering tea has been denied. What should she do in a place like the capital?
Xu Qian returned to where she was sitting in a daze, with no trace of blood on her face.
Seeing her like this, Xu Nuo did not make things worse, but just raised his eyes to look at the Lord Jiaren who was not far away.
The Lord of Jiaren County was wearing orange sleeves today, with exquisite makeup on his face, and a gold hairpin in his hair. But at this moment, he had a weird smile on his face, which made Xu Nuo get goosebumps all over his body. (To be continued.).
