Remember in one second to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

It was almost noon when it was the tea man's turn to make a promise.

The sun is high in the sky, and both the contestants and the tea drinkers are beginning to feel tired.

Xu Nuo stood up and looked around quickly, raised her skirt and came forward. After sitting down according to the ceremony, she closed her eyes slightly to keep herself calm.

Then, his eyes opened, and there was only the tea set in his eyes, with nothing else in mind.

Clean tea sets, grind tea cakes, make soup, whisk...

Step by step methodically.

These steps seem to be engraved in her mind, and the rhythm is completely controlled by her.

As the bamboo is blown, the foam in the tea cup becomes more and more dense.

After a while, a peach blossom appeared in the tea cup.

Not a peach blossom, not a peach tree, nor a peach orchard, just a peach blossom.

There is only a half-opened peach blossom on the tea soup, with a young leaf at the bottom.

Xu Nuo put down the soup bottle in his hand, took a long breath, and nodded to the waiting maid.

The tea set she used to order tea this time was a set of rabbit hair black glaze lamps from the kiln. It was given to her by Mrs. Lu in Suzhou on the day she took her to meet Mrs. Ye. She has always used this tea set to order tea this year. , the fit between her and the tea set is already perfect.

As for the tea cakes she used today, they were brought by Ye Qingchen to Beijing this time. Although the Ye family does not grow tea, they also make tea cakes.

The Ye family's tea cakes are naturally the most suitable for ordering tea, so when Xu Gucheng promised to take a carriage to the princess's mansion, Xu Gucheng asked her to bring the Ye family's tea cakes instead of the Xu family's tea cakes.

Because Sitting in the middle with the eldest princess of the Sui Dynasty, Lu was able to see clearly the tea play made by the tea master for the first time.

After seeing a peach blossom in the tea cup in front of Xu Nuo, a faint smile appeared on her face.

When did this kid Liu Niang learn to think about people's hearts?

Judging from the clothes and decorations of the eldest princess of the Sui Kingdom, we can know that she likes simple and elegant things rather than complicated and trivial things.

Moreover, there is a plaque on the verandah at the hanging flower gate of the Princess's Mansion, with three words "Half Peach Immortal" on it.

The plaque is very new, obviously a new addition. But the word "half peach" here is worth pondering.

Xu Nuo discovered this carefully and reflected it in the tea drama he made.

The maid brought over the promised tea, and although the tea drinkers saw no unusual color on their faces, they all secretly praised it in their hearts.

It seems. It was not unreasonable for the queen to specially summon Xu Liuniang to the palace to order tea.

Xu Liuniang's tea drama seems very simple at first glance. Only when you take a closer look will you discover its subtlety and how much thought she put into the tea drama.

The color of the half-open peach blossoms on the surface of the tea soup gradually increases layer by layer, and the stamens are clearly visible. Even the veins on the young leaves at the bottom are very clear, as if there is a peach blossom buried in the tea soup.

The most important thing is that it took a full quarter of an hour for the tea show to end!

After the tea show ended, a maid divided the tea and gave it to the tea tasters.

After seeing the promised tea show, everyone had calmed down when they drank tea again, and had a final conclusion in their hearts about today's tea man competition.

When it came time for the tea tasters to score, the tea tasters entered the main room together, leaving the contestants outside.

The contestants watched the carved wooden door of the main room slowly close and began to discuss in low voices.

Inside the house, the Lord of Jiaren County was unwilling to give in. But in order to show his magnanimity, he had to rate the promise as the best like everyone else.

The result of the tea competition is usually one person who is the best, five people who are excellent, then good, and finally poor.

The person who gets the lowest rating will definitely be ridiculed among the tea lovers in the future, and no one will invite a person who gets the lowest rating in the tea competition to order tea.

To be fair, the most fragrant tea today is not the promise, but her tea play is the best.

Considering the relationship with the Queen, all the tea tasters actually abandoned the tradition of judging the royal family's children as the best, and unanimously chose Xu Nuo as the best.

The princess of the Sui Dynasty praised her promise as the best when she saw it. His eyes swept over Lu's face, but he couldn't see anything wrong with Lu's expression.

She praised in her heart: It was indeed Lu Qiniang, whom she had looked up to for many years when she was young. No matter in the past or now, she was always calm and calm.

The corner of Princess Sui's mouth curved. He said: "I thought the tea ordered by Xu Liuniang didn't have enough aftertaste, so it was too much to rate it as the best, but..."

The eldest princess of Sui State expressed her position, and the others naturally agreed.

Therefore, the promise was rated as excellent.

The expression on Mrs. Lu's face did not change, but her heart that had been hanging around was relieved.

Ruono was rated the best. There may be many troubles in the future. Princess Sui is indeed a kind-hearted person.

After the tea man competition, Xu Qian returned to the Xu Mansion with Lu.

The three of them entered Yingcheng Courtyard and saw Xu Gucheng standing in the corridor. The shadow of the eaves covered his face, but the green robe he wore at home was reflected brightly.

Xu Qian's heart beat faster when she saw Xu Gucheng. She didn't know how her father would treat her.

"Wan Niang, you are back."

Xu Gucheng took a few steps forward and emerged from the shadows, his tall body bathed in the sunlight. Time has been particularly kind to him. His face is still handsome and has clear lines, but the smile on his face is a little lighter than usual.

"Master, I've been waiting for a long time." With a faint smile on her face, Mrs. Lu greeted Xu Gucheng and asked Aunt Li to place the promised rewards from today's tea competition in the room.

Xu Nuo stepped forward to salute and shouted: "Daddy."

Chuntang and Qiyue also followed behind and saluted, and said at the same time: "Alang."

Xu Qian bit her lip, crossed Xu, stood next to Lu, bowed and saluted: "I have met my father."

Xu Nuo was behind, his peach blossom eyes wide open, not letting go of any expression on Xu Gucheng's face.

You know, she is more curious than Xu Qian about what Xu Gucheng will do.

If he hits Xu Qian, he will definitely feel guilty in the future, and Xu Qian can be freed from the mistakes she made.

However, Xu Nuo knew that Xu Gucheng would not hit anyone, let alone his own daughter.

Sure enough, Xu Gucheng didn't even raise his eyebrows, he just said: "Siniang, get up."

"Father!"

Xu Qian didn't expect that Xu Gucheng didn't have anything to say to her. She was so surprised that she forgot to modify the expression on her face.

Only then did Xu Gucheng clearly see the changes in Xu Qian's appearance in the past six months. He paused and motioned for several people to enter the room.

After entering the house, he said: "Siniang, why did you leave your house alone and go to Bianjing? Do you know how dangerous this trip is?"

Suye had not returned after going out, so Xu Gucheng still didn't know who brought Xu Qian to Bianjing.

"Father, I just miss you and my mother, and I just want to come and see you." Xu Qian had tears in her eyes, but they would not fall. Anyone who saw her would feel pity.

Xu Gucheng originally planned to pick up Xu Qian in May, hold a hairpin ceremony for her in Bianjing in August, and then prepare for her wedding, and marry her into the Zhang family in October.

However, she can't wait until May!

She doesn’t want to marry Zhang Xian!

So after learning the purpose of Lord Jiaren County, she agreed without any hesitation and took the bus north that day.
