Chapter 9: Tea and Return Gifts

Two people suddenly stood at the door. Yun Yi put the chess piece on the chessboard while looking up.

I saw that it was Chen Bo, who runs a wooden workshop at the entrance of the alley. Yun Yi thought the plaque had been carved, so he stood up with a smile and went up to meet him.

"It's Uncle Chen."

"Haha, Brother Yi is playing chess."

"Yes, I'm bored and thinking about it."

Yun Yi looked around and didn't see the new plaque. He was wondering. Uncle Chen pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and said, "Brother Yi, I will introduce you to you. This person is..."

The middle-aged man stepped forward to interrupt him without waiting for his introduction and introduced himself: "I'm nagging. I'm not alone. I hope the young man will forgive me if I'm not polite."

Yun Yi was stunned for a moment and hurriedly bowed: "Uh, hello, hello, boy's surname is Yun, and his single name is Yi."

"That's..." Li Gefei pointed to the chessboard under the tree. Seeing this, Yun Yi smiled and nodded: "That's this chess."

"Good name!"

"Make a laugh at Mr.

Li Gefei waved his hand, walked to the chessboard, looked down for a while, and said in a marvelous manner: "This is the Dragon and Tiger Game, does Xiao Langjun have a way to crack it?"

Yun Yi didn't expect that the other party would actually understand chess, so he became interested in it for a moment. He walked up to him and said with a smile: "I haven't found a way to crack it yet, but I'm a little bit surprised. I also like this?"

Li Gefei smiled but said nothing. After observing for a while, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a handsome expression: "If Xiao Langjun doesn't mind, how about we two in the previous game?"

Yun Yi glanced at Uncle Chen, saw him nodding to him, and then agreed after thinking about it. He knew that this guy who called himself Li Gefei should not be simple in his identity.

The two took the seat in different times, Yun Yi took the black chess first, Li Gefei smiled and said, "How can you do if you have chess but no tea? Guangsheng..."

There was a sound of footsteps at the gate of the courtyard. It turned out to be the young man who came to borrow water. Yun Yi nodded at him with a smile. Seeing that his master was sitting opposite Yun Yi, the young man did not dare to neglect, so he hurriedly bowed and bowed to show his respect for the master.

Li Gefei said: "Boil the two liang of Maofeng and the pot of spring water, and be more respectful when borrowing the fire."

Upon hearing this, Guangsheng hurriedly said yes.

Yun Yi smiled and said, "Brother, wait, the visitor is a guest, how can you ask the teacher to prepare tea by himself..."

He looked back and looked towards the kitchen and shouted, "Qiu Niang, come here to soak a pot of Longjing."

"Longjing... is Longjing tea from Lin'an Shifeng Mountain?" Li Gefei asked in surprise.

Yun Yi nodded with a smile: "It's West Lake Longjing. Why, do you like it too?"

Li Gefei was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly: "I like it, but the production of this tea is scarce. It is said that it is very troublesome to stir-fry, throw, shake, stir, throw, grab, push, buckle and press grind. Tea of ​​different quality has different frying techniques."

"Oh, is it so troublesome?" Yun Yi knew nothing about it. He bought this tea from the supermarket, 500 per pound.

Li Gefei smiled and said, "Yes, slow work produces fine work. Longjing tea is green in color, beautiful in shape, rich in fragrance and mellow in taste, but is the best in the world, light and far away, fragrant and clear, which is the best among tea. Today's officials love this tea. I...uh, cough cough..."

Halfway through the talk, he suddenly mentioned the official family, that is, what is Li Gefei's identity? According to his opinion, it seemed like he had drunk tea with the emperor...

Yun Yi smiled but said nothing. Qiu Niang just came over with a tea tray, purple clay pot, purple clay cup, and a simple set of kung fu tea sets.

The bamboo tea tray is small and exquisite. A poem is engraved in the middle of the tea tray. It is Ouyang Xiu's: The spring is sweet and the utensils are clean and the weather is good, and it is also good to choose guests while sitting.

Li Gefei raised his eyebrows, picked up the teacup and looked at Yun Yi, thinking to himself: Could this kid be the disciple of the Zhuiweng?

The guest followed the host and poured tea. The tea was seven points, no more or less. The tea was tender yellow and the tea was fragrant. Li Gefei, who was sitting opposite him, and Chen Bo, who was watching the chess, became solemn almost at the same time.

Drinking tea makes people calm and composed, not to mention that they are rare and good tea. Mr. Chen already knew the preciousness of Longjing tea from Li Gefei's words just now. This is a good thing at the tribute level. I guess I will drink it this time in my life.

After a sip, it will be bitter and then sweet. Li Gefei drank the tea from the palace. At this time, the two compared it, and only felt that this boy's Longjing was completely abused by the so-called tributes, and he didn't know why the tea produced in the same place could be different from the best.

"Sir, like this tea?" Yun Yi asked with a smile when he saw his enjoyment.

Li Gefei was not embarrassed and said bluntly: "The fragrance of tea is fragrant and fragrant, so how can I not like it?"

Yun Yi nodded and looked back and shouted, "Qiu Niang, take out half a pound of tea to give it to Mr. Yu."

Li Gefei was stunned when he heard this: "Little Langjun is this?"

Yun Yi smiled and spread his hands: "Sir, I saw this tea is just a thirst-quenching thing for me. Instead of wasting it, it is better to give it to someone who understands it. Of course, if the sir doesn't want it, it's okay. I think Uncle Chen wouldn't refuse."

"Uh..." Li Gefei looked at Uncle Chen, who looked disappointed, and the meaning was self-evident.

Li Gefei wanted to refuse Yi Er, but seeing this, Meng Lang said shamelessly: "Then thank you little brother. I really like this tea very much... But, let's do this, I will give you a gift later, just hope that your brother will not be disgusted."

Drinking tea and playing chess, occasionally chatting about interesting things about tea ceremony. Time flies quickly. Guangsheng at the door reminds: "Master, I'm afraid I'm waiting in a hurry at the Honglu Temple."

Li Gefei suddenly realized that he had some business operations when he came out today. He glanced at Yun Yi, who looked at the calm expression on the other side, and sighed that this young man was young and had a rich experience in his life. At such an age, I am afraid that he would not be able to find a second person.

"Brother Yi also heard that I still have official duties today, so it is really inconvenient to stay for a long time. So I will say goodbye first. How about the game of chess after three days of rest?"

Yun Yi bowed: "It's okay, that kid is waiting for the sir at home for the lord's journey."

"Haha, you're welcome. I'm a little older than me. I don't dare to take it. If I don't dislike you, you and I will be called uncle and nephew."

"Then, Uncle Li?!"

"Hahaha, okay...Don't send it to me!"

Li Gefei smiled and recognized him. He attached great importance to Yun Yi, a young man, and even thought about observing for a while. His daughter was just about to be the age of marriage, so he was a good candidate.

It’s just a pity... Li Gefei felt helpless.

Yun Yi sent them to the door and personally handed them half a pound of Longjing tea wrapped in oil paper, watching them leave.

Returning to the yard, he took a look at the endgame on the chessboard. Yun Yi smiled and put down a few pieces. He saw that the chess that was originally evenly matched suddenly turned over. Yun Yi's black ball was like a big dragon, and he ate Li Gefei's white ball completely.

"Hehe, it's also a bad chess player." Yun Yi shook his head with a smile.

At this time, Uncle Chen's voice came from the gate of the courtyard: "Brother Yi, I have sent the plaque here."

Yun Yi was happy when he heard this and hurriedly came out. Uncle Chen bowed to him and said with a smile: "Brother Yi, look, are you still satisfied?"
