It is sweet in the mouth and bitter with endless aftertaste.
I'm afraid he must have invested the capital to learn how to make tea. Otherwise, how could a foreigner learn such an essential part of the tea ceremony?
"William, have you been practicing tea ceremony for some time?" Shen Qingqing put down her tea cup and looked at Ou Qing with a smile on her face, "It seems that I will have to take a good look at you from now on. I thought you were a foreigner, so this I’m not very familiar with Zhong, but I didn’t expect you to be better at tea ceremony than me.”
"It's because my father likes tea ceremony, that's why I went to learn it." Ou Qing explained lightly, "In order to learn tea ceremony, I even went to Japan, but he didn't like it. In the end, I found him in Sioux City. A master taught me for two years before I reached my current level."
"Oh?" Shen Qingqing smiled and said, "It seems that your Count William is quite knowledgeable about our culture. I will have to meet him someday if I have the opportunity."
"There's a chance." Ou Qing smiled.
Shen Qingqing drank tea and looked at the yard in the distance, with a tranquil atmosphere in her eyes.
Ou Qing looked at her, as if the darkness in his heart had been driven away.
"However, Earl William is an authentic Englishman. Shouldn't he love the British royal afternoon tea more? How could he like our tea ceremony?" Shen Qingqing spoke lightly, expressing her doubts.
"My father said that it was because an old friend of his made delicious tea, so he became addicted to it." Ou Qing said, "Actually, I think what my father remembered was what the old friend said to him. A word!"
"What words?" Shen Qingqing asked.
"One period and one period should be cherished in this life." Ou Qing replied.
When Shen Qingqing heard this, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly and her gaze softened, "This is a sentence written by Naoki Ii, a famous Japanese tea master at the end of the Edo period, in the "Tea Ceremony Collection". The tea ceremony is said to be one session at a time."
Ou Qing was slightly startled. He thought she shouldn't know about such a niche thing. He smiled and said gently, "You actually know?"
"I know a little, not much." Shen Qingqing also smiled, "A lifetime is short, and if you are not careful, it may be gone."
Then the two of them fell into silence again. In the yard, the gentle wind blew, carrying a faint fragrance of flowers.
After sitting for a long time, Shen Qingqing's body was already a little chilly, and the fingertips holding the teacup turned a little white.
Ou Qing looked at Shen Qingqing and smiled, then took off his suit and wrapped it around her, taking Shen Qingqing's slightly cold body into his arms.
Shen Qingqing didn't say anything, just let him hold her, her clear eyes reflected the sunset in the distance.
Then, a low voice sounded above her head, so gentle that it was drowning, "Qingqing, meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life. You are the warm sunshine of my life."
He lowered his head and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead with his cool lips.
So no matter what happens, I will let you get hurt a little, this is my promise to you.
Shen Qingqing suddenly raised her head and looked at his side face. The sound of his heartbeat came to her ears. She suddenly smiled, and the sunset sun fell into her clear eyes, which was as bright as starlight.
"It's getting cold, let's go back to the house."
Shen Qingqing smiled, but with a smile on her face, she looked at Ou Qing, her voice was soft and soft, "I'm tired and can't walk."
Ou Qing was stunned for a long time before he understood what she meant. With a smile on his face, he said, "Then I will carry you?"
