Chapter 77 Talking and laughing with great scholars
In the picture "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", there is a teahouse for tea tasting. After a few people entered, a young man wearing glasses winked at the counter. Without seeing him say a word, he saw a person standing behind everyone.
The waiter in Song Dynasty clothes said a long blessing to everyone, and the elegant sound of the guqin played in front of the hall. A foreman came to the front desk and lit a burner of incense. The tea master carried a large teapot with a handle over one meter long and started the tea ceremony.
Performance.
Jin Huabin looked around the room. There were several freehand landscape paintings imitating the literati style of the Song Dynasty hanging on the walls. The characters, flowers and birds were all just a few simple strokes, but they wanted to be similar in spirit, not in form.
The performers were several women wearing long skirts. After saying hello to the guests, they began to perform the tea ceremony formally. It was obvious that they had received professional training. When they saluted, the angle of their eyes and the softness of their movements,
The coherence and amplitude of the swing are all quite satisfactory.
After the ceremony, the main brewer uses a long-handled teapot to brew tea into the guests' cups, while saying auspicious tea greetings, while the assistant brewer removes the lid of the teacup for the guests, puts the tea leaves, and serves tea to the guests.
Serve tea.
The leading old man said: "Drinking tea pays attention to "essence, purity, purity and beauty." Essence includes famous tea, special tea, dry tea, and high quality. The water must be good, and the tea set must be of high quality to match the tea. For tea art
For a teacher, mastery means excellence, brewing a cup of high-quality tea soup that will impress people. Mastery includes proficiency, proficiency in tea art performance, proficiency in tea selection, setting utensils, water selection, tea storage, and proficiency in brewing procedures. p>
Qing includes people, water and the refreshing environment. Tea can clear the mind, which is called refreshing. "Qing", a clear mind, helps people think and feel the difficulty of getting together to enjoy tea. Each
This kind of simple tea utensils, the activity of drinking tea is unconsciously, brushing away the dust in people's soul, and the mind is clear and natural.
Cleanliness includes people, clothing, environment, tea, tea utensils, water, etc. People's cleanliness, such as clean hands, combed hair, clean and tidy clothes, tables, chairs, and benches free of dust, and places free of debris and dirt. Tea sets should be
Washing is clean, the water should be clean and meet drinking requirements, and the tea should be clean and free of debris. In addition, it is the purification of people's thoughts and souls, free of distracting thoughts and evil thoughts.
It should conform to the beauty of the tea ceremony and meet the requirements of ornamental aesthetics, such as clothing that fits well, is decent and generous, the environment is beautiful and refreshing, whether the tea utensils are matching, whether the environment is beautifully decorated, etc."
At this point, when he saw Jin Huabin drinking tea with his head down, he suddenly moved and asked: "This little brother has done some research on the architecture of the Song Dynasty. I have a small question that has nothing to do with architecture. Is it okay?"<
/p>
"The elders have their orders, how dare you disobey them?" Jin Huabin stood up and made a long bow like the ancients did.
"Little brother, please taste the fragrant tea in front of you and give your opinion?" The elder pointed at the tea in the cup and said, "Little brother, can you taste the source?"
This is a dilemma. Jin Huabin has no research on tea. At most, he only knows whether it is black tea or green tea. As long as it is not very bad, the quality in his mouth is the same. However, the elder's eyes are very eager and he cannot refuse.
.
The tea is green tea, but before brewing, the shape is like an unopened chrysanthemum, which is spherical and definitely not flat like Longjing. Jin Huabin’s limited knowledge of what kind of tea it is, and I really can’t tell. In general terms, how fragrant the tea is?
No matter how good the result is, the flattery will be slapped on the horse's hooves and he will not be able to get off the stage. He was about to give up simply, but saw the elder's eyes were very strange. He tasted it again and found that the taste was a little different from ordinary green tea. p>
Hengdian is expanding the Qingming Riverside Scenic Area. Maybe this tea is related to it and is a supporting cultural program. What historical figures are related to it? Jin Huabin thought for a long time, remembered a story, and blurted out: "Could this tea be...
The famous Northern Song Dynasty tea Dragon and Phoenix Tea made according to ancient methods?"
The reason why he remembered the name of the tea was that he remembered that "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" was a masterpiece by Zhang Zerui, a famous court painter in the Northern Song Dynasty. Ding Wei, who was an official at the same time as Zhang Zerui, reformed the tea policy during this period and invented the Song Dynasty.
Dragon and Phoenix Tea is known as the first famous tea, and the tea-making process is recorded in the form of poetry. The famous tea of the Northern Song Dynasty is paired with the famous paintings of the Northern Song Dynasty, which is full of the characteristics of the era.
"Sure enough, he is an elegant scholar, he can actually taste the name of this tea." The elder laughed and talked about the tea allusion: "Ding Wei hosted the Beiyuan Tribute Tea when he was the transfer envoy to Fujian. He wrote in "Beiyuan"
The production of Beiyuan Longbao was introduced in the preface of "Baixin Tea", that is, "There are seventy and a half counties producing tea in the world, and tribute is paid every year. They are all named after Sheqian and Huoqian, which is not true. Only Jianzhou
The tea was roasted, and there were thirty-six roasts. Among the thirty-six, Beiyuan bloomed early and tasted particularly good. The buds were picked on the fifteenth day before the commune, and thousands of workers worked every day to build it, forcing the commune to pay tribute.
The workmanship is very large and the production is very sophisticated, which are all recorded in the "Jian'an Tea Records" written by him, and he still writes poems to highlight his events." His poem "Beiyuan Baked New Tea" says: "Beiyuan Dragon Tea is the most delicious and sweet tea.
There are only a few in the four directions, and everything is no longer new. It is just a faint green, with a little bit of spring for the first time. It is scattered all over the trees, and it is picked up frequently on the mountain. The cold leaves are still there, and the fragrant buds are still cold. The mouth of Maoci Creek is roasting, and the basket is
The people in the cage are caught in the rain. They are long-term, hooked and cute, and split into two parts. The bird's tongue is steaming with smoke, and the dew is stacked on the dragon's scale. Pay tribute to win all the ways, taste only one person first. Look under the palace with seals, and send a message across the riverside.
.It is specially intended to keep the elixir forbidden, and it is a special gift to the ministers. Sip it as a spiritual medicine to help, and use it with your relatives. The first time the beauty is exhausted, the first cooking smell is mellow. The fine fragrance is better than the musk deer, and the light color is too bright. Gu Zhu is ashamed to throw himself into the wood.
Yidu is ashamed of having accumulated salary. The title of the year is given to the emperor, and the natural production is strong, Ou and Min."
To be able to memorize such a long poem word for word with perfect pronunciation and eloquent text is a staggering skill in classical Chinese.
"Ding said he was a treacherous minister, and the idiom about flattering him was written about him. However, he was also an unparalleled talent and capable minister in finance and taxation, civil engineering, tea, poetry, songs, etc. He was always slipping away at the same time, and it is difficult to determine his merits and demerits through the ages.
"The elder expressed emotion.
The relevant content of "Construction Program" was copied. After collecting it, the young man left a business card for them. He was the clerk of the Municipal Tourism Bureau. He said that after copying the entire article and sending it to him, he hurriedly took them away.
.
These old men in Chinese tunic suits have profound knowledge of ancient Chinese and have a good relationship with the tourism bureau. However, they both asked for a copy of "The Creation Method" and did not give their contact information. Their acting style was weird. After all, they
What kind of mysterious guests are they? Jin Huabin couldn’t figure out their identities even after racking his brains.
"Don't think about it if you can't think of it. The bidding will be held tomorrow afternoon. Let's prepare relevant materials and try to express our cultural intentions more fully." Zhang Guifang looked at him thinking hard and reminded: "It's temporary.
It's better to hug the Buddha than not to hug him at all. Maybe the gods and Buddhas will take a fancy to our sincerity."
The next day, the bidding meeting began. When Jin Huabin looked at the judges' table, his head buzzed. The gods and Buddhas were alive. The old men who had tea together yesterday were all sitting on the table.
