Walking to a Japanese-style room, Inuyama Gamasa, the head of the Inuyama family, led several girls wearing printed kimonos and stood at the door waiting quietly. After seeing Minamoto's child, Inuyama Gamasa stepped forward respectfully and bowed.
"Hello everyone."
The girls behind him also saluted with him, with respectful attitudes and impeccable movements.
Yuan Zhisheng raised his eyebrows slightly, but his expression remained unchanged, "Well, good morning, Master Inuyama, I'm sorry to bother you at this time."
Seeing Minamoto's slightly lowered head, Inuyama Ga's slightly older face showed a smile, "It doesn't matter, as long as you are willing to come, you are always welcome here at Tamamo-mae."
Then he turned sideways and gave way to the space. The girl behind him also stepped aside sensibly, "Everyone, please come inside."
Minamoto nods, then leads the way, followed closely by Inuyama Ga, while Sakura and a few girls follow obediently, keeping a distance.
Entering the Japanese room, Yuan Zhisheng sat down in front of the wooden table. A girl immediately came forward to pour tea. As the white mist rose, the fragrance of the tea overflowed, and soon the room was filled with fragrance.
Inuyama Ga sat opposite Minamoto, with a cup of tea in front of him. In the small tea cup with exquisite shape and elegant lines, a few dark flat tea leaves slowly floated, dyeing the water into a light tea color, and there was a smell.
A faint fragrance wafts out.
For a moment, the Japanese room was quiet, except for the slight sound of the girl gently handling the tea set.
Yuan Zhisheng reached out to pick up the tea cup and took a sip. Then he narrowed his eyes slightly and his expression was calm, as if he was savoring the tea in his mouth.
It is bitter at first and then sweet. After the initial bitter taste subsides, there is a subtle hint of glycol. As the tea enters the throat, the fragrance also overflows in the mouth.
Light and distant, clear and fragrant.
Good tea should be Longjing tea from China.
Yuan Zhisheng judged the origin of the tea in his heart and slowly put down the tea cup. For him, who was once the young master of the Eight Snake Qi Family, he had to learn various things since he was a child. In addition, he would also take time to
To learn something that interests him, and tea tasting is what he has practiced before, including the Chinese and Japanese tea ceremony, the origin of the tea ceremony.
The tea ceremony is the aesthetic way of appreciating tea. It is also regarded as a life art of making tea and drinking tea, a life etiquette using tea as a medium, and a lifestyle of self-cultivation using tea. It makes tea and enjoys tea.
Smelling tea, drinking tea, enhancing friendship, cultivating virtues, learning etiquette, and appreciating traditional virtues are very beneficial and harmonious rituals. Drinking tea can calm the mind and spirit, help cultivate sentiments, and remove distracting thoughts.
It was also under the influence of Tachibana Masamune that Minamoto Chisei fell in love with tea ceremony and started practicing it. Later, he also learned the true meaning of tea ceremony, and used it to cultivate his sentiments and practice kendo.
But he didn't know when the head of the Inuyama family fell in love with drinking tea.
Some distracting thoughts passed through his mind. Yuan Zhisheng looked at Inuyama Ga who took a sip and put down the tea cup like the other person. He smiled softly and said, "I wonder when the Inuyama family master fell in love with drinking tea? This is very difficult for a drunkard like the Inuyama family master.
It’s a hard hobby to like.”
Inuyama Ga also responded with a relaxed expression, "I am getting older and can no longer drink a large amount like I did when I was young. Naturally, I fell in love with this bitter and sweet tea. It is also a good time to throw away impetuousness and calm my mind.
Come down and polish the sword's heart."
Drinking tea can calm the mind, and for a swordsman like Inuyama Ga, it can sharpen his mind and improve his swordsmanship.
Gen Zhisheng nodded slightly, and it was not surprising that Inuyama He thought of him this way. After all, he was also an "A" level hybrid, and his spirit of speech was even more powerful.
While Yuan Zhisheng was thinking about it, Inuyama He spoke again. He asked, "Master, what do you think of this tea?"
Yuan Zhisheng was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and answered after thinking for a moment.
"very nice."
"Yes," Inuyama Ga seemed to be satisfied with his answer and nodded gently, "This tea is light but far away, clear and fragrant, and tastes bitter and then sweet, but it is a good tea."
“Is this China’s Longjing?”
"That's right, Dragon Well. According to legend, in ancient times, a dragon appeared near Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China. Later, the dragon left, leaving behind green tea trees all over the mountain, so it was called Dragon Well."
Listening to Inuyama He slowly explaining the origin of Longjing tea, Yuan Zhisheng couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart.
When did Inuyama Ga know this so well?
It turns out that Inuyama Ga, as the sword master of the Jakiki Hachi family and the head of the Inuyama family, was responsible for Japanese customs and had no chance to come into contact with these things. Moreover, he had always liked drinking, and he could drink a large group of people if he had a good drinker.
It's strange to suddenly like drinking tea now.
"Longjing tea is famous all over the world. I have been admiring it for a long time. I didn't expect to drink it today at the owner of the Inuyama family."
"Just joking, kidding is a big deal, so he should be treated with the best tea." Inuyama Ga said with a smile.
Yuan Zhisheng put away his smile slightly and said, "But, having said that, the head of the Inuyama family was not injured in the attack that day, right?"
"No, no, didn't everyone give condolences that night? It's really okay." A ray of light flashed in Inuyama He's eyes.
He felt that he might have guessed the reason why everyone came to see him.
So he raised his hand and waved lightly, and all the girls kneeling around them respectfully exited the Japanese room. Only he, Yuan Zhisheng and Sakura were left in the Japanese room.
Yuan Zhisheng on the other side had no reaction when he saw this scene. He watched the girls leave quite calmly and closed the wooden door. Sakura on the right rear wanted to leave together, but he raised his hand to stop them.
Sakura is his confidant and is qualified to know everything that happens next.
This is his naive style, employing people with no suspicion and not using others with suspicion.
"It seems that the head of the Inuyama family has guessed the purpose of my coming here." Yuan Zhisheng said with a faint smile.
"Everyone has already talked about this, I can't pretend to be stupid anymore." Inuyama He chuckled.
Since the meeting with Angers, Inuyama He's temper has become better and better. Whether it is his opponents or his goddaughter, as long as he does not do anything wrong, he is approachable most of the time, instead of being as sullen as before.
It's like everyone owes him tens of millions.
Yuan Zhisheng nodded, "Yes, the head of the Inuyama family is the head of the Inuyama family, and cannot be compared to any ordinary person."
"Haha, so does the patriarch. I have a hunch that you, the patriarch, may be the greatest patriarch in the history of the family."
Inuyama Ga responded to Minamoto's compliments with a smile. This was just a business exchange between the two.
Everyone knows it.
I know how to keep the bad words in my stomach, so it is only right to choose some nice words.
After all, they are still in a superior-subordinate relationship and belong to the same family. From what it looks like now, they may join forces in the future, and they cannot lose face no matter what.
Besides, can their affairs be called business blowback?
