Chapter four hundred and ninety-ninth is too much
Fried tea...barely it is a state affairs?
After all, in order for the people of the Tang Dynasty to drink tea that is worry-free and not so weird from then on, the Li family made some personal gains from it, which was both great sentimental and good at making money, and there was no delay in the family, country and the world.
In this way, Li Su is indeed worried about state affairs because... he doesn't remember how to fry it.
The procedures for stir-frying tea are not complicated, but no one of them can be missing. In fact, in the rural areas of my previous life, many farmers would fry tea by themselves because it was very simple, it was nothing more than just spreading green, finishing the green, and Titian. Li Su was also lucky to visit local farmers' homes. The tea they brought out to the hospitality was fried by themselves. The customs and folk customs of different places were different. Some hospitality liked to put some fried sesame seeds in the tea, and some liked to put some peppers, but the tea inside was genuine and produced by itself.
Unfortunately, Li Su's knowledge of this technique was just half a bucket of water. In his memory of his previous life, the aspect of stir-frying tea was too fragmented, and it was not coherent for a long time. Therefore, the fried tea leaves were immediately filled with frustration.
The fragrance of tea is constantly wafting out from the kitchen. It is the fragrance emitted by fresh tea leaves after being baked by fire. However, the fragrance is strong and light. If anyone who knows how to do it, it will naturally be able to see that there is something wrong with the baking temperature. Sometimes it is too light and sometimes it is too heavy. If you don’t grasp the heat, the tea will naturally fail.
The general direction is right, but Li Su couldn't define them and did not master the heat of each step well. So he fryed the scrapped tea one basket after another. Fortunately, they were all unparalleled items picked on the mountain, so he didn't feel sorry for throwing it away.
After more than two hours of tossing in the kitchen, from noon to dusk, Li Dao was squatting outside the kitchen yard and sighing. He found that his son was a little crazy today and hesitated whether to invite Master Sun to the house to see his son. Xu Mingzhu stood in the yard, staring blankly at the waste tea leaves all over the floor.
Butler Xue walked over and asked respectfully in front of Li Daozheng whether to have a meal. Today, Li Su occupied the kitchen, and the dinner in the Li family was made by the cook who was wronged and built a stove in the front yard.
Li Daozheng waved his hand, got up and went to the front yard, took two steps and stopped, and ordered: "Don't disturb him, wait until he is hungry and comes out naturally, and the food is hot and it's enough to keep a serving."
Butler Xue agreed and turned around and invited Xu Mingzhu. Xu Mingzhu's white teeth bit her lower lip and shook her head at Butler Xue. Then she gently lifted the lotus step and walked towards the kitchen.
The kitchen has been lit, and the fire in the stove is very strong, and the red tongue of flames is sucking and spitting out from time to time, reflecting Li Su's red and expressionless handsome face.
Xu Mingzhu hesitated for a moment and said, "Husband..."
Li Su turned around and was stunned, then smiled and said, "Madam is here, it's dirty and dark inside. Madam, go out quickly."
Xu Mingzhu shook her head and said, "You are so clean and don't care about being dirty, what are you afraid of?"
After a pause, Xu Mingzhu watched Li Su stir-fry tea with a big shovel, and couldn't help but say curiously: "Husband, are you... trying to cook new dishes?"
"New dish?" Li Su was stunned and then smiled, "It's not a dish. It's tea. Didn't you see that this is tea?"
Xu Mingzhu blinked: "I'm also strange. I thought my husband wanted to treat tea as wild vegetables. My husband's mind was really lively. The tea was really delicious after being fryed in the pot. Maybe... it's good to eat as a dish."
Li Su laughed: "Maybe some people will eat it as a dish thousands of years later, but nowadays, tea is tea, which can be drunk by water."
Xu Mingzhu blinked her clear big eyes and pointed to the tea leaves and said, "Can these fried tea leaves be soaked in water and drink it? Husband, don't deceive me that I have no knowledge. I actually learned a little tea ceremony before I got married. Where can I stir-fry tea leaves? Even if I have to drink it, I should also be accompanied by many seasonings. When boiling and cooking, it is the tea soup. The fried tea leaves..."
Li Su paused his hand, turned to look at her, and said, "There will never be words like 'can't' and 'shouldn't' in the world. 'can't' and 'shouldn' are frames set by the predecessors for future generations. If you don't break it, you can only live in the shackles of these frames. What you think, what you eat and use are all things from the predecessors, and you can only live under the shadow of the predecessors. After a lifetime, we will also become predecessors. Such a life is meaningless."
Xu Mingzhu blinked, and seemed to understand Li Su's words, but just subconsciously nodded in agreement, then pointed to the tea leaves and said, "So, husband wants to create a new way to drink tea?"
"Yes, the so-called tea ceremony is now qualified to enjoy by elegant and famous scholars or powerful families. It is also very far-fetched to be related to the Confucian artistic conception, but ordinary people have no connection with it. All the physics in the world should be used by all spirits in the world, so I want to create a simple way to drink tea."
"Fried tea...can you drink it?"
"Yes." Li Su smiled, and soon turned his face bitter again, sighing: "But I haven't been sure about this time, I'm afraid I have to think about it for a while."
Xu Mingzhu hesitated for a moment and said, "Husband, stir-frying tea should be similar to cooking dishes? I saw that the fire in the stove is so strong, but I heard that the principle of "too much is not enough". Should I try it... Uh, make the fire smaller and stir-fry slowly over the heat, and be irritated?"
"Uh..." Li Su was shocked, and then his face was a little hot.
It's shameless, so shameless. Such a simple truth is actually reminded by an ancient woman to understand. Li Su vaguely seemed to see that she was tied to a large pillar by countless descendants without any trace. The word "shame" was engraved on the pillar...
"Mrs. I was very reminded. Maybe I was too eager to succeed. I cooked oil in the fire and the flowers were covered with brocade, but I also knew the reason why it was too much or too much..." Li Su hugged Xu Mingzhu's slender waist, slapped her pretty face hard, and laughed: "If this tea is done, it will be thankful to the lady. In the future, I will call it 'Pearl Tea' to pass on it forever."
Xu Mingzhu was both happy and ashamed, and glanced at him with anger, pursed her lips and lowered her head and chuckled, and a light of joy flashed in her bright and beautiful eyes.
"Pearl Tea..." Xu Mingzhu murmured several times, and her expression became more and more joyful.
"Yes, Mingzhu Tea, Madam, this tea will definitely be passed down through the ages, and Madam can also leave a name in history."
Xu Mingzhu smiled and said, "I am a wife, why does it matter whether I leave a name or not? It is obviously the thought that my husband has spent, so I can't let me steal the credit. It's better if I have the intention, but I can't name it."
