Chapter 17 Taking risks (2)

Liu Sanwu, Liu Yi's cousin's uncle, is the only relative of the old Liu family with some status. He is a landlord with a hundred acres of fertile land in Sanyuan County and is quite famous. However, Liu Yi has never seen him because Liu Laoshi is not very good at dealing with Liu Sanwu.

Liu Yi didn't know the grudges of it. Anyway, since Liu Yi's short-lived grandfather passed away, the old Liu family stopped all contacts with Liu Sanwu's family. Liu Sanwu was so happy that he had no poor relatives to come to the house, nor did he come to the old Liu family again. The relationship between the two families was put there.

But today, the old Liu family is in trouble, and the only relative who is most likely to be able to help is Liu Sanwu.

So, Liu Yiu came to the door.

Liu Yi's clothes are very shabby today, with a yellowish long gown, and a pair of palm-sized flower patches on her buttocks. They are a typical poor family dress.

I thought that wearing such clothes would be rejected in front of Liu Sanwu's house, but the development of things was beyond Liu Yi's expectations. The butler in Liu's house was very enthusiastic and almost flattered to welcome Liu Yi to the main hall of Liu Yi. Liu Sanwu sat there and smiled.

Unlike the fat master Liu Yi imagined, Liu Sanwu is actually a vigorous and thin old man with dark thick eyebrows, pleated face, and a half-white goatee. I have to say that Liu Sanwu looks very distinctive.

Liu Yi took two steps forward, bent over to Liu Sanwu and said, "I have met my uncle, Yi Yi has paid you a blessing!"

Liu Sanwu nodded and said, "You are Liu Laoshi's eldest son? You have grown up so old in just a few years? Just sit there, we are all from the same ancestor, and you don't have to be too restricted when you get here."

"Thank you, uncle, you will get over the hairpin." Liu Yi bowed again and sat down at the first seat of Liu Sanwu.

Liu Sanwu nodded, signaled his servant to bring the tea, and said to Liu Yi: "This is Qingcheng tea that has just been transported from Bashu. How do you try it?"

Liu Yi nodded and thanked her. He reached out and picked up the celadon tea bowl on the table, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it. A faint fragrance floated into his lungs. Liu Yi evaluated this kind of tea in his heart. Its fragrance was average and its color was only between the middle and the lower. Although it was Qingcheng tea, it was far from Qingcheng Xuebu.

Of course, these truths cannot be said when you pass by the door and be a guest. Moreover, Liu Sanwu is also a tea lover, so he cannot use these words to attack him.

Taking a sip with his lips, Liu Yi praised: "Fresh, natural, poverty contains a faint sweetness, good tea!"

Liu Sanwu's eyes lit up, and a flower appeared on his face, and said, "From your words, you can tell that you are also a tea lover. You are not as good as those little kids in your family. You only know how to drink cows and waste natural resources. I still have some of these teas. You can bring some when you go back."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiu stood up and said respectfully: "Uncle Xie is very loving, but Yi Yi came here not for these teas, but for something important. My father."

Liu Sanwu reached out to stop Liu Yiu's words and said, "I already know your parents' affairs, and I also know the purpose of your coming here. Don't worry, although your father is a little unfamiliar with me, our two families are still blood-related relatives after all, and I will not stand by and watch. Last night, I sent someone to the government office to establish a relationship. They will not suffer any grievances in the cell for the time being. As for the lawsuit, someone has already gone to handle the matter. I think they will be able to come out soon. You don't have to worry too much."

Surprisingly, Liu Yi was very surprised. He did not expect a cousin who had not been in contact for more than ten years to help him so enthusiastically. If this is something that he would never dare to think about in modern times. Liu Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, ah! The hearts of ancient people are good!

"Thank you for your help. Your kindness will be remembered in your heart and will be rewarded in the future!" As soon as you bowed to the ground, Liu Yi's expression seemed very sincere.

"No need to do this. I help you just because both of you and my family are from the Liu family and belong to the same clan. I can't bear to see you suffer from prison, not to repay you." Liu Sanwu signaled Liu Yi to sit down and said, "If you are sorry, just have a few cups of tea with me here. Now, there are not many young people who know tea like you, and love tea."

Liu Sanwu stood up and walked to Liu Yi's side, picked up the teapot and poured another cup into another empty cup, handed it to Liu Yi and said, "You taste it again now. Is the taste of this tea different from what I just now?"

Liu Yi quickly took it with both hands, poured it into his stomach, closed his eyes and savored it afterwards, and then said: "It's bitter in the mouth, fragrant in the belly, rich in the taste, and fragrant in the teeth. This tea is indeed different from before, with a little more heavy and less impetuous."

Liu Sanwu smiled and said, "I did not read it wrong. You are indeed good at tea ceremony." Then he explained to himself: "The first cup of tea leaves has not yet fully expanded, so the tea water poured only has the aroma of tea but no tea flavor. You can drink a little sweetness because the water used to make tea is sweet spring."

"The second cup is the essence of Qingcheng tea. You can express its taste and characteristics in one sip, which shows that you have a profound research on this. Unfortunately, such a good tea friend can only drink it with me this time."

Liu Sanwu finally started to sigh loudly, looking at Liu Yi's eyes as if he was looking at a dead person.

Liu Yi's face remained unchanged. She sat there quietly, picked up the teapot and poured another empty cup on it, put it in front of her nose and smelled it lightly, and said, "Yes, this may be the first time we have had tea with the last time we have had tea together. It's a pity, uncle and grandpa."

"Liu Yiu!" Liu Sanwu's eyes flashed coldly and he said sinisterly: "After drinking two cups of Duan Zen Powder, you still have such leisure and leisure, which is really admirable. I just don't know if you still have this leisure when the medicine is inflicted?"

Liu Yi looked at Liu Sanwu with a funny look, and his eyes were full of pity. He slowly said, "My father told me before that Liu Sanwu is the most snobbish and extremely stingy. He would beat his son for a copper coin, and would also destroy his relatives for half a pancake. Imagine how could such a person warmly entertain a poor relative who had broken off and make him a pot of Qingcheng tea with a total of one tael of silver?"

"But you still drank it? Didn't you?" Liu Sanwu was not scared by Liu Yi's words. He still said with joy: "Everyone will do it afterwards, but this will not save you. You must die here today."
