Bai Ruozhu secretly guessed that it was probably because of Bai Zepei's expression when he was drinking tea, or because of some previous investigations.

At this time, the maid had already brought the tea set. At this time, there were already the six gentlemen of the tea ceremony, which were the tea cylinder, the teaspoon, the tea strainer, the tea rules, the tea clip, and the tea needle. The set of the six gentlemen of the tea ceremony presented by the Du family was pretty good. But it's not the best either.

Bai Zepei ignored others and washed his hands solemnly, then quickly heated the cup and pot, preheated the tea set, then put the tea leaves, washed the tea, and brewed it...

Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but be fascinated by what she saw. She didn't expect that her second brother's tea ceremony skills were so powerful. Although she was not proficient in this art, she could still see some skills. The most important thing was the magnanimity exuded by her second brother when he was making tea. , is really very elegant and elegant.

She glanced around secretly, and sure enough, other people also looked straight in the eyes, even that Du Zhongshi showed jealousy and unwillingness.

After a while, the tea was brewed. Bai Zepei motioned to the maid to serve it to everyone. Bai Ruozhu also took a cup. She didn't understand tea at all, but she had a keen sense of taste and could still taste the difference. Sure enough, her second brother brewed it. more fragrant.

"Sure enough, he is a good tea artist. He is worthy of being Mr. Xie's favorite disciple." After tasting the tea, Mr. Du tasted it carefully for a long time and then said with a big smile.

Du Wenyu also echoed: "What Dad said is absolutely true. I really opened my eyes today. This kid Zhong Shi is usually too arrogant. Is he aware that there is someone else outside today?"

Du Zhongshi's face turned red from suppressing it, and he was speechless for a long time. Finally, he muttered unwillingly: "What's so proud about a servant doing something like making tea?"

"Nonsense!" Mr. Du shouted sternly, "How much do you know about literati? This is called elegance, do you understand?"

"Then making tea like the moon is good, isn't it also called elegant?" Du Zhongshi continued to argue.

Bai Ruozhu asked: "Who is Ruyue? Is he the one who cooked tea for us for the first time?"

Because of her sudden question, Mr. Du could only swallow it back if he wanted to scold Du Zhongshi.

Du Zhongshi said very proudly: "Ruyue is my maid. She is not only good at making tea, but also good at nvhong, cooking, and piano skills. You won't understand it yourself."

Bai Ruozhu suddenly laughed after hearing this, "Oh, it turns out she is a maid who is proficient in everything." No wonder Du Zhongshi was so proud. It turned out to be his eldest maid. She seemed to be talking like his wife, but she really might have been him. of people.

Du Wenyu's expression changed, and the irony in Bai Ruozhu's eyes stung his eyes. He glared at Du Zhongshi and said, "Ruyue Tea Ceremony is not good, but there is room for improvement. Stop bragging here."

Du Zhongshi wanted to speak, but Bai Ruozhu said with a smile: "Yes, if second master Ruruo wants Ruyue to take a further step in the tea ceremony, why not let her specialize in this art and take her out in the future so that she can really gain face for you."

Mr. Du's expression also changed, and he said to Du Zhongshi impatiently: "Go out and don't cause trouble here."

He originally wanted to help the Bai brothers and sisters show their faces, but he didn't want to make the Du family lose face. He couldn't blame the Bai family girl for being mean. After all, Du Zhongshi was short-sighted. He sighed slightly, alas, who told him to be ignorant and incompetent?

Generally, in a truly wealthy family, the real employees perform their own duties. For example, when a noble girl gets married, she will bring several maids. One of them is good at cooking, one is good at embroidery, one is good at tea ceremony, and one is good at dressing up. According to the famous family, According to the rules of the nobility, the more a maid is good at everything, the more she is good at nothing.

Think about it, can a maid receive the same training as a noble lady? Even if she could, her main job was to serve her master, how much time would she have to practice in a day? It's okay if you specialize in one or two things, but it's very difficult to master everything, at least not to the point where you can gain face from your master.

But Du Zhongshi didn't know this at all, and he proudly boasted that his maid was very capable and was good at a lot of things. As a result, he lost to Bai Zepei in the tea ceremony. Wasn't it a slap in the face?

Mr. Du was in a very bad mood at the moment, but he couldn't blame Bai Ruozhu. He was merciful and didn't expose the matter. Unfortunately, his second grandson couldn't even figure it out.

"Zhong Shi is young and energetic. Don't take it to heart if you want to save face for the old man." Mr. Du quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile to the Bai brothers and sisters.

"The old man's words are serious, we won't take them to heart." Bai Zepei said.

Bai Ruozhu also smiled and said: "The second young master is young and energetic. I have forgotten about it after hearing about it." Being young and energetic can be considered young and ignorant. For an ignorant and naive boy, will she be as knowledgeable as him?

Du Wenyu frowned slightly. No matter how calm he was, he could still hear what Bai Ruozhu meant, and he couldn't hide it anymore.

"Haha, young people need to be aggressive, and you are very good. One is good at reading, and the other is good at medicine. You are really a formidable young man." After all, Jiang is still more mature, Mr. Du said with a smile as if nothing happened.

"The old man is so complimentary." Bai Ruozhu said politely and waited for the old man to get to the point. He didn't expect that it took so long.

Mr. Du stroked his gray beard, with a glint in his eyes, and said to Bai Ruozhu: "Zhong Shu, the boy, met Miss Bai by mistake at the beginning. Now the toothpaste business is getting better and better. I have to trust him." What a blessing to Miss Bai.”

Bai Ruozhu smiled and said, "The old man is serious. Without the Du family's management and your business network, the toothpaste would never have the sales volume it has today, so I don't deserve any credit."

Mr. Du smiled and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Miss Bai is really calm and humble. It is really a great blessing for our Du family to have a partner like you."

Look, if you're wearing a high hat, it's definitely up to you!

"We want to cooperate for a long time, and we can also expand the scope of our business. Who would think that we can make a lot of money?" Mr. Du added, "I wonder if Miss Bai has any other rare recipes. I will personally take charge in the future to ensure that Things are running better.”

Bai Ruozhu sneered in her heart. Mr. Du was indeed greedy. Even toothpaste couldn't satisfy his appetite. He was already trying to get other tricks from her.

She had no background and her family was very short of money, so she was willing to cooperate with Du Zhongshu. But good recipes are very rare. If she wants to do it again in the future, why must she cooperate with the Du family? Doesn’t she have a business acumen herself?

Besides, if she really wanted to choose a partner, she wouldn't have a better choice.

"Where can I find such a rare recipe? Just thinking about improving the toothpaste recipe is enough to give me a headache. There is really nothing else I can do." Bai Ruozhu pretended to look embarrassed and shook his head.
