"Madam, Mrs. Kang has sent another invitation to the doorman, inviting you to a gathering at Qingle Teahouse." Chuntao came in through the curtain and said to Liu Yuefu.

Liu Yuefu stopped making the cakes in her hand and said, "Let me see the post."

Chuntao handed the post to Liu Yuefu.

"Hmm...this new snowflake crisp is good." Liu Yuefu was reading the post while eating snacks.

Liu Yuefu wiped her hands with a handkerchief, walked to the desk, picked up the brush, and wrote a reply.

"Chun Tao, please send someone to return this note to her tomorrow." Liu Yuefu handed the note in her hand to Chun Tao.

"Yes." Chuntao responded.

The day Kang Miaoqing had agreed upon happened to be Li Jianzhang's day off.

Liu Yuefu had just finished dressing up and walked out of Yuehuaju when she met Li Jianzhang walking towards her.

"Ma'am, where are you going?"

"Miaoqing asked me to go to Yueqing Teahouse today to have tea, listen to books and get together. My dear, is there something you want to see me about?" Liu Yuefu replied with a smile.

"What a coincidence! I have a day off today. I have been busy with official business at the Dali Temple recently and have not had much time to accompany you. I was planning to take advantage of today's day off to sit in your courtyard and accompany you." Li Jianzhang smiled gently and said, "I wonder if I can go to this teahouse with my wife?"

Liu Yuefu pretended to be embarrassed and said, "After all, you are a stranger and Miaoqing is not married yet, so it may be inconvenient."

"Your sister is like my sister. I think Sister Miaoqing won't mind. I just want to accompany my wife." Li Jianzhang said frankly.

Liu Yuefu felt cold in her heart. Did she really just want to accompany me? Was she really just a younger sister? I'm afraid not.

When Liu Yuefu thought of her previous life, Li Jianzhang said the same thing.

"I just treat Miaoqing as my sister, don't think too much about it."

The face of Li Jianzhang when he said this in Yuehuaju in his previous life overlapped with the face of Li Jianzhang at this moment.

Yes, in the previous life, Li Jianzhang was not shy about being with Kang Miaoqing, but she believed him. She just thought he treated Kang Miaoqing as a sister and didn't think much about it.

This time, let them develop their relationship if they want. Liu Yuefu doesn't want to care. Does he deserve to be jealous of such a scumbag?

It would be best if the two of them could get rid of that evil son of Li Mingde.

This can also become a bargaining chip for reconciliation between himself and Li Jianzhang.

Before his legitimate son was born, he secretly pampered his concubine, who gave birth to his eldest illegitimate son.

Wasn't that how they were in their previous lives?

Liu Yuefu recalled the scene that her soul saw when it was wandering above the Li family.

The scene of Kang Miaoqing and Li Mingde meeting in the back garden.

"Mother is so happy to see Mingde is so successful now. From now on, everything in the Li family will belong to our Mingde." Kang Miaoqing said to Li Mingde with satisfaction.

"Mother, Mingde will try his best and will never let you down. Now that woman is dead, no one can separate us mother and son." Tears flashed in Li Mingde's eyes.

"Yes, that's great. From now on, my mother will be your legitimate mother." Kang Miaoqing said with a smile.

"Madam, let's go." Li Jianzhang said.

When Liu Yuefu heard this, she stopped thinking and said, "Okay."

The two of them rode in a carriage and soon arrived at the Yueqing Teahouse.

Yueqing Teahouse is well-known in the downtown area of ​​South City. It is located on the famous Tea Street in South City. Teahouses are lined up on both sides of the street. The aroma of tea is everywhere on the Tea Street, and tea drinkers are coming in an endless stream.

On the Tea Street, there are tea shops and small stalls on the roadside, where scholars, peddlers and hawkers chat and laugh, making the place bustling and lively.

The carriage drove all the way to the entrance of Tea Street. "My dear, my dear, there are too many people in front of us. The carriage can't pass through." Chuntao shouted into the carriage.

"Then let's walk." Li Jianzhang said.

Li Jianzhang and Liu Yuefu got off the carriage one after another and walked towards the tea street.

After walking for a while, I saw the sign of Yueqing Teahouse. There was a small bamboo forest outside. It was rare to see such green in winter.

Walking along the path at the entrance and entering the house, you will see many calligraphy and painting works by famous artists hanging in the teahouse, which are very elegant.

Kang Miaoqing had already arrived and was sitting in the hall waiting for Liu Yuefu. When she saw Li Jianzhang was there too, her eyes lit up.

"Didn't keep you waiting for long?" Liu Yuefu said with a slightly apologetic smile.

"No, I just arrived a while ago. Sister, you came at the right time." Kang Miaoqing smiled and walked forward, holding Liu Yuefu's arm and said.

She naturally stood between Liu Yuefu and Li Jianzhang.

Many similar scenes from her past life flashed through Liu Yuefu's mind. Everything seemed to be the same as before, except that her past self was too slow.

"Haven't you booked a private room today?" Liu Yuefu asked.

"No, it's not convenient to listen to stories in the private room. The storyteller at Qingle Teahouse is going to tell the story of "A Cave of Ghosts in Shanxi" today." Kang Miaoqing said with a smile.

Could it be that Kang Miaoqing had planned all this, specifically choosing the day when Li Jianzhang was on leave to invite me over?

Liu Yuefu said calmly: "This is also good."

"Sister Miaoqing, do you like to read the book?" Li Jianzhang asked with a smile.

"Yeah, I love listening to and reading those miscellaneous books." Kang Miaoqing smiled and covered her sleeves.

"What kind of books does your sister like to read?"

"They are just some miscellaneous books, not worthy of being shown on the table. I just like to read and listen to these stories about talented men and beautiful women, gods and ghosts, just for fun." Kang Miaoqing tilted her head slightly and said coquettishly.

"Sister, you must be being modest. Everyone knows your talent and reputation among the people," Li Jianzhang said with a smile.

Liu Yuefu couldn't get a word in when the two of them were talking.

Liu Yuefu had no choice but to silently pick up the Xiaolongtuan and slowly bake the tea cake over a low fire, which would make the tea's aroma more intense while removing the watery taste and bitterness. She then used a tea grinder to finely grind the roasted tea cake into powder, and then used silk gauze to sift the tea powder, filtering out impurities and leaving only the fine tea powder.

Then, Liu Yuefu put the mountain spring water prepared in the teahouse into the soup pot and boiled it. This is the most critical step. When the spring water is boiling, the soup pot must be removed from the fire, otherwise, the water will be old and the tea will be bitter.

Liu Yuefu uses boiling water to wash the teacups, which will keep the cups at a certain temperature and make the tea fragrant.

Then put the tea powder in a teacup and add a small amount of boiling water to make it into a paste.

Liu Yuefu poured boiling water from the kettle into the teacup and stirred it rhythmically back and forth with a bamboo tea whisk until a layer of foam appeared on the surface of the tea.

Liu Yuefu used tea to draw a picture of orchids.

The two people on the other side were still chatting and laughing.

A waiter walked by with a plate in his hand. Li Jianzhang quickly stretched out his hand to protect Kang Miaoqing to prevent her from being bumped into, but he completely ignored Liu Yuefu who was standing beside him.

Liu Yuefu recalled that when they had just gotten engaged, they went to a restaurant for dinner and Li Jianzhang protected her in the same way.

"I've ordered the tea." Liu Yuefu said.

In the previous life, it was also like this. Liu Yuefu was always the one making tea, arranging dishes, and entertaining them.

After hearing Liu Yuefu's words, the two people on the other side separated.

"I'm just afraid that the waiter might offend Sister Miaoqing." Li Jianzhang made up for it when he saw Liu Yuefu saw this scene.

"I know." Liu Yuefu smiled pretending to be magnanimous.

Chun Tao came over in a hurry, "Madam, there is something urgent that needs your help at the grocery store."

"What's the matter? Why is it so urgent? Miaoqing and I are just having tea."

"I don't know. The shopkeeper insists that you go there."

Liu Yuefu smiled apologetically, "In that case, I'm sorry, I have to go deal with it first. My dear, you can stay here and listen to the book with Sister Miaoqing, and relax. You have been very hard at the Dali Temple during this period of time."

After saying that, Liu Yuefu turned and walked out of the teahouse. The smile on her face disappeared in an instant, leaving only a pair of cold eyes.
