It’s the best season for tea picking once a year. Tea is best before the dawn and before the rain. So every season is the busiest time for Duan’s family. This year, Duanqing will test a tea master , although Duan Jingyuan gave him the tea garden of the Duan family, the famous saying that he must always inherit it is correct. He can't inherit the tea garden without being a master tea maker. How can others be convinced like this.

Duan Jingyuan also agreed, the master of tea making must be tested, as an heir he must understand the whole process of tea making, even if he fails the test, he has to go through the whole process.

The assessment time was set before the Ching Ming Festival, and Duanqing's programs were recorded in advance. They had 5 days in a row with the Ching Ming Festival holiday. for a few days.

Duan Xuan, Ye Hua, Han Yu and the others also came to join in the fun, mainly because the children want to come out to play, so let's go to the tea garden to play together.The Duan family has an independent tea garden for research, not only tea mountains, but also lakes, pottery studios, studio exhibition rooms, etc., where children can play.

Duan Qing and Duan Jingyuan discussed the time, they could have moved in earlier and picked tea early the next morning, but the weather was not good and it started to rain lightly.Hangzhou in April is like a child's face, it rains when it rains, and it's sunny when it says it's sunny.

So early in the morning, Qin Shao woke up, the alarm clock rang long ago, but it was pressed down again by Duan Qing, Qin Shao sat up, picked up the alarm clock on the ground, it was a bit early, and the love was decided by himself The alarm clock said that he must go early, and he will pass the test as a tea master in one go.

Now people are sound asleep, it's only 1 minute away from pressing the alarm clock, the speed is really fast.Qin Shao pinched Duanqing's nose with his hand, and Duanqing couldn't breathe for a while, and stretched out his hand to pat Qin Shao: "I'm awake!"

Qin Shao let go of his hands, and rubbed his sleeping hair: "It's time to get up, didn't you say you want to get up early?" And with this hairstyle, he fell asleep in just one night.

Duanqing was able to catch her breath, so she continued to sleep, her eyelids were never opened from the beginning to the end, and she told Qin Shao: "Go and see if it's raining first, if it's raining, you can't pick tea. "

Qin Shao looked at him happy, and he knew it was like this. Last night, he was anxious to see the rain, but now he doesn't want to get up and is looking forward to the rain.

Qin Shao got up first, he opened the curtains and looked outside, there was already light outside, looking at it, it should be sunny today, Qin Shao smiled: "I'm disappointed, it didn't rain today, and it was a good day. "

Sure enough, Duanqing let out an "Ah", her tone was quite disappointed, and she didn't look like she was about to get up while lying on the bed.He really couldn't open his eyes, and said nothing to Qin Shao, but he had no idea what he said.

Qin Shao went to wash up first, and after washing, he twisted a towel for Duanqing, and then went to wake him up: "I heard Aunt Hong cooking, that Tongtong must have woken up, and Xiaoqiao will be gone after a while." Wake up, you are the last one again."

With a towel on Duanqing's face, he was already half awake, and it was no longer so painful to be pulled up from the bed by Qin Shao: "What time is it?" Qin Shao put him in his pajamas: "5 o'clock, if Get up now, we will arrive at the tea garden at 8 o'clock."

Duan Qing opened her eyes, the time he set, at 8 o'clock the morning dew had gone, it was a good time to pick tea.

The hole I dug by myself had to be filled by myself. With a towel on her head, Duanqing went to the bathroom in a steady pace.

After washing my face, I saw Tongtong and Xiaoqiao refreshed. These two children woke up early because they didn’t feel sleepy. They were helping Aunt Hong to arrange the dishes. Xiaoqiao handed the chopsticks to Duanqing: "Father Duanqing, can we see Chenchen today?"

Chenchen is the child of Duan Xuan's family. Duan Qing hummed, and Xiao Qiao shouted happily: "Wow, good, great! I can see my brother!" Duan Qing couldn't understand, they just met last weekend met.Seeing you two days a week, still so inseparable?Han Yu added a knife: "I made a phone call last night, so I asked specifically." Duan Qing glanced at Xiao Qiao, this is a villain, and he made the phone call by himself, why do you ask him?

Duanqing handed the milk to him and Tongtong: "Have you two brought all the presents you want to give to your younger brother?" The two of them said in unison: "I have brought all of them! I also brought the fishing net bag that my father and I made. up!"

Qin Shao really spoiled them all, didn't he go pick tea?And he taught them how to make fishing net bags?Do nothing all day long!

Duan Qing snorted: "Xiaoqiao, have you finished your homework?"

Xiaoqiao sighed like a grown-up: "I also brought my homework."

Duan Qing looked at him and said, "Okay, I hope you can finish it." He looked at Qin Shao, Xiaoqiao was just in the second grade, and he needed to write a diary. Qin Shao is used to it, let him do it.Qin Shao smiled: "We are going to live for a few days. Writing a diary needs inspiration. For children, we need to find inspiration from playing."

Duanqing only twitched the corner of her mouth, and didn't bother to reply him. He gloated and waited to read Xiaoqiao's diary.

After the meal, amidst the cheers of the children, they finally set off.Today's weather is really awesome, it rained a little yesterday, but today is sunny.The sunny day after the rain is very clear, shining on the tea hills like washed jasper, and the tea trees in the ridges look like green silk from a distance. Duan Qing finally wakes up completely after looking at this tea garden. He likes tea gardens. The place where he grew up.

Duan Jingyuan came earlier than them, and Duan's house was relatively close to here. When Duan Qing and the others got off the car, Tong Tong came up to meet them. The children ran fast. Ye Hua smiled: "Sister-in-law!"

Ye Hua smiled at him: "Today we came to see you make tea, a witness of a generation of masters." Duan Qing touched his head, he was still a little embarrassed to see Ye Hua: "I don't know if I can live ?” Ye Hua laughed: “It must be possible!” Both of them laughed.

Qin Shao first greeted Duan Jingyuan: "Dad, why did you come so early?" Duan Jingyuan smiled at him: "I came to say hello to the master in advance." Duan Qing's ears moved: "Why do you want to say hello in advance?" Duan Jingyuan said deeply : "I'm afraid you won't pass the test, let them release the water." Duan Qing frowned: "Why don't we, Dad, let's compare?"

Duan Jingyuan coughed, and felt that he was shooting himself in the foot with a stone. With his current skills, he was no longer good enough. In the past two years, he has paid more attention to sales than tea making. More importantly, if he can't even compare with his son, Where should I put this old face? Isn't this a joke for the old tea maker?

So Duan Jingyuan changed the subject: "Okay, it's getting late, let them arrange the luggage, you change your clothes and get ready to start. You can choose the tea in this tea garden today, and there are several grades of tea masters. There are also several grades."

Duan Qing rolled up her sleeves, looked at the large tea garden and laughed: "I know."

The tea garden they came to is the tea garden of the Duan family as a research garden. It was originally used as a tea research base. Over the years, various landscapes such as a tea museum, a tea art performance room, a tea tasting hall, and a pottery production room have been built one after another. These can be displayed to outsiders and customers, and the rest are large tea gardens.

According to the sunshine and terrain, there are no less than ten kinds of tea planted on this stretch of hills. Even if you haven’t been here for a few years, Duan Qing can still tell which tea is planted on which hilltop. In the past, when Duan Jingyuan came to work, he often came to play with him.

This is the environment he has been familiar with since he was a child. The large tea gardens made him feel happy just looking at them. Duan Qing stretched out her arms and closed her eyes and took a deep breath. No matter how many times she came here, the air here is still good, nothing to say, especially It's early morning.

Duan Jingyuan took the bamboo hat and bamboo basket from the old housekeeper's hand: "Will you still wear it?" Duan Qing cut her voice, even if he hadn't picked tea in the past few years, it was imprinted in his bones, how could he forget it.

Duanqing also showed Xiaoqiao how to wear it. This kind of bamboo hat is the standard equipment of this tea garden. It is not like ordinary sun hats. It is very wide and looks like a sieve. Although it looks simple, it is very practical.Picking tea should be in the sun, and this bamboo hat is very shaded.

Qin Shao helped him carry the bamboo basket, and Duan Qing put on the sleeves herself. In the blink of an eye, a tea picker came out. Duan Xuan and Ye Hua also changed into the same clothes, even Duan Jingyuan and Qin Shao also wore the same clothes. Come on, today, not only Duanqing is going to be a tea master, but they are also going to pick tea. There are dozens of kinds of tea planted in this research garden, and it is the harvest season.

Duan Qing held the bamboo basket in one hand and pointed to the front: "I'm going to pick this piece today." Duan Jingyuan nodded, yes, this piece is West Lake Longjing.Duan Qing took the lead and set off, Qin Shao led Xiaoqiao and the others followed.

Duan Qing stepped on the ridge, touched the young leaves with her fingers, and the green leaves jumped under his hands like green waves. The fluffy hair was very comfortable. After Duan Qing picked a piece and put it in her mouth, she began to pick it .Duan Jingyuan was with a few old masters at the tea ridge next to him, watching his picking techniques, Duan Qing was quick, fingers quickly picked among the tea leaves, the bamboo baskets were slanted, so the masters could see the tea leaves he picked.

Duan Jingyuan also took a look and nodded his head. He was very experienced in picking tea leaves. Most of the tea leaves are one bud and one leaf. Longjing tea, the raw material of its premium tea is one bud, one leaf and two leaves, and single buds are never picked as raw materials.

The West Lake Longjing tea is divided into lotus heart, sparrow tongue and flag gun according to the tenderness of picking. The one bud and one or two leaves picked by Duanqing are shaped like a sparrow tongue, which is the royal tribute tea in the Tang Dynasty——Que tongue tea raw material.

Xiao Qiao followed Duan Qing, and Duan Qing took time to look at him: "Pick this kind of tea, this is the first season of tea, you don't need to pick so much." They were all fast, and Duan Jingyuan praised Xiaoqiao much more than Duan Qing: "Xiaoqiao picked well, and there were a lot of them, and there were no miscellaneous leaves." Xiaoqiao was very polite: "Thank you, grandpa."

Duan Jingyuan put all the tea picked in his hand into his small bamboo basket: "Xiaoqiao, grandpa will teach you how to recognize tea." Duan Jingyuan didn't care if Xiaoqiao could understand or not, so he told him about the picking method and production of West Lake Longjing tea, Xiaoqiao obviously listened straight away, and Duan Qing patted Xiaoqiao: "You write this in your diary today."

Duan Qiao held the bamboo basket and sighed, why did he have to write a diary at school?

Duan Jingyuan knew from watching Duan Qing picking tea that his basic skills were fine, so he took the time to coax the children to play. Qin Shao was liberated, and carried a bamboo basket to pick tea with Duan Qing. Qing's hand speed is really fast, Qin Shao nodded while watching, this kid is very fast in everything, in the first year he was fast when washing the car, fast when playing games, and fast when fighting with him Quickly, Qin Shao thought too far, somehow he thought of the fight they had just started, and it has been almost ten years in a blink of an eye, and he still hasn't forgotten it.

Seeing Qin Shao laugh like this, Duan Qing reached out and smacked his hat: "What are you laughing at?" This hat is big enough, and he can still reach it across a ridge of tea trees.

Qin Shao took his hand and coughed: "I just think you look good picking tea, and your hands are pretty good too."

Duan Qing cut his voice, obviously not believing it, but he was too lazy to be serious, and he wanted to pick more.

Qin Shao handed him his bamboo basket: "Youtang, what do you think of the ones I picked?" Duan Qing glanced at the thin layer in his basket, and nodded perfunctorily: "Yes, These are enough for you to drink a pot by yourself." Hey, Qin Shao laughed at him even if he was still sarcastic.

Qin Shao began to concentrate on picking tea with him, he is also an expert, so he went to take care of Xiaoqiao and Tongtong just now.He sacrificed his career to take care of the children, okay?

Duanqing took two hours to pick, and there was only one bamboo basket. This is all raw materials of sparrow tongue level. This speed is very good. The master chef touched the tea leaves he spread out to dry and nodded: "Yes, this level of tenderness can also be dried and thick. .” Duan Qing smiled: “Thank you, Master.”

The master smiled at Duan Jingyuan: "Master, it looks like you have tribute tea today." Although Duan Jingyuan was happy in his heart, he still said: "Master, don't rush to praise, the most important steps have not been done yet. The master laughed: "Don't worry, I know it!"

The old master went to see other browns. Duan Jingyuan originally wanted to tell him the precautions after the next paragraph, and some employees came to tell him that a customer came. Ordinary customers don’t need to tell Duan Jingyuan specifically, so Duan Jingyuan listened. The man closed his eyes, and pinched the center of his eyebrows with his hands. Qin Shao probably knew who was coming from his expression.

Duan Jingyuan didn't want to leave at all, Duan Qing finally came to the tea garden, he had a lot of things to tell him, of course he wanted to be a light bulb here.Duan Jingyuan didn't feel that he was a light bulb at all. The main reason was that Qin Shao did a great job. Qin Shao held his tea and asked him to judge: "Dad, how about my tea? It's not much worse than Duan Qing's, right? ?”

He called Dad so naturally, it was a thousand times better than calling Duan Qing Qin Jialuo, and he was naturally kind. He knew how well he had treated Duan Qing these years, no matter how picky he was, he couldn't pick it out, so Duan Jingyuan He already regarded him as a relative in his heart, not to mention that before that, Qin Shao had been running to Duan's house all day long, so he had already regarded him as his son.

Duan Jingyuan looked at Qin Shao's tea leaves with a smile, and nodded, "That's right, it's also a sparrow tongue." Qin Shao smiled: "Then Dad, let me participate in the tea frying too. I want to compare with Duan Qing." Duan Qing raised her eyebrows Look at him: "Compare with me?"

His tone is simple, Qin Shao looks at him happily, time has left traces on him, unique traces, he remembers the child ten years ago like a hedgehog, exposing all the thorns, pretending to be strong, But now he is strong enough and confident enough.

Qin Shao said solemnly: "Yes, I believe that in my comparison, you, a master tea maker, are guaranteed to be the only one in the world, full of brilliance, and infinite scenery!" He has been teaching Xiaoqiao to read idioms these days. The idioms are all put together, haha, Duan Qing laughed: "Then I'm thanks to you."

Duan Qing folded her arms and said to Duan Jingyuan, "Dad, you must be fair when we compete. You must not be partial." Duan Jingyuan finally felt that he could no longer be a light bulb. Qin Shao is really good. Just as a light bulb for the two of them, Qin Shao didn't say anything.

Duan Jingyuan stood up and handed the tea in the box to Duan Qing: "Don't worry, I have the teacher here, even if I want to pour water for you, I can't do it!"

Duan Qing cut her voice: "I don't need to release water! It's him! You are not allowed to release water for him!"

Duan Jingyuan said happily: "Ye Lin played well, we will sell to the big client who came today!" He gritted his teeth while talking about the big client, and Qin Shao thoroughly confirmed who the client was.

After Duan Jingyuan left, Duan Qing helped Qin Shao to dry the tea leaves he had picked. The tea leaves picked by Qin Shao were also good. , He was addicted to twittering, Qin Shao pulled him: "Okay, let's go out and see Xiaoqiao and the others, they are troublemakers, don't go to the flower tea garden to make trouble."
