aren't we rivals

"I came here mainly to take my things away, so as not to be cut off halfway."

After saying this, Meng Chi took the bottle of mineral water back from Yu Tingzhi's hand.

Yu Tingzhi raised his eyebrows slightly, and repeated: "Your things."

"Huh?" Meng Chi asked back, "Isn't it mine?"

Yu Tingzhi lowered his eyes and glanced at the remaining half bottle of mineral water in his hand, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, nodded and said: "It's yours, how do you plan to take it away?"

Meng Chi raised his eyebrows and laughed. After making Yu Ting's heart itch, he didn't continue to play charades with him, but turned and left with a few bottles of water spit out from the vending machine.

Yu Tingzhi looked at his back, shook his head and smiled.

The little wild cat is really not easy to coax.

The main purpose of the Tea History Hall is to present the development history of tea culture for thousands of years in front of modern people through documents, utensils, calligraphy and paintings, poems and other carriers of various eras.

You only need to take a tour of the Tea History Hall, and in a short period of time, you can look at the development process of tea culture for thousands of years, observe, accept, understand and reflect on it as a whole.

After Meng Chi's sudden appearance, Yu Tingzhi's attention was indeed on him, and he was not interested in these things.But after Meng Chi finished explaining his intention for coming, Yu Tingzhi's attention could be regarded as half divided to these exhibits.

A group of people walked and watched, from the Tea History Hall to the Tea Extraction Hall. According to the differences in tea manufacturing methods and varieties, more than 300 tea samples from different tea-producing areas across the country were processed into vacuum specimens through special processes, divided into Green tea, black tea, green tea (oolong tea), yellow tea, white tea, dark tea 6 major teas and reprocessed teas, displaying tea specimens one by one.

Meng Chi's understanding of tea is much higher than that of others, and he will add a few words in addition to the official explanation.When he told the story, he used straightforward and easy-to-understand words, and occasionally told some interesting things he encountered while learning tea, which attracted many tourists to follow along the way.

It wasn't until they entered the tea hall, because Meng Chi knew the person in charge here, that he greeted them and walked them through the back door to enter the movie viewing area, which is usually not very open, and the surrounding area became quiet.

This place still belongs to the tea custom hall, but it is only open at certain times. There are stages and large screens, and there will be videos related to tea customs, and occasionally some stage plays adapted from tea customs will be staged.

Today is not an open day, so there is no stage performance, but you can choose the corresponding tea custom movie to watch on the screen.

As a movie viewing area, the lights here are darker than outside, but fortunately, people can barely see things. Even so, Yu Tingzhi's footsteps slowed down.

Song Chen knew that Yu Tingzhi's eyesight would decrease when the light was too dim, so he walked to Yu Tingzhi's side after entering the door: "Can you see it?"

Yu Tingzhi nodded, not letting Song Chen help him.

"I can't see, Brother Song, can you hold me?" Chen Yan glanced at Meng Chi, who was walking in the front, and grabbed Song Chen's clothes as he spoke.

Chen Yan slowed down, pretending to be blind, holding Song Chen with one hand and Song Min with the other, and fixed the two light bulbs in front of him with his own strength.

"Didn't your student say he wanted to watch the tea festival? You can watch it here." Yu Tingzhi walked up to Meng Chi's side and heard Meng Chi tell him.

"But today is not an open day, so too many people can't enter." Meng Chi asked again, "If you want to see it, you can watch it first."

Yu Tingzhi smiled: "Is this the privilege you gave me?"

Meng Chi didn't deny it, and selected the content of the tea festival from the small screen that was shown on the screen with ease.

This film about the tea ceremony records the entire process of the tea ceremony in the form of a documentary, including the origin of the tea ceremony and its development in recent years. If you are not interested in this, it actually looks a bit boring. After all, the film Recording is far less authentic than participating in person.

When he came out, Song Min directly complained, "It's a bit boring to look at like this".

Chen Yan said with a smile: "This kind of activity has to be personally participated in to be interesting. Isn't the day after tomorrow the tea ceremony day? Go and see."

Song Min: "Brother, are you going?"

Song Chen nodded: "Since we met, let's go and have a look. Don't Ting Zhi want to take the students there? We just go together."

Yu Tingzhi looked sideways at Meng Chi: "Are you going?"

When he asked this, everyone present turned their gazes to Meng Chi. Song Chen's eyes dimmed for a moment, then he looked away and continued walking as if nothing had happened.

"Go and have a look." Meng Chi said.

"Then you have to pay attention this time, don't be robbed by those people again." Chen Yan reminded with disgust.

Mentioning the embarrassing things in the past, Meng Chi had no choice but to support his forehead.

Yu Tingzhi asked: "What do you mean, who snatched it away?"

Chen Yan glanced at Yu Tingzhi, and then said with a smile: "Teacher Yu, you don't know, besides the tea ceremony, there is also a kind of tea custom called 'eating tea'. In layman's terms, tea is used as a token of affection. Tea During the festival, if you fall in love with someone, you can make a cup of tea and give it to him, and if the other party drinks it, it means that he is also interested in you, and then you can snatch him away and get married."

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Meng Chi frowned upon hearing Chen Yan's vulgar explanation, and met Yu Tingzhi's puzzled gaze, and Meng Chi explained it to him in detail.

Lang Ying of the Ming Dynasty explained in the "Seven Revised Class Drafts": "When you grow tea, you can't transplant it. If you transplant it, you won't come back to life. Therefore, women are hired, which is called eating tea."

In an old wedding custom of the Han nationality, "drinking tea" means promising marriage, which means "congyi" just like the gift of tea for engagement.

But now in a few places, there is still the ancient custom of "snatching marriages". The two families of men and women agree on the date of marriage first. While calling, "So-and-so's family invites you to have tea!" The relatives and friends of the woman quickly caught up with the "retaken" girl after hearing the sound, and then officially held the wedding ceremony at home.

There was such a custom in Xichi in ancient times, but it has changed with the development of the times. Now it has become a tea festival event. Young men and women will personally make a cup of tea and give it to the person they are interested in. If the other party accepts the tea , it is regarded as the same intention, and the convenience of delivering tea will call friends and friends to snatch the person.

Of course, in a civilized society now, this kind of activity is mostly just for fun, and there will be no real situation where you can't end without getting married.

When Meng Chi participated in the tea festival, he didn't understand the rules, so he drank the tea brought by someone by mistake, so he was snatched away, and escaped after getting covered in the fragrance of his daughter.

Chen Yan would know about this, he heard about it when he was chatting with Yang Zile, so he didn't know much about the custom of snatching marriage.

After Meng Chi said this, Yu Tingzhi understood what was going on.

"A lot of people will bring you tea?" Yu Tingzhi asked Meng Chi.

"Yeah, we're wild, ah no," Chen Yan changed his words urgently, "Meng Chi is so handsome, men and women can eat it all, okay? Mr. Yu, you have to watch him closely when the time comes!"

Meng Chi: "..."

Under Meng Chi's sharp eyes, Chen Yan ran away quickly after speaking.

Yu Tingzhi looked at Meng Chi's face with a smile on his face: "Why don't Teacher Meng stop going?"

Meng Chi: "Teacher Yu, you should look after yourself when you look like this."

Yu Tingzhi chuckled, looked at him for two seconds, and suddenly asked: "If someone snatches me away, will you snatch me back?"

Looking at Yu Tingzhi's smiling eyes, Meng Chi understood his implication almost instantly. He raised his eyebrows and asked calmly, "Will you be snatched away?"

Yu Ting's eyebrows were raised slightly, the daze in his eyes disappeared for a moment, he suddenly laughed lowly, and after a while, he said two words, which was somewhat solemn.

"will not."

This answer pleased Meng Chi, who smiled and said nothing more.When he turned around and walked outside the tea hall, he saw Song Chen standing not far away, and the moment he met his gaze, he staggered his gaze.

After leaving the Tea House, they went to the Tea House again.

The most special place in the Chayuan Hall should be a compartment set up to commemorate Mr. Zhang, a local tea expert in Xichi.

Born a hundred years ago, Mr. Zhang Lao is one of the top ten experts in tea science in China. He not only has extensive research on tea science, but also made outstanding contributions to the development of tea science education, scientific research, and production. He also designed and created a hand push The tea kneading machine has changed the way of kneading tea by traditional tea craftsmen.

In this exhibition hall, there are tea kneading machines designed and invented by Mr. Zhang. From the first generation to the fourth generation, they are placed in the center of the exhibition hall.In addition, there are also tea sets he used and countless precious literature and calligraphy, including hand-painted design drafts of tea kneading machines, handwritten notes on tea research and development, and so on.

"I didn't expect Mr. Zhang to be a calligrapher." Chen Yan sighed casually looking at the calligraphy on the wall.

Meng Chi nodded, "Well, besides tea, Mr. Zhang also loves calligraphy."

Song Chen glanced at him, then turned his eyes to the words on the wall, his brows frowned lightly, after looking for a moment, he turned his head to look at Yu Tingzhi: "Tingzhi, what do you think? "

Yu Tingzhi looked at the calligraphy, and said after a while: "General."

Meng Chi raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Yu Tingzhi with a smile.He didn't have much research on calligraphy, and he didn't see any way to do it, but he appreciated Yu Tingzhi's confident outspokenness.

After all, after entering the tea industry, he has never heard anyone say anything bad about this "dean of the tea industry".

Song Chen smiled and nodded: "It's really not a good work."

"What do you young people know? Talking about old artists here." An old man on crutches snorted coldly, and glanced at Song Chen and Yu Tingzhi with disdain, "General?! Huh! You understand What?"

Meng Chi glanced at Yu Tingzhi when he heard the words, couldn't help laughing, and whispered to Yu Tingzhi like a fire: "Teacher Yu, why don't you talk about the general method, and see if you can convince him? "

Yu Tingzhi glanced at him: "Do you want to see me quarrel with others?"

Meng Chi raised his eyebrows: "Artists still quarrel?"
