Chapter 1010 Attitude
On the other side of the garden is a children's activity area with a small fence. There are two rabbits and a duck in the fence. They seem to be Ax's pets.
In front of the yard is a fish pond with goldfish in it. There are some bamboo branches stuck on the grass beside the fish pond, with small dishes stuck to the bamboo branches.
Everyone sat down around the big coffee table on the terrace. Zhou Zhi looked at the bamboo branches in front of him: "What are those for?"
"Those are what my dad used to feed the birds. ." Cousin An Ran said with a smile: "Every morning, I put rice grains on the plate for the birds to eat. It's so lively."
"Uncle is really good at playing." Zhou Zhi was a little envious: "Why didn't I think of that?"
"There is also a wooden box there with earthworms in it, for fishing." Cousin An Ran Pointing to a place, there was a small vegetable bed and a wooden box next to it.
"Mom and dad still like to grow vegetables?" Li Laosan felt a little novel looking at this pattern.
“This is the easiest one.” Su Datou said with a smile: “That’s the big balcony of my uncle’s house, and it’s all filled with vegetables for grandma.”
“My uncle has started to practice. Kung Fu tea?" Zhou Zhi looked at the tea set on the coffee table and prepared to take action.
"I'll do it, I'll do it." Li Laosan quickly took over: "I heard that dad likes to drink tea, so I got him eyebrows."
"Okay, export will be converted to domestic sales." Zhou Zhi said with a smile .
It’s funny to talk about the tea market in Hong Kong Island. After the opening up, many customs and languages in the mainland have been greatly influenced by Hong Kong Island, but only about the preference for tea, Hong Kong Island has in turn been influenced by Guangdong Province. influence, and remains so.
The most popular ones today are still Gongmei and Shoumei, but they have begun to transition to Tieguanyin and Gaoshan Oolong. After a while, Dancong and Dahongpao will start to be hyped, and later there will be Pu'er and Xiaguantuo. , and then turned into small green mandarin oranges, Fuding white tea, Xinhui tangerine peel...
In the years when "the national trend is to look at Hong Kong Island", tea has stepped out of its own "countercurrent".
Both Gongmei and Shoumei are white teas. White tea is semi-fermented. Due to problems with the production process, newly made white teas will have a "grassy smell" and they need to be stored. The longer they are stored, the more fragrant the taste will become. mellow.
This tea is popular in Guangdong mainly because of its "great clearing fire", which is said to be able to replace rhino horns.
The current products are just like the soy sauce from Zhou Zhi’s hometown. Once Hong Kong Islanders take a fancy to it, mainlanders cannot afford it.
For example, Chen Gongmei, who has been admiring the past twenty years, is not accessible to everyone on Hong Kong Island, let alone the mainland.
But when this guy appeared in the mainland, he was almost a secret admirer. My uncle, who was used to drinking green tea, definitely didn’t like him.
Sure enough, I heard cousin An Ran say: "There were only so many tea leaves last time I came here, and now there are basically still so many..."
"I'll take them away in a while." Zhou Zhi said politely: "In the bedroom It’s so hot that you can brew a big cup in the summer morning and take it to the study room to drink all day long.”
“This tea has a characteristic, it tastes soft and cold. It tastes better than the hot one."
After dividing the tea for everyone, Li Laosan said, "What are you doing, dad? Why don't An Xin and I go and help?"
"That's a shameful thing to say." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Cousin An An is a master who never touches Yang Chun Shui, not to mention you may not be able to recognize all the ingredients in Shu."
"What kind of food is this? It smells so good." Li Laosan sniffed.
"Steamed pork with rice flour is my uncle's specialty, but his process is too complicated and he can't make it more than once or twice a year." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "After all, it's my uncle who comes to the door, so we can follow you and take advantage of it."< br>
“This is true "Sister Cancan said with a smile: "I got up after four o'clock this morning and have been busy until now."
"By the way, I have always been curious, when did you start?" Ax took him over to give him a drink of water, Jin Cancan asked Said: "I stopped Anxin when he said he was going to build a factory in Shenzhen City. Fortunately, he didn't stop him. Were you guys there before or after that?"
"Sister Cancan, you are really an afterthought. "Sleep." Zhou Zhi expressed disdain, and now he can decipher one. After reading some things, he smiled and said, "When did cousin An An start learning Cantonese?" "Learning Cantonese?" Jin Cancan was shocked: "It's not that early, right? Did you start after the first time you went to the Canton Fair? It's impossible not to Maybe..."
Zhou Zhi picked up his eyebrows and drank a drink: "Sister Cancan, you and cousin An An have been classmates since childhood. Let me ask another question. As far as you know, what is cousin An An's attitude towards learning? Learn Cantonese. What's the attitude? "
After saying this, Sister Cancan immediately understood that Xu Anxin, a scumbag, has never been interested in learning. Otherwise, how could such a smart person end up in a technical school? However, the seriousness in learning Cantonese was indeed very different from before. I thought that my best friend felt sorry for her brother for taking on the important task of opening up the market. At that time, I was extremely moved.
“Damn girl, you’ve kept it secret from me for so long!”
Xu Anxin laughed so hard: “Don’t listen to Elbow’s nonsense. We had just met at that time, and everyone So busy, how can I think about this..."
"Really?" Jin Cancan looked at Xu Anxin and Li Laosan suspiciously.
Zhou Zhi looked at Li Laosan: "Jack, do you know that one day in my second year of high school, my cousin suddenly called me and asked me what the Cantonese word 'I love you so much' means. At that time, did you just Do you call me often?"
"I remember it," Li Laosan said, "That was the first time I confessed to An Xin, but An Xin just said yes and hung up, which made me worried. All day long..."
< br> "Have you never thought that she didn't understand it at all? Her Cantonese skills at that time were very poor, hahaha..." Zhou Zhi laughed like crazy: "It's fine even if you say you love tiger oil, why do you think of using Cantonese?" Confession hahaha Ha..."
Sister Cancan couldn't stop laughing, holding her ax in her arms and confessing: "We axes must study hard in the future, otherwise we will have to hire a translator to fall in love, hahaha..."
When Sister Cancan said this, Zhou Zhi couldn't stop laughing: "I actually helped translate a love letter for the Light Industry Bureau in Jiachuan..."
"Ah? What's going on?"
When Zhou Zhi told the story about how Director Li of the Youth Work Bureau paid great attention to the English letter he received, asked Zhou Zhi to translate it, and then found out that it was a love letter written by his daughter’s classmate, everyone was happy. Staggering around.
"Come and eat." The uncle greeted the overjoyed crowd at the door: "Can Xiao Li have something to drink?"
Li Laosan was a bachelor, so he directly hung up his no-war sign. : "You can drink a little with dad, but not too much. I have learned how much you Shu people drink."
"Really? Have you ever drank with us Shu people?"
"Uh, this..."
Cousin An An heard this just as she took out the bowl from the kitchen, and couldn't help but feel like Bo sticks out his tongue behind his back to make a swearing face.
Zhou Zhi quickly picked up: "Have I not been to Hong Kong Island? Thanks to Third Brother for hosting me, people in Hong Kong Island pay more attention to health."
"By the way, my fourth cousin concocted it. The longan wine is ready to drink. I’ll bring two jars to my uncle this time. How about we drink that one?”
"Okay, let's just drink for fun today," my uncle said with a smile, "I don't want to advise you, don't overdo it. We mainly eat vegetables!"
"It smelled so good just now." Mr. Li San said: "Thank you for your hard work, Mom and Dad."
There is a small table and chair on the side of the axe. Sister and Zhou Zhi were settling him in. After hearing this, Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "This is my uncle's special skill. It's very delicious, but the process is too complicated than ordinary steamed pork."
Steamed pork is simple to say. It can be very simple, just mix the watercress and rice noodles with the meat, put it on a plate and put it in a steamer and steam it until cooked.
But if we say complicated, it can be very complicated.
