This place is called Heguang Tea House. At first glance, the name is a bit strange. Those who don’t know it think it is a person’s name. In fact, the name is taken from the meaning of Heguang Tongchen in the Tao Te Ching. The ancient plaque is engraved with good running scripts. Youjia comes from the Chinese department and has this appreciation ability. In addition, she has a different mentality now, and many unintentional people or things can make her feel. At least after standing at the door for a while before entering, Youjia’s mood is no longer as impetuous as when she came here just now.
This is also the reason why she wanted to come here to study the tea ceremony. She used to waste too much time, but now she is so eager to make up for it, so she hopes to see the results quickly when she does anything. Youjia realizes that her overcorrect behavior is also wrong, so whether she can learn something here is second. The most important thing is to cultivate her mind and cultivate her nature.
This teahouse is divided into two parts. The front is a teahouse, open for business, and the back is a place to learn tea ceremony and tea art. Tea artists will perform and explain here every week, and membership access is implemented. If there is no membership card, Youjia can only drink tea in the teahouse in front. Moreover, if Bai Ze can introduce this to her, the specifications will not be low.
Youjia entered from the teahouse at the front door. It was afternoon. There were not many guests here, only two tables sat in a few words, and they were basically talking slowly. The atmosphere was very peaceful. Bypassing the screen, passing through a curved corridor full of Jiangnan garden atmosphere, and then entering a moon gate. Youjia saw that there were several people sitting around there, and a young girl was sitting behind the tea table, holding a teapot in her slender finger, pouring tea.
The surroundings are covered with green bamboos and green. Even the tea sets in the girl's hands are full of jade-like Longquan celadons. Youjia doesn't know how to appreciate them, but even with her eyesight, you can see that the tea set is expensive.
The most important thing is that the girl's hands, movements and expressions are all wonderful, and even the sound of tea pouring into the teacup looks particularly pleasant.
In addition to Youjia, the other people are middle-aged and over. They dress with taste. They hold their breath and concentrate, obviously watching it very seriously, and they didn't notice anyone joining.
There were still many empty chairs around, and Youjia sat quietly without disturbing anyone. Although she didn't understand tea art, she carefully admired it for a while and felt that this scene was quite pleasing to the eye. Moreover, the surrounding environment and the girl's slow tea pouring movements can make people relax and enjoy everything in front of her with the most comfortable mood.
The girl poured the tea into the cup one by one. She and Youjia were not far away. Youjia saw that each small cup was evenly shaped and full, neither too much nor too much, which seemed very consistent.
"I am using Phoenix Narcissus today. You may as well try it. Tea is good, but it varies from person to person. For people with cold stomachs, it is still a bit harmful to the stomach. If people with stomach problems, it is better not to drink it." The girl smiled slightly and made a gesture of invitation. After she said this, an assistant next to her came forward and used a tea clip to hold the tea cups one by one onto the tray, and then sent it to Youjia and others for tasting.
The people present did not have a bad stomach, so everyone picked up a small cup of tea to taste.
Youjia knew nothing about tea ceremony and couldn't drink any good or bad tea, but from the moment she came in, she fell in love with the atmosphere here, her heart moved casually, and the scenery was moving. Even if ordinary tea was drunk in her mouth, it felt delicious.
A lady next to her was joking: "Xiao Qin, the cup you used last time was enough to drink a sip, but this time it wasn't enough. Did Boss Sun not pay you enough salary? You can't bear to treat us with a bigger cup!"
The lady thought she was a regular visitor, and after hearing her words, everyone laughed.
The young girl also smiled: "Sister Liu is really observant. Last time I showed Japanese tea art, so I used the teacup style commonly used by Japanese people. This time it was Chaoshan Kung Fu tea in authentic Chinese tea art, so the teacup is much smaller."
As soon as she said this, others knew that Ms. Liu must have known nothing about tea ceremony, but Xiao Qin praised her for being very careful and did not count as wrong. She not only pointed out Ms. Liu's mistakes, but also gently praised the other party. This speaking skill is admirable.
Sure enough, Ms. Liu was not only not angry, but was very happy.
You Jia saw it and thought that she had learned wherever she went. If she changed herself, she might not be able to adapt to the situation like Xiao Qin.
Ms. Liu asked again: "Xiao Qin, I have no research on tea ceremony. I only know that your actions of pouring tea just now are much better than those performed last time. Is there anything here?"
Xiao Qin pursed his lips and smiled: "That move just now is called 'Guan Gong patrols, Han Xin orders soldiers'. Actually, what I did is not authentic. When a real master patrols, tea water will neither splash out nor bubbles will appear in the tea cup. At this point, Boss Sun is an expert. He has studied tea ceremony in Fujian and Chaoshan for many years and is much better than me. In fact, China's tea ceremony is profound and Japanese tea ceremony also originated in China, but internationally, Japanese tea ceremony is more famous."
Ms. Liu asked: "Why is this?"
Xiao Qin was just talking about a phenomenon, but he had not studied the essence of the phenomenon. It was naturally difficult to answer Ms. Liu's question. Fortunately, the atmosphere here is relaxing. It is better to say that Xiao Qin is talking about it, it is better to say that everyone is communicating and chatting with each other.
Another lady said, "I guess it should be because the official did not consciously promote it before? I started later than others, so I naturally missed the opportunity. My husband's business requires frequent cooperation with Japan, so I have also come into contact with many Japanese people. Although I don't like them, it is undeniable that in many things, Japanese people are full of research and can stick to the end, especially in their seriousness and meticulousness in doing things, which is worth learning from."
Everyone nodded and agreed.
"Behind the tea ceremony in China, there is often a strong traditional Chinese culture. Like the 'Guan Gong patrols and Han Xin' mentioned earlier, it includes a figure in the Three Kingdoms, a figure in the Han Dynasty, and the historical stories behind these two people. Even if a foreigner can speak Chinese, he may not be able to understand such allusions thoroughly, so this should be another reason that hinders the spread of Chinese tea culture."
Everyone heard this strange voice and turned around, and then discovered Youjia.
Seeing that she suddenly became the center of attention, Youjia smiled a little embarrassedly: "I am also a member of my own words, and I guess it casually. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me."
Xiao Qin: "Are you our new member?"
Youjia: "Yes, my surname is You."
Xiao Qin smiled and said, "Welcome. Miss You's words make sense. I've been taught. We are just chatting here at will, so there is no need to be too restrictive."
Youjia also discovered that others had friendly eyes on the addition of her new member, but that was all. They were all sitting in their original position and soon continued to discuss with Xiao Qin.
This made Youjia feel very relaxed, and she thought that this is indeed a place that can make people relax their whole body and mind. Even if you just watch the tea art performance and talk to everyone about the tea ceremony, it is very comfortable.
Ms. Liu seemed to always ask questions, and she could see that she was very interested in the tea ceremony and didn't know much about it, so she had the most questions in the audience. However, every time the topic she brought up, it often made everyone gain something, so everyone was happy to ask her to ask questions.
Now, after Xiao Qin and You Jia exchanged greetings, she had another question: "Xiao Qin, we come to see you perform tea art every week, and Boss Sun occasionally comes to tell us the tea ceremony. However, after I watched the tea art you demonstrated a few times, I learned it for my husband when I got home. I remember that your movements are not complicated, and I learned it after a few glances. But no matter how many times I practiced, I can never learn such beautiful movements as you. Is there any secret here? Teach me quickly!"
Xiao Qin smiled: "A person who makes tea every day will naturally move smoothly over time. Another thing is the mentality. When making tea, the mentality should be stable, calm and calm. If you are a little distracted or have distracting thoughts, the taste of the tea you brew will definitely be different."
"Tea art is the external manifestation of the tea ceremony. The Tao is in the heart and the art is outside. It sounds very profound. In fact, to put it bluntly, a good attitude can make good tea. The mentality here not only includes being focused and focused when making tea, but also requiring perseverance and patience."
"Many things are like this. Buddhist Zen, Taoism, and Confucianism all emphasize cultivating the mind first and then practicing. Just like learning calligraphy, when you first start, your master will ask your mentality to be stable. When your mind is stable, your hands will be stable, and the tip of your pen will not tremble. The same is true for fishing. You must have enough patience to get fish on the hook. Therefore, all things in the world will never leave their roots. The same is true."
In addition to Youjia, they are all people with status and status. When they come here, they don’t just watch Xiao Qin perform tea art or listen to her telling big truths. However, in such an atmosphere, Xiao Qin uses tea to talk about life, and everyone is very happy to listen to it. Their experience is far greater than that of Xiao Qin, but it does not prevent Xiao Qin from supporting her and praising her for her good words.
It's just like Youjia, I feel that I'm benefiting a lot.
Ms. Liu smiled and said, "It seems that I am not pious enough. Just soaking once is not enough. When I get home, I will make a pot of tea first and insist on soaking it every day!"
Ms. Liu’s friend next to her joked: “Then you can practice for a month first. Maybe you can challenge Boss Sun directly in a month!”
Ms. Liu: "Then I don't dare. Boss Sun is a real master. At most, I can only challenge Xiao Qin!"
Xiao Qin was also happy: "Welcome!"
Everyone talked and laughed. Even Youjia, who had just joined, started chatting with the two ladies next to her. She was a little restrained at first. These ladies knew that they were not from the same class as her, but with the prelude just now, it was less embarrassing to talk.
Taking advantage of the tea ceremony as the opening remark, she talked about Zen with Ms. Zhou and Ms. Chen again. Through Zen, she talked about religious beliefs and scenic spots in various places. Everyone has no specific topic core, they are all imaginative, and they talk about wherever they want, which is very relaxed and comfortable.
Youjia herself is not unaware of her knowledge. No matter what, she has read a lot of books. She was the president of the school’s literary club when she was in college. She was proficient in many topics, but at least she could talk about some of them and add to her own ideas. She would not be timid and unable to answer, so she talked with Ms. Zhou and Ms. Chen quite speculatively.
From the conversation, Youjia learned that Ms. Chen’s husband was engaged in the jewelry business and she was a regular visitor here, while Ms. Zhou, like her, was the first time she came back.
Ms. Zhou started from scratch and opened a company herself. She is a typical professional woman. Ms. Chen asked about the industry she was engaged in curiously. Ms. Zhou said a name. Ms. Chen and Youjia immediately felt awe. Ms. Zhou's company is engaged in the food processing industry and was rated as one of the top ten outstanding private enterprises last year.
Ms. Chen said sincerely: "I don't know how envious of a strong woman like you, who has her own career, can do what she wants, and does not have to rely on a man to live freely!"
Ms. Zhou smiled faintly: "Like a person drinks water, he knows the warmth and coldness. You are very happy like Sister Chen. I look glorious, but the scenery also needs a huge price."
When Ms. Chen and Youjia both felt sad when they heard her words.
As an outstanding entrepreneur in the city, Youjia has also read reports about Ms. Zhou. In the early days of reform and opening up, Ms. Zhou's husband resigned in the north and went to G City to go into business. Taking advantage of the wave of the great era, the business quickly achieved some results. Two years later, Ms. Zhou took her children from the north to the south to defect to her husband, but found that the other party had married and had children on Hong Kong Island, and had the identity of a resident of Hong Kong Island.
At that time, divorce was a big deal, and women had to bear more strange vision than they are now, regardless of whether it was the woman's fault. Ms. Zhou was unwilling to return to her hometown in the north to be criticized, so she divorced her husband and stayed in City G to work while raising her children. More than 20 years have passed, and Ms. Zhou, who was struggling back then, went from being penniless to owning her own listed company today. Such a legendary story naturally makes people talk about it. Now she is lucky to see herself, but Youjia did not expect that Ms. Zhou looked only over forty years, which shows that she was well maintained.
As a woman, she will naturally envy Ms. Chen: her husband has a successful career and is dedicated to her. From time to time, she doesn't have to go outside to get sun and rain, just be her own wealthy and idle person, and there is no worry outside that she quarrels all day long for her husband to keep a mistress.
However, there are very few women in the world who are as lucky as Ms. Chen. Only because many women admire Ms. Zhou, who can still improve themselves in adversity.
The three of them met for the first time, but they may meet frequently in the future. Naturally, they have to introduce themselves to each other, and at least let the other party have a rough understanding. Ms. Chen and Ms. Zhou both introduced themselves, and they all looked at Youjia, with a little curiosity in their hearts.
Although teahouses are called "cleaning the soul", they are a bit boring after all. Young people with time are more willing to do something else than come here to spend time. There are still very few young people like Youjia.
Youjia: "I worked as a customer service in a game company. I originally wanted to learn something in my spare time and improve myself. A friend recommended this place to me, otherwise I wouldn't have the opportunity to enter."
The members here are either rich or noble. Anyway, they are definitely not on the same level as Youjia. Not to mention others, Ms. Zhou and Ms. Chen alone are enough to kill ten Youjia in seconds.
Ms. Chen asked with interest: "Game Company? Is it the kind of game to play on your mobile phone?"
Youjia smiled and said, "Yes, there are those, and some people who play on the computer."
Ms. Zhou also smiled and said, "I used to play mobile games when I was idle, but later my daughter said that if an elderly person like me was too much, she would not be able to play it, so she explicitly prohibited it. What is your game called? Maybe I have heard of it."
When the two heard about her self-introduction, their attitude was as good as ever and they were very kind, and they did not show any disdain or contempt, which made Youjia feel a little relieved and joked: "It is called "Cultivation of Immortality, but don't search. If you get addicted to playing, I will be scolded by your daughter!"
Although there are many people in this world who think that the other person's status does not match their own and look down on them, but those who are truly experienced and well-educated will not do this.
The other party may not be as good as you now, but how do you know that he will be inferior to you in his life? You must leave room for yourself in life, show off your power and be happy for a while. If the other party continues to do nothing in the future, it would be fine. If the other party becomes prosperous one day, you will invisibly establish an enemy for yourself, and maybe you will bring greater disasters at any time. Why bother?
Stay at the forefront of a person and meet each other in the future. Maybe you will meet a hundred people who are inferior to you now, and ninety-nine of them will not have a future in the future. But as long as one of them is a potential stock, you have already made a profit. So being kind to others is actually helping yourself.
Ms. Zhou started from scratch and knew that she should never underestimate anyone at any time. Especially the more down and out a person, there are often those who are determined to achieve great things in the future. There are many such examples. The ancients summed up in one sentence, that is, don’t bully the young and poor.
Ms. Chen came from a business family and paid more attention to harmony and wealth.
More importantly, when everyone met by chance, Youjia could clearly conceal or fabricate a more suitable identity, but she chose to tell the truth, which made Ms. Zhou and Ms. Chen quite like her.
If you are sincere to others, others will naturally be sincere to you.
