Chapter 514 You avenge yourself!
"If you're here, you'll be safe. If you really care, you might as well go in and have a seat, and try the new tea here." Zhou Ji smiled, and before he could finish speaking, Hongkui said, "That's what you said Oh~", rushing in impatiently.
Zhou Ji raised his foot to keep up, noticed Si Teng beside him who had not spoken much, and asked tentatively, "Are you angry?"
"No, why should I be angry?" Mingming Sito stretched his smile, but there was no smile in his cold eyes.
Zhou Ji's heart skipped a beat, with a faint premonition of imminent disaster, he hesitated and said, "Then why haven't you spoken?"
"I'm just thinking about one thing." Si Teng folded his arms, his eyes drifted over Zhou Ji and the tea shop by the lake not far away, and wrote lightly.
Zhou Ji tentatively asked: "Thinking about where to bury me?"
"I'm afraid your Xiaokui won't let it go." Si Teng gave Zhou Ji a blank look, walked past him, and walked into the tea shop.
Not long after the wooden sign was hung, some regular customers came to the door one after another. After Zhao Paner greeted the guests next to her, she saw the woman in red and Zhou Ji Si Teng entering the door. She found a vacant seat by the window by the water and sat down. Walking over with a stack of pastries with a smile, "Guests, please stay a little longer. This is our Luming fruit. I just made it this morning. There is sweet-scented osmanthus in it. You can try it first."
Zhou Ji nodded and said: "Thank you, lady shopkeeper."
Hongkui looked around with great interest, and her eyes fell on Zhao Pan'er, who was performing tea art from time to time, "This is too similar, isn't she really Xiao Linger?"
"Although they are not the same person, they can still sense the existence of the other party in the dark." Zhou Ji picked up a fruit and took a sip. The fruit was soft and delicious, with a refreshing honey fragrance, and the taste was indeed excellent
But because it was too delicious, Zhou Ji took a sip and put it back. Sun Sanniang accidentally saw Zhou Ji's actions and couldn't help feeling a little frustrated.
After a while, Hongkui got along well with Zhao Pan's son, Sun Sanniang, and saw that Sun Sanniang was frustrated, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't worry about it, Sanniang, he doesn't like cakes, the worse they are made, the more he eats them, just try one bite." On the contrary, it shows that the fruit of Sanniang tastes very good."
Mrs. Zhao and Sun Sanniang still have business to do after all, so Hongkui couldn't disturb her for too long, so she chatted for a few words before returning to her seat.
Two more customers came from outside the tea shop, and they saw a table and chairs in the corner near the lake. The old Jia who led the way flattered the arrogant and contemptuous commander beside him, "Commander, what do you think of this place? I heard that you like tea, This Zhao family tea shop is built by the lake, it is elegant and quiet, the tea is delicious and the fruit is good, the shopkeeper lady is even more beautiful, everything is complete~"
Speaking of the back, Lao Jia smiled meaningfully at the commander, pointed to Zhao Paner who was greeting the guests at the next table behind him, covered the side of his face with his other hand, and whispered.
"The sound of pine rain falling into the cauldron, white clouds hovering over the bowl of flowers, I have heard for a long time that tea operas were very popular in the Song Dynasty, can I invite Mrs. Zhao to show some tea art?"
Siteng always likes to drink tea, as well as cola, fruit juice, coffee, sparkling water, and milk tea.
Zhou Ji was counting with his fingers, when he suddenly felt a faint killing intent coming from the side, and retracted his hands into his sleeves embarrassingly.
Oh, almost forgot the wine.
In short, because she was born in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, tea operas began to decline gradually after the Yuan Dynasty, and there are no detailed records of tea distribution after the Qing Dynasty.
Although there is still a pirated version of the "Thousand Family Style" in the Fusang Tea Ceremony, and coffee latte art has emerged in Europe and the United States, but compared to these, Si Teng is still more interested in the traditional tea opera.
Si Teng elegantly rolled up the hair that had slipped from his ear, glanced threateningly at Zhou Ji inadvertently, and looked at Zhao Pan'er calmly, and said.
When Zhao Pan'er was just chatting, she found out about Si Teng's character from Hong Kui. Although Hong Kui couldn't say one, two, three, four, five, Zhao Pan'er saw that the cold and beautiful woman in front of her was in a certain way. It seems to be very similar to her, both of them are confident and proud from the bottom of their bones.
The difference is that the other party's pride comes from her calm self-confidence, while Zhao Paner's own pride comes from her twisted and pathological inferiority complex and obsession.
For no reason, Zhao Pan'er didn't like the woman in front of her. At least she didn't like the woman in front of her until Ouyang was admitted to Jinshi, and she was carried to Tokyo in eight palanquins.
Thinking of this, Zhao Pan'er couldn't help resenting her father who ignored the law.
If the Liao Kingdom slaughtered the people, just kill them, don’t watch them from the top of the city? What's the use of killing those Liao troops if you have to open the city gate to save the people? In the end, he was still impeached for disrupting the peace talks between the two countries. As a result, his family was ransacked and his head was beheaded.
"With oolong tea as the base, you can make characters like shepherd boy and jade rabbit. With green tea soup as the base, you can make landscape images such as heavy mountains and green smoke, and small lotus with sharp horns. If Miss Si Teng wants something else, it is also possible. Zhao Pan'er adjusted his emotions and said with a smile on his face.
"A green vine is enough." Si Teng wrote lightly, "No need to climb, it can grow independently."
"Then I want it too!" Hongkui's eyes lit up and said, "Would you draw a sunflower for me, Pan'er?"
Zhao Paner had a thought, and glanced at Zhou Ji who was next to Si Teng, Zhou Ji smiled wryly, "In that case, then please Mrs. Zhao also draw a vine, just like Si Teng."
That's about it.
The corners of Si Teng's mouth turned up slightly, like willow leaves with thin eyebrows, curved out in a shallow arc.
After a while, Zhao Pan'er brought over three cups of tea on a tray. Lao Jia, who was sitting behind Zhou Ji, noticed that the conductor was staring straight at Mrs. Zhao, with a greasy smile on his face, and couldn't help but groan in his heart. Xi, said with a straight voice: "The lady in charge, two cups of green phoenix marrow."
"Alright~"
Zhao Paner chatted with Hongkui for a few words, and always felt a little strange to hear her praise. She should be happy, but she had the illusion of Sun Sanniang coaxing her son to study.
Hmm. Definitely an illusion.
Zhao Paner responded to Lao Jia, and walked towards this side with the tea she had just brewed.
"You two want the blue phoenix marrow."
Qiantang is not big, Zhao Paner noticed the face of the person brought by Lao Jia, glanced inadvertently, and happened to meet his eyes.
Gu Qianfan adjusted his sitting posture as if nothing happened, then coughed lightly to cover it up, then touched his nose as if nothing happened, and turned his head to look away.
"Candied Yuemei." Zhao Pan'er put down the candied fruit together, and remembered something, "Oh, add some anjiang salt, it tastes even better." Zhao Pan'er said and walked towards the counter.
"Thanks for the shopkeeper's lady."
Old Jia turned around with a smile, saw Gu Qianfan's dismissive look, and complimented, "Country women, of course they can't be compared with the pink beauties in the capital."
Gu Qianfan said triumphantly: "When you finish this case, I will take you to Tokyo and let you wash your eyes well."
Hearing what the two said, Zhao Pan'er, who was holding a salt cup, paused, feeling a little worried, but it was not easy to get angry.
Hongkui didn't care about Zhao Pan'er anymore, even though the Zhao Pan'er in front of her was not the 'Little Ling'er~' she knew, but when she saw someone say that about her, she became very angry.
Just when she was about to stand up, a soft and slender hand held her arm. Hongkui looked at Si Teng suspiciously, but saw Si Teng shaking her head lightly, and Zhou Ji's concentrating voice came from her ear. .
"These two are obviously officials. You stand up for Zhao Pan'er and leave. How can she fight with officials when she lives in Qiantang?"
Si Teng's soft Yi rests on the back of Zhou Ji's hand, and uses Zhou Ji's true energy to transmit sound into the secret path, "There are many ways to release energy, for example."
After hearing what Si Teng said, Zhou Ji turned his head suddenly, and looked at Si Teng dumbfounded. Even without using sound transmission, Si Teng still understood the shock in Zhou Ji's eyes.
'You are clearly revengeful! '
‘So what? ’ Si Teng glanced back lightly, picked up the tea cup gracefully, and took a sip.
Bang~!
At the same time Si Teng picked up the teacup, Hongkui jumped up against the desk, cursed "a heartless person", picked up his own teacup and slammed it at Zhou Ji.
While Zhou Ji was reading "Listen to my explanation", he perfunctorily dodged sideways. At the end, he helped Hongkui throw the teacup to seal the tea in it from spilling. Taking advantage of the situation, he hugged Si Teng with a "panic look" and approached her He whispered in his ear: "Have you calmed down now?"
啪~ There was only a crisp sound, and since Lao Jia was sitting behind Zhou Ji, the teacup hit his head directly, and most of the hot tea splashed on Gu Qianfan's face and body according to inertia.
"Hiss~~ my lord! My lord, are you alright? My lord!" Lao Jia covered the back of his head, took out a big blood bag, looked at the ugly Gu Qianfan with a mournful face, and quickly got up to wipe his face with his sleeve.
Gu Qianfan really never expected to suffer such an innocent disaster, so he impatiently pulled off the sleeves that Lao Jia had wiped.
Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang came to their senses, and hurried forward to apologize. Lao Jia was still counting on waiting for Commander Gu to be transferred to Tokyo City, but such a commotion broke out, and he pushed them away angrily. There was a commotion in the street.
"Stop!" "Catch up!"
Hongkui looked out of the door with some regrets, thinking that when these two people came to find fault with her, she could just transfer the disaster from Zhao Pan'er to her side, and vent her anger for 'Xiao Ling'er'.
Unexpectedly, the plan was interrupted by a group of bandits armed with swords.
"Don't move!" "Don't move!" "Sit down, don't move!"
The gangsters were arrested and rushed to the tea shop. During the commotion, Lao Jia frowned slightly, and subconsciously wanted to help, but was sat down again, and Gu Qianfan, who was resting up, shook his head to stop him.
During this trip to Qiantang, Gu Qianfan was secretly instructed by his company to bring "Night Banquet Picture" back to the capital.
As a last resort, never reveal your identity.
Zhou Ji and Si Teng also did not make a move.
Si Teng didn't make a move because her strength has not yet recovered. She helped Zhou Ji block many explosions in the trap before, and her original source was damaged. It wasn't until this world woke up.
Zhou Ji didn't make a move because. With Hongkui around, how could he make a move?
Well, this is only one of the reasons. The other reason is that he still doesn't know if Si Teng has calmed down. In front of her, he really doesn't dare to provoke girls anymore.
On the other side, when the gangsters hijacked Zhao Pan'er, before Hongkui made a move, Zhao Pan'er begged the gangsters to let her life go with money as bait.
When the gangster took her to the counter and shifted her attention, Zhao Paner suddenly said, "Sanniang, basin!"
As soon as the words fell, a wooden basin flew out from the curtain of the back kitchen, and smashed the gangster holding Zhao Pan'er to the ground with a bang.
Another gangster who was not far away was taken aback when he saw this, and rushed towards the back kitchen with a long knife. The remaining three gangsters were walking towards the tables of Zhou Ji and Gu Qianfan. With one glance, he slashed at Zhao Pan'er with a fierce look in his eyes.
Sun Sanniang has killed pigs since she was a child. Although she is not big-bodied, her strength is no less than that of ordinary men. With a pig-killing knife in hand, that gangster is not her opponent.
And Zhao Paner's side is indeed dangerous.
She just resisted just to protect herself, and she was lucky to cooperate with Sun Sanniang to knock down one person. Seeing the three people besieged, at the time of danger, it seemed that a ray of red glowed in front of her eyes. Before Zhao Pan'er could see what was going on, they The long knives in his hands were all gone.
Hongkui's small and fair-skinned Rou Yi grasped the edge of the blade, and there was a loud crackling sound. Three burly men flew upside down, and the cold long knife shattered to the ground. With another wave of his hand, the remaining handle of the knife pierced through their clothes, Nail them firmly to the ground.
The bandit leader who was first hit by Sun Sanniang with a wooden basin shook his dizzy head, struggled to get up from the ground, glanced around in confusion, and saw that he was nailed to the ground by the handle of a knife and stuck to his throat with a butcher's knife The four companions, whose shaky bodies suddenly froze in place, tried to lie back on the ground and pretended to be dead, but it was too late, all eyes in the whole tea shop were staring at him, the bandit leader gritted his teeth and shouted angrily. With a sound of encouragement, he picked up the machete on the ground and fled towards the door. As soon as he reached the door, he was blocked by the police who rushed in, and he was arrested on the spot without any resistance.
Crisis contact, seeing the police coming in to pick up the gangsters, the original customers of the tea shop fled out one after another.
Everything in front of him was too familiar, Zhou Ji pursed his lips, fidgeting restlessly, if Si Teng was not by his side, he would almost lose his temper, and chased to the door of the tea shop to shout.
Si Teng and Zhou Ji have known each other for so long, and they haven't seen him like this before, but according to his understanding, he vaguely guessed that this guy is probably going to fall ill again, so he put down the teacup in his hand and said, "Tell me, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing." Zhou Ji shook his head, glanced at the door of the tea shop, his expression was in a daze, as if he saw himself chasing out the door, and shouted at the fleeing guests:
'Why! You haven't paid me yet~! '
