When she turned her head again, she saw Wen Chen wearing a crescent white embroidered cloud pattern gown, and took off the official hat of Jin Yiwei, with only a jade crown on his head, and a jade bone fan in his hand.

Wen Chen dressed in regular clothes, he looked like a carefree nobleman.

Wen Chen got out of the carriage, and Lan Ying'er opened the bundle. Inside was a light blue double-breasted straight-collar brocade gown, and underneath it was a floral skirt of the same color. There was also a pearl hairpin, and a pair of Sapphire earrings.

"Where did you get such a nice dress and jewelry?"

Lan Ying'er murmured, and changed into this set of extremely luxurious clothes, and put the jewelry on her head and ears.

When she got out of the carriage, Wen Chen glanced at her and was slightly taken aback.

Her delicate appearance, coupled with the luxurious clothes and jewelry, made her even more charming than Huajiao.It's just that there is a little makeup on the face, which is a little out of tune.But it doesn't matter, looking at her fair complexion and pink lips, after watching her for a long time, she doesn't feel disobedient.

The two opened the bamboo curtain of the tea shop one after the other, and just stepped into the threshold, they heard a sweet voice full of ears.

"Hey! Two guest officers, please come inside!"

Chao Wenchen yelled and came to receive the lady Xue Ling who was wearing gorgeous makeup, her breasts were half exposed, and her waist was as thin as a willow.

Lady Xue's red phoenix eyes were instantly captivated by Wen Chen's beauty. She looked straight at Wen Chen, and unconsciously leaned towards Wen Chen's side: "Master, please sit here!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to guide Wen Chen and Lan Yinger to go inside.

Lan Yinger visually observed that the tea shop looks ordinary from the outside, but the interior is very elegantly decorated. There are more than a dozen tea seats near the gate, all scattered seats, and there are elegant seats next to each other on both sides of the wall. Blocked by cloth curtains, and walking in, there are elegant small rooms with sliding wooden doors. When there are no guests, the wooden doors are open.

In the innermost and central position are the storyteller's table and chairs.

Generally speaking, teahouses have a storytelling session in the morning and a session in the afternoon. Now it is noon, and all the guests in the morning session have left, leaving only two tables of customers who have not left, so the teahouse is still relatively clean.

Wen Chen casually entered a small cubicle, Lady Xue stepped forward and invited Wen Chen and Lan Ying'er in.

The small cubicle is a seat for four people. After Wen Chen and Lan Yinger are seated, Mrs. Xue stands beside Wen Chen and asks softly, "Master, West Lake Longjing, or Fujian tea..."

Wen Chen said: "I heard that you have Wuyi group tea here?"

Mrs. Xue smiled and said, "Young Master, what are you talking about? Who dares to sell tuancha nowadays? In the early years, the imperial court gave up tuancha and only sold loose tea."

Wen Chen looked at Mrs. Xue with a cold face: "Let's just have tuan tea! I can still afford the price of ten taels of silver."

Lan Ying'er was startled when she heard that, she wanted ten taels of silver just to make tea?She bought Ye Wan for only two taels of silver!Can't help but sigh, in this world, a living person is not worth the price of making tea.

But she knew that group tea was not allowed as early as the Taizu period, and all the group tea in Wuyi was transformed into loose tea.

There are still tuancha tea nowadays, that is, some tea merchants and tea growers make tuancha against the imperial court, or some small tea farmers steam tuancha according to the old techniques and sell it to black merchants.

This also shows that Jin Yiwei has a thorough understanding of Mrs. Xue's details.

Seeing that Wen Chen knew so much about the tea shop, Mrs. Xue thought that it must have been recommended by the old customer, so she quickly smiled and said happily: "Guest officer, I will prepare it for you." After finishing speaking, she yelled towards the counter In the past, "Change the tea set."

To change the tea set is to replace the tea set that was placed properly for making tea with boiling water with the tea set for ordering tea.

Lan Ying'er cooks gourmet food, and tea is used in some dishes, so she has a little understanding of tea.

When the exquisite tea ordering tools arrived, Mrs. Xue brought a wooden box on a red sandalwood tray. After she closed the door, she sat down on the side next to the door and opened the wooden box. Real tea cakes.

Mrs. Xue first lit the charcoal stove, poured clean water into the clay pot on the stove with a wooden spoon, then knocked some tea leaves with a delicate small hammer, and then crushed them into foam with an anvil...

When the tea soup was ready, Wen Chen signaled to Lan Yinger, Lan Yinger picked up the teacup, gently blew the heat from the tea soup, and then sipped it into her lips. With the clearness of loose tea, the taste of round tea is more vigorous and refreshing.

When Lan Ying'er was putting the teacup, the silk towel in her hand accidentally moved the teacup, splashing all the tea soup on her dress, and Madam Xue panicked.

"Oh! I have to be a guest later! What should I do?"

Wen Chen also frowned: "Madam Zuo Shilang must let you go, your clothes are so dirty, isn't it disrespectful to Madam."

Lan Ying'er pouted, with a coquettish look on her face: "Brother Chen, what should I do? Mrs. Ren is very particular."

Wen Chen raised his hand and lightly clenched it into a fist, put it between his lips, gnawed twice, and then looked at Mrs. Xue: "Why don't you borrow your clothes from the proprietress!" He was thinking about Lan Yinger's "Brother Chen" in his heart. , It sounds like it really makes him very comfortable!

"Ah!" Mrs. Xue did not expect him to have such an idea.

Lan Yinger looked at Mrs. Xue with a busy smile: "Miss Boss, you see, I am going to be a guest at Mr. Zuo Dailang's place in a short while. His grandson is getting married, and he will be entertaining guests for three days! We didn't have time to go there yesterday, but today is a must." I'm going to pay my respects. If you don't have any suitable clothes in your room, I'll borrow one for you to wear."

Mrs. Xue laughed awkwardly: "Okay!" Suddenly she asked, "Are you going to the family of Mr. Ren, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Officials?"

Lan Yinger nodded.

Wen Chen said again: "Don't worry, I will never lose you a set of clothes. If there is a suitable one, I will let her change the clothes with you, or pay you money."

Mrs. Xue hurriedly laughed and said: "My family doesn't care for a mere set of clothes, but seeing the girl dressed so delicately, I'm afraid I can't find what the girl likes."

Lan Ying'er: "No problem, no problem, you and I are about the same size, as long as you dress appropriately."

Mrs. Xue put down the tea set in her hand, picked up her skirt and got up: "The girl, please come with me."

Lan Ying'er followed Mrs. Xue to the side door of the tea shop. After entering, there was a narrow wooden ladder. It seemed that Mrs. Xue lived upstairs.

Upstairs is an attic. Although the place is small, it is neatly arranged.

Lady Xue opened the door of the closet, and there were dozens of dresses inside. The fabrics of each set were very good, and the colors were very bright.

Lan Yinger picked out a set that looked a little plain.

"Girl, you can change here! The servants will go down first."

Lan Ying'er hugged Mrs. Xue's dress, smiled at Mrs. Xue, and watched Mrs. Xue go downstairs.

Lan Ying'er was the only one in the attic, so she immediately put down her dress and rummaged through the closet.Her main purpose is to find the exact same fabric as the puppet.In the end, she couldn't find it in the closet, so she searched around in the attic, and found a basket for needlework, but there was no clue.

After staying for about the same time, Lan Ying'er put down Lady Xue's dress and went downstairs as it was.

When she arrived at the cubicle, Lady Xue asked in surprise, "Hey, girl, is it because the clothes don't fit?"

Lan Ying'er smiled and said, "It's a little inappropriate. I thought about it for a while, anyway, I have to pass through a clothing store, and I can just buy a suitable one there."

Mrs. Xue nodded: "That's fine, girl, please drink tea!"

At this time, Mrs. Xue was asking Wen Chen about the Ren family.

"I heard that the bride is Ji Xiang, the younger sister of Lord Ji, the commander of Jin Yiwei. Lord Ji cares about his sister. If the grandson of the Ren family married Ji Xiang, wouldn't the Ren family be prosperous! I heard that Lord Ji is by the emperor's side." The red man."

Wen Chen just smiled lightly to show his approval.

Mrs. Xue asked again: "However, how did the slave family hear that the marriage of the young master of the Ren family had changed this morning? I don't know what happened? The slave family also heard that the young master of the Ren family fell seriously ill on the way?"

Lan Ying'er thought to herself, it seems that the news of Ji Xiang's death has not reached the capital, the tea shop is a place where people talk a lot, and the news that Mrs. Xue said is just an excuse for those who go to the wedding banquet.

This also shows that Jin Yiwei is very capable and meticulous in his work.

Wen Chen was silent for a moment, and suddenly looked at Mrs. Xue with a serious face: "I heard that Mrs. Xue, you and Ren Changsheng are old friends?"

Madam Xue's complexion changed immediately when she heard the words, and the rouge on her cheeks became even redder. She smiled and said, "This is nothing." The young master is dealing with people from the Ren family, and his body is unclean, if the people from the Ren family find out, they will definitely not let her go.Especially Master Ji, Commander of Jin Yiwei, that is King Yama, if he finds out that she is having an affair with his brother-in-law Ren Changsheng, will she still survive?Therefore, she will not admit this matter easily.

Wen Chen changed his mind: "I just heard that Ren Changsheng often comes to teahouses and regards you, Mrs. Xue, as a bosom friend."

Madam Xue felt relieved after hearing this, and her facial expression relaxed a little: "This is true. This tea shop opened by my family has a good business and many customers. Those customers have troubles on weekdays, so they like to be in the teahouse. The slaves come and sit here for a while, chatting about their thoughts from time to time, and those who come and go will regard the slaves as confidantes."

Wen Chen cast a look at Lan Yinger.

Lan Yinger immediately understood his intentions, and immediately asked Mrs. Xue with a smile, "I heard that Ren Changsheng has three lovers! Is this true?"

Originally, this matter had to be talked about by the number one friend, Qiao, but she thought that Ah Qiao was pregnant and should not be easily provoked, so she didn't ask about it.

Madam Xue's expression froze, and she couldn't help shaking her hand holding the teacup, but she tried her best to hide her emotions: "Well! The slave family is not very clear, after all, how can you explain the things in the back garden so clearly? .”

Lan Yinger nodded: "That's true."

"However..." Madam Xue's eyelids drooped slightly, and she said while she was serving the tea soup, "I heard that besides Miss Ji Xiang, the young master of the Ren family also has an outer room, which is the maid in his former room, named Aqiao , then Ah Qiao is pregnant with his child. Ah Qiao is honest, but just because she is too honest, she will be bullied."

Lan Ying'er heard that Mrs. Xue hadn't finished talking, so she put on a gossip face and asked, "Who bullied you?"
