Chapter 64: A Scholar Talks About Spirituality, A Literati Has a Style!

Chapter 64. Scholars talk about spirit, while literati have strength of character!

Tea People's Commune.

The house has not been decorated for a long time, and it looks a bit decayed and old. A few old tables and chairs are placed randomly without any aesthetic feeling.

Desolate and clean, probably this is one of the few advantages of this teahouse.

There were no other guests in the teahouse, except for Fang Yan who had just walked in, there was only a teahouse buddy who was dozing off on a wicker chair.

Fang Yan stepped harder on purpose, trying to wake up the teahouse attendant.Unexpectedly, the man slept soundly, and he didn't know if he heard footsteps, so he just turned over and continued to fall asleep.

Fang Yan had no choice but to call out: "Man, let's have a pot of Longjing tea."

The guy finally woke up, a middle-aged man in his 30s with slightly curly hair and a pale face.Wiping the water stains from the corners of his mouth, he adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at Fang Yan and asked, "What do you want?"

"Come to a pot of Longjing tea." Fang Yan said again.

"No," said the man.

"Then what kind of tea do you have here?" Fang Yan asked.

"Do you want Maojian tea? Only Maojian tea. I grow it at home and fry it by hand. No spices and tea essence are added." The middle-aged man began to advertise his products.

Fang Yan looked at the middle-aged man carefully and asked, "Are you the boss?"

The middle-aged man smiled wryly and said, "It's also a buddy."

"What's the name?" Fang Yan asked.

"Zhu Jian." The middle-aged man said.

Fang Yan stood up again, walked up to the middle-aged man, and said with a smile: "I am Fang Yan. I asked you to meet."

"Teacher Fang?" Zhu Jian looked at Fang Yan in shock. "Are you Teacher Fang Yan?"

Zhu Jian couldn't help but be surprised.

Zhu Jian received a call today. The caller claimed to be Fang Yan, the current Chinese teacher in Class [-] of Suzaku High School.

Although Zhu Jian was unwilling to have any communication with that school, the other party persuaded him repeatedly and said that he could find a way to restore his reputation.Zhu Jian hesitated again and again, and finally agreed to meet Fang Yan.

That incident was like a slender thorn stuck in his throat, making him unable to eat or sleep peacefully.

On the Literati Double Name Festival, the heavy burden of hooking up with female students made him almost unable to hold his head up in front of his family and friends.

He needs relief, a chance to travel lightly.

Fang Yan's words hit his heart, making it hard for him to refuse.

He originally thought that Fang Yan would be a middle-aged man like himself.However, is the young man in front of him too young and immature?Isn't the purpose of Suzaku High School to run a school for elites?How could you recruit people at will?

"It's me." Fang Yan said.He saw the thoughtful questioning in Zhu Jian's eyes, and said, "Shall we sit down and talk?"

"I'll make you a cup of tea." Zhu Jian said.

Maojian tea is not as fragrant as Tieguanyin tea, and not as delicate and graceful as Longjing tea, but she has her own unique charm.

The tiny hair tip slowly stretched out after rolling several times in the boiling water, and a layer of fine white hair fluttered in the glass.At first glance, it looks like the tea leaves have not been cleaned.In fact, these white flakes are the essence of Maojian tea.

Tea lovers call it 'Pekkoe', which is rich in substances beneficial to the human body.When drinking tea, drink these pekoe into your stomach together.

Fang Yan picked up the glass and took a sip of the tea, felt it carefully, and said with a smile, "Good tea."

Zhu Jian was expressionless, not paying attention to Fang Yan's compliment.How many words are trustworthy in the words on the scene?

"If my guess is correct, these tea trees grow on the top of the mountain. The wind blows and rains, and the sun is exposed to the sun, so it makes people feel that the leaves are not green and the tea is old." Fang Yan took another sip and commented: "However, The people who pick the tea work very hard, and only the young buds are taken from each piece of tea. This extracts all the essence of a tea tree."

"The people who fry tea are also masters. They use burnt charcoal ashes to roast, and the fire is neither heavy nor vigorous, which retains the tenderness of the tea tip and the natural fragrance of the tea. As you said just now, although no spices and tea essence are added, But the taste of this tea is even better because of it.”

Zhu Jian was deeply shocked, and said: "Teacher Fang is a master of tea ceremony. This tea was grown by the old father of the family. The tea mountain that was distributed happened to be on the top of the mountain, and it was difficult to water the tea trees on the mountain top. The color of the tea leaves is gray and unattractive. In order to sell them at a good price, I asked my parents to take only the tips, that is, the buds of the tea tree, and then go back to roast them myself——after I lost my job, I thought I usually like to drink tea. There is a teahouse opened at the gate of this community. As you can see, because of insufficient capital and the remote location, it is very difficult to survive.”

Just now Zhu Jian thought of contemptuously questioning Fang Yan, but now he no longer has a perfunctory mentality because of his tender face.

Fang Yan smiled and said, "I didn't come here to taste tea with Mr. Zhu. I think Mr. Zhu is not in the mood to drink tea now."

Zhu Jian smiled wryly and said, "Indeed."

Fang Yan looked at Zhu Jian seriously, and asked, "Mr. Zhu, are the school rumors true?"

Zhu Jian didn't answer, but looked at Fang Yan thoughtfully, and said, "I don't understand, why are you asking me this question? Whose position do you represent? Yourself? Suzaku High School?"

"I represent myself." Fang Yan said.

"Because of sympathy? Or curiosity?"

"There is sympathy. There is also curiosity." Fang Yan said frankly. "There is still understanding."

"understand?"

"The understanding of sympathy for one another." Fang Yan said.

"What do you mean?" Zhu Jian was puzzled.

"Some time ago, I was almost expelled from school for dancing with a female student in a bar. Of course, if the media reported it widely, I'm afraid it was not just a simple expulsion from school." Fang Yan said.

"Are you dancing with a female student in a bar?" Zhu Jian looked at Fang Yan with vigilance and contempt.What kind of person is this, you think I'm the same as you, so you ran over to find comfort?

"There is something else hidden." Fang Yan explained. "The matter is actually very simple, not as nasty as the outside world guesses."

"Why didn't the media report it?" Zhu Jian asked. "Don't the media like this kind of news the most?"

"Because there are many honest people who stand up and speak for me." Fang Yan said with a smile while playing with the glass in his hand. "They didn't believe I would do something like that."

"It seems that you are much luckier than me." Zhu Jian sighed.Everyone knew about his incident, which led to him being rejected by the entire Huacheng education circle, and the female student was unwilling to be humiliated and transferred to other cities to study.

He knew they were innocent, but who would believe it?

"I don't deny this." Fang Yan said. "My luck has been good."

"Because you have been wronged by others, you want to come here and listen to my story. If possible, you will find a way to help me reverse the case?"

"The most important thing is to return your innocence." Fang Yan said. "This hat is too heavy, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to put it on people's heads for a lifetime. There is also that female student-although I have never seen her. But if she is really wronged, then this matter It might have ruined her."

"Yes." Zhu Jian's face showed pain.She covered her face with her hands, tears streaming from between her long and thin fingers.The fingers were wet and flowed to the back of the hand. "Destroy her."

Fang Yan sighed softly.

After a long time, Zhu Jian moved his hands away from his face, but there were still tears in his eyes.

"I can tell you clearly that we are innocent." Zhu Jian said. "I swear by my personality—no, all of me."

"I believe it." Fang Yan nodded. "So what happened?"

"You are the head teacher of class nine, do you know Zheng Guodong?" Zhu Jian asked.

"I know." Fang Yan nodded. "Is it related to him?"

"I had just been a language teacher in Class Nine, and I had many conflicts with him. He skipped class, drank, beat up his classmates, and was the bully in the class. Moreover, he had contacts with some hooligans in the society, and his methods of doing things were not like is a student--"

"He was molesting a female classmate by the Que River, and I happened to catch him. I scolded him and drove him away, and then took off my coat and put it on the girl ----- I didn't expect this scene to be filmed The photos became the evidence that I was doing mediocre things by the river with the female student in my arms."

Zhu Jian slammed his fist on the thick table, and shouted: "I, Zhu Jian, have read a lot of books, how could I do such a beastly thing?"

"Have you explained it to the school?" Fang Yan asked.

"Who would believe it?" Zhu Jian roared with red eyes. "Who would believe it? Zheng Guodong's father is the school manager, who would believe it?"

Fang Yan was silent.

Zhu Jian's matter is really tricky.On the one hand, he was photographed just like himself.And more carelessly than himself, his clothes were worn on girls.He walked out of the woods with the girl in his arms.If he said that he had nothing to do with girls, few people would believe him.

Of course, if that's all it is, if Zhu Jian and the hurt girl stand up to accuse Zheng Guodong at the same time, there is no chance that things will turn around.

The most critical issue is that Zheng Guodong's father, Zheng Tiancheng, is the school manager of Suzaku.Who would rather offend Zheng Tiancheng and stand up to reverse the case for Zhu Jian when the evidence is solid?

"I believe it." Fang Yan said seriously. "I believe you are innocent."

Zhu Jian looked at Fang Yan with a look of surprise.

"I will help you reverse the case, and I will return your innocence." Fang Yan continued.

"Why?" Zhu Jian asked.He said very clearly that Zheng Guodong's father is Zheng Tiancheng, why is he willing to risk his life?

If he offended Zheng Tiancheng because of his own affairs, would he still be able to stay as the language teacher of Class Nine?Are you afraid that you will be expelled from the school like yourself?

"Because we are all scholars." Fang Yan said seriously. "They don't believe that scholars talk about spirit, and literati have strength of character. I believe it."

(ps: Sorry, I just wrote Chapter 3. I will write Chapter 4 even if I don’t sleep tonight. Don’t wait, get up early tomorrow and read it again.)
