Chapter 158 Visiting the Tea Market
Quan Fei called, but it would take at least several hours for the person to get here from Beijing. So all they had to do now was wait.
Moreover, in order to prevent the other party from discovering that they have become suspicious, the next thing they have to do is go out and play!
Mother An watched the two unusual-looking cars leave the village, feeling incredibly worried. Yet, she had to act as if nothing had happened, which was a bit awkward for her.
Just as Mother An was trying to adjust her mood, she saw her mother about to go out with the mat she usually used to chat with the elderly at the village entrance.
Mother An was incredulous: "Mom, you, you don't even have any reaction? Don't you like Jie Zai the most?"
Grandma An said calmly, "Why should I react? What happened to Jie Zai didn't just happen today. It's been two years. If anything was going to happen, it would have happened long ago. Besides, I see that Jie Zai is doing well now."
Grandma An said calmly: "Nier, what's the point of your anxiety? Those kids look reliable. We can't help much if we worry here. I'll go out and chat with the old sisters and ask for some news. Maybe I can find out something." After that, she tucked the cushion under her armpit and walked out the door at a leisurely pace.
Mother An looked at her mother's back, speechless for a moment. But then she thought, what her mother said made sense. It was really pointless for her to just sit here and worry. She might as well go out and find out some news like her mother did. So she packed up and prepared to go out.
On the other side, Shanshan, Quanfei, An Qingjie and Jiang Ningming drove to the city of Tanzhou.
Under the guidance of An Qingjie, we first booked a hotel, and then went to the snack street to eat delicious food.
Na Shanshan really liked this kind of snack with local characteristics, especially under An Qingjie's guidance, she had a lot of special delicacies. This made Na Shanshan a little regretful that she didn't bring her senior sister with her.
But I was thinking in my heart that before my senior sister left, I must take her to visit this era and let her see the beauty of this era.
After eating delicious food, I am ready to search for travel guides and think about what fun places to go.
Unexpectedly, we had to make reservations in advance for every place we went to.
They all came here suddenly, so naturally they couldn't make an appointment in advance. They thought that they didn't sleep well last night, so they might as well just go back to the hotel and sleep.
Unexpectedly, on the way back, Shanshan saw a billboard not far from the snack street with the words "Tea City Wholesale Market" written on it, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"Well, you guys go take a rest, I'm going out for a walk~"
Shanshan's voice began to fade away, and anyone could tell that her heart was elsewhere.
Seeing Shanshan like this, everyone was no longer sleepy: "In that case, let's go to the tea market for a walk."
Arriving at the entrance of the tea market, Jiang Ningming suddenly called out to Shanshan: "Shanshan, please start a live broadcast. This will prevent others from suspecting you. By the way, the tea company hasn't had a live broadcast for a long time."
Shanshan thought about it and agreed.
[Oh my goodness, how can this be broadcasted secretly? If I hadn't been browsing the live broadcast room, I might have missed it.]
[Sparkling, here I come~]
Although the live broadcast was suddenly launched in the afternoon, the live broadcast room instantly attracted thousands of people. And the number is still rising.
Shanshan smiled and greeted, "Good afternoon, everyone. I'm live streaming this afternoon because I'm at Taobao. Look what's behind me?"
As Shanshan gestured, Jiang Ningming's camera turned to the large characters behind Shanshan.
【??? Shanshan went to Hunan Province?】
[Wow, Tanzhou City? I'm right there!!! Wait for me, Twinkle!]
That Shanshan smiled and said, "Yes, we are now in the tea wholesale market in Tanzhou City, Hunan Province. Speaking of Hunan Province, it is a place with a profound tea culture. There are several special teas that are particularly famous, such as Anhua black tea, Gaoqiao Yinfeng, Jinjing Maojian, and Gounaogong tea. There are still many kinds of red tea. I came to this tea wholesale market today just to see if I can find some good tea, and I also want to share these special teas from Hunan Province with you. Maybe I can find some special teas in a while, everyone come and take a look with me!"
As for fans who want to meet in person, please come if you can, so as not to delay everyone's business. Also, please be safe on the road!"
After Shanshan finished speaking, he walked into the tea wholesale market with great interest. The audience in the live broadcast room also left messages on the barrage, expressing their interest and expectations for these teas.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the tea market, his eyes lit up: "I didn't expect to see such an interesting place right after arriving!"
On the left side of the entrance, there is a time-honored "Liuhe Teahouse". Shanshan walked over without any hesitation.
After asking the boss and finding out that live streaming was allowed in the store, Shanshan pointed the camera at the store and started filming.
"Boss, two cups of Liuhe tea."
When Shanshan asked for Liuhe tea, the boss kindly reminded her, "Liuhe tea is not very drinkable for most people. Would you like to try something else? We have many varieties of tea here."
That Shanshan smiled: "Don't worry. We are here to learn about tea culture."
The boss smiled and said, "Okay, please wait a moment."
After the boss left, the four of them sat casually in a window seat in the teahouse's lobby. Shan Shan began to speak, "Liuhe tea isn't just a certain type of tea; it can actually be considered a type of tea therapy.
There are two types of Liuhe tea in Tanzhou, one is the Chinese patent medicine Liuhe tea, and the other is the special tea ginger salt tea.
The main ingredients of the Chinese patent medicine Liuhe Tea are hawthorn, ghost feather arrow, smilax, inverted knotweed, forsythia, hairy musk, honeysuckle, golden osmanthus, schizonepeta, artemisia capillaris, elsholtzia ciliata, schizonepeta tenuifolia, mint, ground scutellaria, artemisia annua, kapok, light bamboo leaves, atractylodes, gardenia, sedge leaves, selfheal, hawthorn, scutellaria, water lily, white imperata root, licorice, etc.
It clears away heat and dampness, relieves summer heat, and aids digestion. It can relieve symptoms such as fever, fatigue, discomfort in the limbs, headache, and bloating caused by food stagnation. It is commonly used to treat colds caused by external invasion of summer heat and dampness, accumulation of damp heat in the lungs, and disharmony of the lung defense system. It is also used to treat headaches caused by summer heat and dampness disturbing the clear orifices, and food stagnation caused by spleen deficiency.
The special tea drink ginger salt tea is mainly made of ginger, salt, soybeans, sesame seeds, tea leaves and boiling water.
It has the effects of dispelling cold and dampness, strengthening the spleen and stomach, stimulating appetite and stopping vomiting, resolving phlegm and relieving cough, inducing sweating and relieving exterior symptoms, seasoning and harmonizing the stomach, benefiting the kidneys and moistening dryness, strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness, replenishing blood and nourishing deficiency, and detoxifying.
Because the Chinese patent medicine Liuhe Tea is more targeted and has medicinal properties, I guess the store will serve ginger salt tea later."
