Chapter 105 Shall We Have A Cha (2/2)
No matter whether the information he was getting was true, or even it was a scam, this was too important to him. Zhang Zibang thought he needed to make this trip anyways, so he ran into the room and dragged his sister Zhang Ziyu out, and they headed to Meijiawu.
On the Tea Hill, in the yard of Meijiawu, Qin Sheng, who had been rushing here and there, finally had the opportunity to rest a while. Where they were was actually the home of Longjing Tea. This was where the top grade Long Jing was produced. It would be a waste not to have some Longjing Tea while he was here.
”Do you have tea? Make a pot so we can enjoy it,” Qin Sheng told Zhao Song.
Zhao Song instantly went through all the cupboards and he indeed had a various grade of tea and before long, he had brewed a pot for Qin Sheng. Qin Sheng took a sip of the cup of tea to taste it slowly and commented, ”Good tea!”
Longjing tea leaves were plucked off from the tea plants when they were still tender. They were categorized based on their quality as ”Lianxin”, ”Queshe” and ”Qiqiang” according to the stage when their leaves were plugs from the tea plants.
The days leading up to Qingming festival as well as afterwards was the period for collecting the raw materials for the top grade tea. Tea leaves harvested from ”Guyu” to ”Lixia” included ”Xiaosandang” which included a sprout and two leaves or buds in between two leaves belonged to the high and medium quality raw materials. ”Xiaqiu tea” included a tea leave and a sprout, and two open leaves. ”Xiaosandang” was harvested earlier in the season, while later on, the one sprout, two-to-three leaves tea leaves were harvested.
Therefore, the best Longjing tea leaves were usually those harvested just before and after the Qingming festival.
After brewing the pot of tea by adding boiling water three times, Qin Sheng received a call from Lin Xin on WeChat. Lin Xin was a little upset with Qin Sheng because it was going to be New Year soon and she had wanted Qin Sheng to make a trip back home with her. The second day of the New Year was also her mother's birthday and she wanted to spend time with her on her birthday.
Qin Sheng pondered for a moment. He remembered that they used to celebrate everyone's birthday in the family by having a sumptuous meal. This was especially true for his birthday. Uncle Lin and his wife would bring him on a trip back to Zhongnan Mountains and so he could spend his birthday with his grandfather. If his grandfather was busy, Uncle Lin and his wife would bring him to the downtown area for a trip.
Kinship was something Qin Sheng had longed for and the Lin family had filled this missing part of his life, otherwise, he would turn out to be an even weirder personality.
Therefore, Qin Sheng had always felt indebted to the Lin family, especially after his grandfather passed away when he treated the Lin family as the most important people in his life.
Qin Sheng was not around when the unfortunate event befell Uncle Lin, so he was unable to be of any help. for this reason, Qin Sheng worked very hard, hoping to become successful soon so he could help Uncle Lin clear his name.
Therefore, he straight away agreed to Lin Xin's request to accompany her back to Xi‘an.
At this moment, there was finally some movement outside and Hong Tao entered the room running and shouting, ”Mr. Qin, they've arrived!”
Qin Sheng got up slowly to receive whoever was at the door. He saw the Zhang siblings entering the yard through the gates. The moment the siblings set their eyes on Qin Sheng, they realized who this old friend was. It was none other than Qin Sheng, who was the one who lost their heirloom.
Qin Sheng stood in front of the steps and smilingly said, ”Brother Zhang, Ziyu, how have you been?”
Zhang Ziyu, who recovered from her shock, stared at Qin Sheng with eyes full of hatred, as if he were an archenemy. Zhang Ziyu was dressed in a Punk style and there were piercings everywhere on her body, with a messy braid on her head, one could see there were streaks of purple and red in the braid. She also wore dark eye shadow, giving her a standout look.
Before Qin Sheng could say a few words of greetings, Zhang Ziyu suddenly dashed towards Qin Sheng and shouted, ”You again!”
The men who came with the Zhang sibling had wanted to follow suit when they were stopped by Zhang Zibang. They could only stand around be spectators. They knew there was no way Qin Sheng would bring harm to Zhang Ziyu since she was not his target.
The violent Zhang Ziyu dashed towards Qin Sheng and kicked Qin Sheng with her spiked shoes. Whoever was struck by the spiked shoes would have their flesh tore open. Qin Sheng quickly dodged the kick and Zhang Ziyu's heavy feet landed on a green stone slabbed, thereby breaking it. One could see how powerful that kick of hers was.
”Can't we discuss this peaceably? Do you have to resort to violence every time we meet?” said Qin Sheng with a little frustration.
Zhang Ziyu could not be bothered but followed with another kick. Qin Sheng bend at his waist to dodge her attack again and thereafter caught her long legs with his hand and said, ”Can we please talk peaceably? If you insist to do this, I'm going to have to use violence too!”
”You are a thug, I'm going to kill you today,” bellowed Zhang Ziyu.
At this moment, Zhao Song, Bi Yong, and Hon Tao were all wearing a stunned expression on their face. Did Qin Sheng not say that they were his old friends? Why did his old friend launch a fatal attack on him?
Zhang Ziyu refused to back off but continued with her attack, when Qin Sheng's patience wore off and his anger was provoked.
When Zhang Ziyu was in the midst of making a turn, Qin Sheng grabbed her arm and locked it in place, while putting the other arm around her. It looked like they were a couple, and Zhang Ziyu's bosom was full and attractive.
”You lusty pervert, get your hands off me!” Zhang Ziyu struggled hard to break free from Qin Sheng's hold but was far from being his match. She could only resort to cursing.
Qin Sheng was not bothered by her screaming and yelling, but calmly turned to Zhang Zibang, saying, ”Brother Zhang, can you please discipline your little sister?”
”Enough, Ziyu,” said Zhang Zibang.
Qin Sheng let go of Zhang Ziyu after that and pushed her towards Zhang Ziyu. At this juncture, Zhang Zhiyu still wanted to retaliate but Zhang Zibang stopped her.
”Shall we have a chat?” Zhang Zibang said to Qin Sheng awkwardly.
