Chapter 691 Jingdong Teahouse
âOf course itâs true. How can I joke about this matter?â
Hua Mingrui looked enthralled. She recalled the scene at that time and said, âWhen the Nihon people came to challenge us, we didnât take them seriously. But their skills were really better than ours.â
âAlthough they learned many things from us, their achievements are no worse than ours. If it were not for the appearance of Medical Sage, we would have been completely defeated.â
Speaking of this, she turned her head to look at the painting on the wall. âUnfortunately, when the challenge ended, I returned to the capital. I didnât see him. At that time, I brought the painting back as a keepsake.â
âAre you in love with him? Wei Yanran said, âNo wonder you refused to give me this painting. It turns out that you want to keep it so you will remember him.â
Hua Mingrui blushed and said, âI donât love him. After all, we have only met once, but he is definitely the person I respect most in my life.â
âSince I was a child, I had never admired anyone, especially in the aspect of the tea ceremony. I was given the nickname of the Tea Fairy, and I accepted it.â
âBut since I saw his tea ceremony, I knew that I was too weak. How could he have reached the supreme realm of the Pervading Fragrance so easily?â
âAfter seeing his tea skills, I also benefited a lot. Even after so many days of hard work, I barely reached the primary level of the Pervading Fragrance.â
Wei Yanran said, âJudging from the expression of worship on your face, you must really like him. If you like someone, you donât have to meet him many times. Just like me, although I have only seen this painting once, I have fallen in love with him at first sight. I am willing to marry him.â
âOf course youâre willing. Hua Mingrui said, âMedical Sage is an extraordinary person. Not only is he proficient in medical skills, but he is also proficient at playing all kinds of instruments, chess, calligraphy and painting. Generally speaking, God is fair and will not give such outstanding talents to a person with such good looks.â
âBut he is not in this range. His talents are amazing and he is handsome at the same time. He has a good temperament and his words and deeds are very elegant and refined. Who can refuse an outstanding man like him?â
Wei Yanran looked at the Cold Plum Painting in front of her and said with a fascinated look, âIf I hadnât grown up with you and know that you are generally arrogant and never the type to praise anyone, I would have thought that you were lying to me.â
âIs there really such a perfect man in the world? Why canât I meet him?â
Hua Mingrui said, âMedical Sage is absolutely a perfect and respectable person. The reason why I named this teahouse Jingdong Teahouse is to express my admiration for him.â
Wei Yanran said with a surprised look on her face, âI see. Iâm wondering why you, such a refined person would give this name to the teahouse. Please explain to me. Whatâs the meaning of Jingdong?â
âDong is his name, Medical Sage is called Qin Haodong. So I named the teahouse Jingdong Teahouse as a mark of my respect.â
âWhat? His name is Qin Haodong?â
As soon as Hua Mingrui finished speaking, Wei Yanran screamed.
âWhatâs wrong? Why are you making such a big fuss? Is there anything special about this name?â
Wei Yanran said, âIf I remember correctly, the fiancĂ© that my family arranged for me seems to have the same name. He comes from the Qin family in the capital and his name is Qin Haodong.â
Hua Mingrui shook her head and said, âItâs not a big deal. There are too many people in the world who have the same name. Medical Sage is born and bred in Jiangnan City and has nothing to do with the Qin family. He is in Jiangnan City, so itâs impossible for him to be in the capital.â
Wei Yanran felt Hua Mingruiâs words made sense. She sighed and said, âI think so. How could there be such a coincidence in the world?â
âIt is said that Qin Haodong has very excellent skills. He reached the terrifying level of a level nine Supreme Power Realm at such a young age. Unfortunately, he is not my cup of tea. I do not like warrior artists. I prefer those who have literary talent.â
âI wish we could do an exchange. If God can send the Medical Sage you mentioned to me, then I will die with no regrets in this life.â
Hua Mingrui said, âDonât think so much about it. Itâs very likely that there are some unsatisfactory things in the world. I believe they are talking about women like us.â
Wei Yanran said, âYouâre good. At least, you wonât have a hard life like me. You will not be forced by your family to marry someone you donât like.â
âNow I really want to go to Jiangnan City to find Medical Sage, but I also know that the Wei family is powerful. I am afraid that I canât be with him when I go to Jiangnan City. I will only bring disaster to him.â
âBut if I canât find the person I like, whatâs the difference if I marry him or not?â Hua Mingrui sighed and said, âForget it, donât think too much about unhappy things.â
âTodayâs tea fair is about to begin. Letâs wait and see if someone will spring some surprises on us.â
Wei Yanran said, âI donât think itâs possible. The purpose of your tea fair is to find someone who can surpass you in the art of tea, and then improve your own realm in the art of tea ceremony.â
âBut I think the chances are slim. With your tea skills, Medical Sage is the only one who can surpass you in the whole world.â
Hua Mingrui said, âForget it. Letâs not talk about it anymore. Itâs better to have hope than to have no hope at all.â
Wei Yanran suddenly remembered something and said, âMingrui, since your grandfather is seriously ill and the medical skills of Medical Sage are so good, why didnât you invite him to the capital to treat your grandfather?â
âIf only you could invite him here. Even if I canât stay with him until the end of my life, it will be good just to see him. Otherwise, it will be my lifelong regret.â
Hua Mingrui said, âIâve mentioned about Medical Sage before, but my uncle does not believe in Chinese medicine practitioners at all, so he refused directly.â
âAlthough Grandpa is nice to me, itâs necessary to get my uncle to agree to the treatment, so I donât dare to invite the Medical Sage to the capital, rashly.â
âOtherwise, it would be too embarrassing if my uncle did not allow him to treat grandpa when he came all the way here.â
Wei Yanran nodded. She agreed with Hua Mingruiâs words, but her face was full of regret.
Qin Haodong and Ye Qing arrived at the Jingdong Teahouse. He looked up at the antique teahouse and couldnât help but sigh, âThis teahouse is good. From the design alone, it can be seen that the owner has a very high artistic conception of the tea ceremony.â
âYou are a visionary. The owner of this teahouse is called the Tea Fairy. Her tea skills have reached a superb level.â
âEveryone who comes here to participate in the tea fair can have a taste of a cup of tea made by the Tea Fairy. The taste is really wonderful. Itâs hard to describe it. So every weekend, I will come here to have a cup of tea.â
Ye Qing licked her delicate red lips with her tongue and said with an expression of infinite aftertaste, âA cup of tea is really not enough, so I will get two cups of tea today since you are with me.â
âUhâŠâ
Qin Haodong said, âYou brought me here to attend the tea party just to have another cup of tea?â
Ye Qing said with a smile, âOf course not. Itâs just one of my purpose.â
âIn the past, when I came here alone to drink tea, there were always some annoying guys who came to harass me. Now with you by my side, it will save me a lot of trouble. I can enjoy my tea in peace.â
Qin Haodong had a wry smile on his face. There were two uses for him today. First, he could be swapped for a cup of tea. Second, he can be used as a shield.
While they were talking, they walked into the teahouse. The people who came to the teahouse had be members of the teahouse. Ye Qing showed her membership card and then took Qin Haodongâs arm and walked into the lobby together.
The lobby looked very wide, about 100 square meters, and was filled with tea tables.
At this time, the hall was almost full of guests, and there was only a table in the corner, where they could sit.
âFortunately, we came in time. Otherwise, we would not have a seat.â
Ye Qing took Haodongâs arm and walked toward the corner.
When a rich playboy saw Ye Qing, he was about to come over and say hello, but he saw Qin Haodong. He frowned and said, âMiss Ye, when did you start having a gigolo to keep you company?â
Ye Qing glared at him and said, âWhat does it have to do with you? Thatâs what I like.â
The man blushed with embarrassment, but he had no choice but to shake his head and sit down. The other people who wanted to flirt with Ye Qing also gave up when they saw this scene.
After they sat down, Ye Qing said with a smile, âItâs really useful to have you with me. Itâs much quieter.â
Qin Haodong said, âSister, when did you start keeping me? Why didnât I get paid?â
Ye Qing said with a smile, âThereâs no need for us to talk about money. If you think itâs unfair, you can take me as your lover. I donât want a penny.â
Qin Haodong knew that it would not be advantageous to quarrel with her. He looked up and saw an area which was cordoned off by a beaded curtain on the other side of the hall, which looked very elegant. There was a tea table in it. He asked curiously, âWhat is that place used for? Why is it separated?â
âThatâs the Tea Fairyâs seat, Ye Qing said, âThe tea party is held by the Tea Fairy. This is done once every week and the person who comes here can get to taste the tea made by the Tea Fairy.â
âAfter that, you can show your tea skills separately. Finally, the Tea Fairy will choose the top three. As long as you are selected, you can sit and drink tea with the Tea Fairy inside the beaded curtain area and have a cup of the best tea brewed by her.â
âOh!â Qin Haodong nodded. âThe Tea Fairy must be a beauty. Are all the people here waiting for the Tea Fairy?â
He saw that most of the people who were drinking tea were men. So far, Ye Qing was the only woman. As for the title of the Tea Fairy, there were many people who had such a nickname. It might not have any connection with Hua Mingrui.
âOf course she is a beauty, a superior beauty,â Ye Qing said, âbut not everyone is here for the Tea Fairy. Some of them are here to see Wei Yanran, one of the three beauties in the capital.â
âWei Yanran, what is she doing here?â
Qin Haodong was a little surprised. Wei Junzheng had just come to propose marriage today and he had planned to marry Wei Yanran as part of his strategy to conquer the Wei family. He didnât expect that they would meet so soon.
âWhatâs wrong? Are you nervous? Ye Qing laughed and said, âWei Yanran is the best friend of the Tea Fairy. She will make an appearance every time. If you can go inside and drink with the Tea Fairy, you will be lucky to see her actual face.â
âTherefore, most of the people who attend the tea party are here for the sake of these two beauties. Their dream is that one day they can become the guest of honor.â
âThese young masters of aristocratic families only know how to drink tea before, but they do not know how to make tea. However, for this purpose, many people have started practicing tea skills, including the eldest young master of the Qin family, Qin Zhong.â
While they were talking, a man came in from outside. It was Qin Zhong, who had just been shaved by Qin Haodong.
Qin Zhongâs dressing today was a little different from his usual style. There was no longer any shiny hair on his head. Instead, he had a hat on his head.
As the young master of the Qin family, someone had already reserved a seat for him. After Qin Zhong came, he was busy looking at the inside of the beaded curtain area and did not see Qin Haodong and Ye Qing at all.
