When a person reaches middle age, he develops wrinkles and refines his character. It is like an old thing that has been around for many years. It is precious when it loses its luster and has patina. But unfortunately, only those who know how to do it are valuable. Only people know.
Yesterday, Wenjun and I went to learn the tea ceremony. We took a bath and changed clothes specially, and wore Chinese clothes for the appointment, so we met a high-end woman with a "buck."
? "Bamboo Forest Listening to the Rain", just the name of the teahouse is very evocative. When we get to the boundary, the white walls and gray tiles are indeed very charming. When you enter the shop, you can see several bamboos and sweet-scented osmanthus. The decoration and furniture are all very elegant and elegant in Chinese style. There is a framed calligraphy hanging on the two walls, one horizontally and one vertically, which reads "Bama Tea School". This is the destination of our trip.
While several of our students were introducing each other, a lady with short hair and long clothes dressed in Chinese style had been standing quietly beside her. Because she was dressed in black, she was not stunning and conspicuous. After we all sat down, we introduced ourselves as the teacher here. Later we found out that her surname was Ren, a senior tea master, the owner of three Bama Tea chain stores, and also engaged in the clothing business. Specializing in tea ceremony, flower arrangement and incense ceremony.
The speaking speed is neither urgent nor slow, the volume is not loud, the intonation is not fluctuating, the movements are not windy, and the smile is not toothy, which makes people feel calm after listening. When the tea master's wrist moves, the movements are smooth and flowing, just like playing a piano. The next floral arrangement consisted of two flowers, one dead tree, and a few remaining leaves. They were pruned and manipulated in her hands, and a few strokes turned into works of art, as if they were painting. When introducing her collection of tea wares, she talked about the glory of the light of the East Lake, the opening of the Ru kiln, and the delicacy of the blue and white flowers, and her pride was lovely. When interviewed by our reporter Zheng, when he talked about the transition from selling tea to tea ceremony training, his love was beyond words. Especially the serious look on his eyebrows when he said, "I can concentrate on explaining even if there is only one student" is the most touching.
Businessmen value profits first, but after working hard for a long time, they become less aggressive and do not rush for quick success. They turn their business into a career and pursue realm and long-term. "Brewed into tea" is not a big pattern.
? A tea cup in the store with the words "Sansheng is lucky to meet you" was borrowed. Meeting you for the first time, meeting Bama Tea School, and meeting tea ceremony and flower arrangement is undoubtedly a small blessing for us students.
