Chapter 182 Tianyin Tea
Before he reached the door, the sound of quarreling had already reached Qi Zhou's ears.
Approach quickly.
Through the crack in the door, she saw a white-haired old man with a goatee, with one hand behind his back and pointing at Weng Changli in a rage.
"Don't you think that just because you're the president, we have to listen to you in everything!?"
"You haven't even seen it, why don't you agree with my decision!" This is the voice of Grandpa Weng.
"Alright, alright, it's already happened so stop arguing. She's just a little girl. If she doesn't have the ability in the final tomorrow, she will be eliminated. Why are you so excited?
"And old man, you are also wrong in this matter. You should have asked for our opinions before making such a decision. Besides, if you do this, won't others think that the girl you found got it through the backdoor? How will they look at her then?"
Another old man, wearing a Zhongshan suit and holding a bamboo coil in his hands, tried to persuade him kindly.
Qi Zhou put on an expression as if he was enjoying the taste of melon and "knocked on the door".
Weng Changli glanced at the door and said, "Come in."
The three of them simultaneously picked up their teacups to moisten their throats and take a breath.
"Grandpa Weng."
Hearing this voice, Weng Changli quickly put down his teacup and greeted him before he even finished his tea.
"Qizhou, come and sit down."
Qi Zhou smiled and sat over, placing the tea he brought on the table.
The other two old men had been watching her every move since she entered the door.
This temperament is quite good.
It made their eyes light up.
"Let me introduce her to you. She is the girl Qizhou I mentioned. She is also the granddaughter of the old man from the Xing family."
After saying that, Weng Changli pointed at the two people standing next to him and introduced them: "The one with the goatee is Zhao Yingqing, the runner-up of my tea art competition. The one next to him wearing a Zhongshan suit is Zhu Zhe, the third place winner. They are both vice presidents of the Tea Ceremony Association."
Qi Zhou greeted politely.
"Hello, Grandpa Zhao, Grandpa Zhu."
Zhu Zhe had a kind look in his eyes and said with a smile, "Okay."
Zhao Yingqing stroked his beard, snorted, and turned his head away.
This little old guy is quite cute.
Qi Zhou thought.
Weng Changli didn't indulge him. "Don't bother with him. He's just an old antique." Seeing the tea leaves on the table, he changed the subject. "By the way, what are you holding?"
Qi Zhou stepped forward and opened it for them to see.
"I brought you a can of tea."
"This is……"
Weng Changli took a look but didn't recognize him.
He went to find his reading glasses and put them on. He picked up a few strands of tea and sniffed them. His old eyes turned from curiosity to surprise: "Is this Tianyin tea?"
"What!?" Zhao Yingqing asked in surprise. After he came to his senses, he coughed twice to cover up.
Zhu Zhe stopped spinning the bamboo and came forward, "Little girl, where did you get this?"
"An older brother gave it to me."
Zhu Zhe asked, "Does he still have it? Will he sell it?"
Qi Zhou shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.
Zhao Yingqing's head was still tilted, but the glances he gave at Tianyincha from time to time were extremely adorable.
After a few casual chats, Qi Zhou began his performance.
In the quaint tea room, three big names in the tea industry sat around, their eyes expressing appreciation, scrutiny, observation and expectation.
Qi Zhou's movements were as light as a feather, and his fingers nimbly turned the teacup like a dancing butterfly.
When serving tea.
The heavenly sound fell like drizzle, landing accurately into the cup.
When filling water.
The water flows gently, like a clear spring in a mountain stream, neither fast nor slow.
As she made highly entertaining movements, the aroma of tea gradually filled the air.
Zhao Yingqing, who originally had a dissatisfaction with her, also showed a hint of surprise on his face.
She served the brewed tea to the three elderly people one by one for them to taste.
The tea soup was clear and bright, and its color was attractive, attracting the three people to start tasting it immediately.
Take a sip.
The three of them were suddenly amazed.
Zhu Zhe hid the strange emotions in his eyes and commented: "This tea has a pure aroma and a mellow taste. Your tea art is superb and incomparable. It is really rare."
Weng Changli nodded proudly and agreed: "The movements are graceful and smooth, and the understanding of tea is very profound. The young people are really formidable."
Zhao Yingqing said nothing.
But the empty teacup seemed to have made his attitude clear, and he no longer said anything about his disagreement with Qi Zhou's participation in the finals.
Qi Zhou accepted the compliment with a smile.
The long-awaited day has arrived.
Tea Art Competition Finals Live Broadcast——
The audience was whispering to each other, discussing their favorite contestants, but no one noticed Qi Zhou in the corner.
The competition gongs and drums sounded, and the contestants took the stage one by one.
Qi Zhou was the last one to appear.
She was wearing a plain tea dress, like a fairy from ancient times.
The sleeves of the clothes flutter.
[Where did this person come from? She wasn't even in yesterday's game. ]
[Hey, isn't this Qi Zhou? What is she doing here? ]
[Why would you participate in a tea art competition instead of being a celebrity? ]
[Anyone is qualified to participate, but rich people are different. 】
[I can actually see such a pretty lady in a tea art competition. I support her! ]
[Isn't this to increase your popularity or something? 】
[She wasn't there before, but she suddenly showed up in the finals. If she's not related to someone, then what is she? ]
A person named Guozhou happened to be watching this live broadcast and immediately went to the group to call people.
This brought another wave of popularity to Qi Zhou.
Ji Xuhe also turned on the live broadcast at Shi Zhe's reminder.
When seeing the big words "Ji Xuhe V entered the live broadcast room", the barrage of comments was boiling.
CP fans came here just by smelling the scent!
The audience and familiar contestants were also talking about it, and seemed dissatisfied with the person who suddenly appeared.
Words like "connections", "backdoor", and "unfair".
All of it fell into Qi Zhou's ears.
But her expression did not change, remaining as cold and aloof as usual.
There are four main contents in the tea art competition.
They are - tea art skills, tea culture knowledge, etiquette and literacy, and tea quality, among which there are some sub-projects.
Each person performs in turn.
Seven judges gave scores on the spot, and the one with the highest score became the champion.
The atmosphere at the competition was tense and heated. Qi Zhou stood on the side of the stage, looking calmly at the other contestants on the field.
at this time.
She felt a slightly scrutinizing gaze.
Look up.
A quiet woman was staring at her.
Qi Zhou was not unhappy, but his eyes brightened.
This young lady is very beautiful and has a temperament that matches the guqin.
System: [She is Zhu Zhe’s granddaughter, her name is Zhu Die, she is 23 years old, and Zhu Zhe has high expectations for her.]
[I see. ]
Soon it was Zhu Die's turn to perform. Qi Zhou watched and nodded secretly.
He secretly sighed, "Young people are really formidable."
The system wanted to roll its eyes: [In terms of age, you are the young one.]
The game was in full swing and soon it was Qi Zhou's turn.
She was in no hurry.
His steps were light and his clothes did not flutter.
[Wow, it’s really Zhou Zhou. She also knows tea? ]
[She probably learned it after being adopted as a daughter by the Xing family, otherwise she wouldn't have had the time to learn it before.]
[Are you a newbie? Tea culture is not something you can learn in a short time. ]
[Oh, don't worry about whether she can do it or not, just watch it for pleasure. ]
【It is indeed pleasing to the eye. 】
[She came to participate in the competition because of the Xing family. ]
The above comments were all transmitted to Qi Zhou's ears by the system.
Qi Zhou thought about it.
This seems to be correct.
She did rely on the Xing family's connections.
