Chapter 779 Am I not filial enough?

The old prince's eyes widened as he looked at this exquisite tea set.

"This... this smooth porcelain, was it also bought from foreigners?"

Qiao Ran nodded: "Yes, they are all bought from foreign merchants, but I have also bought the firing recipe. In the future, we in Dayue will also be able to fire such good porcelain. And tea, I have also bought the tea planting and tea frying recipes, and the tea fried in the Devil Valley will also have this flavor in the future."

"Good! That's great! Oh, I have to say, the things in the hands of these foreigners are really good! We in Dayue are still far behind. If we in Dayue can also make such good porcelain and fry such good tea in the future, then we won't have to let the foreigners make so much money! I hope grandpa can drink the tea you fry in the future!"

"Most definitely!"

Qiao Ran smiled, cleaned the tea set skillfully, and brewed a pot of Longjing tea that she had brought with her.

The clear yellow-green tea is poured into the delicate and smooth teacup. The faint tea fragrance penetrates into the nostrils, which makes people feel refreshed.

Qiao Ran placed two cups of tea in front of the old prince and Mo Beihan respectively, and both of them couldn't wait to pick up the teacups.

Leaning close to the teacup and taking a long breath, the old prince's serious features relaxed and he smiled happily: "It smells good!"

Take another sip: "It is sweet and fragrant like orchid, subtle but not pungent. It is truly a rare and fine tea!"

"Grandpa Mo, you really know what's good! This is Qingqian tea. As the saying goes, 'before the rain is the best, before the Qingming is the treasure'. The tea picked before the Qingming is indeed a treasure."

The old prince took several sips and savored the tea carefully. He really liked the tea.

"Grandpa Mo, these two cans of pre-rain Longjing are for you. When the tea leaves in our valley come out next year, I will give you a few more cans."

"Okay, okay! The gift you gave me is very much to my liking. I heard that you came here specially to give me the blue water fish today? Oh, girls are really more considerate than boys!"

After saying this, the old prince did not forget to glare at his grandson who was grinning beside him.

Mo Beihan still smiled heartlessly, not caring at all about his grandfather's dissatisfaction with him.

Anyway, isn't such a good girl also my future daughter-in-law? Isn't it filial enough to marry such a good granddaughter-in-law for my grandfather?

The teacup that Qiao Ran brought was very small, just enough to drink a cup of tea in one sip.

The old prince sighed:

"When I was in northern Xinjiang, I drank tea that I brought from Beijing. Northern Xinjiang is a bitter place! There are basically two or three seasons of snow and cold weather in a year, and nothing can grow."

"When it's cold, I love to drink a few cups of hot tea. But when it's cold, the tea gets cold quickly, so I always drink tea from a big teapot or a big cup, which is really satisfying. It's been a long time since I've savored a cup of tea so carefully!"

"Alas, especially when we go out to suppress bandits or drive out enemies, it's so cold and snowy, and it's good to have a mouthful of hot water to drink. Unfortunately, the water bag doesn't keep warm, and the water freezes into ice. Most of the time, when I'm thirsty, I just pick up a handful of snow and chew it. It's so sour and refreshing..."

Qiao Ran imagined the far north of her previous life. In the icy and snowy weather, a sip of hot tea was more precious than an elixir.

Qiao Ran thought about it and took out a 6L large-capacity 316 stainless steel thermos cup from her cloth bag.

"Grandpa Mo, this is called a thermos cup. It can keep the temperature constant when you put hot water in it. You can use it to hold boiling water or make tea. Open the lid and pour the water in. The lid can also be used as a teacup. Pour the water into this cup and let it cool before drinking."

The old prince's eyes lit up: "This is a good thing! Did you buy this from a foreign merchant?"

He took the thermos cup, looked left and right, looked inside, and flicked the cup with his fingers, becoming even more curious:

"Is this made of iron? It's really exquisite! But why is it so thin? Can it really keep warm?"
