Ji Han and Ji Xiang were dumbfounded when they heard that …
Uncle Iron was experienced. Although he had never gone out, he understood what Fangzheng meant. Regardless of whether what Fangzheng said was true or not, he had already given them a way out. If he were to be any more polite, it wouldn't appear as generous.
Hence, Uncle Iron smiled and said, "Alright, I'll take it."
Ji Han and Ji Xiang were overjoyed when they heard that. They took the cell phone and thanked him immediately.
Fangzheng and Uncle Iron chuckled. Fangzheng took a sip of tea, and at that instant, his brows pricked up!
The Ancient Tea Tree was a little bitter, but it was different from the bitterness of ordinary tea leaves. There was a tinge of astringency in the bitterness, but the astringency dissipated extremely quickly. If not for Fangzheng's extremely sensitive senses, he wouldn't have been able to capture the astringency. Just as Fangzheng frowned and felt that the bitter tea wasn't that tasty, a sweetness spread out from his throat!
"Sweetness?" Fangzheng asked subconsciously.
Uncle Iron nodded and said, "The most important characteristic of Ancient Tea Tree is its bitterness. It dissipates quickly, and after swallowing it, there will be a sweetness. A mouthful of sweetness is like a thirsty person drinking water. It's very comfortable. If you savor it carefully, there will be a pleasant surprise. "
When Fangzheng heard that, he carefully savored the taste of the tea. Only then did he realize that not only was it sweet, but it also had the fragrance of a flower! This surprised and delighted Fangzheng as he looked at Uncle Iron.
Uncle Iron also looked at Fangzheng in surprise and asked, "You've tasted it?"
Fangzheng nodded. "Floral fragrance."
Uncle Iron smiled and said, "I never expected you to be an expert at tasting tea. Ordinary people won't be able to taste the floral fragrance when swallowing it."
Fangzheng sighed. "I never expected this tea to have floral fragrance. What a surprise."
"It's not strange for an old tree to be tainted with floral fragrance," Uncle Iron said.
At that moment, a granny came over and said something to Uncle Iron. Uncle Iron laughed out loud and said, "Alright, alright, alright … I'll go now."
With that said, Uncle Iron gave Fangzheng a meaningful look before patting his butt and leaving.
Fangzheng's hair stood on end from Uncle Iron's stare. He had a nagging feeling that he was going to be unlucky.
As expected, as soon as Uncle Iron left, the aunties and grandmothers who had been eyeing him covetously and were so tired that their eyes were about to close closed swarmed over. All of them looked at Fangzheng strangely, but when they looked at each other, it was as though sparks would explode.
Fangzheng immediately had an ominous feeling. When he saw the pairs of bright eyes watching from a distance, Fangzheng's heart palpitated even more.
He felt as if Tang Seng had mistakenly entered the Kingdom of Women …
Sure enough, a granny came over and said, "Ah Feng, how old are you this year? Do you have a wife? "
Fangzheng instantly understood what she meant when she heard that. She was prepared to pull the red string.
Seeing Fangzheng turn cold, Ji Han whispered into Fangzheng's ear, "Brother Chang, she has taken a liking to you! The girls of our Tuyao Fort won't easily take a fancy to outsiders, and the fort doesn't even agree to intermarriage with other ethnic groups. But you're different. You know how to play the lusheng, dance the lusheng dance, and you're young and rich. Hehe … "
Fangzheng rolled his eyes at the kid. He was truly a mischievous kid!
Fangzheng wanted to lie and say that he was married, but he was afraid that if he were to say something like that, he would scare the women and grandfathers. It would be a sin if he got sick from fright.
Fangzheng shook his head again.
This shake of his head seemed to light a fuse. With a bang, everyone came over.
The owner's granny said, "It's good that you're not married. I have a girl at home who's eighteen years old. She's as beautiful as a flower …"
"Don't listen to her. My girl is the beautiful one."
"My granddaughter is the flower of Tuyao Fort."
"Forget it. She was fine ten years ago, but now, she's almost gone. My girl is the one who's beautiful. Most importantly, she dances well. "
"Yes, she's dancing with bow-legs."
"What did you say?"
"What do you think I said?"
"Don't listen to his nonsense. I'll bring you to see my daughter."
"See my daughter!"
…
Fangzheng felt that these grannies and aunties were extremely strong. Although he was fine, the buttons on his clothes were torn off! How was this marrying off his daughter? They were clearly going to execute her on the spot!
At that moment, Ji Han saw that Fangzheng was unwilling. Her eyes darted around as she shouted, "Brother Chang, aren't you married? I even saw Sister-in-law the last time. "
Everyone looked at Fangzheng when they heard that.
Fangzheng cleared his throat. It was unknown if he had agreed or not.
However, the others felt that Fangzheng had admitted to it. Therefore, the originally popular Fangzheng was immediately forgotten. However, someone still said indignantly, "If you get a divorce, remember to look for me."
It made Fangzheng look embarrassed …
When Ji Han saw this, he held his stomach and laughed. Ji Xiang carefully helped Fangzheng tidy up his messy clothes. Only then did the three of them leave the bonfire and slowly walk towards Ji Han's house.
Fangzheng asked in puzzlement, "I see that there are some youths in your village. Why are they all coming to my place?"
Ji Han shook his head and said, "The villagers typically don't marry outsiders, but you're different. You know how to dance the lusheng dance. Everyone thinks that you're a good person, so they'll introduce their daughters to you. As for the people in the village, in their words, all the capable young men have left, and the rest are useless. Who would be willing to marry their daughter to a useless person?
With that said, Ji Han paused and said, "However, if the village really doesn't have them, it'll be tough. What if a wild boar comes? What if an elephant comes? There are also other animals. Those things are ferocious. "
Ji Xiang said, "Brother Ah Kui said that it's not that he doesn't dare to go out, but that he doesn't want to leave his parents alone at home. He feels that that's too unfilial … "
Fangzheng said, "Has no one thought of starting a business in the village?"
"Brother Changfeng, stop joking. In our village, it's already difficult for anyone to go out. What else can we do? It's already very good that the country has given us a call … "Ji Xiang said.
Fangzheng asked, "Ji Han, how do you transport the things in your stronghold to be sold?"
Ji Han subconsciously replied, "Of course we carry them out and sell them. Who would walk in to collect them on such a crappy road?"
Ji Han's answer was very natural, but there was also a hint of helplessness in it.
Fangzheng said, "Carry them out? How many of them can be carried out on such a road? "
"I can't carry much out. They're usually vegetables, game, and the like. They're sold at the market. The Ancient Tea Tree is still alright. There are people outside the mountain collecting them, but the rest have to be sold by themselves. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that the Ancient Tea Tree was so valuable. Those vampires only gave us twenty yuan per kilogram when they came to collect them! That's too much! I won't sell them in the future, "Ji Xiang replied.
Fangzheng said, "Apart from these things, does your stronghold sell anything else?"
