Chapter 1151 - 1148: Fox Immortal Palace

"Huh? There's a can of Ju Duozai, not bad, this flavored Dancong is the best for making milk tea."

"Take the Stone Milk Rock Tea over there too, this stuff is famous and has a low yield..."

Ansheng wandered around the tea cabinet, opened one sealed tea can after another, and finally, picked two interesting ones.

One was the 'Ju Duozai' from the Dancong family, which does not belong to the top ten Dancong fragrance types, can't be considered a mainstream product, but its aroma is exceptionally bright, with a hint of almond fragrance when tasted.

Its price is not particularly outrageous, but Ansheng in his previous life discovered that 'Ju Duozai' makes milk tea particularly fragrant and sweet.

The bright aroma perfectly compensates for the lack of scent when sniffing the milk tea and the greasiness when it enters the mouth.

Tasting is a joint action of olfaction and taste, and everyone who tasted Ju Duozai milk tea in the previous life said it was good.

As for the Stone Milk Rock Tea, it belongs to a very ancient type, considered a noble leftover, which is still quite good just from a taste perspective.

But it grows on steep slopes, which is very unfavorable for commercial promotion, so its yield is pitifully low.

As soon as this tea is brewed, Ansheng can pull out a copy of , rest it on a customer's shoulder, and start telling stories with a proud face.

With a selling price of 3,800, after finishing , it can be marked up by 2,000 to sell to certain people.

Don't ask if the tea is good, I just ask you, was the history story I just told good?

It carries a scholarly elegance when drunk.

"Alright, is there anything else to take?"

Ah Qing sealed the tea leaves selected by Xiaolan from the tea cabinet, took a photo, sent it to her dad via WeChat, and then asked curiously.

"Then? Let's go downstairs to buy a carton of sweet milk and the bottled water in the photo..."

To brew milk tea with Ju Duozai, milk is naturally needed, and rock tea is for serious drinking. All rock teas, including Dancong, are extremely picky about the water quality. To truly brew the rock tea's flavor and essence, one must choose the water source.

Under Ansheng's guidance, they spent two hours preparing everything.

Ah Qing has absolute trust in the little fox's selection, so after buying the stuff, she drove home.

Just as she returned to the ancestral home, Yu Zhenghong looked at Ah Qing with a pitiful face, staring at the bag in her hand.

"Ah Qing..."

"Is there a pack of Stone Milk Rock Tea in the bag?" Yu Zhenghong looked at Ah Qing with an expectant expression.

Sending the Stone Milk Rock Tea to Lin Ying, Yu Zhenghong had no objections at all. Even if Ah Qing's grades are poor, in the future, there will always be a grey industry suitable for Ah Qing to join.

Old Deng's question was just to ask if his precious daughter had cleaned him out.

"I took two portions, one for Sister Lin and another for the village head." Ah Qing reported her achievements to her dad.

"Oh..." Yu Zhenghong nodded gently, silently remembering in his heart to go to the village head's house to mooch some tea.

"....The homework assigned is still too little, after the New Year, we must assign Old Deng more homework, otherwise, I would be embarrassed to take his money." Ansheng looked at Yu Zhenghong, muttering to himself, and complained in his heart.

It was noon.

After having a simple lunch, there was nothing special to handle in the afternoon, just filling in the gaps, checking if there was anything needed at home, and going to the village to set off firecrackers with the kids.

At four-thirty in the afternoon, Yu Zhenghong gathered the whole family to go to the village's ancestral hall for worship.

After offering incense and burning paper to the Chen clan's ancestors, they returned home to offer incense and burn paper to their family ancestors, and after worshiping Mazu and Master Fuli, they started dinner.

The dinner was particularly lavish that night.

Having drunk a little, Yu Zhenghong took out his phone to video call his second uncle in the Imperial Capital via WeChat, smiling and introducing the dishes, especially the ginger and scallion crab.

Although his second uncle's taste is rather light, he does like the ginger and scallion stir-fried crab.

"During the big New Year, don't force me to curse..." The second uncle, with a dark face, angrily rebuked his brother's inhumane behavior.

"What are you talking about cursing, we're having a reunion dinner..." Yu Zhenghong teased with a smiling face, with no mediation needed for family conflicts, everyone was chatting happily.

If there's any real conflict, it's probably that Chen Peipei invited Master Fuli, winning three hundred from Yu Jingwen?

"Cousin....."

Just after dinner, the little cousin sneaked over sneakily, winking at Ah Qing:

"Wishing cousin to become more youthful and beautiful and to live forever....."

"Thank you, but still no red envelope~" Ah Qing patted her cousin's shoulder with an old-fashioned demeanor.

In Changxi Town r, red envelopes are quite flexible, married early and you give early, if you marry late, after graduation and work you need to give kids red envelopes.

Ah Qing falls in neither category, there are still years of graduate study to pursue in the future.

"Wow!" The little cousin's mouth pouted, "deng deng deng," he went back to his mother's arms, secretly glancing at the elder cousin with disappointment, then asked his mom: "Mom! Cousin is still a single dog this year..."

"....Ah haha." Yu Jingwen covered the little kid's mouth, gestured at Ah Qing, handed over a pre-prepared red envelope, and said:

"In the new year, study hard, and as for marriage, find someone suitable."

"I will work hard, I will work hard....."

Ah Qing smiled awkwardly. In Xia Dong, the custom is to encourage early marriage, and while you might not marry during college, you should at least start dating.

However.

Yu Zhenghong and Chen Peipei are not in a hurry. The two elders are already financially constrained, and they fear being drained financially by a son-in-law.

Sitting at home for a while, Ah Qing checked the time, informed the family, and picked up the keys to go out.

"So pitiful, my Qing....."

Perched on Ah Qing's shoulder, Ansheng wore a mischievous expression, teasing Ah Qing.

Ah Qing felt the red envelope was quite a burden, with family elders mainly nagging about studies and marriage matters.

"Hey... I have a red envelope. Tonight, whether we have shrimp and crab porridge or plain porridge depends entirely on my decision." Sitting in the car, Ah Qing, proud as ever, flaunted the red envelope she received at Ansheng.

Though she hasn't opened the red envelope, the amount is generally fixed each year.

Collecting from the parents here is over ten thousand; from the grandparents, another five or six thousand could be received.

"Wow! Who's the canine among us?" Ansheng widened his eyes at Ah Qing and questioned: "You're just bullying me because I can't use cash....."

"If you want a red envelope, you better transform quickly!"

Ah Qing chuckled, patting the little fox's head. She sent Sister Lin Ying a message to inquire, and shortly after, Lin Ying sent a location pin.

From the ancestral home to Fox Immortal Palace, the journey is not particularly far, just over five kilometers.

However, the route is a bit remote, going further in from the west gate of the farmer's market.

Passing by the farmer's market, Ah Qing patted the little fox and pointed out the window, saying:

"Xiaolan, on the left is the crematorium with the cemetery, guess what's on the right of the cemetery?"

Ah Qing had a mysteriously amused expression, with a bit of mischief at the corners of her mouth.

"The opposite of the cemetery, selling tombstones?" Ansheng glanced out the window and said.

"Wrong, the right is the shooting range, where they execute criminals, shoot them on the right, and burn them directly on the left"
