Chapter 213
It was already late at night after leaving the tea house. Today I returned with a full load. The material can cut at least three videos. Ding Xu was very satisfied.
"Are you interested in tea ceremony?" Xiaoya tentatively said on the way back: "One period is very famous."
Ding Xu nodded, he was idle, and although he was unwilling to give up, many of the cultures that originated in China were promoted by the Japanese?
Especially the tea ceremony!
The next day, I came to the flower hall again, where there was a famous tea ceremony exhibition hall. Before the beginning, Ding Xu Zu Chuan said, "Brothers, can we be more elegant today?"
"The tea ceremony in the island country is very famous. It pays attention to one period and one period. To put it bluntly, it is a sense of ritual. Through complex processes, the heart gradually calms down."
"Today, Brother Xu will take you to explore what is a real Japanese tea ceremony!"
When I entered the tea ceremony department, a female tea master in a simple kimono and elegant manner immediately came forward politely. I heard that it was from the Chinese media who wanted to interview the tea ceremony and received it warmly.
After a simple communication, Xiaoya led everyone to the tea room. Next to her, she whispered: "Before the regular tea ceremony process enters the tea room, you must pass through a small natural landscape area, such as a garden or bamboo trail."
"This is to make tea lovers calm down before entering the tea room, eliminate all distracting thoughts in the world, and completely integrate their body and mind into nature."
Ding Xu nodded, he was really pretending. He didn’t even have the qualifications to drink tea if he didn’t have a few acres of land at home?
Two cameras followed the tea artist closely, and saw her filling water with a long-handled scoop in a water tank outside the tea room door, slowly washing her hands, and then slowly putting the water into her mouth to rinse her mouth, with the purpose of washing the mortal dust inside and outside the body.
Then take out a clean handkerchief, put it in the front bra, then take a small folding fan, insert it on the belt behind you, calm down before entering the tea room.
"See?"
"Does the ancients feel like burning incense, bathing and changing clothes?"
"A ritual sense is actually quite useful. A powerful operation can at least increase your awe, right?"
"Some things you really can't be careless when you do!"
Ding Xu took the opportunity to talk to the camera a few times, and the tea ceremony started later, probably couldn't say a word.
"So small!" Xiao Sakura looked at the tea room that was no more than ten square meters. The two cameras, the boss and Xiaoya, the translator, couldn't squeeze out the others?
Ding Xu shook his head secretly, saying that there was no way. The tea room area was generally placed on four and a half stacks of tatami mats. What he wanted was small and elegant, and the structure was compact, so that the host and the guest could have a heart-to-heart talk.
What's more, there are a lot of miscellaneous tools in front of you, such as bed rooms, guest rooms, fronts, stoves, etc., and there are also niches, floor stoves and various wooden windows around it. The water house on the right is provided for utensils for cooking, tea making and cleaning utensils.
It’s good that four people can sit down!
Fat Tiger Lao Zhang can only stand outside the door when he fixed the camera seat. The tea ceremony master knelt at the movable grid door to welcome guests. As a regular guest, he must sit on the left and start with his hands, and the others sit down one by one.
Can you only show up with five beauties and taste tea?
How many otaku come to see long legs!
Looking around, an ancient painting was hung in the center, and a Longquan celadon vase was placed underneath, and a plum blossom was inserted inside, which was simple and elegant.
I heard that the ancient paintings used for decoration of superior people must be real antiques?
The tea ceremony master stood up, went to the water house to get the wind stove, tea kettle, water filling, white charcoal and other utensils, knelt on the tatami to make a fire and boil water, and took a little incense from the incense box to ignite it.
Everyone sat upright, and they felt a sense of silence when they were immersed in the scene. The tea ceremony master stretched out his slender hands and began to prepare the tea table. He cleaned the tea bowl and tea litter with warm water and placed it in the corresponding position.
Meticulously pour the extremely fine matcha into a white tea cup, stir it gently with a tea sip to blend the matcha with water, which is called a paste.
Continue to add water, order tea soup, hold the tea bowl with both hands, taste or serve matcha to the guests.
Ding Xu took the tea and looked at the complex process. Whether it was tea ceremony or incense, he had to pursue a sense of ritual, as if only rigorous and rigid can highlight the dignity and grandeur.
I smelled matcha and thought it was just a common green tea powder or tea crushing substance. Today I found out that it was a super fine powder made from fine raw materials for tea, which was made through multiple processes such as steaming, cooling, dehydration, compound drying, and combination crushing?
Follow Xiaoya's instructions, hold the bowl with his left palm and hold the edge of the bowl with his five fingers with his right hand. After kneeling down, he raised the tea bowl and sipped it. He frowned. It was very bitter and far less delicious than Longjing.
Then the tea ceremony master actually asked to continue to pass down?
"Did you see the tools in front of Brother Xu?"
"Put the plate, furnace, blast furnace, cauldron, cover, water finger, handle, water sap, water sap, water sap, jujube, tea in, official cover, tea ladle, tea litter, tea bowl, tea towel, silk gauze, tea refreshment, zi chopsticks, shed, ladle stand, decorate the fire chopsticks, cauldron, cut the shed, felt, stand the ritual table, and stand the umbrella."
"Good, just remembering these things for less than two or three years!"
While the tea ceremony master went out to add water, Ding Xu quickly said to the camera: "The island people pretend to be good at the tea room. During the breeze stove, the owner has to go to the water house to be busy. At this time, the guests can freely walk in the garden in front of the tea room."
"Or see what antiques from the dynasty they use."
"The Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties were the least valuable in the Qing dynasties. I don't know how many ancient goods were flowing into the island countries. Porcelain is not an official kiln calligraphy and painting or a big name, and there is no trust in the qualification for ordinary auctions?"
"The Ming Dynasty was just a pioneering player. The people in the islands don't like fancy things. The most valuable thing is solid colors, such as Longquan celadon or Dingyao white porcelain."
"Even if you chat, you can't just say it casually. In authentic tea ceremony, you will never be allowed to talk about secular topics such as money politics, let alone business. It is mostly about nature."
“What a great weather today!”
"The flowers in your garden are so beautiful!"
"Where did you buy bamboo?"
"We must pretend to be pure and have few desires. Everyone is a master and hermit who sees through the world to be able to be qualified."
After more than an hour of tossing, Sakura was the first to be unable to stand it and said, "My legs are numb!"
"Do you want to be so tired if you drink some tea?"
"Oh, I really don't understand the daily life of the best."
"Do you think it's delicious?"
“Good”
"That's a big deal!"
“Bitty and astringent!”
"That's right, I don't even drink it if I treat it for free!"
Ding Xu was also drunk when he heard all the complaints from the four major vases. Do you have any wisdom?
Is it good for you to understand the reason why life is all hard!
Forget it, to be fair, I can't stand this rule. I watched dozens of props operate as fierce as a tiger in one go, and finally only had a cup of tea?
Do you still have to take turns to taste it?
Is it nauseating or not?
After leaving the tea duct, I finally felt relieved and said to the camera: "What do you think of me?"
"If you like it, please deduct one."
"If you feel it's troublesome, please deduct two"
"Anyway, Brother Xu feels that it is a bit too formal. Drinking tea itself is indeed a good way to cultivate one's own character, but is it right to pay attention to excessive or insufficient things?"
"But this kind of thing must be done by rich and rich people. Those who don't have a few acres of land or gardens at home are not even qualified to take the first step."
"As for the decoration of antique vases and paintings in the Ming and Qing Dynasties?"
"Hehehe!"
