In the living room, Old Master Zhou and Old Master Qi chatted and laughed together. Old Master Zhou and Old Master Qi had a good relationship to begin with, and after Zhenbai’s wife saved his wife’s life with the spirit rice, Old Master Zhou was even more grateful to the Qi family and Zhenbai’s wife.

The closer Bocheng and Zhenbai got, the closer Old Master Zhou and the Qi family became.

Speaking of which, he had long wanted to visit the Qi family, but he had been worried about his wife’s health and had been looking after her recently. After confirming that her health had really improved because of the spirit rice, they went to the hospital several times for a checkup and confirmed that his wife had recovered from stomach cancer. Only then did he take the opportunity to visit the Qi family.

The two old men were friends, so when they met, they didn’t stand on ceremony with each other.

Without waiting for Old Master Zhou to speak, the Qi family patriarch suddenly thought of something and said, “Old Zhou, you came at the right time. My granddaughter-in-law specially brought me a pouch of tea leaves when she came to see me. Do you want to try them?”

The old man’s tone was a little boastful; he wanted to show off how good his grandson’s taste was and how sensible and filial his granddaughter-in-law was.

Old Master Qi was very satisfied with his granddaughter-in-law and also wanted others to know how good she was.

For one moment, Old Master Zhou was unaware of Old Qi’s goal, and nodded in agreement. “Okay!”

Hearing Old Master Zhou’s reply, the Qi family patriarch immediately had the housekeeper boil a pot of tea.

Not long after, the housekeeper placed the tea on the table.

In fact, when the housekeeper had been making the tea, the light fragrance had wafted over from the kitchen to the living room, and the two men couldn’t help but turn their heads. If not for the fact that he had a guest, the Qi family patriarch would have gone to the kitchen himself to take a look.

Old Master Zhou was also attracted by the fragrance of the tea, and his eyes narrowed.

The Qi family patriarch was also a bit surprised. When he had accepted the tea leaves from his granddaughter-in-law earlier, he had known that this tea wasn’t anything expensive – what kind of tea hadn’t he drunk before?

So, when he had accepted the tea leaves just now, he really hadn’t thought about it. He subconsciously brought up Zhenbai’s wife and bragged, “This tea is from Zhenbai’s wife. I wonder where this child found such fragrant tea. How thoughtful of her. No, this smell is too fragrant. I have to try it first!”

When Old Master Zhou heard the words “Zhenbai’s wife,” his eyes lit up. For some reason, he suddenly thought of the spirit rice which this child had given to his wife, which had cured her terminal illness. His eyes couldn’t help but light up when they fell on the tea. The tea leaves which Zhenbai’s wife gave to Old Qi definitely wouldn’t be ordinary. Old Master Zhou’s mind whirled. There was no need to taste the tea – it absolutely couldn’t be bad at all.

His eyes flashed shrewdly, and he immediately stopped Old Qi from tasting it. He hurriedly said, “Old Qi, let the tea cool down first. It’s too hot and still steaming.”

Old Master Qi didn’t think much of it and agreed. The more he smelled the tea, the more fragrant it was. Where on earth did Zhenbai’s wife buy such good tea?

While Old Master Qi was deep in thought, he heard Old Master Zhou say, “Old Qi, we’ve been friends all these years, right? From the fragrance of this tea, I feel that it definitely won’t taste bad. It’s not any worse than those famous tea brands, and I quite like the fragrance. Can you share some of these tea leaves from Zhenbai’s wife with me, and let me take some back to try?”

Old Master Zhou was very good at persuading people. Without waiting for Old Master Qi to refuse, his mouth turned very sweet, which was rare for him. He praised Zhenbai and his wife, and also praised Old Qi for being wise and having a good eye; any other family without such foresight would have fallen apart.

Old Master Qi’s face flushed red with emotion.

If it were anyone else, this might not have worked, but Old Zhou had always had a tough personality since young, and had never sucked up to anyone. So, Old Master Qi was caught off guard for a moment and really lost his wits. His whole body felt light, as if he were stepping on cotton, and he immediately relented. “Okay, but my granddaughter-in-law personally bought this for me. I won’t give you half, but I’ll give you a third!”

Old Master Zhou immediately replied, “Okay!”

The tea cooled down after a while, but the fragrance didn’t dissipate. At that moment, not to mention Old Master Qi, even Old Master Zhou couldn’t wait any longer. He picked up the cup and took a sip.

As soon as he took his first sip, he was immediately assailed by the strong but not greasy fragrance. It was as if Old Master Zhou’s soul had been struck, and his eyes were filled with amazement. It could be said that the taste of this tea definitely wasn’t inferior to those top-grade teas, and was even better.

Old Master Zhou was in a good mood. This tea tasted hundreds of times better than he had imagined. Old Master Zhou originally had something to say, but now, he only cared about drinking the tea and couldn’t be bothered to speak at all. He immediately drank the tea in one gulp, and it wasn’t long before a faint warm current appeared in his body, making him feel especially comfortable.

At that moment, Old Master Zhou was certain that these tea leaves were definitely different from spirit rice. Afraid that Old Qi would be stingy and not give him the good stuff, he hurriedly poured out one-third of the tea leaves which Old Qi had promised him. He didn’t have anything to put them in, and actually directly poured them into his pocket. He also picked up the teapot and poured himself cup after cup of tea.

This series of actions simply stupefied the Qi family patriarch. His face was blank and he stuttered, “Old… Zhou, you…” Are you okay?

When Old Master Qi tasted the tea which Zhenbai’s wife had brought, his eyes flashed with amazement. By the time he finally understood the reason for Old Zhou’s exaggerated actions, it was too late.

This tea tasted especially good. Like Old Master Zhou, Old Master Qi kept drinking until he couldn’t drink anymore.

Taking advantage of the moment, Old Master Zhou got up and bade him farewell. He also told Old Master Qi to tell Zhenbai and Zhenbai’s wife to come and see him when they were free; Old Master Zhou and his wife were their godparents, after all. Old Master Zhou also told Old Master Qi that his wife had completely recovered from her terminal stomach cancer. He emphasized repeatedly, “Old Qi, don’t forget to mention this to Zhenbai and his wife!”
