Chapter 773: Chapter 773: They Don’t Deserve to Drink Good Tea Chapter 773: Chapter 773: They Don’t Deserve to Drink Good Tea The mule carriage entered the yard, and Shu Yu brought out a few packages from inside.
The old lady just came to greet them and frowned upon seeing the paper packages in her hands, “What did you buy these for?”
“Didn’t we want to send the local specialties back to our hometown? This tea is very famous in Linzhang Prefecture, how can it be omitted?” Holding the paper packages, Shu Yu walked into the living room, set the items on the table, and piled them up with the specialties that the old lady and the others had purchased during the daytime.
However, the old lady’s face did not show agreement, “This tea is so expensive, isn’t it a waste to give it to Eldest Uncle and Third Uncle? They are just country bumpkins, what do they know about tea, they should be content with drinking some cheap tea dregs.”
In Linzhang Prefecture, there is an abundance of fruit trees, so the specialties that the old lady and the others usually buy are candied fruits and dried fruits, along with some wild mushrooms and mountain produce that were not available in Jiangyuan County.
These items can be stored for a longer period, and they are relatively common and not expensive.
But Shu Yu is right, the most famous product from Linzhang Prefecture is the kind of tea she is holding. However, in addition to being delicious, the tea is also very expensive, only wealthy families can afford it.
For her two sons, even if she gave it to them, they wouldn’t be able to appreciate its quality, a waste of money.
Therefore, the old lady had never even considered buying this, but she didn’t know that Yu had bought it.
Turning around, Shu Yu held the old lady’s arm and smiled, “Grandmother, who speaks about their own sons like this?”
She knew what the old lady was like and didn’t try to persuade her to accept it, but simply said, “I didn’t buy the tea only for Eldest Uncle and Third Uncle. The price of this tea in Linzhang Prefecture compared to Dongan Province is like night and day, the difference is too huge. Since we can buy it cheaper here, of course, we should buy more, taking advantage of this opportunity to give as gifts. I plan to give some to Lord Xiang, some to Doctor Xu, and Miss Ding, they have all helped us in Jiangyuan County and appreciate good tea, it’s appropriate to give it to them, right?”
The old lady nodded when she heard it was for gifts for Lord Xiang and the others, “That’s true.”
“So, if we’re giving it to outsiders, shouldn’t we also give some to our family? If Third Uncle learns we did not send any to him, he will surely make a fuss. Even if Eldest Uncle, Third Uncle, and Fourth Aunt can’t appreciate good tea, it can still be used to entertain guests and make a good impression.”
The old lady thought about it, knowing that Boss would definitely not be willing to use such good tea to entertain guests in the village, but Daniu was acting as a shopkeeper in the store; it would be useful there.
And then there was Sanzhu, who had recently gotten a raise; it meant the boss must value him highly. It would be appropriate for him to entertain the boss with it.
As for Fourth Brother, his son-in-law was now part of the Office, which could come in handy when dealing with colleagues.
With this in mind, the old lady agreed, “Alright then, just don’t give too much.”
“I know, I know.” Shu Yu grinned and supported the old lady as they walked to the kitchen, where Meng Yunzheng and Zhao Xi were, and indeed many exquisite dishes were laid out on the table.
Speaking of which, Shu Yu’s visits to Heichang County several times had yet to include tasting the local specialty dishes.
Madam Ruan called them to sit down, “Come on, let’s have dinner, you must be starving at this late hour.”
The original table at the Lu family was quite small, but fortunately, Madam Ruan and Daya had several tables at their stall. With a bit of arranging, they could make a large enough table for the entire family to sit at.
Shu Yu sat opposite Meng Yunzheng, and with a slight smile and a press of her lips, he knew that her trip had gone very well.
Happy for the rare occasion, he had also bought two pitchers of wine.
