"River" Tea Life

Living in Sichuan is actually quite a blessing. Because of the taste that lingers on the tip of our tongue, in addition to Sichuan wine, Sichuan cuisine, and Sichuan tea. In early spring and March, when spring tea goes from the green tip to the slow bloom in boiling water, the definition of happiness may be the steaming mellow aroma.

For the nourishment of taste, we can see the influence of one side of the water and soil on the other person. For example, drinking tea is enough to show the attitude of Sichuan people to life: a little grassroots and a little exquisite, a little leisurely and a little diligent, a little calm and a little persistent. On the side of the road, in the Accord Courtyard, where there are Kawa people, there are not only rivers and lakes, but also about the taste of tea, about the secrets of tea and the attitude towards life, and life is thus tasted.

Drinking tea has become a way of life of the Sichuan people, flowing into the blood of the Sichuan people from ancient times. Beneath the appearance of a leisurely and comfortable life, a business may have been negotiated, or the purpose of emotional communication may have been achieved. Therefore, drinking tea can be classified as a kind of life, appearing in our daily life in a more elegant way. In fact, when drinking tea, Sichuan people are also tasting life, pursuing the taste of exquisite taste of life, tolerance rather than living for the sake of life, and even losing life for the sake of life.

Some professors once said that Tao characters were the most interesting words in ancient times, and as a result, they were carried forward by the Orientals, such as kendo, calligraphy, and of course, the tea ceremony. And those who abandon the precious inheritance left to us by our ancestors are mostly some unruly paths, and the most obvious example is the foot path. Therefore, the revival of the tea ceremony is both a respect for the ancients and a strong return to tradition.

In Chengdu, the provincial capital, tea houses are an important place to socialize. The three religions and nine streams all meet here. Seventy-two lines, the line of the line as a good place for the tea house as a good place for a gathering of friends, "tea friends" sit together to swing the "dragon gate array", listen to social news. The teahouse has become a mirror of social life.

"Sitting tea houses" is a special hobby of Chengdu people, so tea houses are located in all corners of urban and rural areas.

As the saying goes, Sichuan "has few sunny days on its head, but many teahouses in front of it." In the tea houses in Sichuan, people's kung fu of "sitting" has been fully exerted, so the essence of the tea house lies in a "bubble" word. The story of the tea house can be described as colorful, just as the so-called "the cup is big, the tea is long in the day and the moon", the small tea house is a big society, the guests from the south to the north, the three religions and nine streams gather here, and the sections of sorrow and joy, joy and sorrow are brewed.

Sichuan Tea House differs from tea houses in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places in its unique "social function". Sichuan is located in the basin, surrounded by mountains, traffic is blocked, people need a platform for information exchange. Therefore, in Sichuan, the first function of the tea house is to exchange information, that is, the "pendulum dragon gate array".

Today, there are still performances in the teahouse that come purely from folk artists. In fact, many of The folk arts in Sichuan originated in tea houses at the earliest, and it can be said that most of the folk arts in Sichuan are brewed with tea. Therefore, the tea house has made an extremely important contribution to enriching the culture and art of Bashu.

According to friends who are familiar with the palm of the Sichuan tea house, in the past, in addition to those folk artists, there were also a group of people who served tea customers in the tea house, such as the artisan who plucked out his ears. Plucking out your ears may seem like a simple task, but it is actually very knowledgeable. It is necessary to take out what should be paid, not to bleed, and not to make the guest feel the slightest discomfort. So they generally have several tools in their hands, and different tools have different functions, which is not a simple craft.

Sichuan's teahouse, after experiencing many storms, has become a microcosm of social life, which pours out colorful folk art and also brews out the attitude of Sichuan people's life. This attitude echoed in the sound of the old church, and it filled the cup of fragrant tea soup.

Busy for the sake of fame, busy for profit, busy and idle, and drink a cup of tea.
