Beijingers love to drink tea.
Old Beijingers prefer to drink tea. There was a historical stage where people drinking tea was as important as eating, even more important than eating. Until today, tea is still a hot drink that people can't live without, and it is a kind of etiquette in interpersonal communication.
Beijingers drink tea with talk, one for the product, two for the drink, and three for the drink.
Product is the art of the door. It is neither a physiological need for thirst nor a social entertainment etiquette, but an appreciation, a kind of aesthetic enjoyment, a kind of elegant and refined. Mr. Jin Shenshen, a folklore expert from Beijing, once introduced the taste of tea. “Good at tea. There are five aspects to be considered: first, there must be many teapots and cups. Pots such as jugs and cups are like wine glasses. Just try to taste them, so as to watch the environment, such as breeze, moon, pine, bamboo. Rhyme, Meikai, Xueyu...not solving thirst, so the tea set should be small. The second thing is to store water. What is Huishan spring water, which is the Yangtze River heart water, and the first snow water, plum blossoms on the snow, three volts Rainwater...what is necessary to drink now, what needs to be stored every other year, what must be buried underground, what must be shaken, what should not be shaken, there is a certain truth. The third must talk about tea. What is the 'flag'? What is the 'gun', what kind of 'previously', what kind of 'pre-rain', what is the real estate tea, all in the heart, hidden in the sputum, what kind of environment should be used, which kind of water should be cooked? It is uncomfortable to grow tea. As for the so-called 'red and green flower tea', 'West Lake Longjing' is just a mediocre vulgar crystal, especially the 'jasmine double clams', which are scorned by tea lovers. Tell me how to cook tea and boil water. What kind of heat is not allowed to be slightly worse. It is roughly: 'a boiled like a crab eye', referring to the surface of the water bubble Words, 'two boiled like pines', refers to the sound of water boiling. Water is not as boiling as can not drink, too boiling to lose its water taste, defeat its tea, work; can not drink. As for which kind of water to use which kind of wood There is considerable research on the burning. The fifth is to talk about the tea. At the beginning of tea, you know that it is a kind of tea, and then close your eyes and carefully taste it, that is, know the water quality is high, and you can enjoy the famous tea. Then, the tea ceremony is still awkward!" (Jin Sushen "Life in Old Beijing") Later, tea was sent to Japan, forming a culture of drinking culture - tea ceremony, but compared with the Chinese tea ceremony, only the fur Hey.
Drink, the word in the current Beijing language, is a literary word, a elegant word. Not for the purpose of quenching thirst, but for the form of etiquette. For example, when you are at home, the owner will clean the tea set and then ritually smother it, brew the tea, pour it into the cup, and deliver it with both hands. The guests also took the hands and the owner took a cup of himself. The two sides sat down and talked while drinking. For another example, about a few relatives and friends to the wonderful scenery, brewing a pot of camphor, sitting on the fence, the far-sightedness of the near object, the fragrance of tea on hand, the elegant and leisurely, and enjoy it. Another example is to see the boss, the superior or participate in an elegant party and meeting, each with a cup, during which, even a sip, without losing the system, is also a courtesy expression, fully embodies the tea courtesy. For all kinds of drinks, tea must be the top grade of popular tea. In the "Dream of Red Mansions", Miaoyu called the Baodi and Daiyu to another quiet room, and prepared a tea set. When the two men sip Yalong, they published a wonderful speech: "A cup of tea. For the product, the second cup is the stupid thing to quench the thirst, and the three cups are the drink." She also used the word "drink" here, but it is the drink word of the drinker. There are two pronunciations in Beijing, one for drinking (printing) and one for drinking tea (introduction). There are two drinking words in the pronunciation. In the past, there was only one drinking voice, or the wonderful five used the drinking sound of the drinking animal instead of drinking the drinking sound of tea. We don’t know it, so we dare not add it. Speculation. But one thing is certain, Miao Yu believes that less drink tea is elegant, while sipping is disdain for the famous celebrity.
Drinking is a popular word in Beijing dialect. When it comes to drinking tea, it is also a popular hot drink, which is to solve the physiological needs of thirst and the auxiliary of time-consuming occasions. In the past, there were very few warm-up bottles in the homes of ordinary people. The water in a large iron pot boiled, lifted, poured a few times into the ground, and the sound of "å™—å™—" sounded, indicating that the water was on. Lift the iron pot and pour the boiling water into it, rush into the large porcelain teapot, cover it, and suffocate for a while. When you drink, pour the water out of a tea pot, then pour it back, smash it, make the tea taste stronger and more simmer, and drink the first bowl. Later, after having a thermos bottle, I used the thermos bottle to make tea and continue the water. But the procedure for drinking remains the same. Such people who drink tea are generally public figures who have been engaged in manual labor for a long time in Beijing. They work outside for a day, tired and lacking, go home to eat, always brew a teapot to quench their thirst and get rid of greasy, or drink at home alone, or take the pot to the hospital, and the old buddies down Chess, the mountains, is undoubtedly a kind of enjoyment after labor. This method of drinking tea often does not require much flavor, but it must be required to have a deeper color.
What kind of tea is Beijing drinking tea, drinking tea and drinking tea?
In terms of the absolute number of public and private teas, it is mainly jasmine tea. He Wei Jasmine Tea? It is to mix the whole whole thick and fresh jasmine into green tea. After the simmering, the tea is scented with strong jasmine flowers. This kind of tea is called jasmine tea. Because the tea is rich, On the Beijing tea shop, it is called a fragrant piece, or a fragrant piece of tea.
Tea, should have won the elegant body of white body, why do you want to mix other plants and change the natural tea? This is the reason for Beijing's soil and water. In the past, Beijing used to drink well water. In most areas, the water quality was not good and there was bitterness. People have to borrow flowers to suppress the leeches. The scent of the singer is more than the fragrance of the flowers. This is also a side of the water and soil conservation - Fang people, Beijing's water quality has become a habit of Beijing people like to drink jasmine tea.
The production of jasmine tea, before being purchased in the South, has been processed locally and can be directly consumed in Beijing. Some also transported green tea into Beijing, and the tea shop itself blended with flowers to make jasmine tea. Homemade jasmine tea, using the jasmine of Fengtai Huangtugang. In the Republic of China, jasmine was priced according to flowers, and every hundred jasmine flowers were sold for an ocean octagonal, which was quite expensive.
There are many ethnic groups in Beijing. Although all ethnic groups drink tea, they also have their own characteristics in drinking tea because of different national customs. For example, the Hui people, in addition to drinking jasmine tea, also like to drink a national tea called three bubble Taiwan. The production method is very particular. Use a bowl of lid, put a little tea, two dried dates, two longan, a few scallions, and then put some sugar or sugar, brew with boiling water, soak for a while, do not have flavor.
In the early years, the Jingjia people also made earth tea of ​​various fruit leaves. The production method is simple. The fruit leaves are first steamed in a large iron pan, taken out, and chopped. In this way, jujube leaves, apricot leaves, persimmon leaves, apple leaves, and rose flower tea can be made, and the water can be brewed. There is also a simpler jujube tea making. After throwing a few dried red dates into the brazier or the stove pit, burn them out and take them out as tea. The water has the coke and sweetness of the dates, and the name is called “jujube teaâ€. These two types of earth tea are the “tea drinking water†of the poor people in the past.
In addition, there are several kinds of medicinal teas that are clear and poisonous, such as chrysanthemum tea and honeysuckle.
Of course, no matter which kind of tea, you must use boiling water. If you use cold water, then you should have a sentence from the Beijingers: cold water tea - a bubble, meaning dry work, soup, no effort.
When it comes to drinking tea, you can't help but talk about the teahouses in old Beijing.
The teahouses in old Beijing used to be very popular. When talking about the emergence of this phenomenon, Mr. Jin Shenshen said that the reason is very thorough: "Eight Flags and Twenty-four Gushan, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Sanqi, Sanshan, and the two sides of the warehouse, according to In the whole month, the whole grain is closed to the grain, and the whole car is pulled to the glutinous rice. The family has surplus food, and there is no vegetable color. Apart from the fun of the worms, the horses and the eagle, and the camel, do not go to the teahouse to go to the past? So the big teahouse will be developed. From this, it can be seen that the rise and prosperity of the Beijing teahouse industry was lifted by this group of rich and idle people. Until this time - when the class is down, although sometimes the "chewing ghosts" that are too poor tomorrow have not yet landed, today we must first soak in the teahouse. This is the case where drinking tea is more important than eating.
There are two types of teahouses (including tea houses) and open-air tea sheds in Beijing.
In addition to the scale and management characteristics of the tea house and the tea house, there are certain construction sites and facilities. In addition to drinking tea, tea customers can also buy snacks, snacks, and rice. You can even enjoy folk entertainment such as storytelling, cross talk, and singing. Tears can also chat in the teahouses, shake the bar and brag according to their own needs. They can talk about business to resolve conflicts and seek careers to find jobs. In short, the teahouses in Beijing used to be a place for people to rest, social places of communication, and places to spend their time.
On the bank of Shichahai, there was a tea house. The owner was surnamed Yang. People borrowed the name of Peking Opera and Yang Xiaolou, and the tea house was Yang Xiaolou. The one who was first empathic, respected as the Crown Prince, and later driven out of the palace by Cixi, was fascinated by the squandering of wine, and had no means of earning a living. Kill the rest of your life.
Tea sheds and tea stalls are simple and popular drinking stations on the streets or temple fairs with low fees. People are tired of walking, and they have a long time to go to the temple. They can sit in at any time, spend a few pieces of copper, and drink a large bowl of tea. The big bowl is quite impressive. If the big rice bowl for people eats, the price is not in the teahouse. Calculated by the pot.
Speaking of this, a kind of wild teahouse in Beijing can't help but mention that this is a simple teahouse with rural game in the suburbs. At that time, outside the city gates of Beijing, where there were beautiful scenery and places frequented by people, there were often such wild teahouses. Famous in Beijing is the wild tea house on the second gate of Tonghui River outside Dongbianmen.
The teahouse is on the riverside, with the reed seats as the shed, the stone as the table and stool, the fence around the fence, the planting of several morning glory, the vines around the fence, and the same flower collar, people call it the teahouse. Tears drink tea breaks, the boat slides over the desk, the light wind sweeps the gourd flower, and the straw hangs in the forest, just like the Jiangnan water town.
The teahouse of Erzha is so famous that it has been circulated on both sides of the Tonghui River. It is called "to drink tea on the second gate and to eat at Gaobeidian."
In addition, there is a kind of tea association in Beijing, which is a kind of flower festival. Every year when Miaofeng Mountain and other temples are opened, the flowers will be rushed. In the old temple next to the team, or in the temporary scaffolding, the tea-clearing society will put on a large copper pot with a beautifully shaped special hot coal on the bottom of the fire. The tea will be brewed and supplied free to the members of the flower club and the pilgrims. .
