Chen Fang asked Cheng Yue to ask for a business car for a hotel. Several people drove for about twenty minutes and arrived at a fork with two roads. The uphill was a valley on the southern foot of the South Peak, with the road sign named Manjuelong Road. The other slightly smoother was the famous Hupao Road, which led directly to Hupao Spring. There were lush forests on both sides, and the air felt much fresher.

Although it was not a weekend, the parking lot on both sides were still full of tourists coming to Pingui. Chen Fang asked Cheng Yue to find a place to park his car and took Zhou Qi, Li Hui and others to prepare for a walk.

"Let's go, let's go along this road." Chen Fang pointed to the sign on Manjuelong Road and said: "The above is the famous Manjuelong Village in Hangzhou. The 'Manlong Guiyu Rain' here is known as one of the ten scenic spots in Hangzhou."

"So famous? Why haven't I heard of it?" Qin Mohan didn't believe it, but the fragrance of osmanthus flowers that drifted with the wind still made her yearn for it.

"I remember the most in Jiangnan. I found the osmanthus in the moonlight in the mountain temple, and saw the tide on the pillow of the county pavilion. When will I visit again? It's here."

"Tsk, show off. Sister, too!" Qin Mohan thought for a while, and had heard this poem, and then walked forward proudly.

In the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, the fragrance of osmanthus is indispensable in Hangzhou, a city with osmanthus as its market flower. However, there is an indispensable place to look at osmanthus in Hangzhou, which is known as the "Permanent Osmanthus Rain" among the "Ten Scenerys of New Hangzhou City".

Manlong is also called Manjuelong, named after the temple Manjue Temple, which means "full enlightenment". In a thousand years, although it is not known whether the temple host is perfect, Manjue Temple has dissipated in the long river of history, leaving only Manjuelong Village here to inherit its name.

Manjuelong Road is divided into two sections, from the foot of the mountain, the first one to reach is Xiamanjuelong. Park the vehicle next to the road, and a few people hike, and a section of uphill that is not too hard, just exercise.

Near Hupaoquan, almost every household on the roadside here is engaged in tea and osmanthus business. In the lazy sunshine in autumn, the old men in Hangzhou crossed their legs, moved a bamboo stool casually, tasted a cup of tea made by their own home, ate a piece of osmanthus cake, and squinted their eyes to look at passers-by.

There are osmanthus trees on both sides of Manlong Road. There is a gust of autumn wind and a shower. The gust of autumn wind blows. The golden osmanthus flowers fall all over the ground. No matter where you go, you can smell this refreshing fragrance. There are small shops selling osmanthus candy on the roadside, including rice candy, cut candy, and a hollow tube candy. Qin Mohan couldn't help but buy a lot of them and gave them to Chen Fang to take them. He took a piece of osmanthus rice candy while walking.

"Wow, it's really beautiful." Qin Mohan couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at the golden piece under the osmanthus tree, like a blanket covered with gold foil.

"It's worth this trip." Chen Fang couldn't help but say proudly: "In the Ming Dynasty, someone wrote: Pearls, jade trees, fragrant all over the sky, enjoy the depth, and suddenly enter the world of spiritual vultures and golden millet."

"Wow, didn't you expect you to be quite knowledgeable?" Qin Mohan first showed a surprised gaze, looking at Chen Fang a little embarrassed. Qin Mohan followed his gaze and saw a stone tablet not far away with a passage of text engraved on it.

"The most prosperous place of osmanthus is Nanshan Mountain, with many Longjing. The place names are full of houses, and the forest is like a wall comb. A village takes the city flowers as its business, and each province takes it here. In autumn, Ce Qian enters the mountain to see flowers, and he can feel the fragrance from several miles away. Entering the path, the pearls and jade trees are full of fragrance, and you can enjoy the depth of the mountains. It is easy to appreciate the world of spiritual vultures and golden millets - Gao Lian of the Ming Dynasty."

"Haha!" Qin Mohan couldn't help laughing at Chen Fang: "I said, you have heard of such a niche article, it turns out that he has a good look."

Chen Fang didn't care about the exposed one and smiled: "West Lake is a breeze in August, where is the fragrance that spreads through the nose and looks at the secluded place? I feel that gold and millet are everywhere beside the ridge, and the wind blows into the autumn mountains. So have you heard of this poem?"

Qin Mohan repeatedly looked at the stone tablet and did not find the poem. He glared at him angrily: "Hmph, although I have never heard of it, there must be records in this village. I will talk about it after I find it." After that, he continued to go up along Manlong Road.

There is a B&B called Feiniaoji in Shangman Juelong Village. It is one of the first batch of shops in Hangzhou that started to build "B&B and Cafe". Qin Mohan, who was tired, stepped straight into this cafe.

"Hey, orange cat." Looking at the orange cat lying on the side of the guardrail, Qin Mohan couldn't help but scream: "If the little orange had grown up, it wouldn't have become so fat."

"Nine out of ten orange cats are fat, and the remaining one is crushed. Our little orange will be even better than it in the future. That weight will definitely upside down."

"Superporous all living beings..." Qin Mohan laughed at his adjective and patted him, but looking at the little fat cat in front of him, he was also worried about the little orange in the future.

After only two months at home, the little orange cat in his house had grown to about 6 pounds, and it was heavy in his hand. Moreover, the little orange was so delicious that he lay on the guardrail of the hand-paper paradise all day long, and even Mocha was ignoring it even if he was harassing it. Fortunately, Sisi and Jiajia have returned to Yanjing after school. They can get it from time to time, otherwise it would be even more amazing.

The shop has a Chinese-style building with blue bricks and gray tiles, but it is decorated with Japanese style, wooden fences, courtyards, and ivy...

There were a lot of tourists today, and during this period, there were tourists who recognized the two and asked politely whether they could take a photo. Despite the fatigue of going up the mountain, Qin Mohan still did not refuse the fans' request. Chen Fang looked at the increasing number of tourists, so he bought two cups of hand-made coffee here and pulled Qin Mohan away in a hurry.

Most of Shangman Juelong Road are rebuilt B&Bs, which basically inherit the grace and tranquility of this Jiangnan city. Especially for such B&Bs hidden in the mountains, if they happen to be accompanied by the mist after the rain, it is really a lively landscape painting.

Every object in the mountain house is well integrated into the hotel, with a lot of blank space used, and the room is simple and simple. When you open the window, you can see the entire green area at the top of Manjuelong Mountain without any disturbance from tourists.

However, Qin Mohan and the others had no desire to appreciate. They drank coffee and went downhill along the road they came. Before they could reach Manjuelong Village, Zhou Qi handed over the phone, which was called by Liang Hui.

"Sister Hui, have you also arrived in Hangzhou?... Chen Fang and I are here to watch the osmanthus flowers... You are waiting, I will ask him." Qin Mohan covered the microphone and said to Chen Fang: "Sister Hui has arrived at the hotel. I ask where we are and prepare to have dinner with us in the evening."

"Tell me the phone number, I'll tell her." Chen Fang reached out and answered Qin Mohan's cell phone: "Liang Hui, I'm Chen Fang. Deng Chao and the others are in the hotel too?...Okay, I'll treat you to dinner in the evening...I'll ask Master Cheng to drive to pick you up...You're driving here, so I'll send you the address to you, you can drive directly, not far from the hotel...Okay, I'll call Brother Chao immediately and talk about it later."

Then Chen Fang called Deng Chao and asked him to have a meal together in the evening. Chen He happened to be with him, so he asked him to bring Chen He over.

Then he edited the address and sent it to Liang Hui and Deng Chao. He handed the phone to Zhou Qi and said to Qin Mohan: "Brother Chao and Chen He have also arrived in Hangzhou. We will gather together tonight. This time, if you want to be outstanding, you still need the help of Brother Chao and others."

"Where are we treating them to dinner? Louwailou?"

"Louwailou is a trick to travel to foreign tourists. We are having dinner nearby, and I will take you to a place you haven't been to."

"Then let's go there quickly. When you say that, I feel hungry. The buffet I ate for lunch has been digested."

"Or I'll carry you on my back." Chen Fang was about to squat down. Qin Mohan looked at the tourists coming and going on both sides and hurriedly pulled him up. The two of them were already a bit different with sunglasses. If they were playing like this, they would probably attract onlookers.

Chen Fang smiled and didn't tease her. He pointed to the corner of Hu running away in front and said, "It's here."

On Hupao Road, walking up the ramp ten meters, there is a path with a bluestone door wall erected next to it, with the shop sign "Scarlett Garden" written on it, and there are four notes next to it: There are wisteria in spring, the shade of trees in summer, the fragrance of osmanthus in autumn, and the snow scenery in winter.

"Oh, the artistic conception is good. I just don't know how the dishes are." As soon as I passed the door wall, Qin Mohan didn't even have the time to appreciate the scenery of the courtyard, so he pulled Shenfang into the courtyard.

The square courtyard is full of green green. The breeze blows down the osmanthus flowers and falls down the pool. A few koi eat flowers and are happy. When they walk into the restaurant, although the furnishings are ordinary, they are spacious and comfortable. Two waiters in the welcoming area, wearing blue and white cheongsams stood in front of a screen with the name of "Scarlett Garden" store. Watching several people enter, they asked the leader Chen Fang and Qin Mohan: "Welcome! Do you have an appointment?"

"Ah, you still have to make an appointment in this restaurant?" Qin Mohan asked Chen Fang in surprise. It was around five o'clock and it was not yet dinner time. Could it be that the meal time was full?

Chen Fang said to Qin Mohan: "Yes, this place is like Zhan Bo's Linhuju. It is all private dishes. If you don't make an appointment, you can only have time-honored vegetables. There is no meat dish."

"Then let's change one?" Qin Mohan asked Chen Fang in uncertainty.

"Since I've brought you here, there must be a private room." Chen Fang said to the waiter: "Please call Manager Yao."

The waiter looked at the faces of the two people in front of him who were covered by wide sunglasses, but they were very demeanor. After following the people, they were always paying attention to the surroundings. They were obviously bodyguards or assistants. Seeing this style, one of the waiters said: "Manager Yao is picking up water in Hupao and will be back in about ten minutes. Please come with me, you can wait in the tea area first."

Looking at Chen Fang and the two of them were puzzled, the waiter explained: "Every morning, nearby residents, including some citizens in Hangzhou, would take buckets to Hupaoquan to collect water. We belong to the catering industry and use a large amount of water, so we can get water at a fixed time every afternoon. In order to ensure that the water quality is not polluted, Manager Yao personally takes people to get it."

Chen Fang was very satisfied with the waiter's attitude, and followed Qin Mohan to a teahouse next to the hall. The teahouse was not big, more than ten square meters, a mahogany tea table more than one meter wide and two meters long was placed in the center. There were several wooden trunks cut from the same mahogany as stools on the front, which looked very original. On both sides were curtains woven by green bamboo half hanging in the middle of the window. Through the solid wood railings, you could see the distant mountains, and the fragrance of osmanthus was wafting, and the room was filled with faint fragrance.

There was a full-time tea artist in the teahouse, wearing a sky-blue double-breasted Chinese short-sleeved clothing, with exquisite hair combed behind the ears. The waiter called Chen Fang to sit down, and then nodded to the tea artist: "These are Manager Yao's friends, please welcome them."

"Hello." The tea artist looked at Chen Fang and Qin Mohan sitting opposite him, while Cheng Yue and others sat on the chairs near the door, knowing that these two were the main owners.

The tea artist said: "We have Mingqian Longjing picked from our own tea garden. It is most suitable to use the water from Hupao Spring to brew it. Do you two want to taste it?"

"Yes, just drink Longjing." Chen Fang nodded.

The tea artist squatted slightly at the tea table, took out a white porcelain lid cup from the side, took out the transparent kettle next to it, poured it on it, and poured it out. After the warm cup, use a bamboo teaspoon to take out half a spoon of tea leaves from a tea barrel made of old green bamboo and put it into the white porcelain cup.

First add a little warm boiled water, pick up the brewing cup, shake slowly to make the tea completely wet, and let the tea stretch naturally. After the tea leaves are slightly stretched, add nine-quarters of boiling water. Wait for the tea leaves to dissolve the tea soup. Use the lid of the cup to slightly tweak the tea soup to make the tea soup dissolved more evenly. Finally, pour them into the small tea cup in front of Chen Jie and Qin Mohan.

"Please!" The tea artist's palm was slanted, stretched out to the two of them, and then poured out three cups and handed them to Cheng Yue and others.

"It smells so good." Qin Mohan pinched a small cup with two fingers and sniffed it in front of his nose. After smelling the osmanthus flowers for a whole afternoon, it could not cover the unique tea fragrance like orchids and beans. Drink it into his mouth, it was fresh and sweet, quiet but not cold, and sipped indifferently.

"I feel that all the tea we used to drink wasted." Qin Mohan drank all the tea and said in a silence.

"Not ruined, I feel comfortable drinking Longjing tea in a glass cup." Chen Fang didn't have so much emotion: "You feel good, it probably has something to do with this water. Although Hupaoquan is only the third spring in the world, when you go to Longjing, you still have to rely on Hupaoquan to make the taste."

"What this gentleman said is that only the water of Hupao Spring can truly show the characteristics of Longjing tea's 'green color, rich fragrance, sweet taste, and beautiful shape'." The tea artist said to Chen Fang: "And only our tea garden can grow such tea leaves."

"Where did the Longjing we drink?" Qin Mohan suddenly remembered and asked Chen Fang.

"Haha, I finally asked the main point." Chen Fang smiled and said, "Our tea is produced here and is taken from this tea garden every year."

When the tea artist heard Chen Fang's words, he looked carefully at the first two people, and then asked uncertainly: "Sir, are you your surname?"

Chen Fang took off his sunglasses and signaled that Qin Mohan would also take off his sunglasses.

"It turns out it's Mr. Chen." The tea artist stood up and saluted, and then said to Chen Fang: "Please wait a moment. I'll call Manager Yao and urge him." After that, he said goodbye and went out.

"It turns out that this is Sister Hui's tea garden." Qin Mohan thought of the sign at the door and asked uncertainly: "Scarlett Garden? Sisi and Jiajia?"

"Well, it's their names. The restaurant and the tea garden behind them belong to them. "Chen Fang said to Qin Mohan: "The Longjing tea you drink every year is theirs. Next time you remember to give them more gifts as a return gift."

"Haha, I didn't expect that Sisi and Jiajia have industries." Qin Mohan thought about the appearance of the two cute kids. If she was a serious little boss, it would definitely be fun: "Last time, Sister Xiaoying mentioned it to me and was going to find me to do some side job. She wanted to invest in a restaurant in Hengdian and ask me to join. What do you think?"

"If you want to invest, just invest. It's not too big in Hengdian. I guess Xiaoying is considering that she is ready to invest while filming."
