我总在想,若没有芸娘,清朝人沈复绝不会留下脍炙人口的《浮生六记》。“闲情记趣”篇里,记载了他们夫妻俩许多有意思的故事。最让我印象深刻的,是芸娘为茶酿香的那个情节:夏天的荷花,刚开的时候,一般是晚上含苞,早上再绽开。聪明而灵透的芸娘,利用荷花的这一自然本性,用纱囊裹一小撮茶叶在里边,然后,趁荷花将要含苞的时候,放置在花心里。第二天早上,当荷花重新绽开的时候,便取茶叶出来,这时候,用泉水泡之,香韵尤绝。 I always think that if there is no Yun Niang, the Qing Dynasty will never leave behind the popular “floating six.” “Free time”, recorded many interesting stories of the couple. What impresses me most is the plot of Yun Niang for tea brewing: the summer lotus, when it was just started, usually contains the bud at night and blooms again in the morning. Bright and clever Yun Niang, the use of the natural nature of lotus, wrapped in a small hand with a sack of tea inside, and then, while the lotus will be budding, placed in the flower heart. The next morning, when the lotus bloom again, they take the tea out, this time, with the bubble soak, especially elegant fragrance.
