Afternoon tea originated in Britain and spread among British nobles in the 17th century.
In the past, Hong Kong Island was occupied by Britain, and its catering culture was also deeply influenced. Afternoon tea is now an important leisure habit of Hong Kong Islanders.
Longfeng teahouse.
Now the top floor of the whole teahouse has been chartered, and there are even plain clothes patrols around it. It's obvious that there are big people in it.
Luoyu and Qiao Xiangxue both appeared.
Luo Yu's Brioni suit is formal, but not grand enough.
Originally, Qiao Xiangxue wanted him to wear a tuxedo, but Luo Yu didn't like it.
Qiao Xiangxue herself, however, rarely wears a dress, an aristocratic hat and white gloves.
She usually wears a Chinese style long skirt, elegant and moving, just like Guanghan fairy. Now her dress is flawless and complements each other. She is really a suffocating cold beauty, that is, Luo Yu. She can still look as usual with her. Most men are afraid that their legs are soft.
Two people came upstairs, afternoon tea has begun, a lot of people, looking at each is a person with identity.
There are three foreigners, a young man with blonde hair and blue eyes, who can compete with Beckhams in appearance. There is a beautiful girl like a Barbie doll sitting on his right side, very uneasy.
On the left side of the blonde man, there is a middle-aged foreigner in a high hat, knowledgeable.
In addition, it's all yellow skin, but in the middle of it, there's actually the figure of Lu Ming, and it seems to be very popular here. Everyone's eyes revolve around him.
There was also an old man who was quite attractive. Other people were in suits and formal clothes, but he was wearing an old-fashioned black coat. His head was withered and his face was yellow and thin, but he could still sit there with a folding fan in his hand and talk happily.
"Xiangxue, yu'er, you're here. Come and sit down."
Seeing Luo Yu and his wife go upstairs, Sophie quickly greets them, and then pulls them over to introduce them to everyone present.
"This is my granddaughter Qiao Xiangxue, and this is her husband Luo Yu."
After introducing them, Sophie introduces others one by one.
"This is the prince of England, his highness betas."
"This is Princess Alice."
"This is Ambassador Rodman."
"These are the director of audit and his wife."
"This is Mr. Wu Changqing, the most famous master of Feng Shui Metaphysics on Hong Kong Island."
"This is Lu Ming, a good friend of his highness betas and a high disciple of Master Lu."
"And this one, he's the eldest son of the Huo family, Huo Jamin!"
Many people came to have afternoon tea. They listened to Sophie's voice. Many of them were masters and wives who held important positions on Hong Kong Island during the British period.
Although these people are no longer in their position, they still have great social influence.
In addition, there are several representatives of Hong Kong Island's rich and powerful families, among them, we have noticed that Huo Jieming.
This man has a sharp mouth and a bad eye. To tell you the truth, his appearance is not flattering, and he is actually the young master of the Huo family.
Previously in Jianghuai, Luo Yu heard Huo Wanru mention her elder brother. According to Huo Wanru's idea, the biggest obstacle for her to inherit her family property now is the goods.
It's not hard for Luo Yu to see that Huo Wanru tried her best to help him. He didn't look like a brother born by his parents, and he didn't want to wait to die. Looking at his eager eyes for Lu Ming and the master of Feng Shui Metaphysics, he must have these two people to support him.
Thinking of this, Luo Yu couldn't help looking at the master of Feng Shui Metaphysics.
Luo Yu has heard a little about this man. When he gathered in the hotel that night, Wu Fangtu and other warlocks held him high.
According to Wu Fangtu at that time, he thought that he could be in the top 20 of Fengshui in China. Who was the number one? This is Wu Changqing from Hong Kong Island.
As we all know, the rich people on Hong Kong Island attach great importance to Feng Shui, so it's not surprising that the first feng shui master on Hong Kong Island can even compete with the British Prince here.
When Luo Yu pays attention to this side, Lu Ming also sees Luo Yu and Qiao Xiangxue through the mirror reflection of the teacup in his hand, and the corners of his mouth are slightly raised.
In fact, he knew they would come for a long time, because Lin Xitai and Sophie had already warmed up for us.
Lu Ming originally only wanted to invite the two elders to have afternoon tea. By the way, Qiao Xiangxue's marriage is not satisfactory now. He asked the two elders to go back to the Qiao family and ask for help. But he didn't expect that the two elders would bring the couple here, which made him a little surprised.
"It's just right. If you don't come, others will think I'm making a rumor behind my back." Lu Ming thinks this is a good opportunity.
After the introduction, Sophie pulls Luo Yu and Qiao Xiangxue to find a place to sit.
Luo Yu saw that there was a small box in front of everyone, in which there were all kinds of small things to carry. The material was not worth money, but everyone was as happy as a treasure.
Grandfather Lin Xitai was also holding a jade finger in his hand. He was fascinated by it. Even Luo Yu and Qiao Xiangxue came in just now, but they didn't care to greet him.
"Xiangxue, yu'er, come and see. There are many treasures here."
As soon as she sat down, her grandmother Sophie also grabbed the small pendant in the box in front of her and held it in front of the two younger generation. She was too happy to close her mouth.
"These are the gifts that Mr. Lu Ming brought to us."
"Don't look down upon these objects, you young couple. They are all Mahayana treasures that Mr. Lu has opened. They are spiritual."
Her old lady, although boastful, but around many big people, but very agree with the appearance, some people picked up their own gifts, can't put it down in that proud.
Luo Yu understood. No wonder that guy is so popular now.
However, for these so-called Mahayana treasures, Luo Yu is not only funny, but also lazy to take a look at them.
The old lady was not only boasting, but also demonstrating to the couple who just came in.
I saw the old lady hanging a small pendant on the leaf of a potted tree nearby. In those days, the leaf withered at the speed visible to the naked eye.
This was a little scary, but immediately, the old lady demonstrated a very magical scene.
She took the pendant back and gently wiped it on the back of her hand.
No matter how to maintain your wife in her sixties or seventies, her skin is full of wrinkles. However, where she wiped it with a pendant, the wrinkles have dissipated a lot, and the effect is clear at a glance.
"Mr. Lu said that it's called transplanting flowers and grafting trees. It's a pity that this Mahayana Taoist treasure has just been raised. Now it can only be used three times a day. After a few more years, it's more amazing!"
Grandma Sophie looks intoxicated. People around her are eager to say this. Obviously, they are looking forward to the effects of these treasures.
Qiao Xiangxue's eyes were shocked. It was the first time that she saw such a miracle happen.
"Mr. Lu, my granddaughter and son-in-law are late. Can you give them two Dacheng Daobao as well?"
Sophie's grandmother really loves her younger generation. She is very happy to get the treasure, and she doesn't forget to worry about the couple. She solemnly and respectfully asks Lu Ming for their treasure.
Lu Ming brought gifts to everyone present today. However, this time, he continued to be generous. Instead, he looked at Luo Yu and Qiao Xiangxue with a smile. He was very helpless and sighed:
"I'm not stingy, but last time I sent a Dao Bao to sister Xiang Xue, which is 100 times better than today's, but it was destroyed by your son-in-law. Your son-in-law's vision is too high. I don't think it's OK to give it away so as not to let the good things be ruined."
As soon as these words came out, all the complacent masters and wives around them were struck by lightning. Qi Shushu looked up and looked at Luo Yu strangely.
what? A hundred times better than everyone else's Mahayana Daobao, is it ruined by this guy?
