Then, according to the taste of the ladies, they served coffee or tea.

These ladies looked at these fresh and lovely fruits and smelled the refreshing fragrance. They didn’t know if it was their imagination, but they felt that their spirits were much better.

“Oh, Mrs. Gong, these fruits look lovely and fragrant. They must be very delicious!” A lady commented.

“Ah, my God, what kind of tea is this? Why is it so delicious?” A noblewoman widened her eyes and said in disbelief, “Oh, this might be the best Chinese tea I’ve ever tasted!” The noblewoman was indeed a little thirsty. As soon as she sat down, she tasted the tea and was immediately stunned.

She could swear that she had never tasted such a delicious Chinese tea before. The fragrance was refreshing. As soon as it entered her mouth, waves of fragrance flowed out from her throat to her mouth.

Moreover, she felt that after drinking the tea, her muddled mind suddenly became clear.

The noblewoman finished a cup in one go. The servant was very observant and immediately refilled the cup. Then, under the stunned gazes of all the noblewomen, she drank another cup.

There was no trace of restraint or the demeanor of a noblewoman.

After drinking four cups in a row, the noblewoman put down the cup again and only then did she notice the strange gazes of the other noblewomen around her.

Her face immediately turned red. She then wiped the corner of her mouth with a silk cloth and said somewhat embarrassedly, “Well, I’m thirsty. Besides, the tea tastes really good. I couldn’t help but drink a few more cups.” She thought to herself, ‘It’s really a bit embarrassing! But it’s not my fault. The temptation is too great.’

A noblewoman immediately laughed out loud and asked with some curiosity, “Mrs. Smith, is this tea really that good?”

Mrs. Smith nodded and said, “Yes, it’s good. Why don’t you ladies try it yourself? I’m not lying to you!”

Some noblewomen did not like to drink tea and preferred to drink coffee.

They felt that tea was bitter. It was not like coffee. It was bitter when it entered the mouth, but it had a sweet aftertaste.

However, after hearing Smith’s words, five or six people who had ordered coffee immediately wanted to taste the tea, but they were too ashamed to say that.

Xiao Lingyu was a very perceptive person. She immediately instructed the servants, “Bring a cup of tea for each madam. Let each madam have a taste of Chinese tea!”

She was being a very good host.

The two maids quickly brought another cups of tea to the madams who had ordered some coffee.

Of course, there was a cup of tea in front of Xiao Lingyu. She picked it up and said with a smile, “Ladies, this is the Chinese tea that I brought from China. Please have a taste of it. I believe that it won’t disappoint you.”

After saying that, she held a cup of tea and took a sip.

Then, the other ladies also tried it.

“Oh, my God. Isn’t this tea too delicious?”

“I haven’t even drunk it yet, and I can already smell the fragrance of the tea on the table.”

“I can understand Mrs. Smith now. I will drink a few more cups.”

The tea-tasting turned the occasion lively. It was unbelievable that they had fallen in love with this tea. As for the coffee, they had long forgotten about it.

“Mrs. Gong, this is unbelievable.” A lady asked in surprise, “Is this Chinese tea? Why is it different from the tea that I used to drink?”

Xiao Lingyu explained with a smile, “Madam, this is Chinese tea. But the tea leaves were grown by my own farm.”

“Oh, Madam Gong, do you mean that these tea leaves were grown by yourself?”

“That’s right!” Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “I used some special science and technology to grow the tea leaves. The tea leaves that I grew are different from ordinary tea leaves.” At this point, Xiao Lingyu paused for a moment, then pointed at the fruits on the table and said with a smile, “And these fruits are all grown by my own farm. The taste is also different! Ladies, please try them too!”

A noble lady said with a smile, “Mrs. Gong, we all notice that the fruits are very special. They’re more watery than the ones we usually eat. Most importantly, before we even started eating, they were already emitting a refreshing fragrance,” she said, she paused for a moment and looked at Madam Smith. Then, she smiled and said, “If it wasn’t for Madam Smith, we might have eaten the fruits first.”

As soon as she said that, everyone burst into laughter.

“Yes, yes. I was too distracted by Mrs. Smith.”

“Then, we were shocked when we drank the tea ourselves.”

Mrs. Smith blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

Then…

“Ah, are these grapes? How can they be so delicious?” Someone exclaimed.

“Ah, these apples are even more delicious!”

“And watermelons.”

“Oh my God, these fruits are amazing!”

The ladies praised endlessly.
