Tea culture with eight treasures and a bowl of tea is a major feature of Chengdu. Covered bowl tea is a kind of tea set with a lid on the top, a tray on the bottom and a bowl in the middle. Also known as the "three-talented bowl", the cover is the sky, the support is the ground, and the bowl is human. Covered with a bowl of tea, the charm is endless. The tea cover is placed in the bowl. If the tea soup is thicker, it can be scraped gently on the water surface with the tea cover, so that the whole bowl of tea can be turned up and down. It is wonderful to scrape lightly and scrape heavily. Some people who know the tea ceremony are good at tasting tea. They think that if the tea is fragrant but not clear, it is ordinary tea, fragrant but not sweet is bitter tea, and sweet but not alive cannot be called superior tea. Only fresh, cool and alive tea is the best tea. Gaiwancha was first invented and unique in Chengdu. The so-called "covered bowl of tea" includes three parts: tea cover, tea bowl and tea boat, so it is called covered bowl or three batteries. Tea boat, also known as tea boat, is the saucer that bears the tea bowl. According to legend, it was invented in Chengdu by the daughter of Cui Ning, our time-giver, during the middle age of Dezongjian in Tang Dynasty (780-783). Because the original teacup had no substrate and often burned his fingers, the son of Cui Ning cleverly invented a wooden plate to support the teacup. In order to prevent the cup from falling easily when drinking tea, she tried to ring the center of the wooden plate with wax to make the cup easy to fix. This is the earliest tea boat. Later, the tea boat changed to paint ring instead of wax ring, which was convenient for everyone. To the later generations, the ring bottom was made more and more novel, with various shapes, like a ring bottom cup. A unique tea boat culture, also called Gaiwancha culture, was born in Chengdu. This unique way of drinking tea gradually developed from the point of Bashu to the surrounding areas, and later it spread all over the south. Sichuan people also pay special attention to the use of tea covers: when drinking tea, the tea cover is placed on the table, indicating that the teacup is empty, and Dr. Tea will come over soon to refill the water; When the tea drinker leaves temporarily, he puts the tea lid on the bamboo chair, which means that the person has not gone far, and when he is young, he will go to Babao to cover the bowl of tea. Naturally, no one will occupy the seat, and the waiter will also take care of the tea set and snacks. Dr. Cha's tea pouring skill is a unique landscape of Sichuan teahouse. The water column fell into the air and poured into the tea bowl, tumbling and sounding; In an instant, the tea came to a sudden stop, just flush with the bowl, and there was no drop of water outside the bowl, which was both a stunt and an artistic enjoyment. China is the hometown of tea, and its rich tea culture comes down in one continuous line with a long history. China's tea culture combines the essence of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, especially showing Confucianism's sobriety, optimism, enthusiasm, affinity and tolerance to the fullest. The Bashu land with thousands of years of civilization has evolved the Chinese tea culture into a unique one-Sichuan tea culture. Tea culture in Chengdu has evolved into a "teahouse culture" with unique Bashu characteristics. There is a proverb that says: "There are fewer sunny days in Sichuan, but there are many teahouses in front of us". Chengdu Teahouse is remarkable because it has rich social functions: leisure, gathering, entertainment and civil court. Chengdu people love to go into teahouses because Sichuanese like to "put on a dragon's gate array", that is, in the bustling teahouses, while drinking a bowl of tea, they have a wide horizon, and after dinner, they are accompanied by refreshments and folk art performances, talking and laughing, which is really the joy of life. Besides leisure, teahouse is also an important social place. In the old society, three religions and nine streams gathered here, where different industries and various associations learned about the market, negotiated business and saw goods transactions; Underworld buys and sells guns and opium; The "pier" organized by Paoge is also permanently located in the teahouse. Most of these teahouses also run restaurants and hotels. During the winter and summer vacations, the teahouse has become the battlefield for the "six-wax war" for hiring teachers. It can be said that the teahouse is regarded as a good place to get together in all 72 lines. Teahouses thus become a mirror of social life. Teahouses in the old society also had the function of mediating social disputes. If there is a dispute between relatives and neighbors, the two sides agree to "judge" in a teahouse. Anyone who goes to a teahouse to mediate a dispute will be asked by both parties to mediate by local bigwigs, and the opponents of the two sides participating in the debate will be arbitrated by the mediator after a heated argument. As the saying goes, "a table with four legs can be taken off." If both sides have their own faults, they will each pay half of the tea money; If one party is indefensible, it is necessary to admit defeat and pay for the tea. Teahouses are also social, cultural and entertainment places. In the evening, the teahouse has Sichuan opera "Playing Friends" to sit and sing, commonly known as "playing drums around". In addition, some teahouses have performances such as Sichuan dulcimer, storytelling, qingyin and money board. People sitting in teahouses can enjoy folk art programs with strong local characteristics while drinking tea. In addition to selling tea, the teahouse also sells snacks such as candy, cigarettes, melon seeds and peanuts. After liberation, the teahouse also increased playing cards, playing chess, reading newspapers, watching flowers and birds, and even singing karaoke and watching video programs. The content is becoming more and more fashionable and novel. However, the function of teahouse as a traditional folk social activity venue has never changed. Teahouses in Chengdu are mostly made of bamboo, filled with bamboo tables and chairs. Xu Lai is breezy and fragrant with tea. Most of the selected teas are jasmine tea, Longjing tea and Biluochun tea. The tea set is made of the exquisite bowl-covered tea in the north. The tea bowl, the tea boat and the tea cover of this tea set are trinity, each with its own unique function. The tea boat is the saucer that holds the bowl, and the cup is held by the tea boat, which will not burn the desktop and is convenient for serving tea; The tea cover is conducive to making tea fragrance as soon as possible, and can scrape off floating foam, which is convenient for watching, smelling and drinking tea; The tea cover is inverted, which is a convenient container for herbal tea and drinking tea. Exquisite tea sets with a bowl cover are both practical and beautiful, forming a group of works of art. Dr. Cha's tea pouring skill is a unique landscape of the old teahouse. The water column fell into the air and poured into the tea bowl, tumbling and sounding; In a moment, the tea came to a sudden stop, just flush with the bowl, and there was no drop of water outside the bowl. This is not only a stunt, but also an artistic enjoyment. Teahouses in Chengdu have always been extremely prosperous. Whether it is a scenic spot or a busy street, you can see folk teahouses with local colors everywhere. These teahouses have low fees and thoughtful service, and customers can often sit for half a day with a cup of fragrant teas and a plate of snacks. In talking with relatives and friends, the tea culture of Bashu land is also reflected incisively and vividly.
