People here
Are born on the Tea mountains and grow up in the aroma of tea.
The tea fragrance is lingering, as are their hearts.
Recently,
Menghai County has entered the spring tea picking season.
In the tea gardens, lush and verdant;
In the courtyards, bustling with activity.
After picking the tea leaves, they proceed to make tea,
And this process of making tea
Is repeated hundreds of times each tea season by the tea farmers.
Being with tea
Is not only their profession,
But also their way of life.
In their leisure time,
They steep a pot of tea, savoring a wisp of its clear fragrance,
Whether strong or light, it's comfortable and romantic.
