Lin Shepeng (herbarist)
- The meaning of the name: It hides "the growth and rush of vegetation". "" Refers to the freshness of the newly sprouted vegetation, like his excitement for new plants - he would squat in the corner and watch the dandelions breaking through the ground for half an hour; "" refers to the vitality of the lush vegetation ("ī"" in The Book of Songs). Like the specimens he collected, even the dry leaves can reveal the freshness that once stretched in the wind. The surname Lin is paired with "", which coincides with his journey from wandering collecting to taking root in a teahouse. It has a "moving" aura, but because the aura of vegetation always takes root around "life", it does not float.
- Personality and traits: enthusiastic and lively, with persistence and "madness" towards nature. Hidden in the running is the desire to "take root". What he collects is not only specimens, but also traces of life.
Shen Xianbai (tea keeper)
- The meaning of the name: wrapped in "the smudge and waiting of tea smoke". "Bi" is the soothing feeling of tea slowly dizzying, like the calmness with which he wipes the tea cup and turns it clockwise three times, waiting for the water to boil from "fish eye" to "crab eye"; "white" is the purity and tolerance of tea, like how he can always catch Lin Shepeng's "madness" - when the other party rushes in with a muddy specimen, he only passes the cloth and says, "wipe your hands first, the tea is just warm." The surname Shen + "Yanbai" is like a deep pool of water, which can hold all the waves when it is calm. It is "quiet" but not cold, and has its own warmth.
- Personality and traits: Calm and relaxed, has his own rhythm in doing things, bears the turmoil of the outside world with gentleness and tolerance, and guards the teahouse with a gentleness of waiting.
The bond between two people
The grassy smell of "" collides with the "white" tea smoke feeling, which is exactly the "vegetation meets tea smoke, the sound and sound are both harmonious". When he bursts in with the fragrance of grass leaves, it is the warmth of "I will pick the spring for you to see"; when he hands a cup of tea, it is the tenderness of "I will cook the time for you to wait". Plants and trees need to be refreshed by tea, and tea and cigarettes need to be tasted by plants and trees. Just like them - without each one, they all lack a complete taste.
