Chapter 301: Rampant to the End

"What did you say?" Hearing Lin Yu's words, Jiang Hua stood up and was about to go to Lin Yu.

I apologized for serving tea. Not to mention that his son Jiang Hua would not agree, even Jiang Wei would not agree to do so.

Although the four people who "super tea and apologize" sounds simple, in fact, this is simply an insult.

There are many customs about tea, the most famous one is "to serve tea and see guests". Chinese people have the custom of "to serve tea and see guests", which means that the guest talks with the host. If the talk is almost done, or the host wants to end the conversation, the host will pick up the tea cup, which means "the matter is finished, leave, you will leave." At this time, no matter how reluctant the guest is, he will say goodbye. This is "to serve tea and apologize."

In ancient my country, there was a practice of "sending tea to see guests". When the guests met, the servant offered tea. The host thought that the matter was over, so he picked up the tea cup to treat the guests to tea. When the guest lips touched the tea in the cup, the servant shouted: "sending off the guests" the host stood up to see the guests, and the guest also consciously said goodbye. This practice avoided the embarrassment of the host wanting to end the conversation but not convenient to speak, and the guest wanted to say goodbye but was embarrassed to say it rashly.

The custom of serving tea and seeing off guests originated in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and was not the habit of ordinary people's daily life. Because at that time, the superiors received subordinates and had already finished the formal work, but the subordinates did not know if they had any explanations, so they did not dare to say goodbye at will. The superiors were not convenient to directly issue an order to expel guests, so they raised their cups and the yamen runners next to them shouted: "Send off guests." Then the subordinates said goodbye again. In this way, the etiquette of both parties was relatively complete. According to Zhu

Deshang's "Thirty Years of Experience" records: A newly appointed county magistrate went to pay homage to the governor in the summer, but he could not bring a fan according to etiquette. However, the county magistrate entered the governor's yamen with a folding fan in his hand and waved the fan continuously. Seeing that he was so rude, the governor took the opportunity to take off his hat and wear a wide clothes and lifted up the teacup. Seeing this, the waiters on the left and right immediately shouted "Sending off the guest". When the county magistrate heard this, he quickly held the hat in one hand and the clothes in the other, and retreated in a very embarrassing manner.

This story is funny to read, and it also reflects the prevalent custom in the Qing Dynasty officialdom - "sending tea to see off guests". At that time, subordinates paid their respects to their superiors. Although the superior asked the waiter to make tea, they mostly did not drink it. When the boss raised the tea cup and wanted to drink, it was a sign of "exiting the guest order", and the waiter would immediately shout "sending off guests".

Of course, guests in the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty could drink tea after sitting for a long time, but the boss had to raise his hand and say "invite tea". When the boss drinks first, the subordinates could serve tea and taste it. There are also some specialties when drinking tea, and you should cover the bowl with your hands. If you cover the tea bowl in the bowl and then blow a few sips before drinking it, it is against etiquette. Because this is an action to tell the boss that the tea has not been brewed.

In fact, it is said that the guest comes to the host as a guest. The host serves tea to the guest, but out of politeness, the guest usually talks. When the topic is over, the guest will serve tea and drink water, indicating that there is no topic now, the host will understand it, and the servant shouts to see the guest off. As mentioned earlier, "The host wants to end the conversation but is inconvenient to speak, and the guest wants to say goodbye but is embarrassed to say it rashly."

The times have developed so far that there is no need to be so polite. It is also a matter of treating tea from guests. People do not talk about those things. "Sending tea to send guests" is common in the officialdom of the feudal period.

However, this "apologize for tea" is different from "apologize for tea". "apologize for tea" is actually somewhat similar to "apologize for carrying a thorn", which means that you have made a mistake and ask for punishment, hoping to get the other party to forgive you. You will apologize for guilt on your back, express your willingness to be punished, and also express your apology to others. In this case, as long as you are not avenge of killing your father and having multiple wives, it will generally be exposed. However, from ancient times to the present, only Lian Po has been heard of this person who apologizes for guilt.

This "apologize for tea" is similar to "bearing a thorn and apologizing for guilt". The other party must put his knees on the ground, raise the case and serve the tea respectfully to the other person, and say something to ask the other party for forgiveness. Once the other party takes the tea cup and drinks a sip, the huge trouble will be exposed.

Generally speaking, if someone serves tea and apologizes is a slap in the face, but for other smooth people, why not do such a thing? It's just a kneeling and a lot of pieces of meat. What's the big deal? But it's absolutely impossible for Jiang Wei to accept it. Although this apology for tea can solve the problem, the price is too high. This not only shows the face of his son, but also shows the face of Jiang Wei. If his son really apologizes for this person, then I believe that Jiang Wei will be kicked out of the Hexing Club that day, let alone in public. Even if there are only the two of them, he will never let his son kneel in front of Lin Yu. The price is too high.

If this is the case, then he would rather fight Lin Yu to the death.

"Young man, are you really going to be so excessive?" Jiang Wei looked at Lin Yu and said calmly. No one knew what he was thinking.

"Then let's take the thorn and apologize. This should not be too much." Lin Yu said with a smile.

Farting, what is the difference between apologizing for guilt and serving tea and apologizing? Jiang Wei will never let his Jiang family do this.

"Young man, you are too crazy. Don't treat this place as a mainland. This is Hong Kong." Jiang Wei stared at Lin Yu tightly, his face became more and more gloomy, and his anger became bigger and bigger. The murderous intent in his eyes suddenly appeared. Jiang Hua even looked at Lin Yu with a murderous gaze, wishing he could eat his flesh and drink his blood.

Jiang Wei was very angry. He originally thought that he apologized in a low voice, so the other party would give him some face. Unexpectedly, the other party not only did not give him face, but also wanted to slap him in the face in front of him. How could he not be angry? If possible, Jiang Wei wanted to kill the arrogant young man now, but he couldn't. Not to mention what Mr. Huo reacted after he killed the young man, he didn't know what revenge the Jiang family would get in the future. After all, he still didn't know the identity of this young man.

Hearing Jiang Wei say this, Lin Yu didn't say anything else. He drank the tea in the cup, stood up and said, "Since Boss Jiang disagreed, I have no choice. After saying this, I should go down. After drinking tea for so long, I still want to go down and have a glass of wine."

After saying that, he didn't even look at the Jiang family's father and son, and turned around and walked outside.

Jiang Hua looked at Lin Yu's arrogant back, his teeth were clenched tightly, his face was flushed, and he said loudly: "Dad, let's just kill him directly, let's see how he will be crazy about us?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "pop" sound, Jiang Wei slapped him with his backhand: "Dad, you..."
