Then, someone silently approached Li Jieyue and Bai Yueyue, each holding a cup of tea.
Ah, I know how to do that. I lifted the saucer and pinched the tea stem, just like Li Jieyue taught me. Even Bai Yueyue herself was quite satisfied with her movements. See? I still have a certain style, even if it's just an act.
Li Jieyue nodded gently.
"Thank you," Bai Yueyue said with a smile.
Then, Bai Yueyue noticed that Zhao Shuli's expression seemed to become quite frightening for a moment.
No, no, I shouldn't have made any mistakes. My back is straight, my posture is dignified, my smile is a smile, and my hand holding the teacup is fine!
Seeing that Bai Yueyue's eyes had become somewhat panicked, Zhao Shuli bowed to Li Jieyue before speaking, "Madam, please allow me to point out Miss's mistake."
"Granted," Li Jieyue said with a smile.
Mother, although you hid it very well, I noticed it, look at your panicked eyes!
"Please also ask that you, Madam, control your emotions and not worry about the young lady."
Oh, so Zhao Shuli noticed too! But that wasn't a worried look on her face! It was the look of someone trying to cover up something they'd done wrong!
“Young Miss, although I know that you are tolerant and kind, please do not apologize or thank the servants. These are unnecessary and will make them think that you are easy to bully.”
Huh? Although Bai Yueyue really wanted to look surprised, she managed to restrain herself and could only give Li Jieyue a puzzled look.
But when Bai Yueyue saw Li Jieyue's seemingly calm and collected gaze as she examined the tea set, which was actually evasive, she realized that her mother had forgotten to teach her these things!
It's not really Li Jieyue's fault, because she hasn't lived this way for a long time.
Although many people in Asia City also live this way, such as the Qin family.
However, last time, because of the presence of Li Jianchuan and Qin Zhenming, who were even less polite than Bai Yueyue, Bai Yueyue's lack of manners did not become particularly obvious.
As for why Li Jianchuan and Qin Zhenming could disregard etiquette, it was because at seventy, they could do as they pleased.
The real reason was that both of them had fought on the battlefield and had distinguished themselves in battle. Therefore, even if others knew that what they were doing was against etiquette, they would only say that the two elders had returned to their roots.
However, because of Bai Zhenhao, Bai Yueyue's family is more accustomed to a relaxed lifestyle. Therefore, Li Jieyue only just realized that she had forgotten to tell Bai Yueyue these little details.
It's okay, I'm Bai Yueyue's mom. It's your fate as a daughter to patch up your mother's mistakes. So Yueyue, don't blame me, it's all your dad's fault.
