Chapter 382 Are We So Close?
I understand. He doesn't care about the requests made by my parents, as long as I am satisfied.
Although I don’t know whether my mother will take the opportunity to ask for a dowry for Deng Sisi, Xiao Shiqiu will not give it as long as I don’t agree.
My dad was very satisfied when he heard this. "The water is boiling. Let's have some tea first. There's no rush for Shuyao and Mengmeng. We will be a family in the future, so we can talk slowly."
Well, we are already a family now. My dad changes roles very quickly.
"How about trying this tea?" My father poured a cup and handed it to Xiao Shiqiu as if he was presenting a treasure.
Xiao Shiqiu took the cup with both hands and praised it: "As white as jade and as thin as paper, this fine white porcelain is really good. It seems that the craftsmanship is quite old."
It was then that I noticed that the wall of the teacup was extremely thin and slightly transparent. It was made of Jingdezhen fine white porcelain, which my father usually did not want to take out to entertain guests.
I also took a cup, but I don't know much about tea. Looking at the golden tea soup, I couldn't tell what kind of tea it was or what was so good about it.
Xiao Shiqiu picked up the teacup, looked at it, and smelled it carefully. "Hmm, uncle, this tea is really good. It has a distinct golden ring and a rich floral and fruity aroma. It is the best Jin Jun Mei."
My dad instantly became interested when he heard him say that. "Haha, good tea should be given to people who understand it. It seems Shiqiu knows a lot about tea."
Shiqiu? I almost spit out the tea I just drank.
My dad really doesn't treat Xiao Shiqiu as an outsider!
Is their relationship already so mature?
Xiao Shiqiu struck while the iron was hot and said modestly, "No, no, I don't really know much about tea, but I just like drinking tea.
I don't know what kind of tea Uncle likes to drink, so I brought some of the ones he usually drinks."
He called out to the outside of the teahouse, "Xiao Xie, bring up the gifts for your uncle and aunt."
"Yes, Mr. Xiao." Xie Chao's voice was loud and clear, and one could tell at the first moment that he was a retired soldier.
Xie Chao and the other three came up with gift boxes, first of which was tea, a box of Mingqian Longjing, a box of aged Pu'er, and a box of Wuyishan Dahongpao.
My dad's mouth was almost grinning from ear to ear, and my mom looked at him with some disgust with her eyes shining, but she didn't say anything in the end.
Then the second man in black brought out a large box of tea sets, which contained a set of fine purple clay teapots, matched with various large and small cups that looked complicated but not very practical, but my father seemed to like it very much.
Anyway, I just can't understand it. Do you need so many different cups just to drink tea?
The gift box that the person behind took out was obviously smaller, and my mother's attention was attracted to it.
Xiao Shiqiu introduced gracefully: "I don't know what kind of jewelry my aunt likes, but I think gold is more valuable, so I ordered a set of gold jewelry.
Auntie is so beautiful, simple styles are the best to set off her temperament."
When my mother opened the gift box, her expression became noticeably softer. It turns out that there is no woman who doesn't like jewelry.
"This is too expensive, Shiqiu. How can you accept such an expensive gift on your first visit? It really costs you a lot of money."
My mother smiled very reservedly, but she didn't show any intention of refusing.
The fourth man in black was about to come in, but Deng Sisi got there first and entered the tea room.
"Aunt, uncle, why are there so many people at home today?" Deng Sisi looked innocent. After coming in, she sat next to my mother, as if she was my mother's daughter.
After she sat down, she seemed to have just seen me, "Sister, why are you back? Who is this uncle?" She was talking to me, but her eyes were staring at Xiao Shiqiu with surprise in her eyes.
