Chapter 2177: Tea Ceremony
When etiquette were performed well, it always looked pleasing to the eyes.
This was what Old Madam Long felt when she saw Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua. Their
upbringing and etiquette were done very well that it made people feel amazed when they saw their way of bringing themselves.
"Grandma, Father," Long Qian Xing called out. "The tea?"
"Yes, yes." Old Madam Long laughed and nodded. The tea ceremony equipment had been prepared on the side for Nan Hua to start.
Looking at the familiar equipment, Nan Hua blinked her eyes and stepped forward to start. She has long been familiar with the process of making tea due to Nan Si Qiao's teaching ever since she was young.
The steps were still imprinted in her mind.
From the rinsed the teapot and teacups before she heated some water. Her move when she prepared them was not slow but it was filled with elegance as if coming out of the painting. Removing the water, and so on, Nan Hua continued to proceed as she had been taught in the past. Every steps flowed like water without stopping and the picture looked extremely gorgeous.
Long Ao Ming, Long Qian Xing's father, looked at Nan Hua in front of him.
After hearing from his mother that Nan Hua was someone who had fought on the frontline for a long period of time, Long Ao Ming's impression of Nan Hua was someone valiant and tough.
But looking at her current appearance.
Only elegance and demure could fit the description.
Her petite body showed none of the toughness a soldier usually showed. She looked extremely soft and was even better than many other women in terms of etiquette and art ceremony.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Rather than the men's etiquette that showed their toughness and valiance, it was the women's etiquette that showed elegance and softness but still firm and proper.
The contrasting image in his mind made Long Ao Ming sighed secretly.
But at the same time, she was not a bad person.
At least, in Old Madam Long, Nan Hua is a good girl. Besides, Old Madam Long appreciated someone who was smart and capable compared to someone who was too naive and stupid. Because those who were stupid wouldn't be able to survive in a high status and big family like this.
So even though those who were innocent and naive were also pretty good in a sense, but Old Madam Long preferred someone like Nan Hua for her grandson.
"Right, Mother, the relatives from Father's family are also coming to the Capital City," Long Ao Ming reminded.
Old Master Long has several brother and sisters, but they all have their own aspiration and didn't have much interaction with him in the end. After all, everyone has their own path in their lives and it was impossible for siblings to help each other for their entire life.
Not to mention, Old Master Long pursued the path of military and spent most of his time on the frontline. There was not much time for him to reunite with these siblings and cousins of his who came.
It was Old Madam Long who dealt with them.
After Old Master Long's death many years ago, these people clearly stayed further away from the Long Family.
Because they felt that without the Old Master Long, the Long Family under Old Madam Long
was nothing.
Long Ao Ming hadn't grown up at that time.
And his own action later on made many people from the Long Family who were distant with
them felt pessimistic.
Thus, they stayed away.
Who would have thought that later on, the two father and son would make great name on the
battlefield.
At this time, it was already too late to repair their relationship.
