Tang Xin attaches great importance to today's party. In order to better entertain Chen Xi, Tang Xin started preparing a few days in advance. Not only Tang Xin, but Tang's mother and aunt also took this matter very seriously, because after all, this was the first time Tang Xin invited good friends to her home, not counting Jiang Wenbai, who was a relative and friend.

Chen Xi's mother will send Chen Xi here in the morning, and then have lunch at Tang's house at noon. In the afternoon, Chen Xi's brother will come to take her back. Calculated, this time is a bit short. Tang Xin has a lot of things that she wants to share with her little sisters, but there is not enough time, so she wants to know how to entertain Chen Xi well and leave a deep impression on her?

After thinking for a long time, Tang Xin suddenly remembered that when she was a rich wife in her previous life, she would often go to hotels or clubs to have afternoon tea with her so-called sisters. In fact, it’s really boring to call it afternoon tea. Generally speaking, it can be divided into two types. One is to simply show off your wealth, showing off what jewelry or bags your husband bought for you. It’s really very childish, but you still have to do it. It was said very unintentionally, which is a test of acting skills. Others have to cooperate with a few compliments, but in fact, I can't help but scold it, it's just two words - hypocrisy.

The other is a more high-end game, where ladies gather together to build relationships, exchange information, test each other's intentions, and learn some business information and gossip. This kind of gathering is the most tiring, and every word others say is She had to think over and over again what she said, and she had to consider what she said to others again and again. I really admired those ladies. Seeing how they handled things with ease, Tang Xin could only admire them.

Let's have a small afternoon tea. Tang Xin told her aunt and mother her thoughts. Unexpectedly, her aunt was quite understanding of this.

Afternoon tea is one of the Western dining methods. The meal time is between lunch and dinner. It originated in the 17th century in Britain and has been a tradition in the UK for many years.

"When I was studying in the UK, local classmates would often invite us to their homes for afternoon tea. Later, we would often choose a coffee shop to drink afternoon tea there. My favorite pastry with afternoon tea is It's a bit too sweet. The most delicious ones are the biscuits and cakes baked by my classmates' mothers. I can still recall the taste." My aunt said, narrowing her eyes slightly, as if she was remembering when she was young.

"So, when I was studying abroad in Suzhou, I had almost the same habit, but it was later, usually around three o'clock in the afternoon. I also drank tea and had desserts." Tang's mother also thought of the time when she and Tang's father were studying abroad.

"But these two children can't drink tea and coffee. Snacks are easy to buy. I can buy them all when I go to the department store tomorrow. What do the children want to drink?" Tang's father also joined in.

"Dad, you can buy Arctic Ocean for your sister and the others. It is stored in the well. It tastes so cool when you drink it now." My brother suggested.

"I take it you want to drink, right? You see, my sister didn't even say a word." Tang's father didn't give his son face and directly exposed his little thoughts.

The elder brother who was told that he was thinking about it smiled, indeed, it is so comfortable to drink some cold drinks on this hot day in July.

Tang Xin originally wanted to prepare some iced sour plum soup. There was a box with dried fruits at home. I will prepare some preserved fruits, dates, honey and osmanthus nectar, and then prepare some Chinese snacks. A proper Chinese afternoon tea has a sense of ritual, but when my brother said this, it completely changed the taste. But Tang Xin then thought about it, and who of the normal children today would like the classical style? That is to say, he had been in modern times for a long time, and his mind would unconsciously bring back the style of the previous life, which he thought was good. They simply can't understand it now, and they may not be able to appreciate it.

Therefore, Tang Xin decided to adopt her brother's suggestion. After all, she was a native child of this era, so she still had the same ideas.

"I also think brother's idea is good. Dad is buying some dried fruits. Brother, please don't go out to play that day and help me entertain Chen Xi. You all know each other anyway." Tang Xin invited her brother.

In fact, Tang Zhanbo was not very willing to play with his sister and the others. After all, he was older and he was really not interested in the games played by little girls at all. However, when his sister said there were so many delicious foods, he immediately changed. idea.

"Okay, no problem. As your brother, I should help you entertain the guests." The elder brother said with a high profile.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, brother." Looking at my brother's arrogant expression, I really wanted to tease him, but I was afraid that he would be embarrassed. Oh, it's so hard to bear it.

Everyone in the family has arranged a division of labor. Aunt Tang is responsible for helping Tang Xin prepare the supplies needed to entertain Chen Xi, Mom Tang is responsible for cleaning the house, Dad Tang is responsible for shopping, Sister Zheng is responsible for lunch and a few Chinese snacks in the afternoon, and brother It is mobile personnel who can move wherever they are needed.

Just like that, while everyone was busy, Chen Xi finally arrived.

On this day, around eight o'clock in the morning, there was a knock on the door of the Tang family. Tang Xin ran over to open the door and saw that it was really Chen Xi. The two good friends hadn't seen each other for more than half a month. As soon as they met, Chen Xi hugged Tang Xin. He kept shouting, "Tang Xin, I miss you so much."

Tang's mother and brother also followed to the door. Today, Tang's mother specially went to class with her colleagues. Although her aunt and Sister Zheng were at home, Chen Xi's mother was here today, so she, as Tang Xin's parent, had to show up.

"Chen Xi, let go of your hand. Why are you showing your true colors before you even get to the house? What did your mother tell you at home? You don't look like a girl at all." Chen Xi's mother really couldn't stand her daughter's performance.

"Mother Chen Xi, please don't say that. Children are like this. It's better to be more lively. I just like Chen Xi's character. It complements our Tang Xin. Our Tang Xin is just too quiet." Tang's mother walked out from behind. Say hello to Chen Xi’s mother.

"Hello, Tang Xin's mother. I'm a few years older than you. My surname is Wu. You can just call me Sister Wu. These two children are so good and they skipped a grade together. There will be many opportunities for us to get in touch in the future. This is for the children. Let’s have some fruit and let the kids have a taste.” Chen Xi’s mother handed the bag in her hand to Tang’s mother.

"Sister Wu, you are so polite. We have everything at home." Tang Ma declined.

"It's not something expensive, it's just some new peaches brought by relatives at home for you to try. Don't be polite, I even asked my Chen Xi to come over to your place to eat and drink. Otherwise I would be embarrassed." Chen Xi's mother explained.

"Then thank you, Sister Wu. Please don't call me Tang Xin's mother. My surname is Chen. You can just call me Xiao Chen. You are right. These two children are so good. We will have more contact in the future. It's here." Tang's mother had no choice but to accept the peaches brought by Chen Xi's mother.

Tang Xin also quickly took Chen Xi off her body and said hello to Chen Xi's mother. "Hello, aunt."

Chen Xi's mother is in her forties, older than Tang's mother. She has short hair and is wearing a gray Lenin suit. She looks very capable at first glance.

She greeted Tang Xin with a smile and said to Tang's mother. "My child, because he is the youngest, has been spoiled since he was a child. I need you to be more considerate."

Chen Xi was actually a little embarrassed when he saw Tang Ma and the others coming out. He just didn't know what to do for a while, so he kept relying on Tang Xin. This time, his mother said so, and it would be too rude for him not to speak.

"Hello Aunt Chen, I'm Chen Xi. I'm just too happy to see Tang Xin for a long time. I'm actually quite well-behaved." Chen Xi greeted Tang's mother with some embarrassment.

"Hey, Chen Xi is here, come in quickly." At this time, my brother ran over from the courtyard.

"Is this Tang Xin's brother? Chen Xi often mentions Tang Xin's brother when he comes home, saying that he is a brother who loves his sister very much. He also keeps complaining to her brother that her brother is not considerate." Chen Xi's mother said with a smile.

"Zhan Bo, why don't you come and say hello? This is Aunt Wu, Chen Xi's mother." Tang's mother hurriedly greeted her son.

"Hello Aunt Wu, taking care of your sister is your duty as a brother. Your brother is supposed to take care of your sister." My brother really thinks that taking care of his sister is a natural thing. He is his cousin at home, although he can't tell it at ordinary times. , but everyone loves their sister very much. After all, they only have one sister.

Her brother's words were met with praise from Chen Xi's mother. She could see that Tang Xin's brother really believed from the bottom of his heart that it was natural for him to take care of his sister, and it was not just a humble excuse. She expressed her gratitude to the Tang family. The tutor is even more satisfied. It will only be better for her daughter to have a good relationship with such a family.

"Okay, just drop the kids off and have fun. I have to go to work. I'll leave you alone."

After Chen Xi's mother finished speaking, she told Chen Xi a few words and then left.

After Chen Xi's mother left, Tang Xin quickly led Chen Xi into the house. Tang's mother looked at it and it was almost time. She told Tang Xin and her brother to entertain Chen Xi well and then went to work.
