Tracing back to the source, the tea party is a meeting of a period. Even if the same host and guest can hold tea parties repeatedly, they can't reproduce what happened at this moment. Every tea party really comes once in a blue moon for me. Therefore, the host should do everything possible to be affectionate and sincere, and there should be no negligence.
