Chapter 857 Mandarin Ducks Playing in the Water 1
What gift should I give when visiting a friend's house?
After returning from the hot spring, Feng Qingxue has been thinking about this question. She didn't hear Xibao calling her several times.
Seeing Xibao looking at Feng Qingxue angrily, Lu Jiang hugged the sleeping Fubao and smiled, "What's so difficult about this? We can give whatever we have, as long as it doesn't touch the taboos of our compatriots."
Feng Qingxue quickly came up with an idea after hearing this.
Basang Zhuoma is a girl, and girls love beauty, so it's better to give her skin care products.
Although some of Feng Qingxue's skin care products such as lotions and creams are squeezed into vanishing cream bottles to conceal their identities, it doesn't mean that she doesn't buy contemporary skin care products such as Ya Shuang vanishing cream and clam oil.
If she doesn't buy them, sooner or later others will doubt her inexhaustible vanishing cream.
So Feng Qingxue prepared two bottles of Ya Shuang Snow Cream, two bottles of Friendship Snow Cream, several boxes of clam oil, a bottle of shavings water, two bars of soap for Basang Zhuoma, and two precious books of the old chief.
She had been living in fear recently, and she bought a lot of the old chief's selected works as soon as they were published and sent to the troops.
Using the remaining time, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue taught the children etiquette, especially not to look around when visiting Tibetan compatriots, not to point the soles of the feet at people, not to spit, clap hands, etc.
"Mom, I am very good, everyone likes me very much." Xi Bao was full of confidence.
Although Fu Bao was handsome and cute, sweet-mouthed and clever, Xi Bao could say more. In front of outsiders, she spit out polite words one after another without interruption. As expected, when she arrived at Basang Zhuoma's house, Xi Bao was the most popular.
Basang Zhuoma's family was very enthusiastic. As soon as Lu Jiang's family of four arrived, they presented a snow-white Hada.
Hada is the most precious gift in their tribe.
It is about 20 to 30 centimeters wide, Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue's is about two meters long, and the two children's is about one meter long, made of silk.
With long Hada hanging around their necks, Xibao and Fubao thanked Basang Zhuoma's family sweetly.
The other party didn't understand, but it didn't mean they couldn't feel it.
First offer Hada, then offer wine, barley wine.
When toasting, the host dipped his finger in the wine and flicked it three times, and also grabbed a little barley from the grain bucket and threw it into the air three times. The etiquette was very detailed and particular, which made the two children look surprised.
Because Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue had taught the children in advance, their politeness was well received by Basang Zhuoma's family.
Basang Zhuoma lives in a polyandrous family. Her mother is called Baima, which means lotus, and her father is called Tsering, which means longevity. He is the eldest brother among Baima's husbands. Baima's other three husbands are Tsering's younger brothers. They each have children, but the most favored one is Basang Zhuoma, who has just come of age and is pursued by many young people in the tribe.
Feng Qingxue presented the gifts she brought and told Basang Zhuoma what they were and how to use them. Basang Zhuoma, who was dressed up, immediately felt like she had found a treasure and smiled happily, "Thank you, Xue."
Basang Zhuoma also kept her promise and treated Lu Jiang's family with mutton.
Looking at the mutton with a tuft of white hair, which should be the piece of meat with the tail under the spine, Feng Qingxue was flattered. She looked up some information yesterday and knew that this meant good luck and would be presented to the most distinguished guests at the banquet.
Obviously, Feng Qingxue was regarded as the most distinguished guest by Basang Zhuoma and her family, not the head of the family, Lu Jiang.
