A gift is necessary when one is invited to visit friends in China. After greetings, the gift should be passed immediately to the host. Remember that usually Chinese people will not open the gift in front of the person who gives it. To show the respect, it may be necessary to explain what the gift is. The host usually makes full preparations by carefully tidying up the house and cooking a lot of delicious dishes. Although the meal is well prepared, the host may say to the guest politely, “My preparation is not enough, please excuse me for my poor treat.” As a guest, you should make the host believe that there is plenty to eat by praising the food.
After dinner, the host usually serve tea and fruit. They are popular snacks. When the guests are about to leave, the host may still politely ask them to stay. They don’t have to take it seriously and they can try to find a good time to leave. This doesn’t mean that leaving early is always a good idea because the host may feel that the guests are not satisfied with the treat. Finding the right time to leave depends on the situation.
