Refuse seven times, accept one (food, drinks, gifts)



Refuse seven times, accept one (food, drinks, gifts)

No self-respecting guest, once in a Chinese house, will immediately accept everything that is offered. No matter how hungry, thirsty, or receiving a gift, strict Chinese etiquette prohibits any manifestations even remotely resembling greed or impatience, so don't forget to politely decline a couple of times.

 

Don't take the first " No thanks" seriously

 

Chinese people automatically refuse food and drinks several times - even if they really feel hungry or thirsty. Never take " No thanks" said once literally. Even if the refusal is received twice, we offer it again.
