Have you guys noticed Cantones bending their fingers when taking tea?
Tapping the table is the polit way to say thank you for having your teacup filled.Bending the finger symbolises kowtowing or bowing as a sign for respect.
the legend comes from the time of Qianlong, which is one of the greatest emperor in the last dynasty.
He had gone out with his retainers to tour the country incognito.
When he poured tea or give some food to some of his retainers.Then culdn't bow without reavel thire idenity.
