Chapter 107

“Your wedding?”

Patricia seemed thoughtful for a few seconds before answering. “The reception itself was the same as a western wedding, but we had a tea ceremony prior to it.”

“Tea ceremony?”

Patricia nodded. “Jonah and I had to offer tea to our families, starting with the most senior. Generally, Chinese families tend to finish up with the male side of the family before starting with the female side. In our case, we decided to combine them all. We started with Jonah’s parents, followed by my parents and uncles and aunts from both sides of the family, and then James and Jeremy. Last but not least, my older brothers and sisters. I received plenty of gold necklaces and bracelets along with money inside the red packets and good wishes in exchange for the tea. Not a bad deal at all.”

Joshua grinned when Patricia winked at him. “I bet. Anything else I should know about?”
