Throughout the morning, Roque and Henry had been drinking with Winston, and the snack that went with the wine was better than nothing, so it was standard tea time.

Don't look at the UK does not produce tea, but the British love to drink tea, in the 21st century Britain is the world's number one tea consumer, consumption accounts for a quarter of the world's total output, British afternoon tea occupies a very important position in the British catering culture, its importance is second only to dinner and banquets, etiquette requirements are very strict, from clothing, environment, mood to tea, utensils, desserts, etc., there are many rules.

Roque's house is indeed very good, the environment is almost impeccable, Henry and Roque are now friends, and the afternoon tea between the two of them will be conducive to the enhancement of feelings, as for the tea set, don't forget that the previous owner of this house is a smuggler, in other aspects, the smuggler may not dare to show off, but in terms of daily necessities, Roque is sure that Governor Alfred Milner is also on the same level as the previous owner.

"Tsk, Locke, I didn't expect you to use Wedgwood's tea set, you know, you're already on the same level as the royal family." When Henry saw the tea set on the coffee table, his envy for Roque to buy the house for only 100 pounds instantly turned into jealousy and hatred.

Wedgwood was founded in 1759 and is now a supplier of porcelain to the British royal family.

Roque's tea set is an Iris bone china series, which is in line with the perfect British aesthetic, with geometric shapes and textures on the teacups and teapots, which have both the classic and modern geometric fashion of backgammon, which is very suitable for men.

"Don't look at me like that, I don't know how much this tea set is worth, you know, the previous owner was a smuggler, maybe he was the one who smuggled the tea set." Roque didn't care how much this tea set was worth, after drinking a morning of wine, his stomach was empty, and Roque had already started to eat snacks.

Dim sum is an important part of the English Afternoon Tea, which is served on a three-tiered dessert rack, with savoury sandwiches on the first floor, traditional English pastry scones on the second floor, as well as some choux biscuits and chocolates, and a cake or fruit tart on the third floor.

When eating, follow the rule of light to heavy, salty and sweet, and start eating from top to bottom, and Roque eats sandwiches first.

Taste - it's really average, the cheese is a little too much, the meat is a little thick, and the bread is not baked evenly enough, don't expect Zack's mother Anna to be a good cook, if you want to eat well, Roque still has to find a way to hire a chef from the Qing Kingdom, to be honest, Roque has never had a good meal since he came to this era, and the restaurant in the police dormitory is rich in variety and unlimited to be full, don't expect the taste, compared with the Great Chinese cuisine, the British cooking can be called dark cuisine.

Of course, according to the British standard of eating health, many of the cuisines of Greater China are also prepared in a dark way.

The way doesn't matter, the key is delicious, delicious, delicious!

"It's a terrible thing!" Henry didn't bother complaining about Roque's vulgar way of eating, so he picked up the sandwich and began to stuff it.

Stopper, stopper, stopper-

Fill, fill, fill –

Tons, tons, tons –

After making three plates of dim sum and drinking a pot of milk and a pot of black tea, Roque finally felt back to his senses.

Well, the consumption is too great, and it has nothing to do with Ada, it's all Winston's fault.

"Cool, it's been ten years since I came to Cape, and this is the coolest afternoon tea I've ever had." Henry's expression was also satisfied.

"Ten years? I thought you were born in Cape Town. Roque was interested in Henry's past, which helped Roque get to know Henry better.

"How is it possible, I have two older brothers and a younger sister, you know, I am not qualified to inherit the title, so I have to fend for myself, I came to Cape Town ten years ago, first worked in immigration, then joined the army, and then you know." It's clear that Henry was ambushed, and that's a man with a story.

Regarding the succession to the title, this is the tragedy of the second son of all aristocratic families, but there is nothing to complain about either, born into a noble family, they have already taken the advantage, at least until they reach adulthood, they do not have to worry about those so-called "unfair".

"Is your sister pretty?" Roque is also very good sometimes, which is also a common problem of all men, eating in the bowl and looking at the pot, other people's wives are the most beautiful, and their own sons are the best.

", you've got Ada, I warn you, don't beat my sister's idea." Henry doesn't look down on Roque's "second-hand goods" and doesn't mince words about Roque.

"I don't even know if your sister is beautiful!" Roque felt really wronged, if Henry's sister looked like Anna, Roque would roll as far as he could.

Of course, if Henry's sister is beautiful, then Roque doesn't mind having some super-friendship with Henry's sister.

"Ha, don't think about it, you beast, my sister is still in middle school, she's a student of Brighton Rodin, do you know where Brighton Rodin?" Henry has a sense of superiority, and Roque, who was born in the Qing Kingdom, has attended private school for a few days at most, and he definitely doesn't know what Brighton Rodin is.

"Ha, it seems that your family's title is not very good, and you have the ability to send your sister to Eton College?" Roque not only knew about Brighton Rodin School for Girls, but he also knew about Eton College.

Founded in 1885, Brighton Rodding School for Girls is the best girls' secondary school in the UK, on par with the UK's most famous school, Eton College.

"Idiot, Eton College is a boys' school and doesn't accept girls at all." Henry seized the opportunity to mock Roque.

No, isn't the point is, why does Roque, a Chinese who has never been to the UK, actually know about Brighton Rodin Girls' School and Eton College?

Well, Roque really couldn't argue with Henry on this issue.

The only honorary female alumnus of Eton College is Queen Elizabeth, but it's 1899 and the Queen hasn't been born yet.

Attention, it's just "honor".

"Anyway, Henry, how many years have you not been back to England? Is your sister still in school? Roque was a little suspicious, a careless brother would probably not remember what grade his sister was in.

Sure enough, as soon as Roque finished speaking, Henry's mouth grew, and it seemed that Roque was right, and Henry's impression of his sister was still stuck when his sister was in middle school.

As it turned out, some people were casual chatter, and the next morning, Roque met Henry's sister Phyllis.

No wonder Henry didn't tell Roque that his sister was not beautiful, and Roque thought that Henry's sister was unsightly, and it wasn't until Roque met Phyllis that Roque understood that it was indeed reasonable for nobles to constantly improve their genes to some extent.
