Love tea first, respect father-in-law or mother-in-law

Generally speaking, if you like to drink tea, you should respect your father-in-law first and then your mother-in-law.

When serving tea, you should take this opportunity to show your humility and respect to the guests. The standard tea service procedure is: enter the living room with tea tray in both hands. First put the tea tray on the coffee table or standby table near the guest, then hold the cup holder with your right hand, stick it on the cup holder with your left hand, and hand the cup upward from the left back side of the guest. After the teacup is put away, the ears of the teacup should face outwards. If you use a teacup without a cup holder, you should also hold the teacup in your hand.

Of course, if there is only one kind of tea, you must be realistic and make it clear. Don't be too polite. If the guests point out the tea varieties they don't have, it will be difficult to step down.
