WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Hold your horses, stop crowding me—we'll handle your money, but let's do this properly.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Hospitality Before Business (先喝茶后办事)

In grassroots Chinese interactions, handling tense or crowded administrative matters often begins with calming everyone down through hospitality gestures (e.g., offering water/tea) before taking transactions.
