The Assassin's Creed Shadows Tea Ceremony quest is one of your first major hurdles, tasking you with infiltrating a gathering of wealthy Sakai individuals to uncover the identity of the Golden Teppo. If you're not playing in canon mode, you'll have to correctly respond and interact with the ceremony goers so as not to blow your cover.
Not to spoil the fun, but there's not actually much at stake here. You'd think you'd have to blend in perfectly to avoid being found out, especially since there was a whole quest to learn the proper etiquette and pick the perfect kosode before getting to this moment. Even if you get the answers wrong though, the worst you'll get is a dirty look.
