The old master didn't have many other hobbies.
Living at the old estate, he didn't have much company. His days were usually spent drinking tea and tending to his birds to pass the time.
He chatted with Chloe Sinclair and learned that her family also enjoyed tea, so he decided to give her the Da Hong Pao he had treasured for many years.
He was getting old. Although he loved tea, drinking too much of it kept him awake at night.
Now, he could only drink a little on occasion and was slowly trying to quit.
Chloe Sinclair knew in her heart that the old master's canister of Da Hong Pao was no ordinary tea.
She still remembered when she had her homecoming visit after marrying into the family, the old master had told her to bring the Da Hong Pao with her.
It wasn't until her father mentioned that canister of Da Hong Pao later that she realized it was priceless, its value beyond what money could measure.
