How long have I known the Yan family in Anxi? Hard to remember, but probably no less than 15 years. There was a year this dog was a pup. As far as he’s concerned, I am also an old family member he comes to greet happily when I arrive. His job is clear. He guards the house. If you ask him to guard a pile of tea, he would do that too, without budging even once the entire day.
When Mr. Yan comes home, he guards his bedroom door instead of the house. He knows every single villager, and God forbid you are a new customer. You won’t be able to get out of the car.
Today, I scored the family heirloom Tieguanyin from 1996. Guess I’ve been with them long enough now.
