The Origin of Longjing Tea

Once upon a time, there lived an old woman next to Longjing Village. There are more than ten tea trees around where she lives. There are many businessmen and passers-by coming and going on the road here, so the old man set a table at the door and poured tea for passers-by to stop and have a drink. Slowly, the story spread. But one winter, the weather was very cold, and the tea trees froze to death, so it was impossible to make tea, but passers-by stopped to have a rest. One of the passers-by knew the situation and told the old man to buy a broken stone mortar. The old man didn't want money, but the man left with it. After the second year, the tea tree was revived, and passers-by could drink tea again. This is the origin of Longjing tea.
