Huo Sining couldn't help but sigh upon hearing this; during her time with Zhou Shitao, a phrase he often mentioned was, "Those who know antiquity will never be destitute, but those who are obsessed with it will surely be impoverished."
Previously, Huo Sining didn't understand, but now she deeply grasped the meaning of this saying.
Antiques are certainly precious, but in this world, there are many other valuable things besides antiques.
Elder Wu liked antiques but wasn't obsessed with collecting them.
He was willing to sell a painting he had treasured for over twenty years just to save his granddaughter's life.
Compared to those collectors who disregard family ties for the sake of their collections, Elder Wu was more deserving of admiration, no wonder the man in traditional attire went to such lengths to help Elder Wu.
