Chapter 103 Magistrate Chai

Zhao Hanzhang did not plan to meet with the magistrate of Shangcai County in the near future. Firstly, she was still observing filial piety, and secondly, she had not yet established a foothold in Shangcai County.

But the county magistrate specially sent a post to invite them, no, to invite Fu Tinghan, so she had to go out to meet him.

In the past, I had only heard in the library that Professor Fu from the Department of Mathematics was handsome, did well in class, and was gentle and polite to others. But when I got here, I realized that gentleness and politeness also have another meaning, which is coldness and alienation.

This Professor Fu is indifferent to everything. When someone talks to him, he will reply politely; when no one talks to him, he can stay alone for a day and will not take the initiative to talk to anyone.

With such a personality, he might not take it to heart if others bully him, so Zhao Hanzhang felt that Professor Fu could not go to the meeting alone, and she had to follow him.

Moreover, this manor belongs to her, and the county magistrate came to her door at this time, probably because they have been a bit harsh in recruiting people recently.

Fu Tinghan was sitting in the car, thinking with his eyes lowered, and moving his fingers on his knees, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zhao Hanzhang held his chin and looked at him. He remembered the young man he saw at the gate of the city. His face was sharp and angular, and his whole body had a cold temperament, but his face was a little panicked at that time.

Things that I had never thought of before, now seem to have traces when I think about them again.

Fu Tinghan calculated the formula he wanted, and after writing it down in his mind, he raised his eyes and met Zhao Hanzhang's eyes.

He was stunned for a moment, his ears turned red, and then he wanted to look away. Thinking that something was wrong, he turned back to stare at her.

After watching for a while, he stretched out his hand to wave in front of her eyes and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Zhao Hanzhang came back to his senses, stared at his face and said, "I'm thinking about what Professor Fu will look like as an adult."

Fu Tinghan was stunned for a moment and then said: "Although I don't remember much myself, I should be able to roughly draw it."

Zhao Hanzhang's eyes widened, "You actually forgot your appearance? Is it caused by time travel?"

"...No," Fu Tinghan said: "I rarely look in the mirror, and it is difficult for people to completely replicate their own appearance. Because they rarely see it, they ignore many details. Don't you know?"

"I don't know." She thought she didn't know what she looked like as an adult because she was blind. "I clearly remember what I looked like before I went blind."

"Really?" Fu Tinghan asked: "When you think back, is the self that comes to mind in a certain photo, or is it the self who looks in the mirror at a certain moment?"

Zhao Hanzhang opened her mouth and was speechless for a long time, because the clearest self in her mind was the self in her junior high school graduation photo, and the self she recalled the most was looking at herself in the mirror, but the person in the mirror was very blurry. She couldn't even remember the specific facial features.

Fu Tinghan turned away and looked out the window, "Few people will remember what they look like, but they will definitely remember the appearance of the person they meet most and want to see most."

"Professor Fu can draw, but can he draw me as an adult?" Zhao Hanzhang said: "Speaking of which, I have never seen what I will look like when I grow up, and I don't know if I have grown bad or not."

"No," Fu Tinghan said, "She is very beautiful."

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him with a smile.

Fu Tinghan's face turned red, and he managed not to look away. He nodded to her to show that he was not lying.

The carriage stopped and Tinghe opened the curtain, "Sanniang, Mr. Fu Dalang, we are here."

Zhao Hanzhang withdrew his gaze, supported Tinghe's hand and got out of the car. After standing firm, he turned around and extended his hand to Fu Tinghan, who was bending over and walking out.

After a pause, Fu Tinghan put his hand on hers and stepped on the stool to get out of the car.

Fu An stretched out his hand:...

It always feels weird, but I can't put my finger on what's wrong.

Zhao Hanzhang raised his head and glanced at the plaque - Chenji Restaurant.

During the war years, this restaurant was still bustling with people even though the street was somewhat depressed. It seems that the food in this restaurant is delicious.

Also, there seem to be a lot of wealthy people in Shangcai County.

Zhao Hanzhang and Fu Tinghan said: "Let's go."

The magistrate of Shangcai County and his staff are already waiting in the restaurant. They are on the second floor. The tables are separated by screens. It is elegant, breathable and spacious.

When the county magistrate heard that Zhao's carriage had arrived, he got up and went down to greet it. When he reached the stairs, he bumped into a group of four people going upstairs.

Zhao Hanzhang walked in the front, and Fu Tinghan was a little behind her, but just at the same height as her.

The county magistrate looked at Zhao Hanzhang in surprise, then at Fu Tinghan, and finally couldn't help but look at the staff.

The staff was also stunned for a moment, and after regaining consciousness, they immediately nodded to the county magistrate.

Before the county magistrate had time to speak, Zhao Hanzhang had already opened his mouth and said with a smile, "Is it Magistrate Chai?"

Magistrate Chai nodded blankly.

Zhao Hanzhang raised his hands and bowed, "My wife, Sanniang Zhao, is here to pay homage to the county prince."

The guess was confirmed. Magistrate Chai opened his mouth. It took him a while to find his voice and said sideways, "Young lady, please take a seat."

Zhao Hanzhang asked Magistrate Chai to sit down first. After he sat down, she and Fu Tinghan sat down cross-legged. She was sitting opposite him.

Magistrate Chai:...

Zhao Hanzhang tilted his head and asked his staff to sit down as well, "Sir, let's sit down together and talk."

Chang Ning looked at Magistrate Chai.

Magistrate Chai nodded slightly. He also felt that he needed guidance from his staff.

The staff also sat down cross-legged, just face to face with Fu Tinghan.

The moment he sat down, Chang Ning seemed to understand what Zhao Hanzhang meant.

His eyes slid back and forth between Fu Tinghan and Zhao Hanzhang. You can't blame him for overthinking, Zhao Hanzhang was too obvious.

It seems that Zhao Hanzhang has been taking the lead since entering the restaurant.

Chang Ning kept looking at Fu Tinghan, and saw that his face was indifferent. He really couldn't tell anything, so he could only give up and took the initiative to greet him: "It's been more than two months since Zhao Sanniang returned to her hometown, right?"

"Yes," Zhao Hanzhang looked at the uneasy Magistrate Chai across from him, and sighed slightly: "Originally, I was supposed to come to see the magistrate, but I just kept my filial piety at home and couldn't come rashly, so I delayed it. Unexpectedly, I was so tired that the county king came to invite me in person."

Magistrate Chai said hurriedly: "I'm not tired, I'm not tired. We have nothing to do. I just heard that the husband of the Fu family is studying here, so I sent an invitation. I just wanted to discuss the meaning of the book with Mr. Fu. It doesn’t mean anything else.”

Fu Tinghan looked up at Zhao Hanzhang, a little surprised in his eyes, and couldn't help asking her, have you threatened others before?

Zhao Hanzhang glanced back at him, is she that kind of person?

Since arriving in Shangcai County, she has always been honest and responsible, okay?

Zhao Hanzhang saw that he was so nervous that he was sweating on his forehead, and felt that he could not get straight to the point. What if the county magistrate was frightened?

So I followed his topic and asked, "I wonder which book the county gentleman wants to discuss with Mr. Fu Dalang? I've been reading a book recently. Maybe it's predestined."

There is another chapter, but it will be very late, so everyone should go to bed first
