Chapter 526: The Son of the County Magistrate (6)_1
Yang Ruxin nodded without saying anything further.
"This is..." Yang Mancang looked towards Yang Ruxin.
Since someone had previously spoken about Yang Ruxin adopting an illegitimate child, Gu Qingheng had Feng Family come forward to clarify matters, explaining that Dabao and Xiaobao were distant relatives and their frequent play with Yang Family’s children was purely coincidental.
Fang Tianze, due to his frail health, had stayed in Yang Family’s courtyard for several days, but rarely appeared before strangers. At most, he would stroll by the riverbank with Sanni and the others, choosing times when no outsiders were around. Consequently, not many villagers knew of him and even if someone had seen him, they assumed he was a relative of Gu Family, given that the members of Gu Family were all striking in appearance. Moreover, since the day before yesterday, Dao Xuzi had started adding medicine baths to his routine. His weak constitution made him sleepy after the baths, leaving him no time to step outside the house.
Therefore, Yang Mancang had only seen Zhou Xiao and her siblings but had never met Fang Tianze.
"Village Chief, he is the eldest son of our County Magistrate Fang Tianze, Young Master Fang," Yang Ruxin introduced, "If we report to the authorities, just sending a message to his father will ensure that the great Magistrate Fang will be here today, saving us a trip to the County Governor’s Office to beat the drum..."
The moment Yang Mancang heard this, he immediately showed a respectful demeanor and even bowed slightly, "Young Master Fang..."
"No need for such courtesy, Village Chief, I am merely Ruxin’s... friend..." Fang Tianze smiled, "I am the younger one here, you flatter me too much with your gesture..."
Yang Mancang immediately smiled and relaxed, knowing that the County Magistrate was like a parent official in his jurisdiction, the chief of Baihua County. Who would dare to provoke him? But since he addressed him as uncle following Ruxin, that indicated he wasn’t putting on airs.
