"I've come to pay my respects to Mr. Fang, and I dare not be disrespectful."
Gan Yu set down his bamboo basket, posed as a disciple paying respects, and stood aside. Only after a long while did he ask, "What book is Mr. Fang reading?"
"Oh, it's just a collection of local tales, named 'Record of Oddities'... It's a miscellaneous record. You need to focus on your studies for the Imperial Examination, so it's better to just read the Taoism Scriptures."
Fang Xi picked up the tea cup beside him, took a sip of the coarse tea, and instructed.
This coarse tea was just average, casually made by the markets, but it held a unique charm of the wild.
"Mr. Fang's instructions are right."
Gan Yu bowed to accept the teaching.
"When courtesy is extended, something is sought... I already know the purpose of your visit."
