Shen Qingqian sighed exaggeratedly, "Afraid! Of course I am afraid, but there are so many injustices in this world? Not least of all me."
She was betting that Liang Cheng wouldn't touch her easily.
How could Liang Cheng's prestige with clear rewards and punishments accumulated over the years in the Northern Hubei Army be destroyed by a little girl like her?
Shen Qingqian and Liang Cheng looked at each other, not avoiding his gaze.
I don't know how long it took, but Liang Cheng suddenly said, "Go back."
Shen Qingqian suddenly felt relieved and asked with a smile, "What about the ten acres of land you just mentioned..."
"You!" Liang Cheng choked, glared at Shen Qingqian and snorted, "What did I say? Don't push yourself too far and go back quickly!"
This naturally means that the Shen family does not need to open up ten more acres of land. However, Liang Cheng loves face and cannot take back what he just said immediately. As long as Shen Qingqian does not talk nonsense outside, no one else will know about it.
Shen Qingqian held back her smile and saluted him, then turned and left.
Seeing her walking away so neatly, Liang Cheng's tense expression suddenly softened.
"This girl...is worthy of being raised by a master."
No one knew that Taifu Shen was kind to Liang Cheng.
At that time, Liang Cheng was just an unknown member of the Liang family. He was not outstanding among the young men of the aristocratic families. At that time, he even had a low self-esteem.
It was Taifu Shen's words that awakened him and allowed him to achieve what he has achieved today.
It's a pity... Liang Cheng's eyes dimmed, his fists behind his back tightened, and then relaxed again.
Fortunately, the Shen family was exiled to northern Hubei.
…
When Shen Qingqian came out of Liang Cheng's place, she saw Shengze standing not far away, waiting for her.
"Brother Cheng San? Why are you here?" Shen Qingqian looked around. There was no one else around, but shouldn't he be training new recruits at the moment?
Shengze stepped forward quickly and looked her up and down before replying, "I heard you were here and came here specially to take a look."
Although he also guessed why Liang Cheng was looking for her, he just didn't feel relieved because he didn't see her safe and sound with his own eyes.
"I'm fine. The general just asked about the new farm tools. Go back and get busy." Shen Qing said with a smile.
Of course it's a good thing that someone cares, but discipline in the military is strict, so it's definitely not a good thing for Cheng San to come here like this, so it's better to go back quickly.
Shengze nodded, "I'll take you out, along the way."
Shen Qingqian thought for a moment and realized that the school was indeed on her way back, so she nodded and said, "Thank you, Third Brother Cheng."
"It should be." Shengze's lips curled up slightly.
The two of them walked to the exit of the military camp together. No one said anything along the way, but Shen Qingqian could feel that Shengze had been deliberately matching her pace.
Shen Qingqian didn't think much about it, she just thought he was taking care of the neighbor's little sister.
When they arrived at the edge of the school field, Shen Qingqian said, "I know the way. Brother Cheng San, please go back quickly."
"Well, you should be more careful on the road, or... you should wait until Brother Shen is relieved of his duties before leaving?" Shengze paused and frowned.
Shen Qingqian smiled and said, "I'm not a child. I really know the way back." She raised her chin towards the school field. "Brother Chengyun is looking at you. You should go back quickly."
There is still a long way from the military camp to Linshuigou, but this road does not have many twists and turns, and there are no forks. Shen Qingqian can't go wrong as long as he goes in the right direction.
Sheng Ze saw Ling Yun hinting at him with a wink, so he had no choice but to give up the idea of sending Shen Qingqian back, "Then you must be careful."
"Yeah, don't worry, I can do it." Shen Qingqian nodded repeatedly.
The two parted ways, and Shen Qingqian strode out.
Today was a rare opportunity for no one to follow her. She had to do something serious on the way back.
Originally, Shen Qingqian wanted to go to the field today to see if random seeds could grow anything else, but it was still too obvious in the valley. Now that she had such an opportunity, of course she couldn't let it go.
