Chapter 205 She is gambling
Shen Qingqian sighed exaggeratedly, "Scared! Of course I'm scared, but there are so many injustices in this world, and I'm not the only one."
She was betting that Liang Cheng would not touch her easily.
How could the prestige Liang Cheng had accumulated over the years in the Hubei Northern Army, with his clear rewards and punishments, be destroyed by a little girl like her?
Shen Qingqian and Liang Cheng looked at each other, neither avoiding his gaze.
After an unknown amount of time, Liang Cheng suddenly said, "You can go back."
Shen Qingqian's heart suddenly relaxed, and she asked with a smile, "What about the ten acres of land you just mentioned?"
"You!" Liang Cheng choked, glaring at Shen Qingqian and snorting, "Don't push my luck. Go back now!"
What this meant was naturally that the Shen family didn't need to reclaim an extra ten acres of land. However, Liang Cheng was too concerned about his reputation to take back what he had just said. As long as Shen Qingqian didn't talk about it outside, no one else would know about it.
Shen Qingqian suppressed her smile, bowed to him, and turned to leave.
Seeing her leave so decisively, Liang Cheng's tense expression suddenly softened.
"This girl is indeed worthy of being raised by the Grand Tutor."
No one knew that Master Shen was indebted to Liang Cheng.
Back then, Liang Cheng was just an unknown person from the Liang family's side branch. He was not outstanding among the young masters of aristocratic families. He even felt very inferior at that time.
It was Master Shen's words that awakened him and led to his current achievements.
It’s a pity that Liang Cheng’s eyes dimmed, and his fists behind his back tightened, then quickly loosened.
Fortunately, the Shen family was exiled to northern Hubei.
When Shen Qingqian came out from Liang Cheng's place, she saw Sheng Ze standing not far away waiting for her.
"Brother Cheng, why are you here?" Shen Qingqian looked around and saw no one else, but shouldn't he be training new recruits right now?
Sheng Ze walked over quickly, looked her up and down before replying, "I heard you were here, so I came to see you."
Although he guessed why Liang Cheng was looking for her, he was still worried until he saw with his own eyes that she was safe and sound.
"I'm fine. The general just asked about the new farm tools. You should go back and get busy." Shen Qingqian said with a smile.
It is certainly a good thing that someone cares about you, but the military has strict discipline. It is definitely not a good thing for Cheng San to come here like this, so it is better for him to go back quickly.
Sheng Ze nodded and said, "I'll take you out, it's on the way."
Shen Qingqian thought about it and realized that the training ground was indeed on her way back, so she nodded and said, "Thank you, Third Brother Cheng."
"It's my duty." Sheng Ze raised the corners of his lips slightly.
The two walked towards the exit of the military camp together. No one said much along the way, but Shen Qingqian could feel that Sheng Ze was deliberately coordinating with her pace.
Shen Qingqian didn't think much about it and just thought he was taking care of the neighbor's little sister.
When they reached the edge of the training ground, Shen Qingqian said, "I know the way. Third Brother Cheng, please go back quickly."
"Well, you should be careful on the road, or you should wait until Brother Shen is fired before leaving," Sheng Ze paused and said with a frown.
Shen Qingqian smiled, "I'm not a child, I really know the way back." She raised her chin towards the training ground, "Brother Chengyun is looking at you, you should go back quickly."
There is still some distance from the military camp to Linshuigou, but the road is not very winding and there are no forks. As long as Shen Qingqian goes in the right direction, he will not go wrong.
Sheng Ze saw Ling Yun winking at him and hinting at him, so he gave 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 her to have no one following her, and she still had some work to do on the way back.
Originally, Shen Qingqian wanted to go to the field today to see if the random seeds could grow anything else, but they were still too conspicuous in the valley. Now that she had such an opportunity, she certainly couldn't let it go.
