Chapter 327 Liang Cheng’s Worry
Shan Mancheng nodded, "We came back too late, Aunt Wu and the others were already up, so I didn't sleep."
He spent the whole morning helping the Shen family with work, replacing Shen Jun's position.
Shen Junze took a group of children to study in the opposite yard.
"We are all very grateful to Mr. Shan for his help today, otherwise we would be very tired." Shen Yong said with a smile.
He told her what Shan Mancheng had helped do in the morning. Shen Qingqian suddenly felt that she was being too much. Shan Mancheng had never done anything to hurt them, but she had always been on guard against him.
Although it is always necessary to be on guard against others, people like Dan Mancheng are actually quite rare.
Although his family is rich, he is really approachable and not afraid of hard work. He will help them with anything they do.
It's just that sometimes I don't do a very good job.
"I want to thank Sixth Miss for helping me find medicine last night. My father's illness can be cured." Shan Mancheng smiled brightly.
Shen Qingqian smiled softly, "Don't bother thanking each other. We're all from the same pot, so it's only natural that we help each other."
Her words surprised Shan Mancheng. Did the Sixth Miss accept him as her own?
Shan Mancheng was not stupid, so of course he could feel Shen Qingqian's subtle rejection and defensiveness towards him. He thought that he would not change before he left, but he did not expect Shen Qingqian to relent at this moment.
"Sixth Miss is right. There's no need for us to be so polite to each other." Shan Mancheng nodded.
Shen Yong was carefree to begin with, so he quickly passed the topic. After finishing his meal, he suddenly remembered something and muttered to himself, "I wonder how Brother Cheng San and Brother Cheng Yun are doing."
When they were around, they felt like they could work much faster. After they left, the progress of building the house slowed down.
Shen Qingqian put down the bowl, and his mind drifted away involuntarily.
I hope they don’t drink the holy spring water casually, otherwise it will be gone when they really need it.
They thought of Sheng Ze and Ling Yun, and Liang Cheng in the army's office was also talking about them.
"General, what exactly are the Cheng brothers going there for?" A confused general frowned and asked dissatisfiedly.
Now they all know that the Cheng brothers are among the best in the army, so how can they leave at this time?
"I know the answer to this matter. You will know it when they come back." Liang Cheng glanced at him indifferently without telling him the mission of Sheng Ze and Ling Yun.
"But the Tuoyu people won't wait until all our people are gathered before they attack us!" The man scratched his hair anxiously, "Those bastards are always doing nothing. We told them to farm the land years ago, but they refused to listen. Now, the drought has left them without food, and now they want to steal ours."
"Do you think I'm afraid of those bastards coming to rob me? Come on! I'll beat them to a pulp!" Niu Manzi shouted with full energy.
The man rolled his eyes at Niu Manzi and said, "You are just showing off. Don't you know what our situation is now?"
In a short-term confrontation, the Hubei army will definitely have the advantage, but Hubei is a vast land with abundant resources. They only have 100,000 soldiers. They can defend here but not there. Without people and food, there is no point in fighting!
"I'm not worried about the Tuoyu tribe," Liang Cheng suddenly said. "They have limited food this year, and the quality of their horses isn't up to par with previous years. Even if they come to rob food, it won't be a large-scale operation."
"What are you worried about, General?"
Liang Cheng's eyes were deep. "I'm worried that after Prince Zhao takes Chenzhou, he'll attack northern Hubei!"
