Chapter 344 The passing prefect
Before, when Shen Qingning saw the design drawings that Shen Qingqian drew for his house, he was extremely envious.
Now seeing Shen Qingqian decorating her room bit by bit, she couldn't help it.
However, Shen Qingning and Shen Qingyu are twins and have lived together since childhood, so Lin never thought of letting the sisters live separately from the beginning.
Shen Qingqian only thought for a moment, then put these thoughts aside and concentrated on doing her own thing.
After dinner, Su Mu went back to the Military Equipment Inspectorate to report. When Old Qin saw him come back, he asked him about it.
“Their houses have been repaired.”
"Everything is fine, don't worry, Mr. Qin."
With Su Mu's words, Mr. Qin was really relieved.
The next day, Shen Xiao also returned to the Military Equipment Bureau and took the things prepared by Wu and others to find Liang Cheng.
"General, Chen Xiao from the Arms Supervisory Department requests to see you."
When his men came to report, Liang Chengcai looked up from the map and uttered a deep roar.
"You previously approved them to repair the house for one month." The subordinate reminded.
Liang Cheng suddenly remembered that when Sheng Ze mentioned it, he just followed the trend.
"What is he here for?" Liang Cheng asked.
"He seemed to be delivering something. I saw him carrying a basket."
Liang Cheng frowned slightly, "No need, let him go back."
He can't get too close to the Shen family, and should avoid seeing them if possible.
Shen Xiao was not surprised that Liang Cheng did not see him. He bowed and thanked the person who came to deliver the message, then put the basket outside Liang Cheng's office and turned away.
He was well aware of Liang Cheng's concerns and was not bothered at all.
However, when he walked out from Liang Cheng's place, he ran into a group of people.
Shen Xiao quickly retreated a few steps to the open space beside the road, lowered his head slightly, and waited for them to pass.
"Your Excellency the Prefect, please come in. The General has been very busy with official duties lately, and today is the only day he is free."
"Of course I understand the hard work of the general, so I came to see him. Don't be nervous, your general and I are old acquaintances."
"Yes, yes, the prefect and the general were childhood playmates."
The group of people walked further and further away, and Shen Xiao didn't take it to heart, and went straight back to the Military Equipment Bureau.
The Arsenal got off work early that day, so Chen Xiao and Chen Er went home early.
The two men walked to the intersection and looked in surprise at the carriage parked outside their yard and the followers guarding the carriage.
Shen Xiao and Chen Er looked at each other and quickened their pace.
When passing by the large courtyard opposite, Shen Xiao clearly heard someone say, "I never thought that the prefect would come here."
Didn't the prefect go to the military this morning? Why is he here now?
Shen Xiao felt a little uneasy and almost started to jog.
When he ran home breathlessly, he heard a man's hearty laughter at the door.
"Haha, I was just saying, how could the girl from Master Shen's family be so mean to my rebellious son? Madam, there's no need to be so mean. It was my useless son who was at fault first."
Shen Xiao took a deep breath, put on a gentle smile, and strode to the door, "Mom, I'm back, this is..."
Zhang Zhiyao in the room looked towards the door and saw a gentle and elegant young man in cloth clothes, standing tall at the door, also looking at him.
"Ah Xiao, come quickly and meet Prefect Zhang." When Wu saw Chen Xiao, she quickly stood up.
She was extremely nervous at the moment, and seeing her son come back was like seeing a savior.
"Chen Xiao greets the prefect." Chen Xiao saluted Zhang Zhiyao as a student, neither humble nor arrogant.
Zhang Zhiyao's eyes darkened, but the smile on his face did not diminish. "Mr. Shen, there is no need to be so polite. I am just passing by and came to apologize on behalf of my son. I have to go back now."
Having said that, Zhang Zhiyao stood up and said goodbye.
