Chapter 608: It's not a brotherly relationship with her (still 17)
Liang was stunned for a moment, "Why does sister-in-law ask this?"
Wu raised her eyebrows, "You really didn't see that"
"What did you see?" Liang was even more confused.
Mrs. Wu smiled and shook her head. "You, you are Qianjie'er's biological mother, yet you are so indifferent to her affairs."
In fact, she had just started to think about it, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was the case.
"What's wrong with her?" Liang still didn't react.
Wu had no choice but to remind him: "Think about what Cheng San called you and how he called me and my second brother's wife."
Liang lowered her eyes, then quickly looked up at Wu, "Sister-in-law, you mean the third him, he..."
"Yes, Cheng San and Sister Qian'er's relationship is not brother-sister." Mrs. Wu smiled faintly.
Liang wrung her hands, "But Miss Qian hasn't even reached the age of marriage yet!"
After hesitating for a long time, Liang finally said this.
Cheng San is already 21 years old this year, and Shen Qingqian will not reach marriage age until May. The age difference between the two is six years, which is quite a big age difference.
"What's the big deal?" Mrs. Wu thought this wasn't the most important thing. "As long as they're attracted to each other and we trust Cheng San's character, it's not impossible for them to get married."
Before, her sister Xiao was interested in Cheng San, but now it seems that Shen Qingqian has no such interest in Cheng San at all.
"Then sister-in-law, what should I do?" Liang was a little at a loss.
Thinking about it carefully, Cheng San was indeed very different to Shen Qingqian. He even called her "Aunt". Logically speaking, he called Wu and Lin by their age sequence, so he should call himself "Third Aunt".
Wu said with a smile, "Sister Qian hasn't even reached the age of marriage yet. You're so anxious that you're in a hurry. Just wait."
After saying this, Wu went back to the house.
Liang's heart was confused by these words. She had been thinking for several days whether she should agree if Cheng San proposed marriage.
On the other side, Shen Qingqian and Sheng Ze went out on horseback and headed straight for Chengjin Mountain.
What Shen Qingqian didn't expect was that the drought she saw along the way was even more serious than she had imagined.
"The spring plowing in this area hasn't even been completed. How could this happen?" Shen Qingqian frowned.
Sheng Ze pursed his lips and said, "It is said that this piece of land was originally intended for the Hubei Army to grow sweet potatoes. Later, the people who rented the land changed their minds and were unwilling to rent the land to the Hubei Army. Originally, if we hurried, we would have had time for spring plowing. Who knew..."
Shen Qingqian could guess it without Sheng Ze saying anything more.
The weather suddenly changed, rivers and lakes evaporated rapidly every day, and many ponds originally used for irrigation had no water, so the spring plowing of this area was delayed.
"Then let's go quickly. Didn't my uncle say that the canal can be repaired in half a month? As long as it is repaired before the end of April, this land can still be used to grow crops." Shen Qingqian urged his horse to hurry up.
Sheng Ze followed silently, but sighed in his heart.
People's acceptance of new things is still too low. In addition to planting a lot of sweet potatoes at the planting base in northern Hubei this year, this high-yield crop was also recommended to several large contiguous areas, but the people in most areas did not believe it.
Sheng Ze thought that this matter would have to wait until the sweet potato harvest to be more conducive to promotion, and there was no need to rush.
The terrain at the foot of Chengjin Mountain was a bit complicated, and it took Shen Qingqian and Sheng Ze two whole days to reach the foot of the mountain.
"There seems to be a water network here. Let's go up and check it out." Shen Qingqian looked around and said to Sheng Ze.
"I still owe you 5 chapters."
