Chapter 813: Not Lazy
After dinner, Shen Qingqian was called away by Sheng Ze.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with Cheng San? He hasn't said anything in such a long time. Could we be wrong?" Liang frowned as she watched the two people walking away.
Wu was also a little upset. It had been two months since Shen Qingqian came of age. How could Cheng San be so ignorant? Did he not want to take responsibility?
That won’t do!
"Third sister-in-law, it's not appropriate for us to intervene in this matter. We need to find a way to send someone to test his opinion." Mrs. Wu pondered.
They have always judged from Cheng San's actions that he was interested in Shen Qingqian, but he never said it himself. If they really misunderstood, they would have to keep their distance from now on.
Liang nodded and said, "That's right, but who should go?"
If we let an outsider ask, it will inevitably damage Shen Qingqian's reputation, so it is better to ask someone who is trustworthy.
"Xiao Ge'er will be back in two days. I'll ask him to go and check it out then." The more Wu spoke, the more uneasy she felt.
If they really misunderstood, then their previous indulgence would have harmed Sister Qian.
Thinking of this, she couldn't sit still anymore. She turned around and saw Shen Qingxiao taking off her apron. She immediately waved to her and said, "Sister Xiao, come here."
"What's wrong, mother?" Shen Qingxiao took three or two steps to stand in front of Wu.
Mrs. Wu pointed in the direction of the grove and said, "Go talk to Sister Qian and ask her to come back early. It's not good for her and Cheng San to be seen outside at night."
Shen Qingxiao: "Mom, it's already too late to say anything!"
Everyone in Huanxiyuan and the other courtyards knew that Cheng San and her sixth sister were a couple, but for some reason, neither of them made it clear.
"Xiao Jie'er, just go ahead and help Third Aunt look after your sixth sister. Don't let anyone misunderstand you." Liang also said from the side.
Shen Qingxiao had no way of refusing what the two said, so he could only agree reluctantly.
On the other side, Sheng Ze and Shen Qingqian were still talking about recent events, which could be considered as exchanging information between the two.
"The imperial court is now preoccupied with its own affairs. Sheng Zhan wants to unite with the Jun tribe to attack northern Hubei, but there has been no movement from the Jun tribe for the time being. Uncle Liang has also made arrangements in Jiji Mountain. King Zhao wants to retain his strength and is unwilling to use a large amount of stored grain to help the victims. The six northwestern states are also not at peace," Sheng Ze said as he walked.
After he finished speaking, Shen Qingqian picked out some of the situations on her side and said, "Chenchen is really capable. I feel at ease leaving the planting base to him. I will come back to take over after the girls' school is on the right track. As for the medicinal fields..."
Shen Chen would ask Shen Qingqian for instructions on professional matters, but Shen Qingqian could almost completely let go of management matters.
"Which level of mental skill have you reached?" Sheng Ze suddenly asked.
Shen Qingqian was stunned. Brother, aren't we talking about business?
"Well, maybe you've been lazy lately." Sheng Ze turned his head to look at her, his eyes full of teasing.
Shen Qingqian subconsciously retorted, "How is that possible? I've almost finished the fourth period!"
"It's good that you didn't slack off," Sheng Ze raised his hand and rubbed her head. "You must never give up halfway when it comes to martial arts training, otherwise all your efforts will be wasted."
Shen Qingqian rolled her eyes at him and said, "I know that without you telling me."
If it weren't for this, how could she have taken so long to make up her mind to learn martial arts?
Speaking of this, Shen Qingqian asked back unconvincedly, "How is your Divine Sword Manual? Let me see it sometime."
Sheng Ze's expression changed slightly when he heard this.
