Chapter 737 Relief
Shen Qingqian subconsciously wanted to deny it, but looking at Shen Qingxiao's smiling eyes, she really couldn't say it.
"Well, I haven't been with him for long." In the end, Shen Qingqian could only look at her toes and said something insignificant in an ambiguous manner.
Shen Qingxiao took a step forward, took her hand and said, "You don't have to be like this. In fact, we guessed it the last time you went out with him for such a long time."
But because they were afraid that Shen Qingqian would be embarrassed, no one said anything and the whole family pretended not to know.
Oh no, except Shen Qingning who really knows nothing.
When she first knew that Shen Qingqian was also interested in Sheng Ze, she felt upset for a few days, but she soon felt relieved.
Sixth sister and Third Brother Cheng are both excellent people, so it is understandable that they like each other.
"Shen Qingqian didn't know what to say.
No wonder Liang always complained about Shengze not coming to propose marriage. It turned out that everyone in the family had tacitly accepted their relationship, and they would not be able to feel at ease unless the status was determined.
"Okay, I'll go to the sugar factory. Qin Ge'er and the others are looking for you in the house. Didn't you say you would teach them paper cutting today?" Shen Qingxiao reminded.
Shen Qingqian held her forehead with her hand. "It's a good thing you reminded me. I'll go back and get some things. Third sister, you go and get busy!"
After saying that, she hurried back to the house. If Shen Qingxiao hadn't said it, she would have really forgotten about it.
Shen Qingxiao looked at her back, the corners of her mouth still slightly curved. She was really relieved. Now she only had blessings for Shen Qingqian and Sheng Ze, hoping that they could be together and stay together for the rest of their lives.
June came quickly, but the weather showed no signs of improving.
Both the imperial court and the six northwestern states of King Zhao suffered from severe drought, and more and more people died from the high temperature and heat.
What’s even more terrible is that during the lean period, locust plagues occurred in many places!
This was a fatal blow to the entire Jin Dynasty. Conflicts frequently occurred at the border between the imperial court and the six northwestern states, some over a bucket of water and some over a pound of grain.
Relatively speaking, the situation in the six northwestern states and Jinzhou managed by King Zhao was better than that in the areas under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. This caused many people on the border to flee to King Zhao's territory.
The situation in Linzhou is the most special. Because of the Qishan Mountains, as long as the brave ones go into the mountains in groups, they can survive.
So, the people near Linzhou went up the mountain together. No matter whether they were from the imperial court or King Zhao's side, when they met in the mountains, they would not care about each other. For them, survival was the most important thing.
How could the Jun tribe, who lived just across the mountain, let go of this good opportunity to rob the people of Dajin? In just half a month, several groups of people disappeared in the mountains.
When these situations were reported to King Zhao, he immediately began to close the mountain and forbade ordinary people to approach Mount Qi.
The imperial court was now preoccupied with its own affairs and simply ignored the news, allowing the people who went up the mountain to be captured and taken to the Jun tribe.
On this day, Liang Cheng and Sheng Ze went to the outskirts of Hubei City to inspect the newly built defensive fortifications, and Zheng Shicheng brought up this matter.
"I didn't expect the disaster outside to be so serious." Liang Cheng glanced at the canal not far away, and sighed again that it was a good thing that Sheng Ze and Shen Qingqian were in northern Hubei.
Only Liang Cheng knew that they had gone to Chengjin Mountain. Before they left, disaster had already occurred in northern Hubei. However, when they came back, the situation improved. Even now, although the entire northern Hubei cannot use water without restrictions, there is still no problem for people to drink and irrigate the fields.
"This is our chance." Sheng Ze suddenly spoke.
