Chapter 106 Settle old accounts
Shen Jiaojiao wants to completely shatter Zhu Mao's illusions.

Since the person who made the promise to Zhu Mao is the adoptive mother, she will ask the adoptive mother to admit that Zhu Mao's family will also be punished.

In this way, would Zhu Mao still be willing to die?

Mrs. Meng was so angry at her words.

Especially when Zhu Mao raised his head and looked at Mrs. Meng eagerly, as if waiting for her answer, Mrs. Meng felt even more troubled.

How can I say 'no' at this moment?

"Jiaojiao is right, no matter who has done something wrong, he should be punished accordingly." Mrs. Meng calmed down and changed her statement.

Shen Jiaojiao tilted her head, "What about Zhu Mao?"

Mrs. Meng's eyes widened with anger, but she still gritted her teeth and replied: "Of course you will be punished!"

"What about his family? If he can raise such an unfaithful and unjust son, his family must not be a good thing. It's best to sell them all."

Mrs. Meng forced a smile and said, "Jiaojiao, the law does not punish everyone. The specific situation needs to be analyzed in detail..."

Shen Jiaojiao didn't give her a chance to continue, and raised her eyes to look at Master Meng.

"Father, what do you think? If he can grab Miss Zhou today, he may grab Wan'er or me tomorrow. I don't dare to use such a person."

Mr. Meng also felt that what his adopted daughter said was right, and nodded repeatedly, "Jiaojiao is right, she deserves to be punished."

She turned to look at Mrs. Meng again, "Look, foster mother, foster father also thinks he deserves to be punished."

She insisted on Mrs. Meng personally speaking out the "punishment" and telling Zhu Mao to give up completely!

Madam Meng couldn't get off the tiger, so she forced a smile, "Jiaojiao is right, she deserves to be punished."

"Madam, please first..." Zhu Mao was anxious, fearing that it would affect his family, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to speak, but was quickly interrupted by Mrs. Meng.

"What else do you have to say?"

Under Mrs. Meng's stern gaze, Zhu Mao shut his mouth again.

This abnormal behavior was another piece of ironclad evidence in the eyes of Mr. Meng and Mr. Jiang.

Shen Jiaojiao's lips curled up slightly, and she turned back to look at Kexin, "How many people are there in Zhu Mao's family?"

Kexin replied respectfully: "As I said, Miss, there are seven people including the children."

"There are still children..." She sighed softly.

Zhu Mao felt goosebumps all over his body and looked at Shen Jiaojiao in shock.

The eldest lady used to be the most kind-hearted, how could she be so aggressive today?

Even young children are not spared!
"Miss Shen, please don't get involved in this. I believe Mr. Meng will handle it well." Master Jiang reminded her quickly when he saw how unforgiving she was.

He didn't want to see that gentle and sweet little girl turn into such a fierce appearance.

There are adults to do these things.

Thinking of the bloodthirsty girl he saw in the prison a few days ago, Mr. Jiang became increasingly unhappy and gave Mr. Meng an unhappy look.

I don’t know how she lived in the Meng Mansion and why she became like this.

Mr. Meng got an inexplicable eye roll and was a little confused——

Could it be because he didn't take the initiative to speak for Jiaojiao?
But Jiaojiao was very powerful today, and he couldn't interrupt her.

Master Jiang waved his hand, "I will allow you to continue interrogating me."

As he spoke, Mr. Jiang turned his attention to the last person, Liu Dachang, who was guarding the back door.

"Liu Dachang, your confession just now was that you didn't hear any unusual noises, but you saw Zhu Mao and the boys taking a maid out?"

"My lord, this is what I'm saying." Liu Dachang replied tremblingly.

"Very good, then I would like to ask you, is the back door of Meng Mansion always closed?"

"Yes."

"How big is the back door? How many people can pass through it?"

"The back door is not big. If both doors are opened at the same time, three people can pass through."

Mr. Jiang's eyes became deeper and deeper, "If the facts are as you said, and you want to open the door for them, how can you not see the maid's face clearly?"

"This..." Liu Dachang hesitated for a moment, then said bravely: "At that time, I was busy opening the door and didn't pay attention to the appearance of the maid. Besides, I don't recognize Aunt Zhou's appearance."

"Then I'll ask you again, where did the carriage at the back door come from?" "Horse, carriage?" Liu Dachang was stunned on the spot. He didn't expect Mr. Jiang to notice this detail.

The Meng family was wealthy and did prepare several carriages for their servants to use.

But if the servants in the mansion want to use it, they must first apply to the housekeeper, otherwise they will not be able to requisition it at all.

Unless...there is a token given by the master.

"Liu Dachang, I am here to warn you again. If you give false testimony, you may end up like Zhu Mao. Not only will you lose your life, but you will also harm your family."

Mr. Jiang slammed the desk and made a loud bang.

The official power suddenly appeared and swept away towards Liu Dachang.

"S-Sir, I...I..."

Liu Dachang was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.

He was the least guilty among them. In the final analysis, he just failed to keep a close eye on the back door.

Even if it is punishment, it will not be fatal.

More importantly, his family's contract of sale was in the hands of the Meng family, who had many ways to make their lives worse than death.

……

To everyone's surprise, it was Zhu Mao who was the first to confess.

He took the lead, kowtowed with bang bang bang, and shouted: "I will attack you, I beg you to be gentle and let my family go!"

Seeing that Zhu Mao couldn't bear the pressure, Liu Dachang, a wallflower, quickly followed him. Seeing the situation, the three maids also kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Mrs. Meng's hands were shaking with anger, and she glared at the servants angrily.

"What do you want to confess? Just say it directly in front of adults!"

Until this moment, Mrs. Meng still wanted to use threats to silence them.

Zhu Mao glanced at Mrs. Meng resentfully, blaming her for not being able to protect his family but coaxing himself to die.

Without any hesitation, Zhu Mao revealed all of Meng Wan's plans.

Liu Dachang and the maids followed behind to supplement.

All testimonies point to Meng Wan.

Meng Wan had a hard time defending herself, let alone the fact that this was what she had done. How could she defend herself?
Mr. Meng's expression went from shock to disbelief, then to confusion, and finally only disappointment.

He never thought that his own daughter would be so cruel.

There is not even room for a concubine!
"It seems that Miss Meng is the one behind the scenes." Master Jiang looked at Meng Wan intently, "Miss Meng is looking down on human life, I want to take him back first..."

"Master Jiang! You misunderstood!" Mrs. Meng spoke hastily, trying to defend Meng Wan, "Wan'er just loved Yuan Li too much and made such a mistake."

"Mrs. Meng, this is a crime." Master Jiang reminded.

"Master Jiang, this is a family matter of my Meng family. It's not the government's turn to ask about it, right?"

Mrs. Meng's attitude was very tough at the moment.

"After all, Aunt Zhou is just a bed-warming maid, and the contract of sale is still in Wan'er's hands. Is it possible that the government office still cares about how my Meng family treats a servant?"

Hearing this, Mr. Jiang looked displeased and stood up to leave.

It is indeed difficult to manage a maid who has signed a contract of sale.

Shen Jiaojiao stood up immediately and said, "Master Jiang, please stay. I have one more matter that I would like to ask your help in reviewing."

"What's the matter?" Mr. Jiang paused.

He came to Meng Mansion today just for Shen Jiaojiao.

She smiled slightly and ordered Keying to bring in the people waiting outside Meng's house.

After a while, Keying and Yumei walked in with a man on their left and right.

The moment she saw the man's face clearly, Meng Wan couldn't sit still and almost cut off her long nails.

"Wang Zhu!" Meng Wan screamed.

Shen Jiaojiao sneered, "It seems that Wan'er recognizes this person."
