Chapter 139 They are a family
Meng Wan choked, then quickly adjusted her attitude and continued to show weakness.

"I know it's none of your business, but don't you feel guilty at all? You have enjoyed the life that should belong to me!"

"Can't you just take pity on me and let this matter go away?"

"I didn't do anything extraordinary. As long as you don't tell anyone, no one will care about this little thing, not even Brother Yuanli."

The corners of Shen Jiaojiao's mouth twitched slightly, but she didn't expect that Chen Yuanli would be easily persuaded.

She even admired Meng Wan's eloquence.

No wonder he can coax his adoptive mother into running around.

"First of all, your suffering is not caused by me. Whether you got lost yourself or were deliberately thrown out by the maid, it is none of my business."

"Secondly, I don't feel guilty. Because from the beginning to the end, I am Shen Jiaojiao, not Meng Jiaojiao, and I am not a person used by my adopted father and mother to replace you."

"Finally, do you really think your stepmother can handle everything for you? My good sister, you have to be more careful."

After saying that, Shen Jiaojiao stood up with a tea cup and opened the distance between the two.

Once bitten, twice shy.

She didn't want to have another knife handed to her while we were chatting...

Meng Wan saw that she was cold-blooded and cold-blooded than him, so he immediately put away his weak and innocent expression and warned her sullenly.

"Shen Jiaojiao, Chunlan is in my hands. If you don't want anything to happen to her, you'd better keep this matter to yourself!"

After leaving these words, Meng Wan turned around and left.

When he reached the door, he turned around again and sneered at her.

"Haha, if you continue to meddle in other people's business, the Meng Mansion will definitely not tolerate you!"

"Is this what the foster mother means?" she asked.

Meng Wan asked, "What do you think?"

"I know, get out of here." Shen Jiaojiao made a 'please' gesture, signaling Meng Wan to leave quickly.

"Hmph!" Meng Wan tossed her sleeves and left.

It wasn't until no one could be seen that Shen Jiaojiao slowly let out a breath and fell back on the chair.

Why did Meng Wan mention Chunlan?

The matter of incense is so secretive, and all the incense ashes have been thrown away, so it should not be exposed.

Could it be that her adopted brother told her?

Yes, Meng Wan's sleeve-fluttering movements are clearly exactly the same as those of his adopted brother...

Shen Jiaojiao felt a hint of bitterness in her heart.

After all, they are brothers and sisters!

Keying came out from behind the screen, put her hand on her shoulder, and looked at her worriedly.

"Miss, what are you going to do? When the second lady says this, does it mean that the madam can't tolerate you anymore?"

When Meng Wan was about to screen the servants away, Ke Ying did not move out, but hid behind the screen.

The lady's pale face frightened her yesterday.

Coupled with the conversation between the two just now, she could probably estimate what the second young lady did yesterday.

"Why didn't you go out?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.

"This slave is worried about you." Keying sighed, "Why didn't you tell us that such a big thing happened yesterday? The second lady is so cruel and wants to assassinate you..."

Seeing Keying's concern, she quickly comforted her, "I wasn't hurt. My sworn brother blocked it for me."

"Madam's side..." Keying asked cautiously.

Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and said, "The boat will straighten out when it reaches the bridge. Let's wait and see what the adoptive mother wants to do."

She had never really taken Meng Wan seriously.

Although Meng Wan was ruthless and tried every means to plot against her.

But she knew very well that what Meng Wan did was predictable. As long as she was prepared, she would not step into a trap.

The foster mother is different.

She didn't want to put her adoptive mother on the opposite side. But it is undeniable that although her adoptive mother did not teach her the tricks of the housekeeper, she is an out-and-out master of the housekeeper.

For more than ten years, my adoptive father has been surrounded by many Yuanyuan Yanyan, but these people have not even been able to step through the door of Meng Mansion.

If the adoptive mother wants to use tricks on her...

Ke Ying saw her young lady's expression serious and quickly changed the subject.

"Miss, do you know what happened in Hanlianyuan?"

"what?"

As expected, Shen Jiaojiao's attention was attracted.

"The eldest maid next to the second young lady made a mistake and was beaten to death." Ke Ying felt sad. "The other maids in the courtyard were also beaten half to death, including Chunlan."

She waved her hand, "Don't worry about Chunlan."

Since Guangshan said that Chunlan was her sworn brother, why was she still in such a hurry?
If your sworn brother is willing to watch his people being beaten to death, then just watch.

"Miss, you are joking again." Keying looked in the direction of Hanliyuan, "I know that Miss is still worried about Chunlan."

Keying still doesn't know what Guangshan said last night.

If I knew it, I would definitely not mention Chunlan again and again.

"Did that maid do the affair between Meng Wan and her foreign husband?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.

"My guess is that they are almost the same."

"What about the adulterer? Who could it be if it weren't Liu Dachang? This maid is so cruel. Didn't she harm that man?"

"I don't know yet." Ke Ying shook her head, her face solemn, "Ke Xin went to inquire early in the morning, and it seems that he is not from the house."

It's easy to find out the information.

Just look at which servant or servant has disappeared inexplicably.

"It's hard for the maid to find someone outside the mansion to do things for her. It must be someone from inside the mansion."

As she said that, Shen Jiaojiao was still a little emotional.

"It seems that Meng Wan has been resented by many people for her extreme actions. If she continues to suppress her subordinates, it will only backfire more thoroughly."

"No, I heard that all the maids and servants in the house are not willing to go to the Hanliyuan to serve. If I hadn't been suppressed by the madam, I might have given up my burden."

"Just looking at the scars on Chunlan's face, you can tell that Meng Wan is not easy to get along with." Shen Jiaojiao sighed and warned Keying carefully, "Be optimistic about the newcomers in the courtyard. If they make mistakes, they will be punished."

"Don't worry, Miss." Keying agreed.

The master and servant wanted to talk again, but Kexin opened the curtain and walked in, holding a food box in her hand.

"Miss, please stop talking. Aoxue has asked my slave to serve you breakfast." Ke Xin said.

"Thanks to Aoxue, Miss is in good health." Ke Ying praised Aoxue and walked over to help set the meal.

After Shen Jiaojiao finished eating, Keying collected the food box and sent it back to Aoxue, while Kexin waited for her to go back to the house to catch up on her sleep.

Back in the east wing, Shen Jiaojiao lay on the bed and squinted at Kexin.

"Say something quickly, I'm sleepy."

"Aunt Zhou sent me a message, please don't mention Chunlan to my uncle for the time being." Ke Xin said.

Shen Jiaojiao was surprised, "Why?"

Aunt Zhou knew that Meng Wan was suspicious of Chunlan?
If this was the case, she would have to seriously think about the relationship between Aunt Zhou and her adopted brother.

If the sworn brother can arrange Chunlan, he can also arrange for Aunt Zhou...

"Aunt Zhou said that the second young lady is punishing the maid. If she asks for someone at this moment, the second young lady will not only not give it, but she will probably suspect that Chunlan is the person she arranged to stay in Hanliyuan."

"Aunt Zhou said that?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.

"Yes, Aunt Zhou is worried that doing this will hurt Chunlan."

Hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao felt relieved.

It seems that Aunt Zhou has nothing to do with her sworn brother, otherwise why would she say such a thing?

Before she could think clearly, Kexin suddenly knelt down and asked with a bitter look on her face: "Miss, did you have a fight with the eldest young master?"
