She has a slender waist and delicate bones, and is able to seduce the ascetic horse.

Chapter 155: Giving Tonic Soup

"I don't know. When the boy came to report, he couldn't find her, so he found her on my head."

Aoxue spread her hands and shrugged.

"You know, I am now considered an old man in the courtyard. The other servants are all newly purchased and do not have as much seniority as me."

Within a few days, I actually became an old man and was able to teach newcomers many things...

Shen Jiaojiao was amused by her words.

The feeling of sadness in spring and autumn in my heart quickly dissipated.

"Go and help me call Kexin Keying in."

"They are not guarding the door. I will ask someone to search in the courtyard. If they can't be found, they may have gone outside..."

"It's impossible to go outside. No matter what, one of them will stay with me."

Aoxue hurriedly walked in at this moment.

Shen Jiaojiao didn't care. After all, Aoxue was not a maid before, so how could she expect someone to be proficient in etiquette and rules?

Carefully wiping off the makeup on her face, she quickly walked to the dressing table and looked at the woman in the bronze mirror.

There is a basin of clean water placed in the bathroom.

"Well, maybe the servant didn't search carefully. I'll make arrangements now."

"No more sending."

Aoxue couldn't hold it in anymore and asked, "Won't Miss send someone to find them?"

His eyes were red, his nose and ears were also red from the cold water, and he looked very pitiful.

A biting coldness lingered on her face.

After Aoxue finished speaking, she turned around and walked out before even saluting.

She brought a dry towel, soaked it in, and quickly washed her face.

The entire east wing was enveloped in a solemn atmosphere.

"You mean someone kidnapped them?"

The two people in the room stopped talking, and both had straight faces. One looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and the other looked at the black hair in his hand.

"why?"

There was no time to worry about spring and autumn, so she quickly got up from the couch and walked to the bathroom.

"Miss, I had people turn the Mingzhu Courtyard upside down, but I didn't see the two of them."

"They are not fools, how could they disappear for no reason? What's more, they were clearly still there when the sworn brother came."

"I know." She nodded, picked up the wooden comb on the table, and handed it over, "Here, help me comb my hair into a bun again. My hair is messed up."

"Okay." Aoxue took the wooden comb.

She shivered, and her whole body became energetic.

"Yes." Shen Jiaojiao nodded, eyes slightly narrowed, staring at the person in the mirror.

Aoxue was not good at combing her hair. After combing her hair into a simple and quick bun, she ran to the small kitchen to prepare soup.

When Shen Jiaojiao changed her clothes and walked out of the east compartment, Aoxue happened to come out with a food box.

The master and servant looked at each other and walked toward the main courtyard in tacit agreement.

When they arrived at the entrance of the main courtyard, the two of them were stopped by the gatekeeper.

"Miss, please Rong Xiao go and report."

"Well, I'm looking for my adoptive father," she said.

The boy ran in to report and came out not long after.

"Miss, please come in."

"Okay." Shen Jiaojiao nodded and walked inside.

Soon, she stopped in the east wing and stared at the lights in the room.

"Miss, the master is in the study room." The servant reminded her.

"I know, I have something to do with my foster mother. You have someone go in and report that the maid in my courtyard is missing, and I want the servants in the house to help search her."

The boy quickly agreed and found a maid to go in and deliver the message.

Mrs. Meng was currently leaning on the small couch in the east chamber, letting Qingmai massage her shoulders and neck.

After listening to the little maid's report, Mrs. Meng didn't want to pay attention to it. Seeing that the little maid was still waiting eagerly, she frowned impatiently, but her voice was always gentle.

"The Meng Mansion is safe. Those two maids will not be lost. Go and report to the eldest lady and tell her that I am asleep and let her relax."

After the little maid went out and only the barley was left in the room, Mrs. Meng's face instantly darkened.

"It's best if nothing happens! I won't help!"

Qingbao pretended to be invisible and massaged Mrs. Meng's acupuncture points on her shoulder blades without any distractions.

"Qingbai, how is Wan'er feeling today?"

"As far as I can tell you, madam, she is doing well today and the fetus in her belly is safe," Qingmai said.

"Ever since I found out she was pregnant, I've been on edge for fear of something happening."

"Madam, please relax. The doctor said that Miss's body is strong. As long as she keeps her body and mind happy, there will be no problems."

"Are you saying it's too early for her? She hasn't even had her haircut yet, alas!"

Qingba didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only answer dryly: "Madam, please relax."

Mrs. Meng heard her perfunctory manner, and her eyes were covered with a thin layer of anger, "What? You don't want to talk to me?"

"I forgive you, madam, but I never meant this."

Seeing Qingmai kneeling on the ground in fear and trembling, Mrs. Meng suddenly felt bored and waved her hand to let him out.

"That's all, you go down first."

……

Shen Jiaojiao was a little unhappy because she could not see her adoptive mother, so she could only follow the boy to the study.

Two servants were guarding the door of the study.

Seeing her approaching, the two of them quickly saluted respectfully, "Miss, you are here."

After that, he led her in.

As she walked, she secretly looked at the layout of the study, thinking about where the so-called incriminating evidence would be placed.

When she reached Mr. Meng, she quickly smiled and said, "Father, Jiaojiao comes to see you."

Mr. Meng beamed with joy, "We are so sweet and considerate!"

Shen Jiaojiao hurriedly signaled Aoxue to take out the tonic soup from the food box.

Seeing two cups of soup, Master Meng was a little surprised, "Why bring two cups?"

She lowered her head, with a wry smile on her lips, "The other cup is to honor my adoptive mother, but... my adoptive mother fell asleep."

Mr. Meng frowned and looked up at the east wing. Seeing that there was still candlelight inside, he was immediately a little angry and felt extremely sorry for his adopted daughter.

"Jiaojiao is the most sensible person. Come on, let me see what delicious soup is being cooked."

Shen Jiaojiao smiled, waved her hand for Aoxue to step back, then opened the soup cup herself and scooped out two bowls of soup.

She pushed one of the bowls in front of Mr. Meng.

"I'll use some with my adoptive father."

Mr. Meng happily picked up the bowl, blew on the hot air, took a sip, and narrowed his eyes with a smile.

"It tastes delicious! My sweet and caring family is the best!"

The father and daughter sat opposite each other, drinking soup and talking about home affairs.

"I heard that the Jiang family is going to hold a banquet in the next two days. You have to be careful and don't do it like last time..."

Last time I talked about the Meizhuang case.

Shen Jiaojiao nodded and casually asked about the Lin family's situation, "Then the Lin family's bastard..."

Mr. Meng's eyes flashed, "Don't worry about this, Jiaojiao, we will handle it for you. Just be happy."

Seeing that her adoptive father didn't want to say anything, she didn't ask any more questions.

"You don't have to worry too much about the banquet in two days. My sworn brother gave me a maid who is good at martial arts. She will protect me then."

Mr. Meng felt relieved and drank two bowls of soup with dignity, praising how delicious it was before going to deal with the affairs.

"Jiaojiao, I still have things to deal with. You can find a book and read it yourself."

Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay."

Her eyes narrowed and she looked around.

Where would the incriminating evidence Mo Gan mentioned be hidden?
