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

Chapter 179 The elder invites you
Keying guessed the doubts in her heart and let out a long sigh, "Liu Dachang is really nothing!"

Hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao understood.

Meng Wan must have done other evil things.

For example, they could trick the maid into going to Liu Dachang so that he could commit atrocities; or punish Lu Yong so that the maid would give up completely.

Meng Wan's methods have always been vicious.

Keying said helplessly: "Miss, Lu Yong is dead, so this matter can only be left alone."

Although they felt sorry for the tragic end of Lu Yong and the maid, there was nothing they could do.

When a maid and her family have children, to put it bluntly, they are the private property of their masters.

How to deal with it is a matter of one word from the master.

Even though there is a law that prohibits private abuse of servants, the people of Dazhou know that the law never restricts the rich and powerful.

"No, it won't end like this."

Shen Jiaojiao slowly raised her head and looked directly into Keying's eyes.

"Even if Meng Wan erases all traces, he can't deny that it happened. Go check Liu Dachang and find out what he has done."

Then he looked at Aoxue.

"What's going on in the big kitchen? The Liu family has many years of foundation in the big kitchen. Even if they are punished by the sworn brother, they should still control it."

Aoxue nodded, "Miss is right, the people sent by the young master were quickly dismissed."

When it comes to big kitchens, Ke Xin also has something to say.

"This slave had a good relationship with the maid who cooked the fire in the big kitchen. She has not been seen in recent days."

Shen Jiaojiao frowned, "Has your adoptive mother discovered you?"

"I don't know, I don't know. I didn't do anything else. I just made friends with the fire-making maid. How could it arouse Madam's alarm?"

"My stepmother is very thoughtful. Maybe she sensed that someone is investigating. Please don't go to the big kitchen in the near future."

"Yes." Kexin nodded and agreed.

Aoxue suddenly said 'Hey', remembering something she mentioned before.

"By the way, I saw that the ingredients sent to Qinghui Courtyard from the big kitchen are still incompatible..."

In other words, no matter what happens in the big kitchen, the person who delivers the food will never forget to deliver the poisonous food to the sworn brother.

Shen Jiaojiao's heart sank.

Who is the person behind the scenes? Why do you want your sworn brother to die?
"Don't worry about it. I've told my sworn brother that if he doesn't care, that's his business."

Aoxue shook her head worriedly.

"Miss, you can't ignore it! If what the miracle doctor said is right, you were probably poisoned yesterday.

"Who can get involved in the meal? Who can touch the meal. Only the people in the kitchen... The Meng family is full of crises, we can't take it lightly!"

Shen Jiaojiao was silent for a moment and said 'hmm'.

"Don't worry, my sworn brother will investigate this matter."

After speaking, she waved her hand and motioned for the maids to leave.

She had been frightened too much today, and she was really tired, so she closed her eyes as soon as she was free.

When I woke up again, the sun was already heading west.

My stomach growled.

She rubbed her eyes in confusion and put her other hand on her stomach.

I'm so hungry that my chest is touching my back.

"Kexin! Keying!" she shouted outside.

Soon, Keying opened the curtain and walked in.

"Miss, you're awake." Keying said as she hung up the bed curtain and waited for her to get up. "Are you hungry? Aoxue has simmered chicken soup on the stove. If you are hungry, I will ask the kitchen to put down a bowl of shredded chicken. noodle."

She nodded vigorously, "Okay."

Keying helped her to the small cave outside, and then went out to give instructions.

Not long after, a steaming bowl of shredded chicken noodles was served.

A bowl of noodles satisfies the hunger in the stomach.

Ke Ying neatly put away the dishes and chopsticks, and said smoothly: "Madam sent someone to say that we will have dinner in the main courtyard today, so you should go there early."

"I just had a bad time with Meng Wan. What did my stepmother ask me to do?"

She frowned, her face full of reluctance.

"I don't know." Keying shook her head, but still persuaded patiently: "Madam is an elder, and the elder invites you, how can you refuse?" Shen Jiaojiao also knew in her heart that she was just being petty and didn't want to go.

After dilly-dallying for a while, she was willing to let Keying dress up for her.

"Are the foster father and foster brother at home?"

"Here I am."

"Are they also going to the main courtyard?"

"Yeah, yeah." Keying nodded while pressing Shen Jiaojiao's neck, "Miss, don't move, it's almost done."

For some reason, Keying dressed her up extremely beautifully, and for the first time, she dug out an aqua blue dress from the closet and put it on for her.

Shen Jiaojiao resisted and turned her head, "I don't like it."

"My young lady has a heavenly beauty, and she is even more beautiful when dressed up. How can she be compared to that of the Jiang family?" Ke Ying insisted for the first time, insisting that she change into it.

"Stung by Jiang Yi?" She smiled and shook her head.

But Xin and Keying also followed this morning. Seeing Jiang Yi dressed in jewels, they pushed her down.

Maybe the two maids were feeling unhappy.

Unfortunately, she never cared about this.

"Jiang Yi is not here, who do you want me to wear it for?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.

"Then please let me wear it for my slave." Keying looked aggrieved. "My slave is not happy when she thinks that the young master and Miss Jiang are both wearing red."

In her eyes, the eldest young master has been pestering his young lady in every possible way in the past few days, so he should take responsibility.

How could anyone go to Qin and Muchu to talk about Jiang Yi?
My own lady is tens of millions of times better than Jiang Yi!
In the end, Shen Jiaojiao couldn't resist Ke Ying, so she still put on the aqua blue dress, with a South Pearl hairpin inserted diagonally into her bun, which was simple yet elegant.

"Okay." Keying smiled and pulled her up from the dressing table, "It's getting late, let's go to the main courtyard quickly."

"Yeah." She nodded, got up and walked out.

Before going out, Keying took another white cloak and put it on her shoulders, "It's cold outside and the journey is not short."

She looked down at the cloak she was wearing.

There is a circle of rabbit velvet around the brim of the hat, which is a bit cute.

"Let's go." Shen Jiaojiao gathered her cloak and did not refuse Keying's kindness.

When the master and servant arrived at the main courtyard, many people were already sitting in the main room.

She was standing outside the house, waiting for the highland barley call, when she heard Chen Yuanli's voice.

"Didn't Yuan Li move out?" She turned around and asked Keying softly.

"Yes, my uncle took Aunt Zhou to move out at noon today."

"Then how..."

Before Shen Jiaojiao had time to ask, she saw Qingmai coming up to take her in.

A decent smile appeared on Shen Jiaojiao's face, and she followed Qingqing Bare inside.

The adoptive father, the adoptive mother, the adoptive brother, Chen Yuanli, Meng Wan... the entire Meng family's masters are here.

Seeing her coming in, everyone looked over.

Mr. Meng and Mrs. Meng looked at her in surprise, not expecting that she would dress up specially.

The resentment in Meng Wan's eyes could hardly be hidden.

Especially when he saw Chen Yuanli standing up suddenly, he was so angry that he squeezed the tea cup in his hand.

Chen Yuanli looked at her infatuatedly and murmured: "Jiaojiao..."

Shen Jiaojiao didn't look at him at all, she walked quickly to her adoptive father and mother with her head lowered, and saluted solemnly, "Father, adoptive mother."

"Jiaojiao, wake up quickly."

Mr. Meng's face was full of kindness and he joked: "Why do you look so good today?"

Shen Jiaojiao's cheeks were slightly red and she explained in a low voice: "The maid in the courtyard is having fun."

"I will dress up more in the future, I will be more energetic like this!"

"Well, Jiaojiao understands."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the armchair.

Before she could sit down, she vaguely noticed an inquiring look coming from the opposite side.

Sitting directly opposite her was her adopted brother.
