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

Chapter 216: Coaxing a little baby?

Keying took the order and walked out quickly.

Shen Jiaojiao sat on the bed, staring blankly at the swaying bed curtain, her cheeks suddenly turned red.

I almost forgot that she still has Gu worms on her body!
Could it be that my sworn brother was really with her just now...

She was ashamed and annoyed. She carefully felt the changes in her body and confirmed that the two of them had not broken through the last level, and then she gradually felt relieved.

If two people have sex, the poisonous insects will melt into her bones and blood. At that time, as Mr. Qian said, she will be driven by the Gu insect to fall in love with her adopted brother. How can she have any deep thoughts of her own?
Fortunately, my sworn brother didn't get too confused...

The man's deep voice appeared in her mind, expressing his feelings every word, making her whole heart tremble.

Apart from concealing Meng Wan's affairs, the sworn brother treated her very well as he said.

but……

The delicate distant eyebrows were slightly frowned.

She pursed her lips, her heart was in a state of confusion, and her brain was in a mess.

No matter how high-sounding the sworn brother said, he could not hide that this was a ridiculous thing.

The world would only laugh at her.

What's more, there is the Shen family between her and her adopted brother.

Thinking of this, she reached out to touch her waist as if she had remembered something important.

I don't know where the belt was thrown away by my adopted brother.

Not to mention the embroidery bag hanging on the waist.

Her face changed slightly, and she glanced at the ground. She didn't see the embroidery bag, so she hurriedly rummaged on the bed again.

Soon, she found a white embroidered bag and held it tightly in her hand.

What is inside is the fish-shaped jade pendant.

Who could have guessed that the jade pendant is on her body?
She poured out the jade pendant, held it on her fingertips, and rubbed it gently.

Even if she didn't meet Prince Qing today, she would not talk to her step-brother about the jade pendant.

This jade pendant was left to her by her biological father, so she should be more careful.

"Knock knock knock!"

There was a knock on the door outside.

Shen Jiaojiao immediately put the jade pendant back into her embroidery bag and called out the door, "Come in."

Yumei pushed open the door, walked quickly through the outer room, opened the bead curtain and walked in.

"Miss." Yumei first gave a standard salute, and then asked directly: "Are you looking for me?"

Shen Jiaojiao said nothing and looked at Yumei quietly.

What rang in her mind was what Yumei had said to her in Lanshui Garden. That sentence, "I shouldn't have come to this point," made her remember it all the way.

This is what she wanted to ask.

Yumei raised her eyes and looked at her, "Miss, do you have anything to ask?"

It seemed that he had expected her to ask.

Shen Jiaojiao said 'hmm', "You were in Lanshui Garden earlier..."

"I thought the young lady wanted to ask Aunt Zhou."

Yumei smiled, without any intention of hiding anything, and told everything she knew.

"Miss, you should know your original identity, right? You are not only the daughter of the Shen family, but also the eldest daughter-in-law of the Meng family.

"Back then, my wife seemed unwilling to let this marriage be made public, in order to prevent outsiders from saying that the Meng family was trying to repay a favor, and asked the master to adopt you as an adopted daughter.

"Not only did Madam deliberately create your identity as a adopted daughter, she also plotted against you as a child to let you overhear something."

The word 'eavesdropping' exploded in Shen Jiaojiao's mind like thunder.

She widened her eyes and asked in disbelief: "What do you mean..."

What she heard under the window sill - her adoptive mother complained to her adoptive father that she was dragging her adoptive brother down?

how come……

Yumei sighed, and nodded slowly under her gaze, "Yes, that's it."

"Why did the foster mother do this?"

She opened her mouth, her throat clogged. Why coax a little baby?

Yumei said: "Because the master saw that you and the young master are close, and the young master does not object to your approach, he remembered that you had an engagement before, and the master wanted to re-engage you."

Hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao understood.

The adoptive mother must have seen through the adoptive father's thoughts and deliberately arranged this scene.

At that time, she was sensitive and dependent on others. After hearing that her adoptive mother said that she influenced her adopted brother, she naturally chose to distance herself...

"No wonder..." she murmured softly.

If she had bravely stood up and asked her adopted brother, would the ending between them have been different?
But...why didn't the sworn brother take the initiative to come to her and ask her clearly?

If her adopted brother came to ask, she would definitely tell him.

Yumei seemed to see the doubts in her heart, and a coldness flashed in her eyes, "Madam is very thoughtful. She not only puts on a show in front of you, but also tells the young master that you hate him."

"That's it." Shen Jiaojiao understood everything.

According to the taciturn nature of his adoptive brother, seeing that she deliberately distanced himself and knowing from his adoptive mother that she hated him, he would definitely stay away silently.

No wonder the relationship between the two is getting more and more tense...

"Why would the adoptive mother use such methods on two children?" Shen Jiaojiao asked.

She couldn't imagine the reason why her adoptive mother would do this.

This is too strange!

Yumei's eyes flashed slightly and she remained silent.

Shen Jiaojiao saw that she was looking at her nose and heart without saying anything. She knew that she would not be able to answer this question, so she had to change the question.

"How do you know that my adoptive mother plotted against me?"

Yumei was surprised, "Didn't you say that?"

Shen Jiaojiao's pupils trembled, and her heart was filled with turmoil.

When did she say this?

How could she have no impression at all?

No, if she wanted to say it, how could she take the initiative to alienate her sworn brother when she had already spoken out when she eavesdropped?

She had already made up her mind to rot in her stomach.

After thinking for a moment, a suspicious blush appeared on Shen Jiaojiao's cheeks, but her tone was unusually determined.

"After you came back from Meizhuang, right?"

Seeing that she had guessed it, Yumei didn't hide it, "Well, the young master asked me to check it out on the second day after the banquet at Meizhuang."

When Yumei Chuchu heard about this, she was a little surprised. Following Shen Jiaojiao's investigation, she found out what Mrs. Meng had done back then.

Shen Jiaojiao suppressed the shock in her heart.

She didn't remember telling her sworn brother about this at all, so there was only one possibility left - she unconsciously told her sworn brother after being drugged.

The sworn brother hid it so deeply that he didn't even ask her.

Seeing her lowering her head and saying nothing, Yumei thought she would not be able to accept this for a while, so she persuaded her gently.

"Miss, now that the misunderstanding between you and the young master has been resolved, why not accept him?"

Shen Jiaojiao nodded and said nothing.

She knew in her heart that there was no way she and Yumei could become real masters and servants.

After all, she is the eldest maid of her adopted brother. Yumei only recognizes her adopted brother as her master, so she will naturally side with her adopted brother.

The same goes for advising her to accept her adoptive brother at this moment.

It is impossible for Yumei to be truly loyal to her.

She sighed, not wanting to continue talking about her adopted brother, so she changed a new topic.

"I asked you to focus on preparing supplies earlier. What's the progress now?"

"The supplies are being prepared. The warehouse of Cloth Village is already filled with fabrics, and the medicinal materials have not been shipped back yet."

Saying that, Yumei's face became a little unhappy.

"The young master has sent someone to pick up the supplies. Should we leave the preparation of supplies to the young master?"
