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

Chapter 224 Meng Wan invites you
"Let her come over." Shen Jiaojiao stood in the corridor, with her hands behind her back, looking outside quietly, as if waiting for something.

There was a hint of nostalgia between his eyebrows.

The last time she saw Aunt Ning was on her wedding day, and they didn't talk to each other. She wondered how Aunt Ning was doing now.

Aunt Ning was my stepmother's maid who came with her as a dowry.

She vaguely heard that her stepmother brought two maids as dowry when she married into the Meng family. Since she was not pregnant, she took the initiative to take one of the maids as a concubine.

The concubine soon became pregnant, but the birth was difficult and both mother and child died. Not long after, the stepmother married Aunt Ning off.

After my stepmother gave birth to my brother, Aunt Ning also gave birth to a baby, so she came back to be my brother's wet nurse.

Aunt Ning was very kind to her brother and treated her well, often making snacks for her.

Later... Aunt Ning left the house, saying that her daughter-in-law had given birth to a baby and she went back to help take care of the child. She was never seen again after that.

While she was thinking, the aunt with kind eyes and brows stood in front of her again and bowed to her gracefully.

"I've met the eldest lady."

Shen Jiaojiao blinked, "Aunt is here."

"Hey, here she comes." Aunt Ning looked at her with a smile, the same as before, "In the blink of an eye, the eldest daughter is married and has become a grown-up girl."

Her eyes were slightly sore, and her eyes quickly turned red, "Auntie!"

As he said this, he threw himself into Aunt Ning's arms.

Aunt Ning caught her, held her in her arms, and looked at her with extremely gentle eyes, as if she was looking at her own child.

"You are still such a crybaby."

"No!" Shen Jiaojiao snorted.

"You are already a grown-up girl, and you are still playing tricks on your aunt? Hurry up and get up, don't let the maids laugh at you."

Hearing this, she reluctantly pulled her head out of Aunt Ning's arms, her little mouth pouting so much that an oil bottle could be hung on it.

"Why don't you come to see me?"

"I have to take care of my grandchildren at home." Aunt Ning smiled and tapped her nose. "Jiaojiao is so big now, does she still need your aunt to coax her to sleep?"

When she was first brought to the Meng Mansion, she had nightmares every night, and it was Aunt Ning who coaxed her to sleep during that time.

Thinking about how she had pestered Aunt Ning to sleep with her, her face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed.

"Auntie is Meng Wan's person now?"

Aunt Ning nodded generously, "Yes."

"Then Auntie should know that I don't get along with her, so why is she looking for me now?"

The two got back to the topic and talked about business.

"I want to catch up with you and invite you to meet the second young lady."

Second Miss?
Shen Jiaojiao keenly noticed that Meng Wan didn't seem to like her aunt very much.

Would Meng Wan really treat his aunt as a servant?

"Okay, let's meet," Shen Jiaojiao said.

Even for Aunt Ning's sake, she would go to see Meng Wan.

See what Meng Wan is up to!

"Yumei, Kexin, the two of you come with me, and Keying stay here to guard." She ordered.

Several maids responded in unison.

Aunt Ning glanced at Yumei and was a little surprised. "Young Master actually sent Yumei to your courtyard?"

Yumei heard her name and stepped forward to greet her, "Aunt."

Both of them served Meng Hun, so they were old acquaintances.

"Hey." Aunt Ning nodded.

Yumei explained: "The young master asked me to protect the young lady personally."

"Do you need protection even in the mansion?"

Aunt Ning keenly sensed that something was wrong, especially when Shen Jiaojiao specifically asked Yumei to go with her when she went to see Meng Wan, which made things even more strange.

Yumei just said "hmm" and didn't say anything.

"Let's go, let's go see why Meng Wan wants me to come." Shen Jiaojiao tried to smooth things over and walked out first, followed by Yumei and Kexin.

Aunt Ning had no choice but to suppress her doubts and quickly walked to the front to lead the way.

Before entering the room, I heard Meng Wan's harsh voice coming from inside.

"She's just a concubine. She won't cause any trouble. So what if we let her live in the other courtyard?"

Shen Jiaojiao paused, raised her eyebrows, and looked at the maid guarding the door with a smile.

The maid's face was frozen as she immediately rushed in to report.

Soon, Meng Wan's angry voice came from inside -

"Just let her in!"

Hearing this, Shen Jiaojiao walked inside.

Meng Wan was leaning on the small couch with an arrogant look on her face. She was clearly wearing makeup, but her face looked gray and ugly.

"Oh, you are worthy of being the eldest daughter of the Meng family. I have to invite you three times before you are willing to come." Meng Wan sneered, his eyes fixed on Shen Jiaojiao, as if he wanted to stare a hole in her.

She pursed her lips and smiled, ignoring Meng Wan's shouting.

"Wan'er, what did you ask me to do?"

"Tsk, you're really good at pretending. Do you think I don't know that the lady-in-law yesterday was yours? Do you think I don't know that yesterday was all your plan?"

"Mrs. Yue?"

Shen Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that Meng Wan had misunderstood.

Meng Wan thought that Lady Yue was invited by her.

"You only know how to win people's hearts." Meng Wan rolled her eyes toward the sky, "You don't really think your plan has succeeded, do you?"

The more she listened, the more confused she became, so she just made things clear.

"What do you mean by buying people's hearts? What do you mean by calculation? What are you talking about? Speak clearly."

Meng Wan was silent for a moment, then laughed at himself, "You must have been so happy last night, right? Maybe you were still mocking me in your heart, saying that you worked so hard for so long, but ended up like this!"

"You think too much." Shen Jiaojiao shrugged.

She didn't even think about Meng Wan.

Besides, Meng Wan brought his current situation upon himself, who can he blame?

The more indifferent she acted, the angrier Meng Wan became, and he wished he could pounce on her and strangle her neck.

Yumei took a step forward and blocked Shen Jiaojiao behind her.

The two of them were not far apart. What if Meng Wan lost his mind again and raised the dagger to stab her?

When Meng Wan saw Yumei, his body stiffened, and the violence in his heart was quickly suppressed.

This Yumei is someone close to the eldest brother. She is very skilled in martial arts and cannot be easily offended.

But Meng Wan didn't intend to let Shen Jiaojiao go.

"You won't be able to be so arrogant for long. My elder brother is going to get married soon."

As he spoke, a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Get married?" Shen Jiaojiao was stunned. "Isn't it a good thing for my brother to get married?"

Meng Wan sneered, "Really?"

"Don't you want your brother to get married?" She threw the question back.

"It's good for my eldest brother to get married. After all, I was the one who introduced this sister-in-law to him."

"You're the one who's pulling the strings?"

Shen Jiaojiao realized something was wrong.

How does Meng Wan help his sworn brother to make connections?
Meng Wan has never left the house since he was confined by his stepmother. Where can he find a noble lady to help him get married?

Thinking of this, she crossed her arms over her chest and said calmly, "Brother doesn't like any woman at all, how can he get married easily?"

Being provoked by her, Meng Wan became even more displeased.

"You don't know yet, right? It's Miss Jiang who made an appointment with Big Brother!"
