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

Chapter 245 Go to clarify?
Is it related to my brother?
Shen Jiaojiao's mind moved slightly, and she sat back down and waved at Yumei.

"Stand at the door for a while. My conversation with Miss Jiang Er is not over yet."

Yumei bowed to her from a distance and then stood back in her original position.

Jiang Yi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Yumei didn't come over. He lowered his voice even more, almost speaking in a whisper.

"There's no medicine for the cold in Lin'an. People are saying that the Meng family is deliberately hoarding the medicine and driving up the prices. Now everyone is scolding Brother Ahui!"

Shen Jiaojiao's pupils suddenly shrank and she looked at Jiang Yi in disbelief.

"Is this true?!"

Jiang Yi nodded, "Absolutely true!"

"I can't buy medicine to treat colds now? How is that possible?!" She pursed her lips, remembering what her brother-in-law had said to her before.

Her brother-in-law told her not to worry about things like medicine and warm cloth, and not to tell anyone else that she was in charge.

She even wondered if she was worrying too much...

I never thought that in just two days, the wind direction outside changed so quickly!

"Jiaojiao, I won't hide it from you. You should know that more and more people have been suffering from coughs and colds in recent days," Jiang Yi said.

"I know this. My brother-in-law told me so."

"At first everyone thought it was just a common cold, but soon more and more people fell ill... More and more people couldn't buy medicine..."

Shen Jiaojiao took a breath of cold air.

Just from this short sentence, she could imagine how chaotic it was outside.

Maybe it really is a plague!

The plague in the north has spread to Lin'an!

This means... the capital has also fallen!
The feeling of impending storm became more and more obvious, and her heart sank suddenly.

"Brother, you didn't hoard any medicinal herbs. It's impossible for you to make a fortune from the national crisis!" She shook her head repeatedly, denying the rumors outside.

Jiang Yi held her hand and comforted her: "Jiaojiao, calm down."

"How can I stay calm? Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. If the people point their spearheads at my brother, then we're done for!"

Shen Jiaojiao pulled her hand back and slapped the armrest of the chair hard. Her voice became sharper and sharper, as if she believed Jiang Yi's words without a doubt.

A smile appeared in Jiang Yi's eyes, but it was quickly covered by worry.

"We all know that Brother Ahui would never do such a thing. The only way now is for you to come forward and clarify the matter." "Me? Can I?" she asked back.

"Of course you can. You are the eldest daughter of the Meng family. You have lived in the Meng family for more than ten years. You are also Brother Ahui's adopted sister. You are more legitimate than Meng Wan!"

Jiang Yi could hardly suppress the smile on his face.

"Jiaojiao, only if you clarify the matter will the people believe it. Please help Brother Ahui!"

"You're right!" Shen Jiaojiao nodded repeatedly, "But I don't know how to clarify for my brother. Should I hold a banquet and invite everyone over?"

She pretended not to understand and lured Jiang Yi to reveal his true purpose.

Jiang Yi shook his head and laughed, "Why is it so troublesome? You just need to go to Mengxianju and explain it to everyone."

"I see..." She lowered her head and thought.

"Jiaojiao, if you value Brother Ahui, you should think about him."

Shen Jiaojiao said "hmm", seeming to have been convinced.

Jiang Yi was secretly delighted. Seeing that he had convinced the other party, he immediately stood up and asked her to leave now.

There was a sudden commotion outside.

The door was pushed open from the outside.

The two girls turned their heads to look over there.

Yumei was the closest, and she quickly knelt and saluted, "Master."

Meng Hun nodded, walked in quickly, and looked down at Jiang Yi condescendingly.

Jiang Yi felt creepy when being stared at, and he felt as if the temperature around him suddenly dropped.

I don't know whether Meng Hun brought the coldness from outside in, or whether he himself was emitting coldness.

"Brother Ahui..." Jiang Yi's cheeks flushed and she called out in a tender voice.

Meng Hun turned his head and glared at Shen Jiaojiao.

"Shen Jiaojiao, don't let this kind of person into the mansion in the future, do you hear me?"

Hearing this, Jiang Yi's face turned pale.

"Brother Ahui! How could you say that to me?"
