Chapter 99 Accusations
Before Mrs. Meng could stop Meng Wan, an angry scolding came from below.

"Wan'er! How could you be so cruel?"

Chen Yuanli's face was full of disbelief, and there was a strangeness in his eyes, as if he had never known Meng Wan before.

Meng Wan was shocked by his voice and turned to look at Chen Yuanli without paying attention to the boy below.

"You, how can you yell at me? You never yelled at me before..."

As she spoke, she shed tears of grievance.

Chen Yuanli didn't accept this trick and still glared angrily.

"Look at the good things you have done!" He pointed at the woman in his arms with a gloomy expression.

Meng Wan raised her hand to wipe away her tears, and then she saw clearly who was holding him in his arms.

Miss Zhou's clothes were stained with blood, but her charming little face was intact. She was leaning weakly in Chen Yuanli's arms, sobbing softly.

Meng Wan stiffened, looked at Miss Zhou, and then looked down at the boys kneeling below, with a hint of panic on her face.

She staggered back and looked at Mrs. Meng subconsciously.

Mrs. Meng understood the fear in her beloved daughter's eyes and understood everything instantly.

Meng Wan actually acted at this juncture!

It’s so frustrating!
Mrs. Meng hates that iron cannot become steel. She had promised before that she would definitely deal with this maid. Why didn't Meng Wan want to listen?

But Mrs. Meng didn't want to embarrass her beloved daughter, so she could only suppress her anger and remind Chen Yuanli.

"Yuanli, please be careful."

Chen Yuanli was still angry, but he did not dare to confront Mrs. Meng. He clenched his fists and remained silent.

Mrs. Meng saw his dissatisfaction and persuaded him quietly.

"Miss Zhou is just a maid, so why did she treat Wan'er like this? And the matter hasn't been investigated clearly, how can you insist that Wan'er did it?"

"Even if you are a prisoner, there should be an interrogation process."

Chen Yuanli nodded reluctantly, "That's what you said."

Seeing him giving in, an unknown fire arose in Shen Jiaojiao's heart.

Chen Yuanli saw Miss Zhou's miserable situation with his own eyes, why did he still listen to Meng Wan's sophistry?

Obviously Meng Wan almost admitted it herself, why did the adoptive mother still want to excuse Meng Wan?
Shen Jiaojiao couldn't understand, and she didn't dare to understand.

In her impression, her adoptive mother had always been a fair and strict matron, how could she be so biased like this...

"Then let's interrogate them." She said softly, "Miss Zhou and these boys were intercepted by Pavilion Master Murong at the back door."

Meng Wan's expression changed instantly. She didn't expect that she was intercepted at the back door.

She quickly glanced at Meng Wan and continued: "At that time, Miss Zhou was still tied with ropes. It was obviously a kidnapping case."

"Kidnapping?!" Chen Yuanli was startled. He lowered his head to look at the seriously injured Miss Zhou and said in a very soft voice, "Ayan, please tell me carefully, what happened today?"

Miss Zhou huddled in his arms and told the story in a muffled voice.

"A few days ago, I heard the maid below say that the second lady doesn't like me and is angry that I dominate my uncle all day long. She wants to plot against me and send me out of the house."

"I was scared and asked the eldest lady for help. The eldest lady took pity on me and sent several maids to Xiyuan. Unexpectedly, today I heard the maid say again that the second lady had given a death order and that she would kill me today..."

"You're lying!" Meng Wan interrupted Miss Zhou sternly, "I've never done anything like this before, so don't spit on me!"

If looks could kill, Miss Zhou must have died long ago.

Meng Wan glared at Miss Zhou fiercely, and Chen Yuanli was frightened by the fierceness in his eyes.

Is this still the Meng Wan he knows?

Isn't Wan'er the most gentle and lovely?

Seeing that Meng Wan was so guilty, Chen Yuanli believed 70% to 80% of Miss Zhou's words and asked him to continue talking with a straight face.

"Husband, how can you believe what this little bitch says?!" Meng Wan was furious. Mrs. Meng raised her hand and took Meng Wan's hand, pushing her into the armchair next to her with a stern look on her face.

"Okay, since Aunt Zhou has testified against you, let her continue talking!"

Meng Wan did not dare to disobey Mrs. Meng's words, and knew that her mother would not harm her, so she could only endure her anger and wait for Miss Zhou's next words.

"Don't be afraid, Ayan, my wife will make the decision for you." Chen Yuanli once again advised Miss Zhou to continue.

Miss Zhou lowered her head and said in a low voice: "They said that the second young lady hates me because outsiders compare me to the second young lady and say that I am not worthy to compare with her."

"I didn't take it seriously at first, until I heard them mention Fangfei Pavilion, saying that the second lady wanted them to send me there. Fangfei Pavilion is closest to the back door, and they can smuggle me out of the house then."

"I was so scared that I wanted to look for my uncle, but the maids said that my uncle was with the second lady. I also wanted to look for the eldest lady, but the maids said that the eldest lady was not at the house."

"I, I was very confused and didn't know what to do, so I asked my maid to deliver a food box to the eldest lady and put a note inside."

With that said, Miss Zhou looked in Shen Jiaojiao's direction.

"Miss, have you received the food box?"

Shen Jiaojiao nodded, "I got it, I also saw your note."

She took out a piece of paper from her sleeve, unfolded it, pointed to the courtyard circled with cinnabar, and turned to the back to show Miss Zhou's message.

Miss Zhou smiled gratefully at her and continued, "Not long after the food boxes were delivered, the three maids who had an affair with me drove all the other maids away and knocked me out again."

"When I woke up again, I found that I had changed into a set of maid clothes and was locked in a strange room."

"I heard the voice of the vegetable seller and the concierge saying hello from outside. I knew I was in Fangfei Pavilion, so I hurriedly called for help."

"But soon I was discovered by the guards who were guarding me. They started to beat me, and they said that the second lady ordered them to do it. If I want to blame, I should blame the second lady..."

A loud bang came from above.

"I don't even recognize these people, Zhou Yan, don't talk nonsense!"

Meng Wan slammed the table and stood up, with a gloomy expression on her face, as if she would kill the person if she continued.

Miss Zhou was so frightened that she retracted into Chen Yuanli's arms and did not dare to say anything.

"Wan'er?" Chen Yuanli narrowed his eyes and looked at Meng Wan inquiringly.

Meng Wan glared back angrily, "Chen Yuanli, do you believe her or not me now?"

"Okay, stop messing around." Mrs. Meng persuaded patiently: "Let her talk and see what tricks she can come up with."

The word 'edited' reveals Mrs. Meng's attitude.

Mrs. Meng did not believe what Miss Zhou said and thought that Miss Zhou was lying.

Shen Jiaojiao's heart felt cold.

The foster mother is digging a hole for her.

If Ms. Zhou is lying, isn't that the same as questioning her who testified for Ms. Zhou?
Seeing her adoptive mother's unconditional love for Meng Wan again, she could no longer restrain her emotions and her eyes turned red.

"I didn't lie, those beasts said it all." Miss Zhou poked her head out of Chen Yuanli's arms and looked at the man in front of her.

"They also said that the second lady let them enjoy me as they pleased, and then they pulled out my tongue, muscle and leg tendons, and threw them into the lowest-grade brothel."

After saying these words, Miss Zhou threw herself into his arms again and broke down crying, as if she wanted to pour out all the grievances she had suffered.

"I have never done anything like this, and I have no idea what Miss Zhou is talking about." Meng Wan sneered.

As if receiving guidance from an expert, Meng Wan wiped away the anger on her face and turned to look at Shen Jiaojiao.

"Is this a drama arranged by you?"

Almost instantly, Shen Jiaojiao guessed Meng Wan's intention.

Does this person want to beat him up?
It's a pity that she only has more chips in her hand!

A sneer also appeared on her lips.

"Sister, you want to say that I and Miss Zhou have wronged you? In that case, you might as well listen to other people's testimonies."
