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

Chapter 19 Sisters Struggle
"Wan'er, what can't I do to you, sister? You want to tease me like this..."

Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head and knelt on the ground. Her body was in a mess, and even her fair face was stained with some crumbs.

Both embarrassed and pitiful.

She cried word by word, but no one answered her.

The person who should comfort her the most was currently holding the initiator and carefully examining the injured hand.

Without Mrs. Meng's order, the servants standing around did not dare to move.

The invited guests looked at each other in confusion, and then lowered their heads in pity. Looking at Shen Jiaojiao who was crying like a little animal, no one dared to speak first.

After waiting for a moment, but unable to wait for Meng Wan's explanation, Shen Jiaojiao slowly raised her head and looked over with tears in her eyes.

Meng Wan was left speechless by the question. She stared blankly at Shen Jiaojiao's shoulders and neck and kept mumbling.

"How come there isn't... it shouldn't be..."

The voice was so low that only Mrs. Meng could hear it.

Shen Jiaojiao asked her to explain, but she couldn't explain and didn't know how to explain.

She couldn't tell everyone that Shen Jiaojiao had an affair with someone last night. She did this to find evidence of Shen Jiaojiao's affair, but unfortunately she couldn't find it.

Mrs. Meng frowned when she heard Meng Wan's murmuring, recalling that Meng Wan had tried to lift Shen Jiaojiao's clothes several times this morning.

Mrs. Meng looked at her beloved daughter in disbelief.

Is it possible that Meng Wan's handiwork is really in it? !
Otherwise, why would she keep holding on to this matter?

"Ahem, this matter..." Mrs. Jiang coughed from above, sounding like she was trying to bring justice to the two women.

Madam Meng was startled, quickly came to her senses, and opened her mouth to cover for Meng Wan.

"What do you mean by Wan'er? Jiaojiao, don't think too much." Mrs. Meng said while glaring at Shen Jiaojiao.

The sharp look in her eyes suggested that if Shen Jiaojiao didn't follow her words, she would make Shen Jiaojiao look good.

Upon receiving the look from her adoptive mother, Shen Jiaojiao's breath froze, and tears fell from her eyes.

How could the foster mother protect Meng Wan indiscriminately?

"Wan'er is also worried about you. How can you say this about your sister?"

Mrs. Meng had her own way of distorting facts, and she quickly made things clear.

"Wan'er accidentally kicked the threshold and bumped into you. She was anxious. She wanted to pull you up, but she couldn't pull you up, and you pushed her. Didn't you see that the wound on your sister's hand was bleeding again?

"It's not that my adoptive mother isn't worried about you, it's just that Wan'er's injury is more important, not to mention that this injury is also caused by you...

"Besides, didn't Wan'er just ask me to go see you first? Your sister doesn't mean to laugh at you, and she doesn't make fun of you. Don't worry about it."

After those words, Shen Jiaojiao was directly beaten into a sinner.

Mrs. Meng went to see Meng Wan immediately because Meng Wan had an injury on her hand.

Where did the injury on your hand come from?

It was caused by her Shen Jiaojiao.

As for the words "marks on the body" that Meng Wan blurted out, Mrs. Meng simply ignored them and had no intention of explaining them.

Anyway, no one knows what exactly happened, so shouldn’t it be up to them to tell the right and wrong?
Only now did Shen Jiaojiao know from whom Meng Wan learned the skill of knocking down a rake.

She never thought that her adoptive mother would embarrass her in front of many guests.

How important is a woman's reputation?
What the adoptive mother said was, to put it mildly, a conflict in her daughter's family, but to put it more seriously, it was because Shen Jiaojiao could not tolerate her younger sister!
Careful people may also associate the two daughters with the same husband, thinking that she is narrow-minded and cannot tolerate her husband's concubine.

How could the adoptive mother directly label her as jealous because of Meng Wan?

Shen Jiaojiao took a deep breath.

No matter how weak and bully I am, I still can't give in even half a step today!
"Foster mother, these things are obviously my sister's fault, why do you only blame me?"

She climbed up from the ground with difficulty and looked down at Mrs. Meng. As he spoke, tears fell down his cheeks.

There was a sad and embarrassing smile on that beautiful face, which made everyone feel sad for her and pity her situation even more.

Mrs. Meng's expression tightened. Unexpectedly, Shen Jiaojiao did not swallow her anger and compromise, but asked back in tears.

For a moment, Mrs. Meng's face turned blue and white, and she felt a little unable to get off the stage.

If the argument continues, what happened this morning will only be revealed. If word spreads like this outside, Meng Wan's reputation of being jealous of her step sister will spread.

Maybe there will be some good people who will dig up the wedding half a year ago and arrange it...

Mrs. Meng clenched her molars and forced out a smile, "My foster mother didn't accuse you. Wan'er was indeed at fault in this matter, but you shouldn't either..."

Shen Jiaojiao intercepted Mrs. Meng's words and continued.

"You shouldn't say it in public. Family matters must be solved behind closed doors. Jiaojiao understands."

After speaking, she sniffed and saluted in Mrs. Meng's direction.

"Jiaojiao is dirty and her appearance is damaged. Please leave first. Wait for Jiaojiao to return to Mingzhu Courtyard and change her clothes, and then come and talk to her adoptive mother."

At this time, Mrs. Jiang suddenly stood up and walked towards Shen Jiaojiao, with unconcealable worry in her eyes.

"Jiaojiao, will Auntie go with you?"

Shen Jiaojiao shook her head, "Jiaojiao thanked aunt for her kindness. My maid is waiting outside, so I don't need to bother aunt."

"Oh, you kid!" Mrs. Jiang didn't think she was dirty and stretched out her hand to support her. Then she turned to look at Mrs. Meng and said with a smile: "Mrs. Meng, take good care of your youngest, I will send Jiaojiao back. They are two good kids, so we can’t be left out in the cold.”

This sentence undoubtedly gave the final word to this incident.

Both of them are good boys, and neither of them is wrong. There is no need to argue anymore.

Mrs. Meng was very happy when she heard what she said.

As long as Mrs. Jiang also believes that it was an accident, there will be no splash outside.

"Hey, go ahead, help me coax my Jiaojiao." Mrs. Meng waved her hand, letting Mrs. Jiang do as she pleased.

Mrs. Jiang lowered her head and looked at Shen Jiaojiao, "Look, your adoptive mother also asked me to follow you. Now you have nothing to say, right?"

Shen Jiaojiao responded softly and did not refuse.

"Hey, she has been spoiled by us since she was a child. She always wants to monopolize my favor. She also doesn't think about it. My sister has suffered so much outside and has just come back. Naturally, I will favor my sister... …”

Mrs. Meng's ridiculous words were gradually forgotten.

As soon as Shen Jiaojiao left the main hall, she was greeted by Keying from outside.

Seeing that she was in a mess, Ke Ying was startled and hurriedly ran over to hold her other side.

After leaving the main courtyard, Ke Yingcai asked with a trembling voice: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, help me back to the Pearl Courtyard to take a bath."

She didn't want to say more and shook her head slightly.

Mrs. Jiang looked at Shen Jiaojiao distressedly, "How did you get such a big heart, little girl? Are you so big-hearted? The mother and daughter are obviously trying to get you..."

Shen Jiaojiao coughed slightly and raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Jiang.

"Mrs. Jiang, I am the adopted daughter of the Meng family."

The implication is, stop badmouthing Mrs. Meng and Meng Wan, she doesn't want to hear it.

Mrs. Jiang looked at her and hesitated to speak. In the end, she just let out a long sigh and said no more.

What Shen Jiaojiao didn't know was that Meng Hui was sitting in the hexagonal pavilion not far away, looking at her from a distance.

It wasn't until she was helped into the gate of Mingzhu Courtyard that the sharp gaze was withdrawn.
