Chapter 38 Disposal
"Miss, last night my uncle kept insulting the second lady, speaking rudely to you, and forcing the slave to imitate your words and deeds to serve him.

"My uncle also said that the young master looked down on him, that the master and his wife were fake, and that they would trample the Meng family under their feet after he reaches high school.

"My uncle even said that he wants me to be the first wife, and I will keep you and the second lady under me, and train you..."

Miss Zhou's voice became smaller and smaller, as if she was afraid that she would be angry.

Shen Jiaojiao frowned, but she didn't expect Chen Yuanli to have such thoughts in his heart.

What absurdity!

If you think about it carefully, it seems a bit natural.

Chen Yuanli's family background was not good, and he was easily criticized because of his relationship with the Meng family, who was not from the right family.

What's more... Chen Yuanli has a very strong self-esteem.

The more inferior a person is, the more arrogant he is.

Even if Meng Wan loved him wholeheartedly and treated him extremely well, whatever he wanted would be given to him without even asking.

On the contrary, he felt that Meng Wan was worthless.

Shen Jiaojiao was blinded by the joy of youth in the past, but she gradually figured it out in the past six months.

"You shouldn't have said these words to me, just forget them all." She sighed and warned carefully, "Live well when you get to Zhuangzi, and wait for Yuan Li to pick you up."

Miss Zhou raised her eyes and glanced at her, with a glimmer of light in her eyes.

"Miss, do you believe what I say?"

After saying that, as if she was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, Miss Zhou took two steps on her knees, almost lying on Shen Jiaojiao's knees.

"I assure you that every word and word I said is true and I did not lie."

Shen Jiaojiao lowered her eyes and looked down at Miss Zhou.

I really felt pity for him. No wonder Chen Yuanli couldn't wait a moment and forced him to do it that night. In the end, he put the responsibility on Meng Wan, as if Meng Wan put a knife on his neck and forced him to have sex with Miss Zhou.

This man is not worthy of anyone's liking!
Thinking of Chen Yuanli, Shen Jiaojiao felt sick and felt more and more urgent to leave.

She must find the evidence of her adoptive father's crime against General Shen as soon as possible, punish Meng Wan severely, and then leave this ghost place.

"I believe what you said, but don't tell anyone else, or anyone else." She stood up, helped Miss Zhou up, and looked at her charming face seriously.

"Miss..." Miss Zhou looked touched.

"Be well in Zhuangzi, wait for Yuan Li to pick you up."

She held the other person's slightly rough hand, with no trace of disgust on her face.

Miss Zhou laughed miserably, "Can I wait until this day?"

Shen Jiaojiao looked at Miss Zhou in surprise, not expecting that she was so smart.

……

main courtyard.

Mrs. Meng took Meng Wan to the east wing, sat on the small couch, and then ordered Qingqi to guard the door outside.

Meng Wan stood aside uneasily.

After a moment of silence, Mrs. Meng raised her eyes and looked steadily at Meng Wan.

"Wan'er, are you hiding something from me?"

Meng Wan answered bravely: "No, mother, I have nothing to hide from you."

"Really? Then what were you telling Jiaojiao just now?"

Meng Wan took a step back in fright and stammered, "Mother, mother, did you hear that?"

"I heard every word of what you said. Meng Wan, what on earth do you want to do? How long are you going to hide it from me?!" Mrs. Meng's eyes grew colder.

How dare Meng Wan say that?

How could she dare to tell what she had done after pretending to be innocent and weak for so long?

What if my mother hates her for being vicious?

"Mother, I don't have one."

Meng Wan knelt down, and her knees hit the ground hard, making a tooth-breaking sound.

"Wan..." A trace of distress flashed in Mrs. Meng's eyes, and she quickly hardened her heart.

"Don't think you can get away with it by pretending to be pitiful. Yesterday you deliberately upset Jiaojiao, and I heard everything you said. I guess the farce yesterday morning was not that simple, right?" After being the mistress of the house for so many years, Mrs. Meng is very shrewd. After a little bit of stringing together the recent events at home, I can make a very close guess.

Seeing that she couldn't hide anything, Meng Wan could only tell the truth.

For a moment, the only sound in the room was Meng Wan's stammering voice.

After hearing the whole process, Mrs. Meng glared at him fiercely, her face full of hatred.

"Are you looking for death for provoking your elder brother?!"

Meng Wan shrank her head, "I think the eldest brother was not in the house that day..."

"You are really, really mad at me!" Mrs. Meng was so angry that she threw a tea cup and gasped for air.

Meng Wan rushed over and apologized while patting Mrs. Meng on the back. "Mom, I know I was wrong. Don't be angry."

Mrs. Meng waited for a long time and then spoke again: "In that case, why doesn't Shen Jiaojiao have any problem?"

"Mother, Shen Jiaojiao must have lost her innocence." Meng Wan said firmly, "I sent my servant to keep an eye on Qinghui Courtyard last night, and he did see the lights in the west wing were brightly lit."

Mrs. Meng sighed, her head aching.

"Forget it, let's ignore this for now. The top priority is to find the 'adulterer' you arranged earlier and the boy who lied about the news. We can't let Shen Jiaojiao get the first step."

Meng Wan looked happy and quickly got up from the ground and came to Mrs. Meng's side.

"With my mother here, I feel relieved."

After saying that, he looked towards the direction of Mingzhu Courtyard.

So what if I have been an adopted daughter in the Meng Mansion for more than ten years?
Her mother is still on her side!
Shen Jiaojiao, just wait until your reputation is ruined and your husband abandons you!
"Why don't you worry? What if your elder brother finds out about doing something so reckless?"

Mrs. Meng gave her a hard look.

"Find the boy who is staring at Qinghui Courtyard, and I will ask again. In addition, you can no longer get involved in Zhuangzi's affairs. I will take care of it."

The 'handling' in Mrs. Meng's words was that when she comforted Meng Wan earlier, she promised to quietly get rid of the maid.

Meng Wan nodded obediently in agreement.

Mrs. Meng wanted to say more, but there was a knock on the door outside.

Qing Barley's voice followed, "Madam, Miss, just now the housekeeper came to report that two floating corpses were fished out of the lake."

Mrs. Meng's heart tightened. She glanced at Meng Wan hastily and said in a much louder voice, "Come in."

Qingmai walked to Mrs. Meng's side and said softly: "The housekeeper asked someone to identify them. One of them is from the young lady's courtyard, and the other is from the young master's courtyard. The specific cause of death will not be known until the widower comes for examination."

"Dead?!" Meng Wan turned pale with fright.

Everything was fine, why did someone die?

Who died? All the servants in her courtyard are here, except for the missing two...

Could it be that the elder brother discovered it?

Mrs. Meng saw what Meng Wan was thinking and glanced at her, "Why are you panicking? Maybe you slipped and fell?"

After saying that, he stood up and wanted to go have a look with Qingqi.

Meng Wan did not dare to go and see her. She stayed in the main courtyard and refused to leave, waiting for news about Mrs. Meng.

……

When the Meng Mansion was in chaos because of the discovery of two corpses, Shen Jiaojiao sent Miss Zhou to the front yard.

A simple carriage parked outside.

Shen Jiaojiao pinched her handkerchief and wiped away the tears on Miss Zhou's face, "Don't be afraid, I will send someone to protect you."

Miss Zhou saluted her gratefully, "Thank you, Miss."

Shen Jiaojiao was about to nod when she saw the woman in front of her suddenly her eyes lit up and she jumped out.

Tremendous cries burst out from Miss Zhou's throat.

"Master! Please help me!"

"Second Miss wants this slave's life!"

"Please make the decision for me!"

Shen Jiaojiao's heart skipped a beat and she hurriedly looked back, meeting her sworn brother's calm eyes.
