Chapter 45 Kill him
Shen Jiaojiao and Wei Lan looked at each other and decided to go to the other courtyard to meet the elders first.

Along the way, I met many familiar faces, all of whom were impressed by Mrs. Chiang’s exquisite ingenuity.

This year's plum blossom appreciation banquet was extremely elegant. The banquet was held at the Plum Village in the plum forest halfway up Meishan Mountain. Everyone gathered in the courtyard at the foot of the mountain. Those who were interested could climb up to admire the plum blossoms, while those who were afraid of the cold could go up the mountain in sedan chairs.

As soon as Shen Jiaojiao and Shen Jiaojiao entered the other courtyard, the lady in front of them waved to them.

The two walked over hand in hand and bowed solemnly to everyone.

The noble lady covered her lips and smiled softly, "You have to be Jiaojiao, you can cure this naughty thing in my family in one go."

"Mom!" Wei Lan was unhappy when she heard this and became angry.

Shen Jiaojiao couldn't help being stunned, quickly raised her eyes to glance at the lady, and then quickly looked away.

The leading lady is Mrs. Wei.

In the past, Mrs. Wei always treated her indifferently, neither happy nor annoyed. Today, she was a little flattered by the sudden intimacy.

Mrs. Wei pulled Wei Lan over and took her to meet other ladies.

Seeing this, Shen Jiaojiao stood back to Mrs. Meng and stood side by side with Meng Wan.

Meng Wan's entire face turned red and he glared at her several times angrily.

"Wan'er, what's wrong with sister?" She looked at Meng Wan in confusion.

"There is nothing wrong." Meng Wan squeezed out these words through her teeth with a sullen face, gritting her teeth with hatred in her heart.

The closer the two get closer, the more intense the contrast becomes.

Meng Wan didn't want to be the green leaves that complemented the red flower of Shen Jiaojiao, and wished she could stay far away from him.

Suddenly, a childish sigh came from beside him.

"Wow! This fairy sister is so beautiful!"

Meng Wan's expression froze, and she secretly resented this blind girl.

Shen Jiaojiao lowered her head and looked over. A little girl with a bun in a bun was pointing at her, with love and admiration written all over her round little face.

This child's words seemed to have been exposed.

The ladies' whispers instantly amplified, and they all cast envious glances at Shen Jiaojiao.

Several young ladies from aristocratic families who were friends with her gathered around and praised her for her elegant and elegant appearance today.

Shen Jiaojiao suddenly realized.

It turned out to be this reason.

She and Meng Wan stand together, and they are the biological daughter and adopted daughter of the Meng family respectively, so it is inevitable that they will be compared.

Perhaps because she had been living abroad, Meng Wan was very face-conscious and was most afraid of others saying something bad about her. She would be picky about everything from her appearance to her clothing.

Unfortunately Wei Lan refused to let Meng Wan go...

"Does a pheasant want to become a phoenix?" Wei Lan said in the distance, her eyes almost glued to Meng Wan.

Minghuanghuang told everyone that he was talking about Meng Wan.

There was a faint sound of ridicule.

Meng Wan was very angry after hearing this. She kept wringing her fingers and glared at Shen Jiaojiao angrily.

She didn't dare to glare at Wei Lan, so she could only vent her anger at Shen Jiaojiao.

Shen Jiaojiao had a headache. She gave Wei Lan an angry look and told her to shut up. She also said a few good words for Meng Wan to expose the matter.

After greetings, people started to go out to enjoy the plum blossoms.

Shen Jiaojiao also followed Mrs. Meng out of the other courtyard.

She was refreshed by the cold wind outside, and her groggy mind became much clearer.

Wei Lan came over and wanted to go up the mountain with her.

Mrs. Meng gave a few gentle words of warning and then let her go.

In Lin'an City, the Wei family ranks first, and even the richest Meng family has to take a back seat - the Meng family has no foundation in the officialdom, and it is difficult to maintain it just relying on the relationships Meng Hui has made abroad.

In recent years, the Meng family has also sponsored many students from poor families, but few have reached the top.

Now, the Meng family is putting their chips on Chen Yuanli.

Although his character is not good, his knowledge is solid!
……

Shen Jiaojiao and Wei Lan took the less traveled path and explored the depths of the plum forest.

Mrs. Jiang had just sent people to clear the mountain the day before. Meishan was very safe at the moment.

The two of them walked around, admiring the plum blossoms and chatting, which was a unique experience. Suddenly, Wei Lan grabbed her and said, "Look at this plum tree, it's blooming so beautifully."

She followed Wei Lan's finger and looked up, and she saw a red plum tree.

"It's so beautiful!" She was filled with amazement. "Like you, she is born with passion."

Wei Lan's cheeks were slightly red and she smiled and said, "Just like you, she's so pretty."

The two of them had a perfect tacit understanding and did not mention that Shen Jiaojiao might be pregnant, not wanting to be affected by bad emotions.

"Is there just one red plum here?" Shen Jiaojiao suddenly asked.

She thought of something important, and with her little hands retracted in her sleeves, she touched the white porcelain vase that had been closed.

Wei Lan nodded, "This is the only one."

After thinking about it again and again, Shen Jiaojiao still didn't want to hide it from her friend, so she could only pull the person closer and pray in a low voice: "Alan, I have an appointment with someone, and we will make an appointment here. Can you do it for me..."

"Okay." Wei Lan nodded in agreement before she finished speaking, "Do you want me to help you lure Ke Xin away, and then meet that person alone?"

"Ah."

"is it safe?"

"Safety."

"Okay." Wei Lan agreed, and he kept his word, and quickly found an excuse to lead the person away.

Wei Lan has always been like this. Whenever Shen Jiaojiao wants to do something, he will never say no.

Shen Jiaojiao only waited for a short moment before someone walked out of the woods on the side.

The person who came was about forty years old, with half white hair and a short beard. He was tall and burly, giving people a sense of oppression in strength.

"Miss." The man came closer and saluted her respectfully.

She nodded slightly and said, "Uncle Mo, there is no need to be polite."

Mo Gan stood up and looked down at her, with a sharp edge shining in the depths of his dark eyes.

Shen Jiaojiao pursed her lips and handed out the small porcelain bottle in her hand, "The tea is here, could you please find out what medicine was drugged in it."

A hint of coolness passed from the porcelain bottle to her fingertips.

Her fingertips couldn't help but tremble, and she could hardly hold the porcelain bottle.

Mo Gan reached out to take it, unscrewed the cork, put it under his nose and sniffed, then frowned.

"There's no smell?" he muttered to himself.

Any medicine should leave a smell when mixed with tea.

There are few truly colorless and odorless poisons in the world.

"Aoxue can't find out what it is, so I can only trouble you." Shen Jiaojiao sighed, "Remember not to be too showy to avoid alerting the enemy."

"I understand." Uncle Mo nodded.

After talking about the business, both of them fell silent.

The wind blows, blowing down some red plums, dyeing the vast world with a touch of red.

Shen Jiaojiao stretched out her hand to catch a petal and asked casually, "Why is Mo Wei searching around the Meng Mansion?"

Mogan was silent for a moment and replied: "Miss, she went in to help you find evidence."

The implication is that he arranged for people to go in to search for evidence that the Meng family framed General Shen, not to fight for Shen Jiaojiao, your adopted mother and adopted sister.

She responded in a low voice, feeling a chill in her heart.

Uncle Mo didn't seem to care about her situation, he was just using her to find evidence of crime.

No wonder her adopted brother told her to be wary of outsiders...

"Hidden Guard, kill him!"

A familiar voice came from behind.

Shen Jiaojiao was stunned on the spot. After a moment, she realized what she was doing and turned to look at the source of the sound.

The moment she saw Meng Hui, she was shocked and turned around in a hurry to ask Mo Gan to leave.

Mo Gan has long disappeared.

Meng Hui stood in front of her in the blink of an eye, his face as dark as water, and he stared at her with sullen eyes.

"Shen Jiaojiao!" The man gritted his teeth.
