Chapter 55 Don’t hurt her

"This is a good thing. If my uncle stays overnight, the young lady can prove her innocence."

As she said that, Keying's face turned red and she raised her eyes to look at Shen Jiaojiao, "The young lady's natural beauty will definitely make my uncle change his mind..."

"Okay." Shen Jiaojiao interrupted.

Ke Ying thought she had said something wrong and hurriedly knelt down.

Seeing her grinning expression, Shen Jiaojiao looked distressed and winked at Kexin.

Kexin understood and helped Keying up.

The two maids knelt for a whole day and a night without knowing how to put a cloth bag on their knees. It was too serious and made her feel distressed for nothing.

"Kexin, go find Aoxue and get some medicine. You should be careful with your knees." Shen Jiaojiao said.

"Yes." Kexin responded, and after going out, she thoughtfully closed the door for the two of them.

Ke Ying realized that her young lady had something to say, so she quickly straightened her back and waited for instructions.

"Ahem, um..." She cleared her throat and lowered her head in embarrassment.

"I didn't plan to tell you this originally, but the situation is different now, and I must make it clear to you."

"I know that as a maid, you naturally trust the Meng family. It is normal for you to go to your step-brother for help yesterday, but... things between me and my step-brother are difficult to talk about."

Shen Jiaojiao blushed and whispered these words that made her extremely ashamed.

"Four days ago, my sworn brother and I performed the ceremony of Duke Zhou."

"What?!" Ke Ying was so shocked that she jumped up.

Shen Jiaojiao sighed, "Anyway, my relationship with my sworn brother is very complicated. If anything happens in the future, especially about me, don't come to him."

She would rather tell Keying than let herself fall into the trap again!

After thinking for a while, she told what happened a few days ago, along with her suspicions about Meng Wan.

Knowing that it was Meng Wan's handiwork, Ke Ying gritted her teeth in anger.

"How can the second young lady do such a thing?!"

"She has an impure mind, and I really can't deal with it." Shen Jiaojiao shook her head and sighed, "She made things difficult for me three times that day, just to find out the traces on my body and kill me."

Recalling that Meng Wan tore off her young lady's clothes in front of many ladies, Ke Ying was frightened and even started scolding her friends.

"Kexin is so stupid!"

In Ke Ying's eyes, if Ke Xin hadn't mistrusted the young man, her young lady would never have suffered such a thing.

"Okay, it's not Kexin's fault." Shen Jiaojiao turned her head and looked in the direction of Hanliyuan with a cold look in her eyes, "If I'm to blame, it's just Meng Wan who has a vicious mind."

Then she told about Merlin.

However, she deliberately concealed the existence of Mo Gan's group and only said that they were the people she was looking for outside to deal with Meng Wan.

Knowing that she had ruined the young lady's good deeds again, Ke Ying was extremely upset and at the same time full of worry in her heart.

She was very smart and remembered that the young lady was poisoned yesterday and that the young lady failed to come out of Qinghui Courtyard all day and night.

"Miss, last night you..."

The words came to my lips but I couldn't ask them.

Shen Jiaojiao's face suddenly turned red, even the base of her ears turned red.

Seeing this scene, what else does Ke Ying not understand? I felt increasingly annoyed.

She was well aware of Shen Jiaojiao's desire for family affection, and she also knew that her young lady only had a sworn brother-sister relationship with the eldest young master.

The young lady treats the young master as a relative...

If she hadn't gone to get the clothes, or insisted on taking the lady to another wing, wouldn't something have happened?
"It's okay." Shen Jiaojiao saw that she was blaming herself, so she pulled her to his bed and sat down, holding her hand and comforting her: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Once is familiar, twice is familiar. Anyway, this is not the first time.

As for how to face my adopted brother in the future...

Besides, she can't think clearly now.

"Miss!"

Kexin's whirring sound came from outside the door.

"Come in." Shen Jiaojiao said.

Ke Xin pushed the door open, threw the ointment she got from Aoxue to Ke Ying, and turned around to close the door tightly. "The young master has arrested the person who spread the rumors to the government. I heard that Mr. Wei is very concerned about her." Ke Xin said and sighed, "The young master still cares about the young lady, but I really can't count on you."

"My uncle has no power, so naturally he is no better than..."

Keying was about to speak for Chen Yuanli when she suddenly remembered what happened to her young lady and young master, so she shut her mouth.

Shen Jiaojiao didn't care about the rumors, but was more concerned about the villain who was imprisoned in prison.

"Did you know how the Yamen will deal with the Lin family's concubine?"

If she could, she would definitely cut off the man's life with her own hands to relieve the hatred in her heart!
……

Mengxianju, elegant room.

Guangshan hurriedly pushed open the door and whispered in Meng Hui's ear: "The eldest lady has returned to Mingzhu Courtyard."

Meng Hui nodded indifferently, as if he didn't care.

Guangshan wisely retreated behind Meng Hui.

"Mr. Meng, please." Li Shang, who was sitting across the round table, poured a cup of tea for Meng Hui with a smile.

The scent of tea floats out from the jade-white tea cup.

Meng Hui reached out and held the tea cup in his palm, "Tell me, how is the investigation going?"

"The rumors outside have been controlled, and all those spreading have been sent to the government, but..."

Li Shang's smile faded and he became serious.

"I only found out that the source is a beggar in the west of the city. I haven't found the specific person who caused the beggar to spread it."

"It doesn't matter. Take them all back and interrogate them carefully. There will always be those who are weak and willing to talk." A cold light flashed in Meng Hui's eyes.

"I really can't figure out why the people behind the scenes want to plot against the eldest lady? The eldest lady is already married..."

"Maybe their target is not Shen Jiaojiao, but Jiang Yi beside her."

"I suspected the same thing, and we quickly sealed off Meizhuang, but we couldn't find the maid who knocked down the eldest lady. It seems... the person who came here is well-trained."

As he spoke, Li Shang's eyes shone brightly and his face was determined.

"Maybe this is a game against the Jiang family, but the other party hit the wrong person."

Meng Hui nodded slightly, "Chalin family, please find a way to pass the information we have to Governor Jiang."

"As expected of General Shang Meng, what a strategy to drive away tigers and swallow wolves!" Li Shang admired and hurried out to make arrangements.

Meng Hui pondered for a moment and called out the hidden guards.

"Have you found the man who was seriously injured by you?"

"No." The hidden guard lowered his head, "That man probably did not return to Lin'an. I saw his footprints entered the mountains, and he probably left Lin'an."

"Go to Yichun Yuan and confirm whether there is this person in the secret organization of Yichun Yuan." Meng Hui ordered.

The hidden guard took the order and left.

Only then did Meng Hui notice that Guangshan was still there and glanced back at him.

"Anything else?"

Guangshan swallowed his saliva and bravely reported, "My uncle is staying at Mingzhu Courtyard tonight."

"Send someone to provoke Meng Wan into trouble, and try not to disturb Shen Jiaojiao."

Meng Hui's eyes deepened, and after drinking all the tea in the white jade tea cup, he stood up and left.

Guangshan hurriedly followed, "Madam seemed to be planning to spread the rumors, and she stopped urgently when she heard the rumors outside."

"Keep an eye on her, don't hurt her."

This 'she' refers to Shen Jiaojiao.

Guangshan responded, not daring to disturb his master anymore, turned around and left.

Meng Hui sat back again, staring at the tea cup in front of him with a heavy look, deep in thought.

Why does mother always target Shen Jiaojiao?
Recalling what Shen Jiaojiao said yesterday in a dazed state, Meng Hui became increasingly confused.

Was mother really just doing his homework and not letting Shen Jiaojiao disturb him?
