Chapter 170 Spoiled

"Brother, the miracle doctor is right."

When Shen Jiaojiao heard this, she wanted to withdraw her hand.

"This little injury will heal quickly, so there's no need to trouble the miracle doctor."

It's just a minor burn, why should I owe a favor to a miracle doctor?

I still don’t know how to pay it back.

Meng Hui held her hand skillfully, not letting her break away or pinching her.

"Mr. Qian has great medical skills and will not leave scars on your hands."

As he said that, the man turned to look at Mr. Qian.

"Stop nagging, you can take a look at the injuries as long as you have."

Mr. Qian snorted angrily, sat up straight, leaned in front of Shen Jiaojiao's hand, and examined it carefully.

"You were just burned?"

"Yes."

"Why are you so careless?"

Shen Jiaojiao: "..."

She couldn't answer this.

"Does it hurt?" Mr. Qian asked again.

"Well, my whole hand was burning." She described her feelings in detail, "It was fine when I put it in the water, but it hurt again not long after I took it out of the water."

Mr. Qian rolled his eyes, "Isn't this what burns are like? Who hasn't been burned before? It looks so delicate."

She lowered her head guiltily.

Are burns like this?
She has been well protected since she was a child, and has maids to do all the trivial things around her. This is really the first time for her...

"Jiaojiao has never suffered like this." Meng Hui defended her, and then reminded Mr. Qian again, "Treat the wound first."

Mr. Qian looked at Meng Hui, then at Shen Jiaojiao, and muttered, "You, the Meng family, have a conscience and have taken good care of her."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the house.

"Come in, I'll take care of it for you."

This is an agreement to treat her.

Shen Jiaojiao responded and was about to stand up when she saw her sworn brother bending down and trying to carry her over.

As soon as the big palm touched her knee, it was dodged away before she could exert any force.

"No need, I can walk there by myself."

She refused in a low voice and followed the miracle doctor with small steps, walking very fast.

Looking at it, it felt a bit like running away, as if a deadly evil spirit was following behind.

Meng Hui's hands froze in mid-air.

After a while, he slowly withdrew his hand, his expression dark and unclear.

"Master, there is news from the Jiang family..." Yuzhu walked in quickly and lowered his voice: "They say you are doing well. Mrs. Jiang sent someone to ask if you really want to marry Miss Jiang."

"Performing well?" Meng Hui's eyes flashed and he looked thoughtfully at the direction where Shen Jiaojiao disappeared.

Just now, he left Jiang Yi in the teahouse for Shen Jiaojiao. Can this be considered a 'good performance'?
"Is Jiang Yi Mrs. Jiang's biological daughter?"

"Reporting to the young master, I sent someone to investigate the Jiang family. Miss Jiang is indeed Mrs. Jiang's biological daughter. There is no conflict between mother and daughter."

As for why Mrs. Jiang is like this, Yuzhu can't guess.

Could it be that because of the young master's pity for his adopted sister, Mrs. Jiang thought that after getting married, the young master would also cherish his first wife?
Meng Hui pondered for a moment and then ordered: "Go and tell them that everything will continue as usual."

Yuzhu didn't respond and stood there motionless.

Meng Hui turned around and looked over, "What's wrong?"

"Master, the eldest lady will be sad."

Yuzhu has always followed the rules. She is not as good at martial arts as Yumei, nor as eloquent as Guangshan. Her only bright spot is her caution.

This is also the reason why Meng Hui uses her.

Today, she risked being scolded and made an exception for Shen Jiaojiao...

Meng Hui glanced at Yuzhu unexpectedly.

"You have a good relationship with her."

"The eldest lady has a gentle temper and is sincere in her treatment of others. She is a child who has grown up under the supervision of my servant. Naturally, I pity her." "She has a good relationship with everyone." Meng Hui curled his lips, and a trace of ridicule flashed in the depths of his pupils. .

She has a very good relationship with Chen Yuanli, and she talks and laughs with Jiang Yi. There is no one she can't get along with!

Yuzhu heard the anger in Meng Hui's words and did not dare to say anything nice for Shen Jiaojiao.

Meng Hui waited for a moment, but did not wait for Yuzhu to speak. He suddenly felt bored and waved her hand to let her go.

Yuzhu nodded, turned around and left.

"Wait a minute." Meng Hui called to her, "Send two tight-lipped spies to investigate the relationship between the Jiang family and the Shen family."

"Master, what you mean is..." Yuzhu was shocked.

Does the Shen family refer to the eldest lady’s mother’s family who was exterminated?
But the Shen family has been destroyed for more than ten years, what else can be found?

Besides, the Jiang family is based in the capital and is highly trusted by the current emperor. How could it be related to the Shen family, which is a collaborator with the enemy and treason?

"You go check it out first, focusing on Mrs. Jiang."

After Meng Hui finished speaking, he walked towards the hall.

"Yes." Yuzhu bowed respectfully.

……

Shen Jiaojiao followed Mr. Qian into the pharmacy, and under his instructions, sat back down at the desk.

Mr. Qian went around to the back, brought in a basin of warm water, opened the drawer under the desk, touched a small white porcelain bottle, unscrewed the cork, and poured some liquid into the water.

A strange fragrance wafted from the water.

Shen Jiaojiao sniffed it and said in surprise: "What kind of fragrance is this? It smells good."

Old Man Qian replied without looking up: "Secret."

Seeing that the old man refused to talk, she didn't force it and sat on the stool obediently, waiting for treatment.

Just when she couldn't bear the pain and frowned, Mr. Qian pushed the basin in front of her.

"Put your hand in and soak it."

Hearing this, she immediately put her hand in.

As soon as her palm dipped into the water, she screamed in pain and quickly withdrew her hand.

Qian Lao quickly pressed her whole hand in with quick eyes and hands.

Shen Jiaojiao was so painful that her tears flowed down.

How can she still look like a noble lady?

"Squeamish!" Qian Lao frowned and scolded her, "Isn't it just a burn? How can it be so painful?!"

Her eyes widened, this was warm water!
Her hands were already burned. She should have used cold or ice water instead of warm water.

"Alas! The Meng family really spoils you rotten!"

Mr. Qian sighed, then turned his gun and counted Meng Hui down.

"It's just a little burn. I don't know what Mr. Meng is worried about. The man I met before was clearly not this reckless."

Shen Jiaojiao blushed when she heard the profound meaning in Qian's old words, and quickly answered: "My adopted father, adopted mother and adopted brother treat me very well."

This was to clear up the relationship between her and her adopted brother.

The two are sworn brothers and sisters, and they will only be sworn brothers and sisters.

Mr. Qian chuckled, looked at her with squinted eyes, and said teasingly: "Oh, I'm so old, I can't understand the feelings of young people."

She opened her mouth, wanting to argue, but then she remembered that the poison in her body had already explained everything, so she could only shut her mouth in frustration.

Jiang Yi's words rang in my mind——

"She hurt her hands, not her legs."

"Although you are brothers and sisters in name, you are actually brothers and sisters with no blood relationship."

"How is it appropriate to hug and hug like this?"

……

Shen Jiaojiao was shocked to realize how inappropriate what Meng Hui had just done——

He actually left Jiang Yi behind in public and walked out with her in his arms.

I don’t know how many people watched this scene.

What would the world think of her and her adopted brother?
What would Jiang Yi be thinking?
"Look, you don't have anything to say." Mr. Qian chuckled, "He's quite interested in you."
