Chapter 179 Xiaoyu, what are you doing?!
Just as she was about to touch the man, he suddenly stood up and jumped onto the desk!
Their eyes met, and Meng Yu was terrified by Zhao Yunjing's emotionless and cold gaze. She panicked, her scalp tingled, and she regretted it.
But she had taken off all her clothes except for her bodice!
"Young Master, I, I—"
"Xiaoyu, what are you doing?!"
Shui Sheng was also suddenly awakened. He didn't expect to see his beloved standing in front of the desk, almost naked, when he opened his eyes. His master had been forced to climb onto the table and was almost up the wall!
Meng Yu turned around, tears streaming down her face: "Brother Shuisheng, I, I, I won't either—"
"The young lady is your savior, and the madam has also been kind to you as if she had given you a second life. Although you are a maid in the Zhao family, you don't have to do any rough or heavy work. The young lady is not a spoiled or willful girl. She treats you like her own sister. The young lady also lets you study and learn arithmetic. She wants to cultivate you into a capable woman who can stand on her own in the future!"
"You wouldn't even get this kind of treatment in your own Meng family. You didn't even get to study in the Meng family! Everything you have now is given to you by the girl and the Zhao family. How can you turn around and harm the Zhao family and the girl? Meng Yu, I'm so disappointed in you. You're a heartless ingrate!" Shui Sheng finished cursing, tears streaming down his face. He really loved Meng Yu!
Meng Yu was so scolded that she couldn't even lift her head and was sobbing softly.
Just as Zhao Yunjing was about to jump off the table, Meng Yu suddenly shouted, "Yes! I am an ingrate! But the eldest young master is highly regarded by the emperor and is the future top scholar. He is humble and affectionate towards girls. He is so good, which girl wouldn't want to marry him? So what if the young lady is good to me? So what if I can stand on my own in the future? I will always be someone else's maid! I don't want to be a maid! I want to be a mistress! I want to be the wife of the top scholar!"
She suddenly ripped off her bodice and lunged at Zhao Yunjing: "Yunjing, you've seen everything about me, I've been yours for a long time—"
Shui Sheng pounced on her from behind, hugged her, and kissed her directly, while Zhao Yun Jing jumped out of the window without hesitation.
Shuisheng will take care of the rest.
There were several young maids in the house. Zhao Yunjing hadn't thought much of it at first, but Meng Yu's actions tonight had sounded an alarm for him. He didn't dare go back to his own room, so he went to Chu Jiu's room and spent the night with her. The next day, just as dawn broke, he climbed over the wall to the Zhou family and told Zhou Mujiao about Meng Yu.
"Meng Yu?"
Zhou Mujiao was surprised because Meng Yu gave her a very peaceful and docile feeling. Could it be that she was provoked and acted on a whim? Otherwise, it was just that her intuition had failed her.
With her intuition failing her, the mystical good fortune that had accompanied her for several years is likely to say goodbye soon.
Fortunately, her business empire had already been established, and her ability to become the president of a prosperous group in modern times, and to stand out from a group of male heir candidates to become the heir of the Zhou family, was due to her own ability and methods, not so-called good luck.
Zhou Mujiao wasn't afraid, but without the cheat code to help her identify people and spot scumbags, she would have to be even more careful in the future.
Jiang Wuyu was also having breakfast at home today. Zhao Yunjing didn't hide anything from him and mentioned Meng Yu's matter. Jiang Wuyu then asked him how to deal with Meng Yu.
"Get them out."
"If your servant pleads for me—"
“Once Shuisheng speaks, it means he has the intention to leave the Zhao family. I will not force someone whose heart is not in the Zhao family to stay; I will let him go directly.”
Jiang Wuyu nodded and then instructed, "If you're going to release her, release her far away. If she's still in the capital, then have someone keep an eye on her. I trust Shuisheng, but that girl is not one to stay put. She's been in the Zhao family for several months now, so she knows what she should know. I'm afraid she might also know things she shouldn't know."
Zhao Yunjing nodded, and Jiang Wuyu then looked at Zhou Mujiao: "If I were you, I would have Zhao Yunjing kill the person directly."
Zhou Mujiao did not speak.
Meng Yu's behavior last night was quite disloyal. In ancient times, a disloyal person would be beaten to death or torn apart by five horses. But she comes from modern times. She may not be able to find fairness and justice in a monarchical place, but she can at least respect life, even if she finds Meng Yu disgusting.
However, the crime does not warrant death.
Jiang Wuyu laughed: "For an official, being too kind is not a good thing. Ajiao, you are so soft-hearted, and you have wasted so many years of being called a 'shady merchant'. Leave Meng Yu to me!"
Jiang Wuyu is a government official. Although he speaks harshly, he acts in accordance with the law. Unless someone is extremely wicked, like Meng Yu who betrays his master, he will at most be beaten up and thrown out. He will not actually take the person's life.
Therefore, Zhao Yunjing and Zhou Mujiao had no objection to handing Meng Yu over to Jiang Wuyu. Now it all depends on how Aunt Zhao arranges things.
"What can I do?" Aunt Zhao asked, puzzled. "I can't kill her, so I can only beat her up and throw her out the door. Ah Jiao, don't tell me you're going to keep her here."
Zhou Mujiao deliberately said, "I heard she's almost naked, but Brother Zhao has probably already seen everything."
"Shuisheng even hugged her. The steward saw it with his own eyes. If she were really that fierce, she should have married Shuisheng. But she didn't ask Shuisheng to take responsibility. She only demanded that our Zhao family take responsibility. It's clear that in her eyes, reputation is not as important as marrying into the Zhao family."
"Okay, then we'll do as you arrange, Auntie."
"You silly girl!" Aunt Zhao realized. "Are you testing your aunt? Luckily, I'm not the kind of old-fashioned parent, or I would have held a grudge against you."
Zhou Mujiao went over and hugged her arm, shaking it: "Auntie, please don't, please don't~~"
Who can resist a beautiful woman's coquettishness?
The answer is that no one can resist it!
Meng Yu was kicked out of the Zhao family that very day. She had originally planned to tell the story of how she and Zhao Yunjing fell in love but were thwarted by Zhou Mujiao in the capital, but she didn't get the chance. As soon as the Zhao family's gate closed, she was taken away by Jiang Wuyu's men. As for where she would be taken, no one knew.
At the same time, Miss Chen was also forcibly sent back to Peach Blossom County. When she heard the rumor about Zhao Yunjing as she left the city, she first laughed three times, and then burst into tears. No one knew why she was crying.
As for Young Master Chen, he himself was a playboy in the past, and countless young girls had been hurt by him. So even if Zhao Yunjing really had something going on with Meng Yu, he had no right to criticize her. He just felt sorry for Zhou Mujiao. However, all men are like this. If Zhao Yunjing was not worth it, then was he worth it?
Now that Zhao Yunjing is risking Meng Yu's gossip to kick him out, it only highlights his openness and how much he cares about Zhou Mujiao. Just these two points alone make him more worthy than himself.
"Young master, tomorrow is the day the results are announced. Why don't you change into some new clothes?"
"No, the uniforms from Canglan Academy are just fine."
Si Jiu silently swallowed back the words of advice he was about to say.
Young master, it's not that the uniforms of Canglan Academy are particularly good, but rather that Miss Zhou personally delivered them!
