But at the other end, Wan YiNiang hurriedly returned to her own courtyard and closed the door before taking three steps forward and said to the figure sitting behind the screen, "Ling-er."
The figure behind the screen paused for a moment and looked towards Wan YiNiang. Wan YiNiang heaved a sigh of relief and sat down on the wooden chair before repeating everything that she had said to Shen Miao today from beginning to end. She was originally a Hua Dan actor and her memory was very good, thus she recited the conversation between the two of them as if it happened right in front of her. After finishing, Wan YiNiang then said, "Ling-er, what exactly does Fifth Young Lady's words mean? My heart felt somewhat cold when I heard it. Do you think that Eldest Young Lady's matter is related to Fifth Young Lady? "
"YiNiang must speak cautiously." The person behind the screen said, "Eldest Sister's matter is already in the past and what is said outside is what is said. One must never mention this matter again, otherwise one would only harm oneself."
"I just feel that my heart is somewhat uneasy." Wan YiNiang said.
A slight sigh came from behind the screen. The person who was sitting put down the embroidery in her hands and stood up before walking to Wan YiNiang's side.
That was also a delicate and beautiful young female. Compared to Shen Qing's generosity, Shen Yue's elegance and Shen Miao's dignity, this young female appeared soft and weak. Her facial features were somewhat like Wan YiNiang's and she had an oval face and big eyes. If her eyes were more quick-witted, most likely she would be scolded as a little vixen. But her expression was pale and even her lips were bloodless. As such, that little bit of seductiveness was reduced and she looked somewhat harmless.
She was wearing an old washed goose yellow coloured dress which could possibly belong to Wan YiNiang. This young female's body was not as developed as Wan YiNiang's and when she wore it, it was somewhat big and empty, thus her beauty was reduced and she looked somewhat ordinary.
That young female was the Shu daughter of the Shen family's Second household, Shen Dong Ling.
"Now everything is much better than before." Shen Dong Ling comforted, "At least YiNiang and I can openly go out and no longer need to be threatened by Furen."
"This Shen residence is not easy to get by." Wan YiNiang looked at her daughter and her heart turned sour, "In the beginning I was greedy for riches and thought that after entering the Shen residence, one would be able to sleep easy for the rest of one's life. Who knew that being in a noble family is also so tough. For so many years, in order to survive under Madam's eyes, you have no choice but to live like this. The people in this manor are also very powerful. Even the originally quiet Fifth Young Miss looks really scary now … "
"Yiniang," Shen Dong Ling shook her head, "Regardless of whether Eldest Sister's matter is related to Fifth Younger Sister, the person behind the scenes has helped us. It will be very difficult for Furen to make a comeback now. Even if Second Brother is powerful and Furen has the reputation, she has no hope of the past and will not be able to compete with us. "
"That is also true." Wan YiNiang looked at Shen Dong Ling with a gratified expression, "Finally it is over. But Ling 'er, today you asked me to test Fifth Miss, but Fifth Miss is quite cold to me. I'm afraid she doesn't want to accept our goodwill. What should we do now? "
"Do not accept then do not accept." Shen Dong Ling smiled, "Fifth Younger Sister seems to be an intelligent person. Since that is the case, it is better not to provoke her in the future. If it is possible, it is also good to let her deal with Second Older Brother. "
"Second Young Master?" Wan YiNiang was surprised for a moment, "Second Young Master has already entered officialdom and Fifth Young Lady is only a young lady. How can she deal with Second Young Master?"
"YiNiang can rest assured." Shen Dong Ling said, "Fifth Younger Sister is not a simple character. She is the sharpest knife in the Shen residence."
…
The small actions of the Eastern and Western courtyard of the Shen residence were most likely not known by the outside. Other than the people in the residence, most likely in the eyes of the other people in the Ding capital, the General residence was a happy and harmonious scene with benevolent and filial piety. This had always been the case before this year but unfortunately the things in the world were always changing. Sometimes when the seeds were buried too deep, it would germinate and grow at an unexpected time.
