A momentter, Concubine Wan walked in with Jingzhe. Shen Miao looked up at her.
Concubine Wan was wearing a dark blue cloth jacket and a green pleated skirt. There was a in silver bracelet on her wrist, making her look not vulgar but rather elegant. Her hands were pair and slender and her body was voluptuous. Most men would find it hard to take their eyes off of her. Looking up, Shen Miao saw an oval face, big eyes, fair skin, and red lips. When Concubine smiled, although she tried her best to restrain herself, her charm was still obvious.
This was a woman who knew she should hide her charm and stay away from the limelight. However, she was in too much of a hurry to make a move. As soon as Shen Qing died and Ren Wanyun went crazy, she started to n her schemes. Shen Miao had seen many such people in her previous life back in the pce harem. Some were smart, and some were beautiful. They thought that as long as they wanted, they could firmly control a man’s heart. Little did they know that there were countless gorgeous beauties in the world, and a man’s heart was the most unpredictable. If they could restrain themselves from appearing too impatient, they might have a chance to grab a ce in a man’s heart. However, once they lost their patience, they tended to be the first ones to die.
Concubine Wan was obviously the kind of person who thought she was smart.
Concubine Wan bowed to Shen Miao and sat down on the table opposite her. She was sitting sideways, and her legs were slightly tilted, making her shape look very curvaceous. Shen Miao looked at her calmly and went straight to the point. “Concubine Wan, why brought you here today?”
Concubine Wan did not expect Shen Miao to be so straightforward, which made her stunned for a moment. She heard that Shen Xin and his wife were the most powerful in the Shen family now, and that the most useless Fifth Miss had turned out to be not so useless. She wanted to curry favor with Shen Miao, but she did not expect Shen Miao to not even bother to greet her. Concubine Wan was a little confused, not knowing if Shen Miao didn’t know the very basics of etiquette or if she did it on purpose.
In fact, Concubine Wan was thinking too much. Shen Miao couldn’t be bothered to talk to her because a concubine was not worthy of her attention.
Concubine Wan smiled apologetically and said, “It’s almost the end of the year. I came to see Fifth Miss to wish you a happy new year.” She said, “It seems that Fifth Miss has been on bad terms with Second Master and Madam because of Eldest Miss. I apologize to you on their behalf and hope you won’t take it to heart.”
Shen Miao looked at her with a faint smile. “Concubine Wan, do Second Uncle and Second Aunt know that you’re apologizing on their behalf?”
Concubine Wan was stunned for a moment, but she continued with a smile, “It’s naturally not my ce to apologize for them, but I heard from Second Master that he was a little impulsive that day so he did something he shouldn’t have. I took the initiative toe and apologize. I hope Fifth Miss will not mind.”
Shen Miao looked at her without blinking. Under Shen Miao’s gaze, Concubine Wan looked a little uneasy, but she quickly suppressed it. She smiled and continued, “Actually, Third Miss also wants toe and see Fifth Miss. After all, you are all cousins. However, Third Miss has been a little sicktely. She said that she wille and greet Fifth Miss when she’s feeling better.”
Shen Dongling? Shen Miao raised an eyebrow.
In addition to the three legitimate daughters, there was also an illegitimate daughter, Shen Dongling from the second branch, who was born to Concubine Wan. In the Shen family, the third branch, Shen Wan and Chen Ruoqiu, only had Shen Yue. Shen Xin and his wife only had Shen Miao and Shen Qiu. The second branch, Shen Gui, had a lot of concubines and illegitimate daughters. However, most of them died very young.
