âIs she trying to deliberately distance herself from us?â Concubine Wan was a little angry, but she was more worried. She said to Shen Dongling, âDongling, is Fifth Miss siding with Madam and wants to deal with us together?â
âHow is that possible?â Shen Dongling shook her head. âBecause of Eldest Sister, they will never team up.â
',
âBut why does Fifth Miss always turn a blind eye to our goodwill?â Concubine Wan paced back and forth. âCould it be that she looks down on our backgroundâ¦â At this point, her voice darkened.â After all, she is the daughter of the first branchâ¦â
âMother.â Shen Dongling put down her book and said with a headache, âWhat are you thinking? Fifth Sister doesnât want to have anything to do with us not because of our background. She is not close to anyone in the Shen family. Iâm afraid she doesnât want to have anything to do with the second branch, so she ignored us. In that case, itâs useless to curry favor with her. Itâs better to do less in the future.â
âButâ¦â Concubine Wan wanted to say something.
âNo buts.â Shen Dongling interrupted her. âLetâs just behave ourselves and make sure nothing goes wrong. Naturally, we wonât get into trouble.â
On the other side, Jingzhe, who had returned to the house, asked Shen Miao in a low voice, âMiss, will Second Madam really drug Second Master?â
âOf course.â Shen Miao looked at her nails and said casually, âRen Wanyun values her children the most. Now that she has lost a son and a daughter in a row, Shen Yuanbai is the only one left. However, Shen Gui is not a kind person. Only by drugging Shen Gui can she protect Shen Yuanbaiâs position.â
âBut what if Second Madam tells Second Master about this?â Gu Yu had always been worried about this.
',
âShe wonât. If Shen Gui finds out that he was drugged with an infertility pill, he will definitely hate Ren Wanyun to the core. Even if Shen Yuanbai is his only child, he will still take his anger out on him. To keep Shen Yuanbai safe, Ren Wanyun will do all she can to keep it a secret. Perhaps Shen Gui will never find out that he canât have children anymore.â
âThenâ¦â Jingzhe gritted her teeth, as if she was hesitating about something. Finally, she made up her mind and said,â Even if Second Madam successfully drugged Second Master and made him unable to have any children, doesnât he still have Seventh Young Master? Seventh Young Master is still young now. When he grows up, he will probably take revenge on Miss for Second Young Master and Eldest Miss. Miss, arenât you raising an enemy for yourself? You even made that oath⦠â Shen Miao swore in front of Ren Wanyun that she would not have any designs on Shen Yuanbai. Otherwise, she would be struck to death by lightning.
âSince I swore, I have no intention of harming Shen Yuanbai,â Shen Miao said.
âEven so, Seventh Young Master will still treat Miss as his enemy.â Gu Yu reminded her, âHaving an enemy by our side all day longâ¦â
âThat will depend on whether or not he can grow up to take revenge.â Shen Miao smiled. Unfortunately, Shen Yuanbai did not have the chance to grow up.
A year later, there was a plague in the capital, and Shen Yuanbai died of smallpox. At that time, everyone in the capital was in a panic. Fortunately, Shen Xin and the others were away in the northwest and werenât affected. The big families in the capital were fine, but many poor people died.
Shen Miao had always believed in retribution. In her previous life, Shen Yuanbai paid with his life for what Shen Gui and his wife did. However, the second branch still had Shen Yuan and Shen Qing. Without Shen Yuan and Shen Qing in this life, the second branch would eventually cease to exist.
