Venomous Empress Reborn - Chapter 530

530 I Want It (1)

Shen Yue caused a commotion in the Autumn Water Garden for a while. Unfortunately, this time, Chen Ruoqiu seemed to have made up her mind. No matter how Shen Yue begged, Chen Ruoqiu was unmoved. She was so angry that she wanted to lock Shen Yue up. Shen Yue panicked, but Chen Ruoqiu ignored her. When she left the Autumn Water Garden, she was angry and anxious.

A few people walked out of Rosy Cloud Garden. When the blue-clothed girl in the lead saw Shen Yue, she went forward and said, “Second Sister.”

Shen Yue glanced at the woman and nodded, but her attitude was cold.

This woman was none other than the illegitimate daughter of the second branch, Shen Dongling. In the past, Shen Dongling was suppressed by Ren Wanyun and did not leave the courtyard all year round. There were even servants in the Shen family who did not recognize her. Ever since the children in the second branch died, Shen Dongling became the only child. However, even so, on the surface, Shen Yue treated her gently, but in fact, she looked down on Shen Dongling because of her background. Even if she was the only child of the second branch now, it still did not change the fact that Shen Dongling was an illegitimate daughter.

However, Shen Dongling did not seem to notice her cold gaze. She continued with a smile, “I plan to get a few pieces of silk to make silk cloth. A few days ago, I heard my mother talking about some new embroidery patterns, so I wanted to make one. Second Sister, do you want some?”

“No need,” Shen Yue said.

Being treated coldly like this, Shen Dongling still said good-naturedly, “Nevermind then. I originally wanted to make a few for Second Sister.”

Shen Yue was a little annoyed. At this moment, she was so worried about having to marry someone that she couldn’t care less about anything else. She saw that Shen Dongling had her head lowered, revealing a fair neck, and a thought struck her. She turned around and carefully sized up Shen Dongling.

Shen Dongling and Shen Yue were only half a year apart in age. Among the legitimate daughters of the Shen family, Shen Qing was generous, Shen Yue was elegant, and Shen Miao was delicate. The three of them still had the temperament unique to legitimate daughters, but Shen Dongling had the charm of a concubine’s daughter. Back then, Concubine Wan was an actress in a troupe and was considered gorgeous. Shen Dongling did not look like Shen Gui, but she looked almost the same as the young Concubine Wan. Her eyes were big, and her chin was sharp, making her look like an outstanding concubine. However, compared to those ambitious concubines who wanted to climb up, Shen Dongling was more docile.

Shen Yue’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. She took the initiative to hold Shen Dongling’s hand and said with a smile, “I don’t want you to do it for me because I’m afraid I’ll tire you out. You’re a proper young lady of the Shen family, not an embroiderer in the embroidery shop. Why do you have to do this kind of needlework every day?”

Shen Dongling was stunned, as if she was surprised by Shen Yue’s sudden friendliness. Her face turned slightly red and she said, “Second Sister, you’re too kind. I usually don’t have anything else to do. My mother asked me to do needlework, so I did some. It’s fine.” Concubine Wan seemed to have lost her personality after being suppressed by Ren Wanyun for so long. Even now, with Ren Wanyun gone, her favorite thing to do was embroider in her room.

Seeing that Shen Dongling was so obedient, the smile in Shen Yue’s eyes deepened. “It’s time for you to change your personality. It’s good that you like to do embroidery, but what kind of rich young lady does embroidery all day long? I’m going to the jewelry shop to pick some jewelry tomorrow. Come with me. There are some new styles this year. Perhaps there’s something you like. If you like something, I’ll buy it for you.”
