Chapter 9: Change is necessary
After all, she had been a princess consort, managed the affairs of the prince's residence, and experienced the strict rules of the royal family.
Seeing the utter lack of discipline throughout the mansion, Lin Rusi grew increasingly angry and irritated.
She forcefully pushed Granny He aside and rushed inside, shouting, "Mother, shut up!"
Upon seeing that the visitor was her beloved daughter, Si Yu's already smug expression became even more relaxed: "Si Si is here? Did you get chilled by that bucket of cold water? Don't worry, I've already sent someone to fetch your father. When he returns, he will definitely uphold justice for you and severely punish that little wretch who splashed you with cold water!"
The more Si Yu talked, the more she gritted her teeth, wishing she could take this opportunity to devour Lin Ruqin alive!
At this moment, Lin Ruqin spoke with a cold laugh: "So that's why you suddenly ran to my place, it was all a ruse?"
Lin Rusi pursed her lips, ignoring Lin Ruqin.
If things continue like this in this manor, even if Lin Ruqin doesn't intervene, it will still bring about a great disaster!
In the household of high-ranking officials, the most taboo thing is to act recklessly and arbitrarily!
"Mother, the truth of this matter has not yet been determined. Even if you love me dearly, you should not insult your eldest daughter like this. If this gets out, Father, as the prime minister, will be punished for his lack of moral integrity!"
Upon hearing this, everyone—Si Yu, Lin Ruqin, and all the old women and maids in the room—was stunned.
This... could be something that Lin Rusi would say?
In the past, Lin Rusi wished she could trample Lin Ruqin under her feet, and even if there was nothing wrong, she would make up some stories.
Even beatings and scoldings are too lenient!
They would often spread rumors and frame others, and only when Lin Ruqin was reprimanded and taught a lesson by Lord Lin and Si Yu would they possibly stop!
The worst time was when he set fire to the ancestral hall and insisted on pinning the blame on Lin Ruqin, causing her to kneel in the snow for two days and two nights and remain bedridden for more than three months!
Not to mention the attention-seeking, stealing weddings, and one thing after another...
Their crimes are too numerous to list!
Lin Rusi sighed inwardly; she knew what she had done.
But this is a rebirth; can't we just ruin a good game again by our own actions?
She simply knelt on the ground and looked at Si Yu seriously: "Mother, I know you love your daughter, but let's stick to the facts. As the head of the household, you should be more dignified and cautious, and you can't act recklessly for a moment of pleasure!"
“You…” Si Yu stood up, swaying precariously.
Could it be that this precious daughter is truly possessed by evil spirits and has become possessed?
Lin Ruqin found it even stranger.
Why did Lin Rusi suddenly undergo such a big change?
Just when everyone suspected that it was going to rain blood, Prime Minister Lin had already returned from court and strode into the main house.
He had naturally heard everything Lin Rusi had said.
Seeing Lin Rusi kneeling on the ground with her face pale, still stubbornly standing there, and Lin Ruqin speaking with an arrogant expression, she was immediately filled with anger.
He stared at Lin Ruqin with disgust, and waved his hand dismissively: "You still dare to call yourself an older sister? You've got quite the nerve, causing trouble even in the mistress's courtyard?"
"Guards! Lock this wretched child in the ancestral hall and make him kneel for seven days as a warning to others!"
Lin Ruqin felt only fatigue.
Even if her parents' favoritism falls on her.
But they are both daughters, so how can there be such favoritism?
She finally understood.
No wonder she was so arrogant and lawless before, unable to distinguish right from wrong, and in the end, she even dragged her whole family down with her reckless behavior...
