The whole family died tragically? The eldest daughter is the most powerful in the capital after her

Seeing that she had said everything she needed to say, Madam Song left the rest for the Lin family to figure out on their own, then she stood up and said goodbye.

Old Madam Lin sent the person away in a gentle manner.

After thinking it over again and again, she gritted her teeth and said to Aunt Zhao in a trembling voice, "Go call the eldest brother and tell him that I have something urgent to discuss with him."

Not long after, Lin Shiyuan hurried to the old lady's yard. Seeing his mother's serious face, he knew that something was wrong.

After he stepped forward to pay his respects, the old lady immediately scolded him rudely: "Your daughter has now caused a big disaster, offended the Song family, and caused a lot of trouble in the city. This is no small matter! The Song family is now climbing up to the Princess Ren, do you know? If this continues, the Lin family will suffer a great loss sooner or later!"

Lin Shiyuan did not show much panic after hearing this.

On the contrary, he advised in a gentle tone: "Mother, you don't have to worry too much about the things between the children. Whether the Song family has married Renwang or not, our Lin family is not easily bullied."

"Mom, you are not in good health, so you should take better care of yourself."

The old lady was relentless and said sternly, "But the Song family has come to our door! Princess Ren has also intervened. Do you think our Lin family can ignore it? If Ruoxuan continues like this, the Lin family will not have a good ending! You can't let her stop making trouble!"

Lin Shiyuan was not in a hurry, but was thinking quietly in his mind.

The Song family was clearly at fault this time, so even if the incident gets out of hand, it’s not necessarily the Lin family that will suffer.

What's more, he vaguely knew that Lin Ruoxuan had Gu Nanyuan's support behind her.

He said in a deep voice: "Mother, don't worry, I know what to do. As for King Ren, things in the court are unpredictable, so don't worry too much for now."

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin didn't know what to say. She just sighed and let him leave.

After Lin Shiyuan left the old lady's yard, he prepared to go see Lin Ruoqiao.

As a result, he was stopped by Lin Ruoxi halfway.

She knelt on the ground, her face full of tears, and begged bitterly: "Father, you must take care of my sister! Now the outside world is in turmoil. The Wu family and the Song family have been offended. Even when I went out to buy things, I was rejected by the Song family store. If this continues, the Lin family may become the enemy of the dignitaries in the capital!"

Lin Shiyuan frowned slightly. He didn't expect the situation to be so serious.

"Father, I shouldn't be the one to say these things, but my sister is like this now... it's really too much!"

Her tone became increasingly agitated.

As Lin Shiyuan listened, his face gradually darkened. Although he did not completely believe what Lin Ruoxi said, things were obviously not that simple.

"Is the Song family the victim? Does your sister bully others for no reason?" Lin Shiyuan asked coldly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Lin Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, her heart was in a panic, and she quickly shook her head to explain: "No... Song Yuqing did do something wrong, but sister, isn't it too much? After all, the Song family has a huge influence in the capital, how good can our Lin family still live?"

Lin Ruoxi's tone became more and more intense.

She spoke very emotionally, as if she was deeply worried about the family, but in fact she was trying to sow Lin Shiyuan's dissatisfaction with Lin Ruoxuan.

Lin Shiyuan listened impatiently, his brows furrowed, and a hint of disappointment appeared in his eyes.

He interrupted Lin Ruoxi and scolded her coldly: "Xi'er, the family affairs have not been resolved yet, but you are out to stir up trouble. No matter what your sister did is right or wrong, our Lin family is a whole. In front of outsiders, as a member of the Lin family, shouldn't you stand on the side of your family? Your sister stood up for Ruoqiao, and you spread words that are not good for the Lin family behind her back. How can this be disgraceful!"

Lin Ruoxi's face turned red and white after being scolded. She bit her lip and whispered, "I'm just worried about the Lin family. If my sister does this, will it bring trouble to the entire family..."

Lin Shiyuan sighed heavily, waved his hand and said, "I know what you're thinking. We in the Lin family can't give in and tolerate everything. We can make a fuss at home, but we have to work together to protect our family outside. I can understand that you are resentful about what happened today, but there can't be a next time."

Lin Ruoxi agreed obediently on the surface, but her heart was filled with resentment and indignation.

She felt that her father had always been biased towards Lin Ruoxuan, which made her feel extremely wronged.

She gritted her teeth, a gleam of unwillingness flashing in her eyes.

Lin Shiyuan glanced at her, and the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipated.

He waved his hand and told her to go back quickly.

Lin Ruoxi bowed her head, turned away reluctantly, but the seeds of dissatisfaction were planted in her heart.

Lin Shiyuan walked into Lin Ruoqiao's yard and saw that although she was still a little weak, her spirit had improved a lot. He finally felt relieved.

He walked to the bed with a smile on his face and said in a gentle voice: "Ruoqiao, you should take good care of yourself and don't be too anxious."

Lin Ruoqiao smiled at her father and said softly, "Thank you for your concern, Dad. I feel much better now. Fortunately, my elder sister and younger sister have been taking care of me."

Lin Shiyuan nodded and turned to Lin Ruoxuan and Lin Ruoxue.

With a complicated look in his eyes, he took a deep breath and slowly repeated what the old lady had said: "Your grandmother and Ruoxi mentioned it just now. The situation outside is getting more and more tense. The Song family and the Wu family have been completely offended by you. It is better to end this matter here and reconcile."

Hearing this, Lin Ruoxuan's expression turned cold in an instant. A trace of grievance and anger flashed in her eyes. Tears almost instantly filled her eyes, and her voice couldn't help but choke.

"Reconcile? Father, do you know that those rumors outside are simply unbearable to hear! They all say that Seventh Sister is fickle and that I am arrogant and domineering. Seventh Sister was stabbed by Song Yuqing and her life was hanging by a thread, but outsiders are saying that our Lin family has been involved in scandals, and the Song family has become the victim. How can we reconcile with such a shame?"

Lin Ruoxue also stepped forward: "Father, how can we compromise on this matter? Do we sisters have to swallow our anger and allow others to humiliate us for the sake of the so-called 'harmony' of the family? If so, the Lin family will really become the laughing stock of the entire capital."

Lin Shiyuan was speechless for a moment because of his daughters' intense reaction. He knew that what his daughters said was true.

The rumors outside became more and more serious, and the Lin family indeed became the subject of conversation among the dignitaries in the capital.

However, if the trouble continues, the Song family will be protected by Princess Ren, which may not be good for the Lin family.

Lin Shiyuan was conflicted, but seeing his daughters' indignant looks, he could not force them to compromise.

"Forget it, forget it." Lin Shiyuan waved his hand helplessly and sighed, "Since you sisters are so determined, I won't say anything more. Xuan'er, you have always been thoughtful, but I hope you won't act rashly and consider the consequences of everything."
