“But from now on, our status at home will probably be even lower, and Grandma and Grandpa will like us even less…” Sanni still looked worried.

“So what you’re saying is that we were liked before?” Yang Ruxin snorted with laughter and gestured toward Xun Hui with her mouth, “Is being barely tolerated considered being liked?”

Sanni hung her head in silence.

“I’ll tell you, we have to repay those who are kind to us many times over, once we have the capability, like Uncle Li, who treated our illness without asking for anything in return when we were at our lowest.” Yang Ruxin took a deep breath, “But for those people…” she nodded toward the direction of the main house, “try to avoid arguing when you can get physical.

The rash are afraid of the reckless, and the reckless are afraid of those who have nothing to lose.”

“You…” Erni swallowed, “Are you really our big sister?”

Yang Ruxin couldn’t help but roll her eyes: “If I weren’t your big sister, would I bother fighting those scum to the death for you?”

“But you used to…”

“Don’t talk to me about the past.” Yang Ruxin waved a hand dismissively, “In the past, I thought life had prospects, thought Guan Qingshu would be my husband, huh, he’s educated, perhaps I could have been the wife of a Scholar, the madam of an Imperial Examination candidate.

I could endure and get through it.” She sighed, “But he didn’t cherish me.

Not only did my warm face meet his cold ass, but I also nearly lost my life…”

Erni bit her lower lip; indeed, it was true.

“How many hours did I pass out today?” Yang Ruxin scanned her siblings, “Let me tell you, I even saw the Black and White Impermanence…” She mimed with her hands, “holding such thick iron chains to shackle me…”

“Ah?

Big sister, you mustn’t die…” Sini suddenly hugged Yang Ruxin’s arm and cried.

“Don’t cry, of course, big sister can’t die.” Yang Ruxin simply sat Sini on her lap, “I turned and ran; they chased after me.

Just as they were about to catch up, a glint of silver needles flashed, and I came back…”

“It was Uncle Li who gave you the acupuncture…” Sanni said, her eyes wide with amazement.

“Yeah, when I woke up, I had it all figured out, to hell with Guan Qingshu.

You don’t cherish me, I don’t cherish you either…” Yang Ruxin said with a domineering wave of her hand.

“Big sister, are you really going to stop cherishing Guan Qingshu from now on?” Sanni frowned, somewhat disbelieving.

“Of course.” Yang Ruxin touched her face, “People can’t always be confused, right?

Especially since I’ve been around the Ghost Gate, when I came back, I saw you guys getting beaten…” She became somewhat choked up, “I was starving to death, and he didn’t even think of sending me a cake, why should I still fancy him?

Isn’t that right?”

“Big sister, don’t be sad…” Yang Rufeng spoke in a milky voice, looking at Yang Ruxin with adoration in his eyes, “I’ll protect you when I grow up…”

“Yeah, we won’t be sad anymore from now on.” Yang Ruxin patted her little brother’s head, “Big sister will protect you for now, and when you grow up, you protect big sister…”

In short, Yang Ruxin successfully brainwashed the younger ones with her eloquence.

She didn’t know whether this counted as misleading children, but anyway, she was no longer going to accept things lying down.

“Alright, we’ll talk about anything else later, let’s eat now.” Yang Ruxin called everyone together, “Tonight we have good food…”
