Chapter 116: Showing Concern and Care
"get out."
Upon hearing this, Si Yu knew that Lin Lezheng couldn't help her today.
Thinking of the child in her belly, she felt a little regretful, thinking that she should not have provoked Lin Ruqin if she had known this would happen.
Lin Le knew that Si Yu was angry right now and didn't want to argue with this woman.
"Rusi, take good care of your mother here. If anything happens, just send someone over to tell me as soon as possible."
As soon as Lin Lezheng finished speaking, Lin Rusi felt that the expression on his face was hypocritical.
"Yes, daddy."
After he left, she looked at her mother with some heartache.
"Mother, does your stomach still hurt?"
Hearing this, Si Yu could only shake her head helplessly. As a mother, she naturally had high expectations for the child in her womb.
It's hard to accept that something like this has happened.
"Rusi, I regret it so much. If I had known this would happen, I should have listened to you and not provoked that girl. Now that I've lost my baby, what will become of us?"
She came from an ordinary family, so it was no easy feat for her to rise to the position of lady of the house.
Now that this has happened, I don't know how to turn things around.
"Mother, I know you didn't want this to happen either, but it's come to this, and we have no other choice. I have something to say, and I wonder if you would like to hear it?"
After Lin Ruqin finished speaking, she looked at Si Yu.
Upon hearing this, Si Yu nodded weakly.
"Just say what you want to say. There's no need for us, mother and daughter, to hide anything from each other." She felt that the only lucky person she could be in this world right now was Lin Rusi.
“Mother, now that Grandmother is favoring Eldest Sister, it’s almost impossible for us to make her pay for this. At this time, we can’t push her further away, otherwise it will be even more difficult for her to gain a foothold in this mansion in the future.”
After Lin Rusi finished speaking, she also looked at Si Yu.
She knew that her mother had always been a smart person, but she had been at odds with Lin Ruqin all these years, which was why she had done so many foolish things.
"what do you mean?"
"To gain a foothold in this household, we must win Father's favor. Although we have lost our child, we can use this opportunity to control our eldest sister."
Si Yu suddenly realized that she had been so immersed in her grief that she had forgotten such an important matter.
Since the child has already been lost, we might as well turn this opportunity to our advantage.
"You're getting smarter and smarter. I wouldn't have thought of this if you hadn't reminded me." Si Yu looked at her daughter and was very satisfied.
With such a clever mind, even if she gets married, she won't have to worry about being bullied by others.
"Mother, you should know what to do, right?"
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I want to see how that girl can make herself feel at peace with herself."
The next day, he dressed neatly and went directly to see Lin Lezheng.
"Madam, you just had a miscarriage. Don't stand in the limelight. Come in quickly." Seeing Si Yu, Lin Lezheng felt more guilty.
Although I also wanted to discipline my disobedient daughter, with the old lady interfering today, the matter could only be dropped.
Seeing Si Yu made him feel uneasy.
“Master, I was wrong about what happened yesterday. Although the young lady did such a thing, she is still just a child. I shouldn’t have treated her so harshly. I know that you have it tough too, so let’s just let this matter go.”
“Madam, I still feel sorry for you. The child in your belly is so pitiful. That girl must apologize to you.”
"No need. I don't think the young lady did it on purpose. I will talk to her privately to explain this matter. As an elder, I really shouldn't be so petty with these girls."
Si Yu's sudden change to being considerate pleased Lin Lezheng greatly.
"Madam is truly sensible."
However, the more this happened, the more guilty Lin Lezheng felt. Whenever he saw his wife, he would think of his child who had died young.
He naturally felt more dissatisfied with Lin Ruqin, even though she was once his most beloved daughter, she was nothing special.
After this incident, Si Yu became much more sensible and has been managing the household affairs very well ever since.
Lin Rusi also saw it.
"Although it was a pity that my younger brother died, my mother has grown through this incident and has become more and more like a lady these days."
The Si Yu of the past, although she tried her best to do everything well, always seemed a bit petty. But she has changed a lot in recent days.
“Miss is right. These days, Madam has been much kinder to us servants, and we have all seen it.”
As Wanqi spoke, Lin Rusi simply nodded.
"A fall into a pit, a gain in your wit; this may not be a bad thing for a mother."
Lin Ruqin sat in the courtyard. Whenever she closed her eyes, she seemed to see a baby covered in blood. When she came to her senses, she realized that Si Yu had entered the room.
She was a little scared. Was this woman here to interrogate her?
After thinking for a moment, he knelt down. As long as he acted pitiful enough, no one would blame him.
“Mother, I didn’t mean to do that. I was just afraid of being punished, so I pushed you. Please don’t take it to heart. I know I was wrong.”
After saying that, Lin Ruqin took out a handkerchief and began to wipe away her tears, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Upon hearing this, Si Yu quickly helped the person up.
“Young lady, I am fully aware of this matter. I am not here today to interrogate you.”
After saying this, he put all the snacks he had brought on the table.
Is there something toxic about this mindset?
Lin Ruqin secretly cursed.
"This was specially made for my eldest daughter. It's all your favorite food. I've already forgotten about that day. From now on, let's get along well as mother and daughter."
Si Yuci's kind and gentle appearance made Lin Ruqin extremely nervous.
She simply couldn't believe that this woman would suddenly change her personality.
"This……"
“Young lady, please eat these snacks while they’re hot. The weather will get cold in a few days. I’ll have someone come and make you some clothes in a couple of days. I’ll go back and rest today.”
Seeing the lady suddenly become like this, Lin Ruqin's maid looked like she had swallowed a fly.
"What is Madam trying to do now? This hypocritical act is truly terrifying."
"I don't know either. Let's wait and see. I want to see what this woman has up her sleeve."
