C14 Blindness

"I heard that the old mistress loves to drink, so I made it for her. Old mistress, try it." When Lin Ruo Yin saw that the old mistress liked it, she was also very happy and quickly filled a bowl for the old mistress.

"Good child, your craftsmanship is really not bad." The old mistress tried it and was a little surprised. This soup was actually better than the old cook's cooking in the mansion. After the old mistress drank a few mouthfuls, she held Lin Ruo Yin's hand, and her eyes were filled with gratification.

Suddenly, the old mistress changed the topic, "How did you make this dress? Our master's mansion is also a big family. How can you wear such dirty clothes?" There was a trace of displeasure in her tone. Obviously, she saw the stain on Lin Ruo Yin's body.

"You're Ruo Yin's maid? How can you be so insensible? How can you let the master wear such dirty clothes?" The old mistress turned her head to look at Hong Mei. Her aura was oppressive, scaring Hong Mei to the point that she directly knelt down.

"Hong Mei knows … I know my mistake, but the dress was deliberately knocked over by the Second Miss. The young miss was in a hurry to make the soup, so she didn't change it … Old mistress, please forgive me." Hong Mei was frightened by this and did not hide anything. When the old mistress heard this, her angry face slightly relaxed, but then she frowned.

"Is it the porridge that Ruo Yun deliberately knocked over?" The old mistress frowned and asked as if she was confirming something.

"I don't know if Second Miss did it on purpose, but after Second Miss knocked over the porridge, not only did she not allow Miss to change her clothes, but she also refused to let Miss go." Seeing the old lady's tone, Hong Mei did not dare to directly say that it was Lin Ruo Yun.

However, when she thought of what she had done to Lin Ruo Yin, she indignantly said Lin Ruo Yun's actions word by word. Hong Mei knew that the new Miss did not treat them as servants and treated them with sincerity. Not to mention that she was their master, they were more willing to stand on Lin Ruo Yin's side compared to the arrogant and despotic Second Miss.

"Actually, Second Sister only pulled me along because she wanted to apologize to me." Lin Ruo Yin lowered her head and said softly, but she did not deny the fact that Lin Ruo Yun had spilled the porridge on her. It was true that Lin Ruo Xi was pretending to be weak, which was what the old lady hated the most.

"Lan Xiu, go and help me call Ruo Yin and her mother over." The old lady saw Lin Ruo Yin's attitude and knew that this matter was most likely true. Lin Ruo Yin was a well-behaved child, so she could not allow her to be bullied. Naturally, she had to seek justice for her.

"Yes, this servant will... Ah, Old Madam, Third Wife and Ruo Yun are here." The old lady's maidservant was about to leave when she saw Third Wife and Lin Ruo Yun enter the room.

Lin Ruo Yun was originally happy because she had successfully made Lin Ruo Yin. However, when she saw that Lin Ruo Yin was also wearing the same clothes that she had splashed on her previously, her expression immediately changed.

Turning her head, she saw that the old mistress was also looking at her. Moreover, the look in her eyes was obviously filled with anger. Her heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Could it be that the old mistress already knew?

The Third Wife originally thought that Lin Ruo Yun had just been released from her confinement today. After all, the old mistress had personally punished her. It would be better for her to apologize to the old mistress after she came out. However, she didn't expect that Lin Ruo Yin herself would not go and cause trouble, and her precious daughter still insisted on going up to make her clean up.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the Third Wife hurriedly pulled Lin Ruo Yun, but she saw that Lin Ruo Yun was actually hiding behind her and did not dare to come out. She knew that Lin Ruo Yun must have done something wrong, so she asked tentatively, "Mother, what happened?"

"You still dare to ask? Your precious daughter is so arrogant and domineering that she causes trouble everywhere. Do you really think that the Second Branch is in charge of this family? Do you really think that you can bully Ruo Yin without a mother? As long as I, this old man, am here, Ruo Yin, this little girl, will protect her for a day!"

The old mistress glared at the Third Wife and said angrily, This was clearly an attitude of wanting to protect Lin Ruo Yin.

Lin Ruo Yin was also a little surprised. The old mistress saying this was undoubtedly giving Lin Ruo Yin a protective card. With the old mistress's dull personality, how could Lin Ruo Yin not be moved? This was the first time Lin Ruo Yin's cold heart had felt warm.
