When Ren Yaohua heard this story, he snorted coldly and said, "A lovely wife and beautiful concubines, enjoying the best of both worlds? I think this man is an ungrateful hypocrite! You didn't make up this story, did you?" Ren Yaohua looked at Ren Yaoqi with obvious suspicion and contempt.
Ren Yaoqi coughed lightly and said, "Of course not." She had never seen such a messy play before, and she couldn't make it up even if she wanted to.
Ren Yaohua frowned and said, "After this drama, will people outside really forget the previous rumors?" Although she usually said it as if she didn't care, as a woman, who would really not care about her reputation at all?
Ren Yaoqi thought for a moment and said, "This is just a good start, but as time goes by, they will gradually understand. And you should also try to control your temper in the future. If you want to get angry, it's okay, but the reasons must be tenable and there must be solid evidence. Never act arbitrarily."
Ren Yaohua was inherently tough and decisive, and Ren Yaoqi didn't want to give her a false facade of gentleness and virtue. That would make her life very tiring, because any moment she lost control of her temper could cause others to doubt the gentle image she had worked so hard to establish, and become a weapon for others to attack her. Therefore, Ren Yaoqi wanted others to see an upright and dignified Ren Yaohua.
Not all families want a gentle and graceful daughter-in-law. Ren Yaohua's seriousness and dignity are actually more in line with the image of the mistress of a wealthy family.
It was impossible to completely eliminate those rumors, but they could be guided. They could make the originally unfavorable rumors favorable, so that people outside would gradually understand that Ren Yaohua was indeed a strict and rule-abiding person, and that those rumors were not completely groundless.
But Ren Yaohua would never get angry without a reason. She was not willful, but upright and law-abiding. She was strict with her sisters not because she was proud and difficult to get along with, but because she was the eldest sister and needed to maintain the dignity of the eldest sister.
However, these are not things that Ren Yaoqi can do alone, she also needs Ren Yaohua's cooperation.
In Ren Yaoqi's mind, it is not difficult for Ren Yaohua to do all this, because she has such a personality.
Ren Yaohua knew what Ren Yaoqi meant, and she gradually realized that her sister actually cared about her. However, she still turned her head away awkwardly and said with a pout, "When have I ever been angry without reason?"
Ren Yaoqi looked at her and smiled, not arguing. She would keep a close eye on her from now on and prevent her from acting rashly. In fact, after spending time together, she realized that Ren Yaohua wasn't a stubborn person. If she truly did something wrong, and you pointed it out to her, she would secretly correct it and try not to make the same mistake again, which was rare for someone as proud as her.
Ren Yaohua had many advantages, but Ren Yaoqi hadn't discovered them in her previous life. This was already a regret from her previous life, but she was glad that this regret wouldn't continue.
Meanwhile, Old Master Ren and Old Lady Ren were astonished to learn that the man who had supposedly died had suddenly returned to life. Old Master Ren even sent someone to contact Mei Hong, hoping to learn what she was up to and whether she was seeking revenge. However, Mei Hong seemed to have no recollection of the Ren family at all. She insisted that her maiden name was Chen, her given name was Fu Jie'er, and that she was from Jiangnan. Such certainty left the Ren family's agents perplexed, unable to determine their veracity.
