Wei Ruo did not comply. “I won’t let this slap go. After I return it, then we can talk about whether there’s any grudge left.”

At this, Yun Shi sharply rebuked her, “You’re not seriously thinking of slapping your eldest brother, are you? He is your eldest brother—there is an order between elder and younger! If he hits you, it is only proper. If you hit him, that is a grave offense against moral order! If you dare strike that slap today, not only will the Wei family not tolerate you, the entire Taizhou Prefecture will reject you!”

Even if he had been wrong, an elder brother striking his younger sister was still acceptable—but a younger sister must never raise her hand against her elder brother!

Wei Yilin also grabbed Wei Ruo’s hand. “Eldest Sister, you can’t hit Eldest Brother! Calm down—he didn’t mean it!”

Wei Qingwan slightly raised her head to look at Wei Ruo. She didn’t speak, but she knew that if Wei Ruo dared to deliver that slap, she would be casting herself into the abyss of being unfilial and unrighteous.

All the good reputation she had built up outside would likely be destroyed.

Wei Ruo raised her hand. As she listened to Yun Shi’s warning, she suddenly turned—and delivered a fierce slap across Wei Qingwan’s face.

Wei Qingwan hadn’t even reacted before she was nearly knocked off her feet.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

By the time they came back to their senses, Wei Qingwan’s left cheek was already throbbing with pain. She stood there in a daze, the sting on her face the only thing reminding her of what had just happened.

Wei Yilin looked helplessly between Wei Ruo and Wei Qingwan, not knowing what to do.

“Ruo’er, what are you doing?” Wei Yichen stepped forward, shielding Wei Qingwan behind him, glaring angrily at Wei Ruo.

“Today’s situation arose because Sister Qingwan failed to speak clearly. She could have explained the truth in a few simple sentences, yet she deliberately gave vague answers, leading to misunderstanding and causing Eldest Brother to form a wrong impression of me. She has been educated for years—why can’t she state something so simple clearly? Why didn’t she clarify when she saw Eldest Brother was already angry? As the elder sister, I have the right to hold her accountable,” Wei Ruo replied.

She indeed could not strike Wei Yichen, since he was the eldest brother—but she could strike Wei Qingwan.

“Wanwan simply didn’t explain clearly. She didn’t deliberately wrong you. Even if you wanted to hold her accountable, you shouldn’t have resorted to hitting her!” Wei Yichen said angrily.

“Oh? So hitting someone right away is wrong?” Wei Ruo shot back. “I learned it from you, Eldest Brother! Isn’t that exactly how you ‘held me accountable’?”

Wei Yichen was rendered speechless, unable to produce a single word in rebuttal.

Seeing Wei Ruo’s defiant attitude, Yun Shi grew angry. “What kind of attitude is this? Are you resenting your eldest brother for disciplining you?”

“Mother, please don’t be upset. I merely learned from Eldest Brother’s way of disciplining me and applied it to Sister Qingwan. I only hope that next time, when Sister Qingwan answers others in the household, she can be clear and straightforward to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and discord within the family.”

Wei Ruo replied calmly, her expression composed, her tone steady.

Then she turned to Wei Qingwan again and said unhurriedly, “I don’t resent Eldest Brother. I trust that Sister Qingwan won’t resent my ‘guidance’ either, right?”

Wei Qingwan’s body trembled. The color drained from her face, while the spot struck by Wei Ruo’s hand burned red. Clutching the hem of her skirt, she suppressed her anger and grievance toward Wei Ruo.
