The legitimate daughter returns to the capital and embarks on a splendid life, tearing apart the fak

"Oh dear, husband, what's wrong?" A woman rushed out of the house, with a line of text floating above her head: [Zhou Cuihua: Favorability: -56%]

Seeing Yun Laosi lying on the ground, barely alive, Zhou Cuihua was heartbroken. Holding the man, she shouted at Yun Jin, "You brat! Have you gone mad? This is your fourth uncle! How could you be so cruel?"

Yun Jin slammed the doorstop into the ground: "Who is he, Fourth Uncle? He's just a servant of our Yun family, yet he dares to act like he's the master? Who gave you the audacity to even stop me?"

Zuo Laosi weakly said to Zhou Cuihua, "Cuihua, go quickly and find the master, madam, and young master!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Cuihua forgot all about cursing and ran to the main room, screaming, "Master! Madam! Young Master! Something terrible has happened! That wretched girl Yun Jin is back! She even hit the fourth son!"

Yun Jin ignored her and strode into the courtyard.

Zuo Laosi, lying on the ground, tried to stop her but couldn't get up. He gasped in pain as he moved, and his eyes darkened as he looked at Yun Jin's back.

This girl seems like a completely different person; the ruthlessness in her eyes is nothing like the soft persimmon she used to be, who would let anyone beat or scold her.

Under the courtyard lights, the main door slammed open, and Yun Dahai and his wife, along with their son Yun Shuyan, came out of the house.

The Yun couple were dressed in silk clothes. Yun Li was adorned with pearls and jade, while Yun Shuyan wore a blue robe and scholar's cap, looking like a scholar. In reality, he was dull-witted and failed the imperial examination for several years.

All three had negative favorability ratings above their heads: Old Man Yun was -60%, Old Woman Yun was -75%, and Yun Shuyan was -42%.

Yun Jin couldn't help but facepalm; there really wasn't a single good person in this family.

Madam Yun immediately spotted Zuo Laosi, who was groaning on the ground. He was her distant cousin from her maternal family. Hitting him was like slapping herself in the face, and she was instantly enraged: "Yun Jin, you little bitch! You dare to cause trouble on your return visit right after getting married, and you even beat your fourth uncle like this. Don't you have any respect for your elders?!"

Yun Jin sneered, "Who is he? I knew he was just a servant in our household. How dare a servant block his master from entering? He deserves to be beaten to death!"

Yun Li's eyelids twitched. Why was that brat so defiant today? She questioned, "Something's not right. You're married, why aren't you staying at your husband's family? What are you doing back here? Did Chen Wencai divorce you? Divorced on your first day of marriage? You must have done something to betray the Chen family. Did they find out you're no longer pure? I told you, you little slut, you're not learning anything good. Have you been seeing other men outside?"

"You old hag, did you eat shit last night? Why does your mouth stink like that?" Yun Jin gripped the doorstop, her tone flat. "Don't you know what happened with this marriage? I didn't want to marry him, so you kidnapped me. Now I'm back, and I'm telling you, old hag, I don't accept this marriage!"

"What did you say? You actually came back on your own?" Yun Li's mouth dropped open in disbelief.

"Nonsense!" Yun Dahai slapped his thigh and shouted angrily, "A marriage arranged by your parents and a matchmaker—do you think you can just refuse to marry like that? We've raised you for fifteen years; are you not allowed to control your own life? Come back to the Chen family with me right now, I'll personally escort you there!"

"Apologize?" Yun Jin sneered, her gaze sweeping over the exquisite furnishings of the courtyard before finally settling on her drafty side room. "Do you even deserve to be parents? You treated me like a slave since I was little, feeding me leftovers and dressing me in tattered clothes. Even a servant like her has more dignity than me!"

She suddenly pointed at Zhou Cuihua, "Zhou Cuihua wears fine cloth clothes, while I wear coarse linen patched upon patched; she has meat at every meal, but I can't even get a full meal! Is this what you call supporting me for fifteen years?"

Yun Li's face flushed red, stung by the attack: "How dare you! We provide you with food and clothing, we're already being kind by not letting you starve to death on the streets, and you still dare to be picky? Zhou Cuihua works, so naturally she deserves to eat better!"

She winked at Zhou Cuihua, "Cuihua, hold this wretched child down! Send her back to the Chen family, and see how Chen Wencai deals with her!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Cuihua became eager to try and rushed towards Yun Jin: "This is what Madam said. You should just listen to Madam and go back to the Chen family. No matter what, Madam didn't ask you to be someone else's concubine, so don't make Madam angry!"

Yun Jin was so angry she laughed. So, not making her a concubine was considered a favor to her?

Seeing Zhou Cuihua rushing towards her, she raised the door-blocking stick in her hand and swung it horizontally at Zhou Cuihua, scaring Zhou Cuihua into retreating repeatedly, but she was still hit in the waist by the stick. Then Yun Jin hit her twice more with the stick, and Zhou Cuihua immediately fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

"You wretched thing!" Madam Yun was furious. She had controlled this brat for so many years, and now that she had suddenly lost control, she couldn't accept it. Pointing at Yun Jin, she shouted, "Put down what you're holding! Kneel down and apologize, and I'll forgive you!"

"Kneel down?" Yun Jin's eyes flashed with a fierce light. "From now on, I, Yun Jin, will kneel to the heavens and the earth, but I will never kneel to beasts!"

Yun Li, clutching her chest in anger, gasped, "You wretched child! You've truly gone too far!"

Seeing that his mother was angry, Yun Shuyan immediately put on the airs of an elder brother: "Yun Jin, you are so unfilial! You dare to disobey your parents, but you should obey your elder brother's orders, right? Quickly surrender, or I will have to take action!" After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and rushed towards Yun Jin.

Without thinking, Yun Jin struck him on the back of the knee with a stick.

Yun Shuyan cried out and fell to her knees, wincing in pain: "You dare hit me? You've gone too far!"

"So what if I hit you?" Yun Jin looked down at him, raising the stick and striking his leg again. "If you dare utter another sound, I won't hesitate to cripple you!"

Yun Shuyan was still trying to be stubborn. He had just uttered the word "bitch" when the stick struck his back again, making him howl in pain.

"Stop! Stop it now!" Seeing her son being beaten, Madam Yun rushed forward like a madwoman. "You dare hit my son? I'll fight you to the death!"

Yun Jin dodged to the side and struck her arm with a backhand stick.

Yun Li clutched her arm in pain, tears streaming down her face: "You jinx! Kneel down and apologize! Otherwise, I won't forgive you!"

"Apologize?" Yun Jin weighed the stick in her hand. "Have you forgotten how we got to have such good days?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Dahai's eyelids twitched, and a sudden panic gripped his heart—did this girl know something? He forced himself to remain calm: "We earned our lives ourselves! Stop talking nonsense! You even dared to hit your mother; if you don't stop, I'll break your legs!"

He turned and ran towards the woodshed, looking for a thick wooden stick.

Yun Jin wouldn't give him a chance. She caught up with him in a few steps and struck him on the back with a stick.

Yun Dahai staggered and fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

In just a short while, the courtyard was a complete mess.

Zuo Laosi, Zhou Cuihua, Yun Shuyan, Yun Dahai, and Yun Lishi were all either lying down or kneeling, and there was a chorus of wails on the ground.

The favorability ratings of the crowd plummeted to over -90%, which was exactly the effect Yun Jin wanted.

Yun Jin slammed the door-blocking stick into the ground and said coldly, "If anyone dares to utter another curse, this stick in my hand won't let them off!"
