Honestly, I feel Winter's line just refers to the fact that she wasn't in Mistral like Weiss expected and, thus, was literally not there to save Weiss from the bandits. Thus, Weiss had to resolve to try to get herself out of the situation, instead of just sitting there going "Just wait until my sister hears about this!!"

That may be why she gained the Queen Lancer as a summon. It ultimately led to her getting captured by the bandits, who caused her to have to resolve to save herself instead of hoping someone else will come help her.
