With your current code, the Site Controller search the view file under his view's folder /views/site, you need to get the right path:

$this->render('../default/site/index');

I suggest to create an alias for be more flexible, like @default_views in your main-local file:

'aliases' => [
        '@default_views' => '../default/',

So, the function:

public function actionIndex(){
    return $this->render(Yii::getAlias('@default_views') . 'site/index');
}
