Chapter 200 Even a tiger won’t eat its own cubs

"Dad, how can you say that?" Upon hearing this, Cen Dahai was shocked and closed his eyes in despair.

"Grandpa! You are so cruel and heartless!"

Cen Yan's black eyes widened in disbelief.

She clenched her fists and questioned with all her strength, "My mother is pregnant with your grandchild! She wants to have more children for the Cen family, but you want to kill a poor and innocent life just because of a few baseless words!

"Grandpa, a gentleman should not talk about strange things! You are a scholar, a well-known old scholar, do you also believe in these ghosts and gods?

"How can you be worthy of Confucius' teachings if you do this?

"How can you justify the decades of reading these sage books?"

She spoke each word in a sonorous and powerful voice.

When Old Man Cen heard this, a ball of rage rose up in his heart, which instantly made him feel suffocated!

"Shut up! What do you know?!"

He said to Cen Yan angrily, "This is a matter concerning the well-being of our entire family, and it cannot be explained away by a simple word of supernatural power!

"Besides, what do you mean by... that scholars shouldn't believe in ghosts and gods? You can't read a single word, so what do you know?

“All those high-ranking officials believe this!

"The higher the position, the more he believes in this!

"What do you know?!"

He kept emphasizing that Cen Yan was ignorant and knew nothing.

He still treats Cen Yan as the country girl who had never learned a single word!

"Grandpa, I really don't understand the affairs of the officialdom, but I do understand one truth - even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. You want to kill your own grandson and granddaughter. This is the wrong thing to do!" Cen Yan immediately retorted coldly.

"Shut up!" When Old Man Cen heard her use such a serious word as "kill", he was so angry that he slammed the hookah in his hand heavily on the table.

The "bang" sound scared everyone in the room so much that they shuddered.

Old Man Cen usually doesn't show off his power.

But once he gets angry, he can be very scary.

Gao, Yu, Cen Dajiang and Cen Dahe all couldn't help but shrink their necks.

Only Cen Yan and Cen Dahai were still standing there, motionless, and they didn't seem to be frightened by his power at all.

"Second brother, I'll say it again, either Li aborts the baby in your belly, or you two can separate! Don't tell me about the scholar and the non-scholar! And don't blame me for being cruel. I'm not cruel, but there's more than one of you in the family. There's also the eldest and the third brother. If you're not convinced, you might as well ask them what they think and see if they can still tolerate you if Li doesn't abort the baby."

Old Man Cen calmed down his anger, pretended to be calm, and reasoned with Cen Dahai, "After all, I am the head of the family. No matter what decision I make, I have to consider the whole family, not just your second room.

"You have to understand the difficulties I have as a father.

"Second brother, you have always been the most obedient and sensible person in the past, so you should know my dilemma. Don't let Cen Yan, an uneducated wild girl, cause trouble here.

"Okay, go back now and have a talk with Li, and try to persuade her. It's just a child. If you don't have it this time, you can get pregnant again next time.

"Anyway, it hasn't been born yet..."

Cen Yan was so furious after hearing his high-sounding remarks!

Especially his last few sentences...

What does "just a child" mean?

What does "I didn't get pregnant this time, but I can get pregnant again next time" mean?

What does "it hasn't been born yet anyway" mean? !

Could it be that because of these reasons, the baby in my aunt's belly was cruelly poisoned and aborted by him? !

Cen Yan could empathize with Li because of the child in her belly.

At this moment, I put myself in Cen Ying's shoes and thought about how she was isolated and helpless, her beloved was killed, and the child in her belly was cruelly aborted by her own father... It was such a desperate situation... I suddenly felt very sad.

She couldn't help but look at Cen Ying, and saw that her eyes were already red, but she was still holding on, not showing it too much...

At this time, everyone's attention was on the confrontation between Old Man Cen and the father and daughter of the second branch, and no one noticed Cen Ying.

Therefore, she had a chance to not suppress her sadness, sorrow and anger...

If Cen Ying had a chance to vent all the emotions that he had been holding in his heart for decades, it would be like a torrent rushing down a mountain river...

It expresses the endless grief and indignation of the world!

Old man Cen just kept saying that he had difficulties and asked Cen Dahai to understand, be obedient and sensible.

At this moment, Cen Dahai suddenly laughed.

He laughed out loud.

At first he laughed with his head down, but soon he raised his head and laughed at Old Man Cen, and his laughter became louder and louder.

If it weren't for the sadness that gradually came into his laughter, and the sarcasm in his eyes...

Old Man Cen and the others thought he was crazy.

"Dad, I have been obedient and sensible since I was young. I always understood the difficulties of being the head of the family, but what did I get in the end? I did nothing wrong, but I was kicked out of the house. My wife has never had a good day since she married me. She has been working hard every day. Xiaoyan's mother had to work in the fields, wash clothes and cook when she was pregnant with her. Her health collapsed after she gave birth to her, and she soon died..."

This was the first time that Cen Dahai spoke out to accuse Old Man Cen and Old Lady Cen of treating him unfairly, and every word he said was full of blood and tears, "When I got to Li's, I just wanted to protect her.

"I was too cowardly and foolishly filial before, thinking about everything for my parents and brothers and sisters, but in the end, I made my wife and children cry...

"Now, do I have to kill my unborn child with my own hands just to be filial?

“Dad, I can’t do this!

"Even if the child in Li's belly is really a freak and will become a devil in the future, I must protect her and help her give birth to this child!

"Otherwise! I am not worthy of being Li's husband! I am not worthy of being the father of several children!

"Dad, I am a father too, I hope you can understand my difficulties!"

Cen Dahai puffed out his chest, speaking every word in a sonorous and powerful voice. His eyes, which had been afraid for more than 30 years, now looked at Old Man Cen fearlessly.

Hearing him say this, Old Man Cen seemed to be angry, and his chest began to rise and fall violently.

"Good, very good, it turns out that you have grown up and become more powerful! It turns out that I have been raising a bunch of ungrateful people for so many years!"

Old man Cen nodded repeatedly and said "OK" twice.

Then, he looked at his other two sons with a stern look and said meaningfully, "Eldest brother, Third brother, what do you two brothers think?"
