Chapter 127 She is really nothing
As far as Cen Dahai can remember, Old Lady Cen has never liked him since he was born.
Old Mrs. Cen gave birth to three sons, but she treated him differently.
The eldest and the third child wanted to play with him, but Grandma Cen wouldn't allow it.
The eldest and the third child wanted to share their food and toys with him, but Grandma Cen refused and even scolded him for stealing his older and younger brothers' things.
Children are the best at reading people's expressions.
Over time, the eldest and third child, who don't understand anything and can't distinguish right from wrong, are easily led astray. Their subconscious mindset since childhood is that they can bully the second child, exclude the second child, and ignore the second child.
"At that time, your eldest uncle and third uncle had grown up and had formed their own personalities, but your aunt didn't understand that. She was innocent and kind, and would secretly bring me food when I was punished to kneel. Among my brothers and sisters, she was the only one who would talk to me and asked me to take her out to play. But over time, her character was inevitably corrupted." Cen Dahai recalled the past and finally sighed.
Because Cen Ying had been very close to him since childhood, he doted on her infinitely.
Over the years, he just let her suck his blood and never said a word of "no".
If it weren't for his wife and daughter, perhaps he would continue like this. No matter what request she made, he would try his best to meet it.
"Then Dad, what exactly was the ugly thing that my eldest aunt said my youngest aunt did?" Cen Yan listened to Cen Dahai's description and got to know the image of another little girl who was completely different from the current Cen Ying and was very lovable.
She was somewhat suspicious that Cen Ying's personality became more and more annoying and mean because of that incident.
After all, Cen Ying is only eighteen years old this year.
"That thing..." Cen Dahai found it difficult to speak when he heard his daughter's question.
"Let me tell you the story. When this incident happened, I happened to marry into the Cen family. I can be said to have witnessed this tragedy with my own eyes." Seeing that he was in trouble, Li spoke up.
"Tragic thing?" Cen Yan's heart tightened at the mention of these two words.
"Yes, and this matter will turn into a tragedy. Your eldest aunt can be said to be very generous! So when I heard that your eldest aunt dared to use this matter to threaten your younger aunt in the yard just now, I felt that she was really a piece of shit!" Li couldn't help but curse.
Cen Yan was amused by her indignant look and smiled.
After all, it is hard to bear to hear someone who always speaks in a soft voice suddenly start swearing.
"Mom, tell me what happened first. Let's put the matter of scolding my aunt for last. I will scold her with you." Cen Yan said with a smile.
"Uh, I, I didn't mean to scold her..." Li then realized that she had just said something swearing. She felt a little embarrassed, and seemed to be afraid that Cen Dahai would be unhappy, so she immediately glanced at him.
Fortunately, Cen Dahai looked normal and did not show any dissatisfaction.
But think about it, if he still stands up for Cen Fang in this situation, he is either stupid or foolish.
Li thought about it, cleared her throat, and began to say: "This is what happened. When your aunt was eight years old, a foreign family moved into our village. There were three people in that family, an old man and an old woman, with a boy about ten years old. The old man and the old woman said that the boy was their young master. He had been in poor health since childhood. The fortune teller said that only by taking refuge here can he safely pass the age of eighteen. As long as he passes this level, he will be able to survive.
"It sounds like he is the son of a wealthy family in the city. I'm afraid he was disliked by his family and was sent here to fend for himself. Otherwise, why would he only bring two old servants with him?
"It just so happens that this family lives right next door to ours."
As Li spoke, she pointed to the partition wall next to their second room. On the other side was an abandoned courtyard that had not been inhabited to this day.
Cen Yan had no memory of what he said to her.
After all, she could only remember things when she was about seven or eight years old, and she was bullied by Old Lady Cen all day long. She was either working or preparing to work all day long, and she had no time to pay attention to who lived across the wall.
In the past, she was always thinking about whether the yard was cleaned, whether the pigsty, chicken coop, and cowshed were cleaned, whether the pigs, ducks, chickens, and cows were fed, whether the clothes were washed, and whether the grass for the livestock was cut...
However, she still had some impression of the two servants and one master who lived next door.
"I remember that little brother who lived next door. My aunt and third sister-in-law often laughed at him in private, saying that it didn't matter if he was born in a wealthy family, wasn't he still blind? So, that little brother was really blind?" Cen Yan asked.
"He's not completely blind. He just can't see people and things clearly. He can only see a vague outline. His old servant said that he was poisoned after he was born. The imperial physician was hired, and his life was saved, but he has many diseases and his eyes are disabled. There is no hope for him to inherit the family business." Li sighed, with some sympathy in her tone.
"So what happened between him and my aunt?" Cen Yan asked.
"Three years ago, your aunt became pregnant with his child, but the child was aborted and the little boy died." Li looked at her and said.
"What?!" Cen Yan was completely shocked.
Such a big thing, and she didn't even know anything about it!
"Why didn't I hear you mention it at all at home?" Cen Yan couldn't suppress the shock on his face.
"Don't you understand your grandfather? In his mind, this incident is an extremely shameful thing. Not to mention you young people, no one in the village knows about it. Your grandfather never allows anyone to mention it. What happened that day was done quietly. Your aunt couldn't even protect herself, so how could she dare to make it public? Think about it carefully. It's after this incident that your aunt has completely become a different person." Li said.
"Then what is going on?" Cen Yan was really shocked.
Those are two lives!
Could it be that grandpa did all this?
Is it related to my aunt?
But if it really involved human life, why were my grandfather and aunt not hurt at all?
"It's a long story. The young master's surname is Cui, and I forgot his name. Anyway, it seems that everyone here calls him Young Master Cui. Some people who are kind call him Blind Little Cui. He has a good temper and a very gentle personality. Even if people in the village call him like that in front of him, he will never get angry. Our two families live close to each other, and he is handsome and gentle. Your younger aunt sympathizes with his eye disability and often talks to him. At first, she was still young, and no one in the family paid much attention to it, but later, your older aunt found that the two seemed to be a little too close..."
Li recounted this past event in detail.
Cen Dahai was listening on the side, and felt some pain in his heart when he recalled the past.
