Chapter 43 Throw Her into the Yard
As soon as Old Man Cen said this, everyone in the Cen family had different expressions.
The first and third wives obviously knew what had happened. Their eyes were shining and they looked at Cen Yan expectantly, as if they were waiting for her to get into trouble, admit her mistake, kneel down and starve.
Old Mrs. Cen couldn't help but gloat over the corners of her mouth, as if her granddaughter's misfortune was her happiness.
Li knew nothing about this and was immediately worried. She couldn't eat and looked at Cen Yan with concern.
Cen Yang pursed his lips tightly, frowned, and looked at Old Man Cen with a hint of hostility in his eyes. In his mind, it was impossible for his sister to do anything wrong. Instead, it was Old Man Cen, as a grandfather, who was looking for trouble!
As for Cen Yan... admit his mistake?
Her heart sank, but her face immediately put on an innocent look of panic and ignorance.
She said in a sad tone, "But grandpa, I don't know what your granddaughter has done wrong that you have to admit your fault on an empty stomach? My dad is still lying unconscious in bed, and my mom has to take care of my younger brother and dad. I was so scared that I couldn't sleep in the cave last night. Today I was busy looking for a doctor to treat my dad's injury, cooking and washing dishes for the family, and my body is already exhausted. If I go hungry and collapse... then our second branch will be in big trouble!"
She just opened her mouth to show her sympathy, and Old Man Cen's thick white eyebrows couldn't help but frown.
It sounds as if he deliberately abused their second wife!
"Since you said you don't know where you went wrong, then boss, tell me how she, as the granddaughter of the Cen family, embarrassed herself in public and ruined the reputation of our Cen family!" Old Man Cen looked at Cen Yan coldly and spoke to Cen Dajiang.
"Yes, Dad." Cen Dajiang had no choice but to put down his chopsticks. He frowned and looked at Cen Yan seriously, and said in a deep voice, "You said you slept in the cave last night, but you were lying! You came back with a strange man this morning, and everyone in the village saw you!"
"That man is the one who saved me at the trap this morning. The mountain road was muddy after the rain, and he was kind enough to take me down the mountain. He happened to be seen by people in the village, but that doesn't mean I spent the night with him!" Cen Yan immediately retorted when he heard this.
"If only it were that simple." Cen Dahe shook his head, "But they told a complete story. They said you came down from the mountain together. The two villagers even asked the strange man if he lived with you last night, and he didn't deny it!"
"Did you hear that, Cen Yan? If that man really saved you, how could he not deny it? A person who saved you must have good intentions, but he did not deny it when faced with such an inquiry. This is a deliberate attempt to discredit your reputation! Cen Yan, you are so dirty! With people like you, how can the girls of the old Cen family hold their heads up and live in the outside world in the future?!" Cen Shuang's eyes emitted a resentful and excited light, adding fuel to the fire.
After she said this, everyone from Old Lady Cen to Cen Ying, from Mrs. Gao to Mrs. Yu, all of them stared at her with eyes that wished they could eat Cen Yan alive, thinking that their daughters had not yet found a marriage and now would be implicated by Cen Yan.
"Cen Yan, let me say this today. If it is really because of you that Sister Lin is delayed and she is unable to find a good marriage in the future, then I will never forgive you!" Gao said angrily.
"Our Sister Shuang is so pitiful! How could she have such an shameless cousin? Sister Shuang is about to reach the age of getting married, but she has to be implicated by this bitch!" Yu also howled, glaring at Cen Yan viciously, as if she wanted to pick up a stool and smash Cen Yan to death.
"Shut up! Cen Yan, if you dare to make it so that your younger aunt can't get married, I'll give you a good beating!" Old Mrs. Cen also became anxious. Cen Yingke was already eighteen years old, and still hadn't found a marriage. She was already worried about this. If, by chance, she could never get married for the rest of her life because of this incident, then she would have to kill Cen Ying to vent her anger!
"This, this must be a misunderstanding..." Li wanted to defend Cen Yan.
"It's all because of you, this jinx. Ever since you came into our Cen family, there has been no happy event in our family!" But she couldn't come up with any strong evidence to refute it, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she was scolded harshly by Old Mrs. Cen.
At this moment, Cen Yan was immersed in a state of unbelievable surprise.
Ji Yunzhan didn't even deny those malicious speculations and inquiries?
This is impossible!
Cen Yan immediately thought that what she was worried about had happened, but it was not quite the same as she had imagined.
She thought Ji Yunzhan must be on her side, but that didn't seem to be the case.
If the two people she met this morning really asked Ji Yunzhan this question after she left, how could he not deny it?
Obviously, they were friends last night and got along so well...
No, she didn't believe that Ji Yunzhan would cheat her like this!
"Cen Yan, you are not young anymore, it is time for you to get married. Originally, your family, Wei Zan, did not mind that your second branch could not afford the dowry. Later, you were disfigured, but he still did not mind you and still said he wanted to marry you. But tell me, what have you done? Now, because of your improper behavior, the whole village is laughing at our old Cen family!"
Cen Dajiang rebuked him in a sad tone, "You are really immoral! You have brought shame to the Cen family! Tell me, shouldn't your grandfather punish you?!"
"Those two people must have misunderstood something." Cen Yan knew that he must not admit it at this time.
She didn't understand why Ji Yunzhan didn't deny it. He should know that this would hurt her, but at least she had to calm herself down first.
"Shut up!" However, in the eyes of Old Man Cen, she was just quibbling. "It's spread all over the village, and you're still refusing to admit it, right? Boss, take this girl to the yard! Make her kneel in the yard tonight! No one is allowed to let her get up until I give in!"
"Dad, Yan'er, Yan'er is weak. How can she bear kneeling in the yard all night like this? And she needs her help to take care of Brother Dahai. Otherwise, I am alone with the child and I really can't take care of him!" When Li heard this, she quickly stood up and begged.
"Why can't you take care of it? Let Cen Yang go to bed early at night, so that you can focus on taking care of the second child!"
Old Mrs. Cen's harsh words came out immediately.
She looked at Cen Yan with disgust, as if she was looking at something dirty, and shouted, "Boss, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and throw this bitch into the yard!"
