Actually, Su Ling had said these words herself...
At the very moment she found out Little Ear was sick, she thought instead of bringing a child into this world to suffer, it might have been better not to have given birth to him at all.
But, from the pregnancy to Little Ear now growing up, in these three plus years, the feeling for her son, that love, had seeped into her very being.
It's an emotion that cannot be extracted, a determination firm like preferring her own nonexistence to his disappearance.
Therefore, she couldn't bear others speaking of the child this way, even if that person was her own brother: "What kind of uncle talks about his nephew like this?"
"Do you think I don't love him? It's because I love him so much that I feel it'd have been better if he hadn't been born."
It's not like he hadn't tried to stop this from happening. When he first found out his sister was pregnant out of wedlock, his initial reaction was to have the child aborted.
