He felt sick saying that, and felt like killing himself. He decided to not tell his wife, because he was sure that she would not touch the meat at all if he did. Unlike him, she could not bear eating the meat even if it meant a brutal death with gradual starvation
For a few days, his family ate well. But he himself couldn't bring himself to touch the food.
John tried to open his mouth to say something, anything to persuade or at least console the older farmer, but no words came out of his mouth.
He finally sighed and said, "Okay. We will leave farming."
The brothers and all the other farmers looked at their leader with shock. They did not expect him to leave the matter so easily.

John was interrupted from his reminiscence of memories by Harry's words.
Harry said with a small smile, "I may be a king, and I may be selfish, but that does not mean my words are false."
