Rebirth: Divine Doctor, Sweet Wife

Zhou Ping was stunned. “T-ten thousand yuan?”

Grandma Zhou bellowed, “What’s the matter? What is ten thousand yuan? Your brother and nephew are still in there. Don’t we need money to take care of them? If you can get them out, I won’t need to waste money like that.

“We still need to buy things to prepare for the new year and buy clothes for the little ones. Everything needs money. Ten thousand yuan might not even be enough. Get as much as you can.”

Zhou Ping gulped. “But… but Mother, I really can’t get hold of ten thousand yuan! They don’t give me money at all. I… where am I supposed to find so much money?”

“Borrow it.”

Zhou Ping was stunned. “Borrow?”

She had never thought of borrowing money. In her mind, it was very shameful to borrow money. She did not want to do that.

Grandma Zhou said, “That’s right. Go and borrow it. They’re not willing to give you money now, but we urgently need the money. Borrow it first, and you can return it in the future.

“Your older brother is still in prison! The situation in the prison cells is so dreadful. Your brother has already suffered so much! He almost died. And then there’s Yaozhu. He is the hope of our family! The oldest grandson of the Zhou family. He used to be so respected in this area!

“But now? He’s been locked up. Do you know how many people are laughing at our family? We can’t stay here much longer.”

Her family’s honor was Zhou Ping’s priority.

Grandma Zhou said, “Be a good girl and listen to me. Go and borrow some money to tide us over. Your status is so high, and you’re the most successful person in our family. We all depend on you! With your high status, the people you meet are all rich and respectable. I’m sure you can borrow a lot of money. Go and borrow some money, and give it to me to tide us over, all right?

“I’m begging you, really begging you. I can’t watch the Zhou family being destroyed! Wuwuwu. Please, daughter!”

Zhou Ping heard her mother say that she was the most successful person in the Zhou family and that the entire family depended on her. A sense of pride and responsibility welled up in her. She immediately felt that she was the Zhou family’s only hope of salvation.

She immediately puffed up her chest and promised, “Mother, don’t worry. I will certainly find a way to raise the money and send it to you. I’ll also get Older Brother and Yaozhu released.”

Grandma Zhou immediately smiled through her tears. “I knew it, my darling daughter is so capable. Dear daughter, I can tell you that a noble family like your Gu family places great importance on their dignity. If you borrow money and they find out, they will certainly pay your debt for you. Otherwise, they will be embarrassed.”

Zhou Ping was startled. That’s right!

The Gu family was so concerned about its dignity. If others found out that her, the wife of the Third Son had been borrowing money to survive, they would certainly laugh at the Gu family. Then she would not need Gu Yundong. The two old folks from the Gu family would probably offer to pay the debt.

Zhou Ping immediately smiled. “Mother, you’re right. Don’t worry. I’ll go and borrow the money right now and send it to you soon.”

Grandma Zhou immediately praised Zhou Ping again and said, “Besides that, dear daughter, you must find a way to get your older brother and Yaozhu out! It’s almost the new year. They must spend the new year at home.”

Zhou Ping frowned. She really did not know how to do that. How could a woman like her make decisions on such matters?

“I… I would like that too! But Mother, I really can’t!”

“What do you mean you can’t?” Grandma Zhou immediately started to advise her.. “Daughter! Are you stupid? No wonder the Gu family bullies you like that even after you’ve given birth to four sons. Don’t you know what kind of position you hold now?”
