Gu Nuan stood by, not knowing what to say as she saw her parents' unwavering resolve.
Zhang Sanfeng had another idea, planning to spend some money to hire a young and strong person to carry him upstairs.
Gu's mother and father immediately opposed the suggestion, "Why waste money on that?"
The frugal Gu Family would never allow a penny to go to waste; if they could do the work themselves, they absolutely wouldn't let others earn it.
This is the life situation of ordinary people, their consumer mindset, their financial understanding. Gu Nuan knew that if she argued with her parents again and told them they were wrong, it would be akin to denying their world view, a slap in the face of her elders. That bit of face, however, must be preserved for her parents.
Zhang Sanfeng was also a spiritualist and, seeing the situation, also felt at a loss. Ultimately, it was not as good as Gu's mother's suggestion, to let Gu's father try first.
