"Dad!" Gu Xi slightly parted her lips, not sure what to say. Before coming, she had told her husband that it would be better for both of them to come together! But her husband insisted on begging his mother and refused to come to the Gu Family. She knew he couldn't bring himself to ask her parents for money, but what good would it do to beg his mother? Even if his mother had money, would she really pool together eighteen taels for him? Not to mention, his mother wouldn't give it to him at all.
"Elder sister! Dad is right. For such a big matter like borrowing money, shouldn't brother-in-law come along? It's getting dark, and he lets you, a woman, walk back to your maternal home alone. How does he feel assured?" This time Gu Chengyi also agreed with his father. Eighteen taels of silver! Brother-in-law just let elder sister come back alone to borrow it? Is this not bowing his head?
