It's two different feelings to want to help someone you feel sorry for, and it's two different feelings to help someone you're morally pressured into doing so.
"Auntie, sister-in-law, please, please save my little girl!"
After Gou Dan's second cousin stood up, she continued to plead with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Seeing that the other party did not show any "I won't get up unless you help me" attitude, Yue Jiuyue softened a bit. She went back to the house, took out one hundred coins, put them in a drawstring purse, and handed them to Erman'er.
Erman'er left, thanking him profusely.
Speaking of which, Uncle Gou Dan's family has three daughters, but those three girls have lost their mother. Their father is a man who only knows how to work hard and never cares about the three sisters, perhaps because they are all girls.
After all, in this era, if not 100%, then 99% of people want sons and grandsons. For people of this era, sons are the ones who carry on the family line, uphold the household, and provide for their elders in their old age.
As for daughters, perhaps only families with only male members would yearn for them.
It was also because of Uncle Gou Dan's indifference that Grandma Gou Dan would beat and scold the three sisters all the time. If she didn't like something or see anything that displeased her, she would hit them or curse them without considering the occasion.
This time, although we still don't know what caused the old lady to lose her temper, she was knocked unconscious and wouldn't be allowed to go to the hospital. This is no longer a grandmother and granddaughter. Even a landlord wouldn't be this cruel to the servants he bought.
Of course, these are all other people's business. They are too busy with their own affairs to care about whether others are doing well or badly. At most, they might sigh after hearing about it, or lend a hand when lives are at stake like now.
At Yue Jiuyue's home, this matter is considered over. As for the money that was lent out, it will naturally be repaid by Gou Dan's grandparents. These days, aren't the older generation the ones in charge?
After borrowing the money, Erman'er scattered the coins in her purse, hiding a few in her bosom, a few in her sleeve pocket, and then...
In short, she wouldn't keep all the money in one place; that would be blatantly telling her grandmother that she had borrowed money and inviting her to rob her.
Although she had been tormented by her grandmother since childhood and was like a wooden doll, she could usually endure being beaten and scolded without crying or resisting. But when her older sister was married off by her grandmother with two bags of grain as a dowry to a man about the same age as their father, and became a stepmother to children about the same age as them, it was the first time she mustered up the courage to resist.
The consequence was that not only did she fail to stop her older sister from getting married, but she was also beaten all over by her grandmother and had to do more work than usual every day. If she didn't finish, she would be beaten again.
This is the second time she has mustered the courage to resist, and fortunately, this time it should have a good outcome.
Fearing that something might be amiss, Erman'er knelt on the ground and continued to cry and beg even after returning to the fields. Although she was beaten again, her grandmother finally relented.
"I'm telling you in advance, you'll have to pay for Xiaoman's medical treatment yourself. It has nothing to do with the family."
"Grandma, I understand."
Ermaner responded hesitantly, then picked up her younger sister who was lying on the ground and quickly went down the mountain.
After all this time has been wasted, I don't even know if my sister can be saved...
