Yang Laidi was fiddling with her fingers, and she had picked off a layer of nails from both of her index fingers.
She finally mustered up her courage and said, "Yun, I know I'm being abrupt, but I really have no other choice. I want to borrow some grain from you. Don't worry, I'll definitely pay you back once the grain is distributed!"
Yun Ningyan asked in confusion, "Borrowing grain? What about your own grain?"
She replied awkwardly, "My younger brother is getting married, and my family wants me to send money and food, but I've borrowed from everyone I know, so I came to you because I had no other choice."
As soon as she finished speaking, the tears that had been welling up in her eyes finally streamed down her face!

With just two sentences, Yun Ningyan utterly shattered Yang Laidi's self-esteem.
Yang Laidi was heartbroken and left in a daze.
But Yun Ningyan spoke lightly, saying that her younger brother was waiting for her food and money to get married.
