Chapter 150 Little Uncle Missed, An Ran Borrowed Money and Was Humiliated (6)
In the past few years, my little aunt stopped having a baby for a year because of her filial piety. She didn't want to conceive one last year. She had a difficult labor this year. I heard that it was very dangerous. It is estimated that it will be more difficult to conceive in the future.

However, she had already given birth to four children, two sons and two daughters, Wei Qingyuan and Liu Shi were already very satisfied.

Although An Ran and her cousin Xiuqin had few chances to meet each other in the past three years, they hit it off right away, and they became familiar and intimate very quickly.The two elder sisters read and wrote together with six-year-old Xiuya, five-year-old Sen, and four-year-old Xiuyun. The youngest, Xin, was only a few months old. Zhao Yunxing was worried and took it with him.

After staying at my little aunt's house for half a month, the elder sister took them to Wang's house for a few days.Then, Gu Wanniang took their siblings back home for a few days.The rest of the relatives didn't move around much.

After passing the filial piety, Anqi can take the scientific examination.

For the sake of safety, An Ran made the decision, and the family moved to the county seat again.

An Qi went to the county school to study, while An Ran and Yulan were still doing needlework at home, Gu Wanniang had bad eyesight and poor health, so now she could only help them with cooking and so on, An Ran didn’t even let her wash their clothes, fearing that she would use too much cold water She is even worse.

June is the rainy season in the south.An Ran's house has been in disrepair for a long time, and it is leaking everywhere.They took out the pots, buckets, etc. in the house to catch the rainwater, but it was still not enough.

Worried that the books left by his father would be wet by the rain, An Qi took out the winter woolen quilt and covered them on the bookshelf, and managed to keep them all.But people can't help it. It rains heavily outside the house and light rain inside.Fortunately, in June, I don't feel cold, but the wet clothes stick to my body, which is very uncomfortable.

The next day, the rain stopped, but Gu Wanniang fell ill again because of the rain yesterday.An Ran went to ask the doctor to get the medicine early in the morning.

An Qi borrowed a neighbor's ladder to go up to the house to pick up tiles, but unexpectedly, the wooden lattice on the roof had been rotted due to the rain in recent years. He just stepped on it, and the wooden lattice broke and fell down...

An Ran and Yulan hurriedly helped her elder brother to the bed, and rushed to ask for a doctor.But after my elder brother went to the county school, the family spent a lot of money. Everything in the county is more expensive than in the countryside. This morning, I spent a lot of money on seeing the doctor and getting medicine for my mother. Now An Ran really doesn't have much money.The finger ring and jade gourd given by grandpa cannot be regarded as gifts, and the tokens from the He family cannot be regarded as gifts, and other jewelry is almost as good as hers.

How to do?How to do it?

An Ran was in a hurry, only hated that she was not good at embroidery and could not keep up with her mother, otherwise she wouldn't have embroidered so many things and couldn't get much money in exchange.After much deliberation, she had no choice but to go to Gu's house to find her uncle.

She asked Yulan to stay and take care of her mother and brother, and hurried to Gu's house.

The Gu family's business has not been as good as before in recent years.Yinlou didn’t have the design drawings of Anran, so naturally it couldn’t grab business; the business route of Xicheng Jam was replaced by other merchants because of Gu Shengwu’s accident; Yes, and the imperial court strongly supported it, even if the Gu family wanted to be exclusive and sell it at a high price.As a last resort, Gu Shengwen has already sold the shops in other places, and only concentrates on running the business in several nearby counties.

An Ran knocked on the door and went in, and heard from the concierge that her uncle was not there, so she wanted to find her aunt as well, but it happened that her aunt was also out, and the concierge said that the young lady was there.An Ran knew that this eldest grandma was her cousin Gu Shaolin's wife, Zhou Shi, who just entered the house last month and was 15 years old this year.An Ran also came to have a wedding with her mother, and met once.

An Ran came to the living room and waited for a long time before her cousin Zhou came in slowly, and said with a polite smile: "Hey, which gust of wind brought my cousin here? It's a pity that your cousin is not at home now! What's the matter with your cousin? Tell my cousin the same."

Why does An Ran feel a little wrong when he hears this?But it's all over, and she has no other acquaintances in the county to borrow money, so she blushed and said, "My mother fell ill in the rain yesterday, just now my brother went to pick up tiles on the roof and fell down again, urgently." I want to call a doctor, so I want to borrow some money from my uncle and aunt to meet the emergency."

An Ran managed to get out the words about borrowing money, but she heard that Mrs. Zhou sneered and said, "Since when did our family become a relief hall? If anyone comes to borrow money from our family if they have something like this, our Gu family will be counted as one." Mountains of gold and silver are not enough to borrow!"

An Ran only felt that her face was hot, and she felt a humiliation that she had never felt before.But now that her brother is waiting for a doctor, she has to endure it.

Seeing that An Ran's expression had changed, Mrs. Zhou smiled again: "Oh, cousin, cousin sister-in-law is not talking about you. However, the business of our Gu family has been very difficult these past few years! Don't look at this house as bright, and you can't see it anymore. Everyone's chewing is incredible..."

An Ran lowered her head and begged: "Cousin, lend me 20 taels of silver first, okay? I will definitely pay you back. My brother fell on his leg, so he can't be delayed."

"20 taels?" Zhou exclaimed, looking at An Ran mockingly, "I said cousin, you really think our Gu family's money is blown by the strong wind!"

An Ran bit her lip, resisting the humiliation and anger in her heart, stood up and said, "Since it's inconvenient for my cousin sister-in-law, I'll go see my cousin." She thought about the relationship she had with her cousin when she was young, not to mention that her cousin was her brother's Fiancee, you won't care about it, will you?
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhou said in a mocking voice: "What a coincidence, our eldest daughter and wife have gone out!"

An Ran didn't have any face left, and hurried out.

As soon as she ran out of the gate of Gu's house, she heard a bang in the sky, and a huge thunder rolled over her head. She was so frightened that she couldn't stand still when she went down the stairs, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, with burning pain in her ankle.She endured the pain and stood up, and the big raindrops fell down, quickly drenching her into a drenched chicken.An Ran raised her head, gritted her teeth and ran hard in the rain, while crying silently and freely...

She only hated herself for being useless.Other time-traveling girls can lead the whole family to make a fortune, but she is able to keep her mother and brother fed and clothed, but her brother can't delay, so she ran to the Cirentang drugstore on East Avenue in a hurry.Maybe Dr. Xu is kind enough to allow her to pay for the medicine on credit for a while to help her brother see the leg and get the medicine first?
