Reborn in the 80s: She Rewrites Life with Radiance-Chapter 65: Second Sister-in-law Gu’s Father Has an Accident

Chapter 65: Chapter 65: Second Sister-in-law Gu’s Father Has an Accident

"I had thought about this before, and discussed it with your elder brother. Our idea is to let your second brother and second sister-in-law get involved."

While Sister-in-law was speaking, Gu Yi kept watching her.

The expression on Sister-in-law’s face told her that she and Brother Gu had discussed it thoroughly, and she seemed willing.

"I think doing business shouldn’t be forced. Let’s ask Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law what they think."

Actually, Gu Yi really hoped they would work together since both of them are her brothers.

But she would not insist, sticking to the principle of voluntariness, knowing that a forced melon is not sweet.

"Okay, I’ll ask your Second Sister-in-law later."

Sister-in-law felt it made a lot of sense after hearing this.

"I just went to Second Sister-in-law’s house. She took Minmin to her grandmother’s house. Sister-in-law, we can discuss it again tonight."

"That’s fine."

"Elder Sister-in-law, my idea is to, after Brother Gu finishes, just test sell it in front of my shop without finding another place. What do you think?"

Gu Yi also didn’t know how it would turn out, but she wanted to save costs as much as possible initially.

"I don’t understand this, go ahead and ask your elder brother about it later and see what he says."

Although Sister-in-law is clever, she had never dealt with such things, so she relied heavily on Brother Gu.

"Yes, Elder Sister-in-law, when you talk to Brother Gu, mention that if the business is in the city, it’s unlikely to come back every day, so you can stay at my place."

Sister-in-law held Gu Yi’s hand.

"Yiyi, thank you, I truly don’t know what to say. In the future, for anything you need help with, just ask elder brother and sister-in-law."

Sister-in-law felt genuinely touched after hearing Gu Yi’s words but didn’t want to make it just about niceties; such talks could dilute genuine feelings.

She silently resolved to treat Gu Yi like a real younger sister in the future.

"Sister-in-law, among family, there’s no need for formality. It’s just the three of us siblings, so if we don’t help each other, who can we rely on? Don’t you agree?"

Gu Yi clasped Sister-in-law’s hand in return, knowing that brothers in arms and family bonds are strong.

Without harmony and mutual support among family, outsiders would just laugh at them.

"Yes, Yiyi, let’s go to dad and mom’s place now, and I will cook."

Said Sister-in-law, calling out Gu Hui, got ready, and went with Gu Yi to the Gu family parents’ house.

After lunch, Gu Yi left.

She didn’t expect, after she left, a major event happened at home.

Second Sister-in-law’s father fell off the mountain and was unconscious.

The family sent him to the county hospital.

The doctor said he had a cranial fracture with internal bleeding and multiple body fractures.

To treat him, a craniotomy must be performed, which would cost a lot of money, and even if he is saved, he won’t be able to do heavy work anymore.

If they don’t treat, they can only bring him home to await death.

The family didn’t want a living person to die like this.

But if treatment was chosen, where would the money come from?

The whole family fell into silence.

If they treat him, he might not fully recover, even if he survives, he won’t be the same.

Finally, Brother Fang spoke up, saying everyone should go home and pool money together, no matter what, they must treat him.

Sisters and Mrs. Fang stayed at the hospital to take care of him.

The rest went back to gather money.

In the evening, Second Sister-in-law Fang Hongmei came back with red eyes, bringing Gu Min home.

All from a nearby village, Gu’s parents had heard about Father Fang in the afternoon too.

Seeing her back, they quickly asked what the situation was now.

Second Sister-in-law told them what the doctor said, then started crying.

Brother Gu and Gu the second brother, because they worked far away, were unaware of the event.

When they got home, the whole family was waiting for them.

Fang Hongmei saw Gu the second brother return.

She walked to his side, barely opened her mouth to call his name, then couldn’t control her emotions.

"Since this happened, as in-laws, we can’t just stand by. Elder Brother and Elder Sister-in-law, help if you can, but no pressure."

After the family sat down, Gu’s father stood up and said.

"I will discuss it with your mother, and since you are all here today, here is one thousand yuan. Half is for your emergency needs, the other half is what you two shall borrow. Any objections?"

After Gu’s father finished speaking, he looked at his two sons and second daughter-in-law.

"Dad, we have no objections. Tomorrow I’ll have Chunlan withdraw the money. Right now, people’s lives are more important. These worldly possessions can be earned again."

Brother Gu first stated his opinion, then looked towards Sister-in-law.

"I have no objections either. Hongmei, I’ll withdraw the money tomorrow."

Sister-in-law looked at Second Sister-in-law and said.

"Thanks to mom and dad, and my elder brother and sister-in-law. This money is borrowed by us, and I will certainly repay you in the future."

Second Sister-in-law said, starting to cry again. It was unlike her to say such words in the past.

This time, she was really scared. freeweɓnovel-cøm

"Yes, the money is what we borrowed. Thank you, mom and dad, elder brother and sister-in-law."

Gu the second brother hugged Second Sister-in-law and patted her shoulder, addressed everyone earnestly.

"Alright, have something to eat, rest up at home. Hongmei, tomorrow your mom and I won’t go to the hospital; it’s likely chaotic there now. We would just be in the way."

Fang Hongmei nodded.

Early the next morning, Sister-in-law and Gu the second brother and sister-in-law dropped off their children at Gu’s mother’s place and rushed to town without even having breakfast.

After they got the money, Gu the second brother and sister-in-law went straight to the county.

When they arrived, other family members arrived one after another.

Everyone pooled their money together, and Brother Fang wrote down every contribution with names and amounts, tallying it up.

The surgery cost was still short by two thousand yuan.

The whole family was anxious about this.

The doctor in the morning stressed the need to converge the money fast. The patient couldn’t afford to wait long.

"Then everyone go back and see if we can borrow any more, I’ve kept a record of expenses, later each household will share the cost equally."

"I really have borrowed from all relatives and neighbors, who can I borrow from now?"

Suggested Brother Fang’s fourth sister-in-law.

Later, many agreed it was indeed hard to find more lenders.

Second Sister-in-law suddenly thought of Gu Yi, she didn’t say it on the spot but pulled Gu the second brother aside.

"Hongmei, what’s up?"

"Do you think we could borrow some from Yiyi?"

Second Sister-in-law didn’t insist on borrowing from Gu Yi, every family has its difficulties.

Gu Yi just bought a house, and they didn’t help at all, it’s tough to ask, but she was really out of ideas.

"Alright, I’ll ask her later, but bear in mind, Gu Yi just bought a house. I heard her in-laws paid part of it last time, so she might not have money on her. It’s great if we can borrow, but don’t feel upset if we can’t, okay?"

Gu the second brother actually didn’t want to ask Gu Yi, but he had no other choice, and he had to go this once.

But if because of this, the family’s relationship strained, it wouldn’t be worth it.

So he had to make things clear with Second Sister-in-law.

"I know, that’s why I didn’t mention it before everyone but pulled you over here to talk. During this time, I’ve also seen Yiyi’s character. Rest assured."

"Alright, I’ll go now, don’t cry anymore, okay?"

With that, he wiped her tears and went in Gu Yi’s direction.
