"Doesn't mother need to consult me on this matter?" Wei Ruo said.
"I'm not consulting you, but I want you to do something for your older brother," Mrs. Yun said decisively.
"You mean, you want me to pay off the rent for my elder brother's house in the provincial city?" Wei Ruo gave a slight smile.
"Yes." Mrs. Yun said, "You don't have to feel cheated, your grandparents have given you plenty of presents, your elder brother has treated you well, and this family has supported you as well. You should at least contribute something for this home."
Then Mrs. Yun added, "I wouldn't ask you for money if we didn't lack savings. I promise you when the farm and shop profits come in this year, I'll return this money to you."
This time Mrs. Yun was both polite and sincere.
Wei Ruo thought for a moment and said, "I'll lend the money, but on one condition."
