Chapter 98 Production Team Leader
Halfway there, she stopped An Hao.
"An Hao, I need to discuss something with you," Zhang Juyun said, looking at her smilingly.
Seeing Zhang Juyun, An Hao had a bad feeling, but she still smiled and said, "Auntie, what’s the matter? Just tell me!"
"I’m here to ask for money," Zhang Juyun said, showing an expression that was a mix of embarrassment and helplessness, "Don’t be mad at your auntie. I know about your dad’s situation, and normally I wouldn’t hesitate to help. But this time I can’t, as your uncle doesn’t know that I have set this money aside. My mom has also not been well recently, and I’ve saved it to buy her some supplements. You see, I have to go to the city tomorrow, so this money..."
An Hao immediately understood that this was just an excuse from Zhang Juyun.
The money was hers, and if she didn’t want to lend it, An Hao couldn’t force her.
"Okay, auntie, I understand," An Hao took out the money and returned it to Zhang Juyun, "Here’s all fifty. Please thank Uncle Song for me."
As she spoke, Song Jincai caught up and returned the IOU to An Hao, "Uncle, I’m really sorry..."
An Hao smiled at him and waved her hand, "It’s alright. I’ll go borrow money from someone else."
In the evening, after returning home, An Hao sat on the kang, exhausted and unable to utter a single word. She had traveled from the east end of the village to the west end, talking herself hoarse without having managed to borrow any money.
Seeing An Hao’s dejected look, An Ping felt sorry for his sister. He poured a bowl of water and handed it to An Hao, "Sis, don’t get upset, there’s always a solution."
