Chapter 975: How Could He Lend It Out?

Ye Lanlan saw that Ye Ling didn't reply so she said again, "Ling, I beg you. Just lend me four or five taels of silver. I will definitely find a way to repay you!"

The reason she came to borrow money this time was because her husband suddenly became addicted to gambling. He had a debt of three taels of silver. If he couldn't pay it back on time, interest would be charged, making it even harder to repay.

All of her relatives refused to lend her money when they learned the debt was due to gambling.

After all, everyone on earth knew money lent to a gambling addict was money that they were never going to see again!

"Don't call me Ling. I can't stand it," Ye Ling said without any hesitation. "I won't lend you the money because I don't even have one wen on me! You should go borrow it from your grandmother or Brother Xuan."

In his mind, all the money he spent on medicine, food, and clothes, came from his brothers' hard work. He didn't have any income at all!
