She was driven out of the house when she asked her sister-in-law for a loan. When she got home and opened her bag, she was overcome with emotion at what she saw inside.

The harmony of a big family requires everyone's effort, and mutual support when difficulties arise. If everyone is selfish and only thinks of themselves, unwilling to help others, such a person is only suited to living alone and could never fit into a big family.

Ping'er was a woman who had a hard life. Her husband had a small accident on his way to work and injured his leg in a collision. Although his life was not in danger, his work was delayed, and the family suddenly lost its source of income, while also facing a large sum of money for medical treatment.

Ping'er threw all her dowry into it, but still could not scrape together the medical fees. She lay awake most of the night, and decided to go ask her sister-in-law for a loan. Ping'er's sister-in-law was known as a tigress, holding the family's financial power. Normally, if she told her husband to go east, he would not dare go west. The family ran a small restaurant with a decent income, but the sister-in-law was also very shrewd and recorded every single expense.

Stepping through the sister-in-law's door, Ping'er felt a bit hesitant to go forward. It happened that the sister-in-law had guests at home, but thinking of her husband in the hospital, Ping'er could not worry about that anymore and directly said she wanted to borrow five thousand yuan from her sister-in-law.

Hearing this, the sister-in-law's expression changed. Her attitude toward Ping'er had not been very warm to begin with. She had made a cup of tea and handed it to her without much greeting, then went to talk with the guests, leaving Ping'er aside. Now, hearing that she had come to borrow money, she became even colder. She said her restaurant was facing business difficulties and she could barely protect herself, and told Ping'er to go home and think of another way.

Ping'er cried all the way home. Her sister-in-law was being too heartless, unwilling to help even her own husband's younger brother. Cursing her sister-in-law a few times silently, Ping'er prepared to ask her own family for help. She opened her bag to get her phone, and when she saw what was inside, she was overcome with emotion. There was an extra envelope in the bag, and when she opened it, it actually contained five thousand yuan.

Just as Ping'er was puzzled, her sister-in-law sent a short message. It turned out that the guests at her sister-in-law's home today were not good people at all. They had eaten at her sister-in-law's restaurant and deliberately caused trouble, claiming they had gotten sick from the food and demanding two thousand yuan in compensation. The sister-in-law could only speak nicely to them, saying the restaurant had been losing money all along and that she herself owed others money. At that moment, when Ping'er spoke up to borrow money, if the sister-in-law had agreed, would she not have been exposed? So the sister-in-law could only drive Ping'er out, but secretly put the money in Ping'er's bag.

Looking at her sister-in-law's message, Ping'er cried. It turned out her sister-in-law also had so many hardships, but she herself did not know how to read the situation and speak appropriately, blurting everything out in front of outsiders and nearly making things difficult for her sister-in-law. Yet her sister-in-law not only did not blame her, but secretly gave her the money. Everyone had been wronging her sister-in-law all along.
