Gu Chengxiang held Mrs. An back from finding Gu Ya, but she was still displeased, feeling that Gu Ya should help his younger brother repay the gambling debt. Gu Chengxiang continued, "If our fourth brother doesn't change his gambling ways, our third brother can help him repay once, but what about in the future? Should the third brother and his wife always help Tiezhu repay the money every time?"
This time Mrs. An said nothing, and Gu Chengxiang went on, "Anyway, the people at the gambling house didn't do anything to our son this time. They just asked him to do some work, and it's nothing. Let him go and do it."
Although Mrs. An was still uneasy at heart, she didn't oppose Gu Chengxiang's words anymore.
So this matter was settled just like that. Mrs. An did not go to find Gu Ya and his wife to have them help Gu Tiezhu repay the money. Gu Tiezhu continued to work for the place found by the gambling house, carrying and delivering goods like rice and soybeans for people.
