Review Comments
The top component is the phonetic element which is derived from 敝. The 新借 reading of 敝 is bi, but other characters with the 敝 phonetic element read similar to be. Note: The tone -z in 新借 is related to ancient 入声, this situation is also the same in Theater Mandarin of Naning Yongju Opera.

蹩 bez

Note on 新借 tones, this is a written convention not a spoken one, the actual spoken tone for modern loans (新借) varies from dialect to dialect. Since entering tones become second tones in south-western mandarin then they are written as second tones ~z. However, in a particular dialect the actual tone used would be whichever is closest to the second tone in south-western mandarin
