I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

226 You Have To Choose Between Wealth and Life!

“Then, what do you want me to do?!” Ma Deng gritted her teeth and looked at Lin Suisui. A hint of embarrassment flashed across her eyes, but she was even more angry and resentful that her trick didn’t succeed!

She had married into the Ma family for many years. The mundane life of taking care of her husband and raising her children had never been what she wanted!

However, there were many things that she couldn’t decide on.

For example, her family wasn’t prominent. She was just the daughter of a blacksmith, and her husband wasn’t very promising. He was just a ruffian who dawdled all day long.

Originally, this would have been how she lived her entire life, but her husband’s adopted brother, Gao Xuwei, suddenly caught the eye of the Pei family’s eldest daughter.

As the saying went, when a person attained the Dao, even chickens and dogs would ascend to the heavens.

With Gao Xuwei’s newly attained glory, his former followers naturally had a chance to climb the social ladder as well!

At that time, everyone felt that they were lucky. They only saw the glory and wealth in front of them. After all, they were buddies who shared blessings and hardships back then. Everyone had each other’s back!

Therefore, now that Gao Xuwei had become rich, they thought that Gao Xuwei wanted everyone to share his current wealth!

Only she saw the danger and knew that Gao Xuwei was unreliable!

Therefore, she quickly tried her best to curry favor with the wife of the general who stabilized the north. Pei Zhaoyue, who had always been difficult to serve, quickly treated her like her own sister!

Over the years, because of this, the Ma family had become the most prominent family in Cloud Mountain City! Those so-called “buddies” who had clamored that they wanted to share wealth and glory with Gao Xuwei had long been killed!

However, it was also because of her interaction with the General’s residence that she was getting more and more exhausted. Of course, what made her even angrier wasn’t that her useless husband and son didn’t listen to her reminder and only knew how to fool around outside, but that her ungrateful husband actually took a fancy to another young woman after he became rich!

Doting on his concubine and getting rid of his wife…

How dare he!

Because she had already established relations with the wife of the general who stabilized the north, the Ma family didn’t kick her out. However, that was all!

What was especially ironic was that the Ma family actually thought that she would tolerate it if they didn’t kick her out!

However, how could they have forgotten how the Ma family climbed up the social ladder?!

While the old man was flirting with those little vixens, she had already collected all the Ma family’s accounts. She was just waiting to use these things to escape when a day like today came!

The wealth she had gathered over the years was long enough for her to live a carefree life for the rest of her life! Lying low was just a temporary cover!

“I’ll present these things to my husband. When he finds out the whole story, he definitely won’t let you suffer mistreatment!

Since you said that you want to lie low and change your ways, you have to do it thoroughly!

You should hand over all the dirty money you have!

“We won’t embezzle this money. We’ll only use them to compensate the victims you’ve hurt in the past. The rest will be used to buy food and medicine to help the elderly and the poor. Just treat it as atonement for your sins!”

Lin Suisui looked at Ma Deng, whose face had suddenly turned pale, and replied very bluntly. There was no possibility of compromise at all.

“Then what about my son and me? You have to leave us some money to live on, right?!” Madam Ma Deng gritted her teeth and made her final struggle.

“I said that I’m just confiscating all the dirty money you have! As for your dowry, isn’t it enough to spend in the future?!

After all, you just said that you were going to change your ways and atone!

Since you’re going to repent, do you still need to live a luxurious life like before?!”

Lin Suisui didn’t retreat at all. Instead, she forced Ma Deng, who was standing in front of her, to take a big step back.

“I-I have to think about it carefully!” Seeing that Lin Suisui refused to give in, Ma Deng finally hesitated. She wanted to escape quickly, but if she lost the money in her hand, what was the point of trying so hard to escape?!

Were they really going to live a life of poverty?! Wouldn’t that be a joke?!

“Since you’ve already sent the things over, there’s no reason to take them back.” Seeing that Ma Deng was about to reach out to take the small package off the table, Lin Suisui stopped her.

“Leave it behind. I’ll give you time to think about it.

“For the time being, you have to choose between money and your life.” Lin Suisui smiled at Ma Deng and gestured for Bai Guo to take the package in front of Ma Deng. Then, she met Ma Deng’s murderous gaze and continued with a calm expression, “You’re a smart person. You definitely know what to choose.”

Lin Suisui turned around. Su Le, who was waiting outside, had already led people over and escorted Lin Suisui downstairs and into the carriage.

After they sat down, Lin Suisui gestured for Bai Guo to lift the curtain and handed the package in her hand to Su Le, who was guarding outside. “Su Le, send this package to your master. Tell him that it was sent by Mrs. Ma!”

Su Le nodded and quickly arranged for a guard to send the things to the Imperial City’s government office. Seeing that things had been settled, he continued to escort Lin Suisui towards the shop.

When Lin Suisui returned, Lu Ze was already waiting for her in the pavilion.

“Why are you back so early today?!”

Seeing Lu Ze return home so early, Lin Suisui was clearly surprised. As she took off her cloak, she walked towards Lu Ze.

Glancing at the booklet Lu Ze was reading and the familiar small package on the brick bed, she roughly knew what he was reading.

After taking the tea from Bai Guo, she sat down beside the bed and told Lu Ze about Ma Deng taking the initiative to look for her when she went out today. Then, she pointed at the books on the bed. “Take a look and see if they’re useful!

Anyway, I’ve already told her that she has to choose between money and her life!

How could someone escape unscathed after doing so many evil things?!

She even mentioned lying low and repenting. She made it sound so nice!

She has been accumulating wealth with Pei Zhaoyue for so many years. The money in her hand is more than enough for her to live lavishly for the rest of her life!

“Since she said that she wants to lead a simple life while she repented, why is she still thinking about these materialistic things? Can’t she hand them over to benefit the less privileged?!”
