I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night-Chapter 51 - Almost Boiled!

“So much silver was handed over just like that?!”

naturally didn’t believe this.

If the prince rewarded them, there would be at least a thousand taels!

A thousand taels! If it were her, she would have left a few hundred taels in her own hands. She would have sent some back to her family, but why did Lin Suisui give all the silver to a man?!

“Yes, I saw it with my own eyes.”

Du Miao’er nodded. She was very sure of this. Moreover, even if Lin Suisui kept some for herself, Du Miao’er wouldn’t reveal it now!

“In that case, Madam Liu is really stupid.” Du Ling’er couldn’t help but laugh when she heard this. She commented disdainfully, “But it doesn’t matter if she’s stupid or not. As long as I’m capable, I’ll just coax the silver from Gu Erlang! If she’s stupid, wouldn’t things be easier for me?!” ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m

Du Ling’er’s words were unanimously agreed upon by the others in the Du family.

Some of them even began to consider how to spend the money.

However, Du Wangshi, who had always been especially concerned about money, didn’t say anything. She just sat there with a frown while thinking about something. She ignored the eager discussion beside her.

Others might not understand, but Du Miao’er wasn’t stupid. From her stepmother’s usual style of doing things, she could more or less guess what she was thinking at this moment. She didn’t delay any longer and spoke directly.

“Mother, I know what you’re thinking now. You’re thinking that Gu Erlang doesn’t have any other family and he has so much money, so it would definitely be perfect if Ling’er were to marry him.

But…”

“What nonsense are you talking about?! Who wants to marry Gu Erlang?! I will reject that mediocre and boring man even if he’s sent to me for free. Only you find him interesting. You’re so shameless that you don’t care that he already has a wife. Don’t think that I’m as shameless as you!”

Before Du Miao’er could finish speaking, Du Ling’er, who was sitting opposite her, stood up and threw her chopsticks at Du Miao’er.

The scene was very chaotic.

Du Ling’er was used to getting her way at home. How could she take Du Miao’er seriously?!

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, Du Luo quickly stood up and stopped Du Ling’er, who was about to pounce on Du Miao’er and hit her. After Du Luo persuaded her for a long time, she finally calmed down a little. At least, she stopped clamoring.

“Don’t worry. I’ll still say the same thing. You picked this marriage yourself. You fancy him, but we don’t take him seriously at all! 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Therefore, you don’t have to think about all that nonsense. Ling’er has her own match. Besides, I’m still alive. It’s not your turn to interfere in her marriage!”

Du Wangshi stared at Du Miao’er for a long time before sneering. She basically helped Du Ling’er insult Du Miao’er.

Of course, she knew what Du Miao’er meant.

Indeed, before today, she did feel that Gu Erlang was indeed a good candidate. However, after knowing that he had that sum of money, she looked down on him!

No matter what, he was just a hunter in the wilderness. If she had such a sum of money, she would be able to prepare a lavish dowry for Ling’er. Would she still have to worry about Ling’er not being able to marry into a good family?!

If Ling’er married into a scholarly family and found a diligent husband, wouldn’t her future life be a hundred times better than if she had married a hunter?!

Du Wangshi already had a plan in mind, but she didn’t reveal it immediately.

She had controlled Du Miao’er for so long, so she naturally understood Du Miao’er’s thoughts. She also understood that Du Miao’er explained everything because she wanted her help!

However, she didn’t intend to agree so easily.

This girl had to beg again and again!

The Du family each had their own thoughts, but at least they had a peaceful night. The next morning, the refugees, who had rested for half a month, could finally set off. This made the refugees, who had been on tenterhooks because of the plague for so long, show rare joy on their faces. Even though they knew that the future was bound to be difficult, it was better than waiting for death here.

However, unlike the overjoyed refugees, Du Yuanruo, who was the only one who had yet to recover, wasn’t happy!

He had thought of all kinds of ways that Pei Qian would torture him, but no matter what, he didn’t expect that Pei Qian actually found a large vat and placed him in it like a pickled vegetable…

Now that the temperature outside was low, even if a pot of water was boiled, the water would become cold after being placed outside for a while. However, Pei Qian had a special solution. He even set up a brazier under the vat to heat it up at any time…

“Pei Qian, f*ck your ancestors!”

Du Yuanruo cursed, but he couldn’t stop the officials and soldiers in the entire refugee camp from listening to Pei Qian’s instructions. Therefore, other than cursing, he couldn’t find any way to escape the current predicament.

“Madam Liu, I know that you’re the kindest! Look, you even took good care of those refugees. I’m also your patient. You can’t just watch me be soaked in a vat and cooked forever, right?!”

Du Yuanruo cursed all the way, but realized that it was useless to continue cursing like this. Moreover, what was most unacceptable was that Pei Qian didn’t give him any water to drink!

The food provided was also as hard and dry as stone.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought of asking the soldier driving the carriage for water, but the soldier actually said that as long as he lowered his head, he could drink a jar of water…

That bastard Pei Qian!

Du Yuanruo finally resigned himself to fate after a day. When he saw Lin Suisui, who had come to check on his condition, he was even more pious than if he had seen Buddha.

Although he was a good-for-nothing, he wasn’t stupid.

If the young lady in front of him was willing to put in a good word for him, he wouldn’t have to continue being cooked like this, right?!

“Young Master Du, your injuries haven’t healed yet. This medicinal bath is for the sake of your injuries.” Lin Suisui stood by the carriage as she sized up the situation in the carriage, but she didn’t get close.

Her tone was very gentle, but Du Yuanruo wasn’t comforted. He, who was usually a tyrant in the capital, was about to cry at this moment. “I think I’m already fine. If I continue to stay in hot water like this, I think I’ll be cooked!”
