I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night-Chapter 38

Pride!

“Mother, I know that you want my sister to marry that widower because you want her to settle down in the northern region in the future. With Brother-in-law’s ability as a butcher, he can make our lives easier.”

Du Juan’er was flustered, but she still said what Du Miao’er had told her previously, “But that widower already has two children at home. Moreover, he has two younger brothers and a mean old mother. Even if my sister marries over, how many people can help our family?”

Du Juan’er spoke very quickly. When she heard this, the mean expression on her face hadn’t disappeared, but her tone had clearly softened. “Then what does your sister mean?

She wants to marry into the Fang family?!

Although the Fang family still had a son who wasn’t married yet, weren’t there a bunch of people in their family?!

“Besides, Old Madam Luo looks kind, but she’s not easy to fool! How much profit can our family get from your sister marrying him?!”

Although she was greedy and mean, she wasn’t stupid. After weighing the pros and cons, she naturally knew which side was more beneficial to her.

The Fang family seemed good, but only for Du Miao’er. To her, it might not be.

“It’s not the Fang family. It’s that hunter, Gu Erlang.” Du Juan’er gritted her teeth and told Du Wangshi her sister’s plan in a low voice. “I’ve asked my sister. There’s no one else in his family now, and there’s no family on this trip. He only a wife beside him, and that wife doesn’t look strong. I haven’t seen her do any heavy work.

Gu Erlang was a capable man. It was said that whenever he entered the mountains, he would never return empty-handed. It was said that Gu Erlang had brought those people to hunt this wild boar today!

If my sister married over and Gu Erlang had no other relatives to rely on, wouldn’t our family be his only family?!

With the help of a son-in-law like Gu Erlang, my junior and the others might be able to study in a private school! When they become successful in the future, will you still have to be afraid that you won’t have wealth to enjoy?!”

Du Wangshi was stunned. She really didn’t expect her two stepdaughters to have such intentions.

However, on second thought, Gu Erlang would really be much better than the widower. At least, without parents or family, he would be much better off.

At the very least, since he had the ability to hunt, they wouldn’t have to worry about food or drink at home in the future!

“But isn’t Gu Erlang’s wife still fine?!”

When Du Wangshi thought of that thick and spacious ox cart, the greed in her heart couldn’t help but surge. It was a good idea to let that wretched girl test the waters first. If Gu Erlang’s family was really rich, since Ling’er wasn’t young, Ling’er was definitely a good candidate for marriage!

“Isn’t it still a long way from the camp?” Du Juan’er lowered her head, gritted her teeth, and said in a soft voice. Although their plan was indeed a little unkind, every man for himself!

The sisters had no way out!

Anyway, at most, when her sister married him, she would set up a memorial tablet for her!

“Then I’ll be frank. You can’t ruin our family’s reputation! If you affect Ling’er in the end, I’ll tear you two apart one by one!”

Du Wangshi raised her eyebrows slightly and sized up Du Juan’er before warning slowly, “Tell your sister that if she has the ability to succeed, it’s fine, but if there’s still no news before we reach the camp, then marry that horse butcher obediently! Understand?!”

Du Juan’er nodded repeatedly and heaved a sigh of relief. She quickly stood up and was about to tell Du Miao’er the good news.

Lin Suisui naturally didn’t know that she and Lu Ze had already become targets. She was in the ox cart checking Lu Ze’s condition.

Because of the effect of the pills that she had previously prepared, although the remaining poison in Lu Ze’s body hadn’t been completely eliminated, at least it had a small impact on his body now.

During this period of time, Lin Suisui had relied on silver needles to clear the poison for him. After persistent usage, it was quite effective.

Looking at the bowl of thick black poisonous blood that was suffused with a stench forced out of Lu Ze’s fingertips, Lin Suisui didn’t look relaxed at all. “We can only suppress it for the time being. If we want to completely eradicate it, we have to wait until we reach the base before we can think about it.”

The poison in Lu Ze’s body was very complicated. Now that resources were limited, she couldn’t completely understand the contents. She could only try her best to reduce the adverse effects of this medicine on Lu Ze’s body.

“It’s fine.” Lu Ze was already used to it. He sat up and dressed before asking about her visit to Mrs. Luo’s house to treat the Du sisters. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦

“It’s easy to dodge a spear in the open, but difficult to guard against an arrow in the dark. I think it’s not a good idea to hide like this. I might as well probe the situation and figure out what they want to do!”

Lin Suisui also had her own considerations about this matter.

“If they were really desperate and only wanted Mrs. Luo to help, then I would have done my part as a doctor by saving them. But if they really had ulterior motives, I shouldn’t have let them successfully harm Mrs. Luo and the others.”

Lu Ze nodded and didn’t object to Lin Suisui’s actions. He only reminded her to be careful.

After three consecutive days of cloudy weather, the weather finally cleared up. Du Miao’er, who had been living in the Luo family’s tent, finally recovered when everyone set off again.

Du Miao’er was naturally grateful for Mrs. Luo’s help. If not for Mrs. Luo stopping her stepmother, she would have knelt down and kowtowed to her.

However, Mrs. Luo didn’t intend to continue her relationship with this pair of sisters. She only wanted to quickly send them away so that she could have some peace.

Du Miao’er wasn’t in a hurry to leave. Instead, she continued to stand in front of Mrs. Luo and asked in a low voice, “Aunt, how much did you pay for the doctor? I can’t let you spend money!”

Mrs. Luo was stunned. The person who was treating Du Miao’er was Lin Suisui. She had yet to ask about the consultation fee!

However, Mrs. Luo also knew that these sisters weren’t to be trifled with. Thinking of her previous suspicion, she subconsciously didn’t want to implicate Lin Suisui and the others in this matter, so she said very generously, “It’s just a few bags of herbs. How much can it be worth? It’s not a big deal. Your health is important, so don’t worry about it. Go back and rest!”
