Chapter 186: 236

236 Collecting Debt!

“Didn’t they have a protocol for dealing with such matters in the past?!”

Although Lin Suisui had never personally experienced such a thing before, when she was a doctor, she had participated in many volunteer medical consultations with her mentor.

This kind of relief seemed complicated, but in fact, in every place, especially in Cloud Mountain City, where there was snow almost every year, weren’t there any old protocols?!

“To be honest, there’s actually no need to mention the relief in the past years.” The Prefectural Governor’s wife sighed and revealed, “In the past years, the relief effort received a lot of money and clothing from rich families, but in the end, only a few bowls of watery porridge were sent to the people.”

As soon as the Prefectural Governor’s wife spoke, Lin Suisui understood why she had come.

It was probably because the annual relief was a great opportunity for Pei Zhaoyue and Ma Deng to rake in money. They didn’t give anything to the refugees, so such a plan definitely couldn’t be used now.

However, at the mention of Ma Deng…

Lin Suisui suddenly remembered that Ma Deng still owed her a sum of money. Ma Deng’s money would be of great use at this time!

Also, since Pei Zhaoyue had embezzled so much money from the refugees previously, how could it be so easy for her to stay out of it this year?!

“How about this? There are three things to do for the refugees now. First, we have to ensure that they don’t freeze or starve to death in this cold winter. Second, we have to take care of them to prevent them from contracting typhoid. Third, we have to rebuild their homes.

However, no matter what, to achieve these three things, they needed money!

“Madam, please follow the arrangements you made every year to help the refugees. Go to the wives of various families and ask them to do their best. If there’s money, donate some. If there are resources, donate some rice, flour, cloth, and herbs!

As for me, I have to visit the wife of the general who stabilizes the north and Mrs. Ma, whom I haven’t seen in a long time!”

Lin Suisui whispered her arrangements to the Prefectural Governor’s wife, “After we gather enough money, we’ll talk about the subsequent arrangements like building a porridge shed.”

Hearing Lin Suisui’s words, the Prefectural Governor’s wife, who was originally worried, finally felt relieved. She quickly stood up. Then, she praised Lin Suisui for her kindness and left to raise the money.

After sending off the county governor’s wife, Lin Suisui got up and went to the front courtyard to look for Lu Ze.

The Ma family had been dealt with, and Madam Ma Deng was still detained in the Ma family’s home. If she wanted to ask Ma Deng for the dirty money they had agreed on previously, she would have to ask Lu Ze for help.

After hearing Lin Suisui’s intentions, Lu Ze put down the dossier in his hand and suggested accompanying Lin Suisui.

Lin Suisui didn’t want to trouble Lu Ze to accompany her on this trip, but seeing that Lu Ze insisted, she didn’t refuse. She went back and changed her clothes before boarding the carriage with Lu Ze. Under the protection of a group of guards, they went to the Ma family’s home first.

Before Pei Qian punished the Ma family, the Ma family was considered the richest family in Cloud Mountain City.

However, now that the entire Ma family had been brought into the Imperial City’s government office by Pei Qian and were all undergoing torture inside, only the dilapidated and bleak mansion was left.

After Su Le explained the purpose of his visit to the guard at the door and showed his token, the guard didn’t dare to delay any longer. He quickly instructed someone to open the door of the Ma family’s residence and welcome Lin Suisui’s carriage into the residence.

On the day the Ma family was captured, Ma Xiuzhu was also sent back by Lu Ze.

Now, the mother and son were surrounded by the guards from the Imperial City’s government who were stationed in the Ma family’s residence. They were only given food every day. In the beginning, Ma Deng’s indignant curses could still be heard, but now…

If not for the fact that the servants who went in every day to deliver food could still see that the disheveled Ma Deng was still alive, the guards outside would really think that the people inside had committed suicide.

“If you hand over the dirty money you have, I can still let you and your son go to the West Mountain Nunnery!”

As Lin Suisui stood at the entrance of the courtyard, she covered her mouth and nose without entering. It wasn’t that she was afraid, but it was really difficult to find a place to stand foot in this small courtyard.

Across the courtyard, she looked at Ma Deng, who was sitting on the railing and looking at her. She calmly repeated the promise she had made to Ma Deng.

“Why can’t you be magnanimous to a woman like me who has nothing left?! I heard that you had an extremely good reputation in the refugee camp!”

Ma Deng looked up slightly, and her expression finally changed a little. She curled her lips into an ugly smile and pointed at the house behind her. “What’s the use of sending such a piece of trash back?!

You’ve already taken half of my lifeline away. Are you going to snatch my remaining support too?!”

“You should think about it carefully!” Lin Suisui didn’t want to argue with Ma Deng here. Before she left the courtyard, she looked at Ma Deng as she continued, “After you think it through, you can get the guards to help pass the message!

However, my husband has already investigated the amount of money you have! If you still want to bluff your way through at this moment, you’ll probably be stripped of your right to be detained in this courtyard as well!

After I send you to the Imperial City’s government office, there are hundreds of ways for me to make you tell the truth!”

After seeing Ma Deng, Lin Suisui and Lu Ze went to their next place.

With Pei Zhaoyue’s personality, she felt that it was already a huge pity that she didn’t get a share of the relief money, so it was impossible for her to get money from her!

Two rows of guards stood at the entrance of the general’s residence with knives in their hands. Originally, Lin Suisui thought that it would take some time to enter, but before she could say anything, Su Le had already gone forward and said something to the guards. She saw that the guards, who were originally fierce and vigilant, bowed to them respectfully, then quickly went forward and opened the main door of the general’s residence. Just like when they went to the Ma family’s residence previously, they rushed in without any scruples!
