B. Are you so kind that you would wish this man and his sons good fortune even though he took your money and made your life miserable?

This is the best statement because it includes all the elements in the text. It appropriately asks whether or not he has the patience to wish the man and his sons well despite their wrong doings. The passage says that they "bow'd [him] to the grave/ And beggar'd [his] for ever". This means that they took his money and made his life miserable.
