After the arranged marriage, she farms and survives under the tutelage of the villainous boss.

The mountains in the southwestern border region stretch endlessly, shrouded in a layer of white mist. Yongquan Village is nestled in a small valley among them, and from a distance, it appears to consist entirely of low earthen houses.

The village is sparsely populated, with about a hundred households spread across several mountains. Only about twenty households are original inhabitants, while the rest are exiled from wealthy areas.

The small mud-brick house at the end of the village, decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations and adorned with many auspicious characters, belongs to the original inhabitant, Jiang Laosan.

Tomorrow, the two daughters of Jiang Laosan's family will be married together. This is quite a novel event, and many people are waiting to attend the banquet and watch the excitement.

The night before the wedding, Jiang Zhiwan, the eldest daughter of Jiang Laosan, rushed into the main room, looking flustered, and said:

"Mother, I won't marry into the Xie family. I want to marry Xu Ping'an, the man my second sister asked me to marry!"

Zhao Guifen, a woman dressed in brown linen, pulled her daughter along and said incredulously:

"You must be crazy! Xie Shuheng is still a prince, and he's just been exiled and banished to this small town in the southwest. Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse! Not to mention he has some wealth, he'll have a rich life sooner or later!"

“But your second sister is going to marry Xu Ping’an, who is just a poor and weak farmer in our village. What’s so good about him? Not only is he poorer and less capable than our family, but his mother-in-law is also vicious and cruel. You can’t stand her!”

Sitting opposite her, Jiang Zhiwan said anxiously, "Mother, don't worry. Xu Ping'an may not seem promising now, but he can take the imperial examination in the future. Who knows, he might even become the top scholar in the future!"

……

The mud houses in the village had poor sound insulation, and Jiang Zhiyun woke up while listening to these words.

A splitting headache.

She remembered that she died after burning down the mansion and perishing together with her scumbag husband, Xu Ping'an, before she could close her eyes in peace.

Now I hear that Jiang Zhiwan plotted to marry that scumbag Xu Ping'an?

At first, she thought she was being a little mentally unstable. Then she raised her hand and looked at its fair skin, without any signs of hard work. It was clearly the hand of a young woman.

The surrounding area was decorated with the character for "happiness"...

Now, it should be a rebirth, a rebirth back to the day before getting married.

Tears welled up in her eyes. In her past life, she had worked tirelessly for Xu Ping'an her whole life, taking care of all the big and small matters at home, and even urging Xu Ping'an to study.

She had studied many books with Xu Ping'an, and she even wrote most of the policy essays better than Xu Ping'an.

Unfortunately, being a woman, and because she only wanted to support her husband at home, she was always constrained by that family under various pretexts.

She worked like a slave just so her husband could succeed.

He was severely depleted of energy, but he couldn't bear to see a doctor. His mother-in-law also said that he was healthy and didn't need to see a doctor.

She was busy with her business and didn't notice that on the day the top scholar rode his horse through the streets, he brought back a son and a daughter, as well as a beautiful mistress. Jiang Zhiyun was so angry that she vomited blood.

Jiang Zhiyun was unwilling to accept that she had become someone else's stepping stone all her life. She went to see a doctor and learned that she didn't have much time left and wouldn't live for more than half a month.

So she set fire to the Xu family estate, which she had built with her own hands, and burned it to the ground.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiyun rubbed her temples. She really didn't want to marry into the Xu family in this lifetime.

If Jiang Zhiwan were to marry him, she would be more than happy to do so!

Listening to the unrestrained conversation between the mother and daughter, Jiang Zhiyun was certain that her elder sister, Jiang Zhiwan, had also been reborn.

Memories of this older sister from my past life were quite distant, but now they flash through my mind like a revolving lantern.

In her previous life, Jiang Zhiwan married Xie Shuheng, an exiled prince. Just as her mother had predicted, the prince's current exile to the southwest was his biggest hurdle. Once he was released and exonerated, his path would be smooth sailing...
