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

So I explained, "The windows are open for ventilation. The house is too damp, and he has many external injuries. If he keeps them covered, the wounds might fester."

At that moment, a cheerful voice followed:

“The young lady is right. If we keep covering the wound, it will only get worse. Fortunately, we opened the window in time. Judging from the young master’s complexion, it’s starting to look better. The situation isn’t too bad.”

The doctor rushed in carrying a box, speaking as he prepared to take the pulse.

Zhang felt guilty and foolish; if Yunniang hadn't reminded her, she didn't know what would have happened...

The doctor saw that his body had been treated; not only was it disinfected with alcohol, but some herbal medicine was also used.

Looking at Jiang Zhiyun, he said with approval in his eyes, "This young lady is quite quick-witted."

“Your place isn’t close to town. Many people who work in Shikanchang are dragged out and die! Although he is seriously injured, he can barely be saved.”

"I'll need to stay home and recuperate for about a month."

Then he lifted the wounds on Xie Shuheng's legs and abdomen to show Jiang Zhiyun, and sighed, "These are all knife wounds, and they went in very deep. Fortunately, none of them are vital organs, which is why this young master's life was saved."

"Come see me every seven days to change your dressing. Remember to come see me tomorrow to get your medicine."

Jiang Zhiyun nodded and listened to him talk about the dietary restrictions during this period and how to bandage the wound, and then saw him off.

The old man waited at the door to ensure the person was safely returned.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Zhiyun heard Zhang Shi talking to Xie Shuheng as she entered the room:

"Shuheng, I know you don't like me arranging a marriage for you, and you're not satisfied with this wife either."

“Yunniang isn’t very educated, so she wasn’t a good match for you before. But now that she’s just arrived, she’s already able to take care of the household and cooks well. I feel like I have a pillar of support now that she’s here.”

"Hmm." He nodded indifferently, as if he had no objection to his wife, but she was clearly his wife, how could he not have any objection?

“I don’t expect you and Yunniang to be able to sleep together right now. But I think we should live our lives well together. Yunniang is a good person, and we can’t treat her badly. During this time of recuperation, you should spend more time together and cultivate your feelings for each other, how about that?”

Xie Shuheng remained silent, but did not explicitly refuse.

Then Zhang continued, "I know you're thinking about Gu Xixi, the eldest daughter of the Minister's family. She was your childhood sweetheart and grew up with you. But now our family has suffered a misfortune. Your father is dead, and only the three of us are left to eke out a living."

"It's been impossible between you and her for a long time."

Xie Shuheng finally spoke, his face full of helplessness: "I have no romantic feelings for her."

"Mother, don't overthink it."

Zhang didn't care about any of that, just assuming that her son was too afraid to say the word "I love you" after his misfortune.

Xie Shuheng simply didn't want to get married. Besides, he carried a deep-seated blood feud and was never one to live a peaceful life.

He was not a good husband for any woman.

……

Hearing these words, Jiang Zhiyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Xie Shuheng has a childhood sweetheart who doesn't want to get married, which is exactly the same goal as hers.

This marriage is temporary now, and neither of them expects any emotional response from the other, which makes things much easier.

As roommates sharing a room, we can get along quite well.

This way, there's no need to worry about the awkward situation of sleeping in the same room after the injury heals.
