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

Thinking this way, I did feel much calmer.

Xu Pingan wasn't in a hurry; his immediate priority was to go back and ask Jiang Zhiwan.

After finishing in a hurry, I asked my mother questions as I walked.

Did you say something to her?

“No.” Xu’s mother nodded very seriously. “I am your mother, you should know that I am the most reasonable person.”

“How could she bully others? Jiang Zhiwan just doesn’t know her own limitations and only knows how to make you feel sorry for her. My son! This is not how you treat your wife.”

Xu Pingan didn't say much.

My mother just lacks perspective.

She knows nothing, clearly a typical rural woman, simply someone who only knows how to be jealous and envious. She has no other abilities besides this.

Anyway, she wasn't interested in anyone else.

However, Xu's mother felt a lot of helplessness and bitterness towards Jiang Zhiwan.

“Mother, you should try to argue with her less in the future. We are all family. If we argue every day, I won’t have time to deal with it.”

"When I'm not home, she takes care of you. If you're just a little nicer to her and coax her, she'll take care of you, right?"

Mrs. Xu thought it made sense and nodded: "...That's right."

"Then why can't you come back often? Isn't one of the seven days a day off?"

"Why don't you come back? You even told me not to tell Jiang Zhiwan about this day off, and even told me to lie to Jiang Zhiwan that you should use your day off to study."

“Mother! Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t ask. I have my own things to do. The family needs a wife and children to take care of. Although it’s a girl, she is still my child. That’s an indisputable fact.”

"So it's best for Jiang Zhiwan to stay home and take care of the children. She also needs to take care of you. I'm out there looking for other opportunities. I find the imperial examinations quite interesting now, so I'll participate."

"However, I think other things are more interesting."

The main reason is that he's taken a liking to that woman... This junior sister is really something. She's the most knowledgeable woman I've met in all these years, and she's kind, naive, and incredibly easy to fool.

Once you've successfully deceived him, then you can reveal the fact that he's married.

Now, whenever Xu Ping'an meets someone, he always refers to himself as someone who is unmarried and still searching for someone he truly loves.

So none of the people in the academy knew that he had a wife, and Xu Ping'an was even more handsome than the average person.

At this point, everyone felt that it would be quite nice if he and his junior sister developed a relationship.

Others who were able to get into the academy did so through connections in their families, but Xu Ping'an did get in by taking some opportunistic and tricky steps.

Everyone was rich and didn't care about their clothes or the things that Xu Ping'an never had. Many of them even dreamed of the housekeeper's daughter in Bianjing.

Everyone was ambitious and had no time to spare for the daughter of a mere academy.

The daughter of the academy's dean is naturally the best resource Xu Ping'an has access to, so he will definitely accept it.

I think it's pretty good.

Of course, if these words were spoken to his mother, that foolish woman, she certainly wouldn't understand a single word, so Xu Ping'an didn't insist on it at all.

Take a few deep breaths.

"Mother."

"You wait outside, I'll go in and coax Wan Niang, so don't make a sound."

"Why?" she asked anxiously. "You are the child I carried for ten months and gave birth to. I have always kept you in my heart. How could this happen all of a sudden? What's so good about Jiang Zhiwan?"

She burst into tears as she said these words.

I don't know what's wrong with so many mothers-in-law. Most of the time, when they argue with their daughters-in-law, it's because they want to compete with their daughters-in-law.

Let's see who holds a more important place in our son's heart by then.

In reality, it's not important at all...

Ultimately, these issues all became sources of conflict and arguments within the family.

Anyway, Xu Ping'an was a little annoyed: "Mother, if you're doing this for my own good, can't you be a little more accommodating? Do you think you're rich enough to get me a new wife?"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Xu's mother dared not speak.

The main problem was that she really didn't have any money. Although she looked down on Jiang Zhiwan, there weren't many women like Jiang Zhiwan who would give herself to her.

Not to mention how few there are, there's only one Jiang Zhiwan, so there's simply no way to talk to her.

Now we can only let it be.

You can't just divorce your wife and become a single man, only to be ridiculed by others.

He had already gone inside when he said these words.

Looking at Wan Niang lying on the bed.

Xu Ping'an's expression changed from disgust to joy.

Then he walked over and gently rubbed her temples.

"My wife, is something wrong? You look so tired."

Xu Ping'an is a very perceptive person. If Jiang Zhiwan is angry, he will usually speak to her in a kind and gentle manner.

He could easily grasp all of her attitudes and even predict what Jiang Zhiwan would do.

Seeing him return, Jiang Zhiwan was pleasantly surprised, but then panicked: "How...My lord, why are you back?"

"I was worried about you." Xu Pingan sighed. "You're all I feel in my heart. I even had a dream that something bad happened to you. When I got home, I was sure I didn't look well."

"Mom, tell me what's wrong."

Upon hearing that her husband was always by her side taking care of her, Jiang Zhiwan burst into tears and cried uncontrollably.

"My lord... how could there be such a good person as you in the antibacterial field?"

"That's true, that's true. I don't know, I don't know what it means for two people who like each other to be in sync. Maybe we are like that now." Xu Ping'an comforted her while saying sweet words.

Jiang Zhiwan felt dizzy.

I haven't heard people say "my body shape has changed" since I got married and had children.

I feel like I'm dreaming.

My lord hasn't been this kind to me in a long time. Has his conscience finally awakened today? Or has he always been kind to me, but I haven't noticed because I'm too caught up in my own emotions?

She began to feel guilty, thinking she deserved to die for not being more understanding of her husband and for being jealous all day long.

"Xu Pingan, I just miss you."

She didn't talk about her affair with Jiang Zhiyun; she planned to keep those things buried deep inside her for the rest of her life.

Jiang Zhiwan said, "My lord, I just hope you will become the top scholar in the imperial examination. How are you feeling about your studies? Have you noticed any changes recently?"

……

Xu Ping'an felt a little nervous. Could it be that she had discovered his affair with his junior sister and was deliberately testing him?

But he still refused to admit it: "What do you mean by that, my wife? At the academy, I naturally followed the teacher's steps one by one."

"I'm confident, don't worry."
