The more cowardly a person is, the more wild they are; I've driven the villainous minister craz

The Yun siblings, one was born with congenital toxins, and the other was born with a heart condition.

This setting is very suitable for a tragic hero-turned-hero novel.

When Shen was pregnant with Yunshang, she was poisoned. The fetal poison remained in Yunshang's body and could not be removed. It had been there for so long that doctors in the village and the county were helpless to treat it.

However, for Elder Feng, it was a difficult problem, but one that he could cure.

After placing his hand on Yun Shang's pulse for a long time, Old Man Feng finally withdrew it and turned back to continue working on the medicinal herbs. "You were born with this poison. Although it is not fatal, it has penetrated deep into your lungs and internal organs over the years. It will probably take a long time to completely detoxify you."

Many precious medicinal herbs are still needed.

But buying medicine requires money.

The fact that a recipe for Bo Bo Chicken cost 400 taels of silver gave Yu Wan a great deal of confidence, and she now felt that making money was no problem.

Upon hearing Old Man Feng's words, he immediately replied, "Old Man Feng, just tell me what medicine you need. As long as it can cure Yun Shang, I'm willing to spend any amount of money!"

As she spoke, Yu Wan looked up at Yun Shang, and said with a hint of shyness, "I'll do anything as long as you can cure my husband."

“I am willing to go out and earn money to buy medicine for my husband.”

Old Feng paused in his pounding of medicine, glanced at Yun Shang, and said sourly, "You're a lucky guy to have married such a devoted wife."

Is she devoted to him?

Yun Shang stood to the side, calmly and indifferently watching the smiling Yu Wan, feeling as if something had gently pierced his heart.

Seeing Yu Wan's eager help, he felt increasingly strange.

Yu Wan always put on a show, being hypocritical and pretentious, just to impress his mother and sister.

In reality, they always make excuses without leaving a trace.

They would never do things with the same sincerity as they do now.

Why did she suddenly change so much? Was it a sudden enlightenment? Or... a completely different person?

Yu Wan was already able to distinguish between various medicinal herbs, and she was enjoying herself when she suddenly felt a dangerous gaze behind her!

Turning around, she suddenly met Yun Shang's dark eyes.

She was intimidated by Yun Shang's eyes.

Dark and deep, devoid of any emotion, it is unfathomable.

Feeling a chill run down her spine, Yu Wan avoided Yun Shang's gaze and said with a smile, "What's wrong, husband? Why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?"

Hastily!

Is the male lead, that cunning old fox, going to suspect something again?!

She didn't do anything!

Yun Shang looked at the smile on her face and found it extremely irritating.

A voice seemed to be reminding him that Yu Wan shouldn't be like this.

Yun Shang lowered his eyes and suddenly walked closer to Yu Wan.

Yu Wan's breath caught in her throat, but she dared not show any fear and stood there calmly.

“Your face…” Yun Shang raised his head, his fingertips gently touching Yu Wan’s cheek, wiping it lightly with his fingertips, “is covered in dust.”

Yu Wan's pupils contracted slightly, and her body tensed up instinctively.

Yun Shang, standing in front of him, suddenly curled his lips slightly, as if he were laughing, "How could you be so careless, getting dust all over your face."

Yu Wan: "..."

What's going on here?!

Her brain was about to shut down!

Didn't the male lead dislike her? Why would he say such tempting things while wiping her face?!

Does he even realize how much his stunning good looks have affected her?!

Yu Wan couldn't even manage a fake smile, and said stiffly, "I...I'll be careful later."

Slowly lowering his hand, Yun Shang gazed at Yu Wan, the smile fading from his lips.

He said, "I'll help you."

Yu Wan just wanted Yun Shang to get away from her as soon as possible, otherwise she really couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't be overcome by lust and pounce on him!

The two stood side by side, sorting through the medicinal herbs, with a distance between them, which finally calmed Yu Wan down.

She glanced at Yun Shang's expression discreetly, and seeing nothing amiss, she felt relieved.

Old Feng watched from the side, shaking his head and muttering to himself, "This young couple...their relationship is really good."

Yu Wan: "..."

You're really getting old; your eyesight is really bad.

Because of Yun Shang's repeated probing, Yu Wan became even more determined not to get too close to the male lead.

After dinner, she considered bringing up the topic to Madam Shen: she wanted to sleep in their room that night.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she put down her chopsticks, Madam Shen pulled her into the kitchen.

He smiled and took two things out of his pocket and put them into her arms.

She winked and whispered, "Yu Niang, this is all I can do for you. You'll have to do it all by yourself tonight."

Yu Wan was completely confused.

Madam Shen pointed to the hot water in the stove and said in an ambiguous tone, "This scented soap was specially bought from the county town by your mother. It smells like roses and is especially pleasant. If you use it to bathe tonight, it will definitely make Yunshang fall head over heels for you."

Yu Wan's confused expression froze.

She looked down at the things in her arms.

One is the rose-scented soap that Mr. Shen mentioned, and the other is—

A book of erotic illustrations.

Dear mother, thank you so much!

Yu Wan resisted with all her might, but Shen Shi didn't notice at all and didn't give her any room to refuse, leaving the kitchen to her directly.

Before leaving, she clung to the door frame, urging, "Yu Niang, hurry up and finish your bath and go back to your room. The night is short, don't waste time."

Yu Wan blushed with embarrassment.

These past few days she had roughly known that the Shen family wanted to match her with Yun Shang, but she never expected that the Shen family would go to this extent!

Bathwater, aphrodisiac incense, and erotic pictures—all in one go.

However, Shen's efforts were destined to be wasted.

Given the male lead's aloof and restrained nature, how could he possibly consummate the marriage with her?

After feeling embarrassed for a while, Yu Wan put the matter out of her mind.

Scented soap was considered a luxury item in this era, and she had never used it since she arrived. Adhering to the good habit of never wasting resources, Yu Wan took a comfortable bath with rose-scented soap.

next door.

Yun Shang sat at the table reading a book.

The dim candlelight was occasionally stirred by the wind, and the shadows cast on the wall swayed slightly.

Madam Shen approached carrying a ceramic bowl, tiptoed to the table, and said gently, "Yun Shang, don't rush to read, drink your medicine first."

Yun Shang put down the book and looked at Shen Shi. His usually cold and aloof expression softened a little. He quickly got up and took the ceramic cup from Shen Shi's hand.

She said softly, "I'll take the medicine myself in the kitchen. Why should I trouble Mother to bring it to me?"

Mrs. Shen looked at her son with satisfaction, "This is not hard work at all. It is my son who is working hard in his studies."

She glanced at the ceramic cup in Yun Shang's hand and urged, "The temperature is just right, drink the medicine while it's hot."

Yun Shang hesitated for a moment, but under Shen's earnest gaze, she still tilted her head back and finished drinking the medicine in the earthenware bowl.

The smile on Shen's face deepened.

She glanced at the back window, then said as if remembering something, "I discovered today that Yu Niang's little bed is infested with insects and mold. It's no longer suitable for sleeping in. You'll sleep with Yu Niang tonight."

"You can't bully her anymore."

When Yun Shang entered the room, she noticed that there was no bed. Now that Shen Shi mentioned it, she did not object.

Since we've already slept together once, it won't make a difference if we sleep together again.

His bed is big, so he can just use a blanket to separate them.

Mrs. Shen was very satisfied with his reaction and left with the ceramic cup.

A moment later, Yu Wan finished her shower and went inside.

She didn't glance at Yun Shang for long, heading straight to her small bed, and then—

The whole person was stunned.

She turned around blankly to look at Yun Shang, her delicate and lovely face filled with disbelief. "Yun Shang, where's my bed?"

Her bed is so big!
