The hearts of the couple were never truly together. To say they were husband and wife was almost an overstatement—they were more like strangers cohabiting.
James Black spent most of his time with the guard team, only returning home for one or two days after three to five months, or even half a year. Jane Sampson never inquired about James' whereabouts or caused him any trouble—she played the role of a virtuous wife to perfection, scoring 120 out of 100.
Frankly, James Black's lifestyle looked pretty much the same, married or not.

After all, Jane was so quiet and unobtrusive that she was almost completely invisible.
