Southern Wind

The Xiao family, known as the poorest amongst the mountaineers had just spent all their savings as dowry for a daughter-in-law, who was disfigured, dark, skinny, and mute. Mocked as the ugliest bride within miles, she eventually had enough of a life in poverty and escaped, only to fall in the hands of rogues who murdered her. 

When she opened her eyes again, her soul was now that of a killer's, and her disfigurement was healed while her unhealthily tanned skin was now fair as day.... And she could also talk! As she became the most beautiful bride. Villagers kept their distance from the Xiao family, claiming that they were jinxes. But despite her poverty, the bride was fortunate to have a loyal mountaineer husband who spoiled her to bits. Hence, the bride guided her husband to riches, buying farms and tending to them diligently, while starting a family to gain riches through blood and sweat.

The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

He honestly confessed, "I came in not long after you fell asleep."


She frowned, "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me?"


"I saw you were cold..." he said with concern, "I was afraid you would catch a chill, so I carefully crawled in through the window. After that, I really didn't disturb you. See, you slept quite soundly, didn't you?"


"Did Qinghe tell you not to come into the room?"


"Yes." He looked like a child who had done something wrong, "Actually, I was home as soon as you turned off the light and went into the room. Qinghe said you ordered not to disturb you. But... I couldn't wait for more than an hour, not knowing what you were doing in the room, I thought it wouldn't be a big deal..."


She sternly said, "Xiao Yuchuan, you almost killed me last night." It wasn't about vomiting a few mouthfuls of blood, if things had gone wrong, she wouldn't have been able to cure her deafness, and she might have gone blind.
