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.

"Right, rain in pear blossoms. My wife, you're amazing, you can even speak idioms." He laughed with his teeth showing but not his eyes, "Husband won't cry anymore, when men cry, it's like cat's pee. No matter how painful it is, I'll hold back my tears. Last time, I thought my wife couldn't speak idioms..."


She had only needled his pain points just now because it was necessary for acupuncture. This time, she deliberately inserted the needle into his pain point, "To wake you up."


"Hiss...Ouch!" He nearly shed tears from the pain, "Wife, I just wanted to chat with you... look how serious you are..."


"If you keep talking to me, I might miss the needle and turn you into a useless person."
