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

The two of them, one tending to the fire, the other chopping and frying vegetables, worked together to prepare dinner.


Having been confined in her room all afternoon, Li Rong'er had been stewing in frustration since Xiao Yishan had taken her back to her room and then went back to work in the yard. She waited and waited, but he didn't return to coax her, generating a whole afternoon of suffocation, and at the same time, she began to particularly resent the presence of Su Qingyue and Tao Meijiao.


As the sky darkened, she wondered whether to start making dinner or not.


Xiao Yishan was helping Xiao Yuchuan with work and had only agreed to provide lunch.


Rong'er then planned to make dinner just for Xiao Yishan and herself.


Upon entering the kitchen, Li Rong'er smelled the aroma of chicken stew cooking in the stove pot and a plate of fried fish, making her drool with desire. She didn't want to be mocked, so she endured the delicious smell and acted as if nothing were unusual.
