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

Even Su Qingyue was about to drool, poor soul, after all, since she had arrived in ancient times, she hadn't tasted a single bite of cake. Without a second thought, she cut a piece of cake in the pot and wolfed it down.


Three sounds of swallowing saliva followed.


Xiao Yuchuan also reached out to cut a piece of cake, "Wife, give me a piece to taste..."


Two chefs' eyes were brimming with green light from envy.


"This is just too delicious!" Su Qingyue exclaimed as she ate. Just a simple cake, but something not found in ancient times.


Seeing his wife ignoring him, Xiao Yuchuan also cut himself a piece and took a taste, "Sweet and delicious, fragrant smell hitting the nose, so soft it melts in your mouth... truly a heavenly delicacy..."


"Shopkeeper lady..." Yuan Dong couldn't resist any longer, "could you share a bit with me?"


Su Qingyue cut another piece for herself, and with two small pieces remaining, she gestured towards the two men.
