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 pressed harder against her chest, "Look at you, you're all grown up and you still choke on tea..."


She caught her breath and slapped his hand away, "Stop touching me randomly!"


"You are my wife, if I don't touch you, who am I supposed to touch..."


She looked at him seriously, "Fourth Brother, I was serious about what I said earlier."


"What serious?" He became solemn too, "Not having children?"


"If you dare cheat, I'll castrate you first, then chop off your limbs!"


He smiled mischievously, pulling her delicate body back into his embrace, "Just that? I've never thought about cheating in my life, dear. Rest assured, you won't be able to castrate me or chop me."


He planted a kiss on her fair cheek, "Wife, does that mean you actually are willing to have children with me?"


He held her and wouldn't let go, "Dear, I can't figure out what you're really angry about."
