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.

"Exactly." Xiao Yuchuan glanced disdainfully at Jin Xun, "You really think my wife is keen to cooperate with you? I wish you'd roll as far away as possible."


Seeing Xiao Yuchuan, Jin Xun's anger rose, "You..."


"You what you!" Xiao Yuchuan scoffed and gestured dismissively, "If you're unhappy, there's the door."


Jin Xun was well aware of his fondness for Su Qingyue; Xiao Yuchuan felt uneasy inside. Fanning himself with a folding fan, he said, "Su Qingyue, I agree to your terms."


Su Qingyue was straightforward, "Then let's draft a contract."


"Contract?" Jin Xun had never heard such a novel term.


Su Qingyue explained, "It means the same as a pact."


"Oh. I'll go back and prepare, see how to write it..."


"There's no need to trouble yourself. I will draft the contract, and Boss Jin can sign after ensuring there are no issues, how about that?"


Su Qingyue instructed Maid Yinzhu to fetch the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.
