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 female cook asked in confusion, "How come the food hasn't been touched? Didn't it suit Master's palate?"


"Master has gone out on a medical visit and hasn't had the chance to eat yet. I have to follow and take care of Master," Liu Sheng said before he, too, left.


The cook pondered that Miss Tao hadn't eaten a bowl of rice yet, and she had promised her earlier to make her a bowl of chicken soup. Looking at the stove pot, the portions for the young Lady and the son-in-law had already been served.


It would be a waste to throw away the untouched chicken soup meant for Master; second Master hadn't had dinner either, and there might not be enough to eat. So, she poured the chicken soup, which Tao Meijiao had 'spiked', back into the stove pot and added some firewood to heat it.


The wood has already turned into a boat.
