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

Speaking up to here, he paused for a moment and continued, "Although Pear Blossom Villa had a significant presence back then, it had not yet established an estate. After the Estate was established, all the servants were newly hired, so no one knew that Fei'er was not my biological son. Since Fei'er was considered my son, the servants naturally referred to Fei'er's mother, Ruan Yingyu, as the Estate Owner's wife. I grappled with this issue since Ruan Yingyu was my sister-in-law; it didn't seem appropriate for the servants to think of her as my wife. However, I couldn't clarify the situation without risking the exposure that Fei'er wasn't my own son. Moreover, acknowledging Fei'er as my son was also to shield him from my sworn elder brother's enemies, lest they find Fei'er and continue to harass him. Thus, the entire martial world knew I had a wife, but what they didn't know was when I married or who she was; they only knew I had a wife and a child."
