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.

At night, Tao Meijiao tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. She got up and walked into the yard, casting a glance at Xiao Yishan's room.


Knowing she shouldn't, yet she still walked toward Yi Garden.


Even though she had been dishonored, she had made up her mind not to have anything to do with Xiao Qinghe any longer, but still… she couldn't let go.


At the very least, she wanted to know his stance.


She had thought by this hour, Xiao Qinghe would have gone to sleep.


Entering Yi Garden, she saw Xiao Qinghe sitting alone in his wheelchair under the tree.
