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

Xiao Yuchuan felt extremely awkward but still sat down with a forced demeanor.


As Xiao Qinghe and Xiao Yishan looked at the four people gathered around the table, they felt as though they were the true family. A sense of loss and melancholy simultaneously welled up in their hearts.


Tao Meijiao approached and greeted the Xiao couple, "I've seen Master Xiao, Lady Xiao."


"And you are?" Shen Yun truly did not recognize her.


"I am a friend of Su Qingyue, Tao Meijiao."


"So, you're Miss Tao. I've heard about you." Shen Yun explained, "I wanted to meet Chuan'er, so, I had some inquiries made in advance. Please forgive me, Miss Tao."


"It's no problem," Tao Meijiao quickly waved her hand.


"Would Miss Tao care to join us at the table?" Shen Yun was very enthusiastic.


"Could... Could I really?" Tao Meijiao was pleasantly surprised, disbelieving. To sit at the same table with the head of a first-class family and his wife was an honor of the highest degree.
