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

"Qingyue, then I'm heading back. Although our Tao Mansion is no match for the first-class families, if you run into trouble, just come to me. Whatever I can help with, I will." Tao Meijiao looked at her earnestly.


Su Qingyue knew that if there were really any trouble, the Tao Mansion would definitely not be able to stand up to the Xiao's first-class family. Going to her would be nothing but a drag, and she would not possibly seek help from the Tao Mansion. Yet, Meijiao's sincerity still stirred a touch of emotion in her heart. She nodded, "Mm."


Tao Meijiao, escorted by Maid Yinzhu, returned to the Tao Mansion.


As soon as they arrived at the Tao Mansion, Master Tao was informed by a servant that his daughter had come back. He went to the hall with a stern face, "Jiaor, do you remember the way home?"
