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

"Oh! So you've finally shown your true colors," Su Qingyue coldly snorted. "Since, in your heart, I'm just a rural village woman, how could you, the dignified Lady of the Xiao Family, deign to feign civility with me for so long? You must have your eye on my medical skills. Or perhaps..."


She brushed the loose strands of hair in front of her chest and said playfully, "you also find my appearance attractive? Of course, the Lady of the Xiao Family could never have such an improper affection for women. Are you trying to use me to eliminate some rivals? Let me guess, does the Xiao Family have such a big appetite? So big that you wish to swallow Pear Blossom Villa with my help?"


Upon hearing this, Shen Yun's face drained of color.


"Looking at your disgusting old granny face, I'm not surprised at all," Su Qingyue sighed. "Such a big appetite, but do you have the stomach for it, or are you not afraid of overstuffing yourself to death by accident?"
