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

"The Lady is truly meticulous in her thoughts."


Shen Yun's gaze fell on the young and delicate face of the maid Shuang'er, "Shuang'er, has the Master promised you anything?"


Shuang'er, frightened, knelt on the ground, "No, no."


"The Master has praised you highly in front of me," Shen Yun said, her face revealing no pleasure or anger.


"I... I have just been following the Lady's orders to serve the Master well. I would never dare to have improper thoughts."


"That's good. You are but a servant, a lowly life. Even if the Master were to marry you as a concubine, I could take your life at any moment. Any unworthy thoughts should be cast aside early. If you follow me well, I will not treat you unfairly."


In the Tao Mansion hall, a servant hurriedly came to report, "Master, young Lady, it's terrible, young Master Qin has barged in!"


Master Tao and Tao Meijiao were having lunch when they heard this. Master Tao put down his chopsticks, "Let him in."
