The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

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.

"Qingyue, here, you drink." Xiao Qinghe smiled lightly, "I'm not thirsty."

"I'll go fetch water so that everyone has something to drink." Su Qingyue turned around to leave, but Xiao Qinghe grabbed her hand. "Don't go..."

His wife's hand was so small and warm.

Holding her hand, his heart pounded nonstop.

Su Qingyue stiffened for a moment and looked back at him.

Facing his wife's clear eyes, Xiao Qinghe felt a hint of nervousness and reflexively let go of her hand.

"Yue'er, it's so late. I can't help but worry if you go out," said Xiao Yishan with a deep and concerned voice. "Please don't go out."

Xiao Yuchuan added, "Wife, don't go. It's okay to be thirsty for a while. My heart would be worried if you went out to fetch water late at night."

Su Qingyue looked at their concerned faces and drank a quarter of the water in the bowl. "Then let's each have a little. It's better than not having any."

She handed the bowl to second brother.

Xiao Yishan refused, "I don't need it..."
