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.

1075, brother is asking for second brother's help.

He paused for a moment, "This woman is very scheming and unsuitable to be a wife. I might as well keep her by my side for now."

"Does Second Brother not plan to marry her?"

"I had intended to marry her in the past, but now I do not have the slightest desire to do so," Xiao Yishan's resolute face filled with irritation, "If it had not been for taking her pure and clean, I, Xiao Yishan, even in my lowest moments, am not a man to seduce and abandon. I would have sold her a long time ago."

"Then what does Second Brother intend to do with her?"

"Keep her by my side for now," Xiao Yishan rubbed his temple with some headache, "If that doesn't work, I might take her in as a concubine."

Li Rong'er stood by the fence outside the courtyard, hearing the words spoken by Xiao Yishan in the yard. Her face turned pale and she trembled with rage. This despicable man actually only wanted to make her a concubine, after she signed the deed of sale just to gain his trust.
