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.

They rented two vacant rooms from their neighbor, Li Yibao, to store the ferns. The two vacant rooms were thatched huts built next to the main house of the Li family. Li Yibao's parents used to live there when they were alive.

Villagers said that Li Yibao was unfilial since he didn't let his parents live in the main house, forcing the elderly couple to live in the thatched huts. When Li Yibao's parents passed away, the two thatched huts became vacant.

Since the huts were vacant, they were rented to Su Qingyue for twenty cents a month.

While Su Qingyue was purchasing ferns in large amounts, she also hired workers to process all the fresh ferns into dried ferns.

Before going to sleep at night, Xiao Yuchuan beckoned Su Qingyue, "Wife, please come here."

She walked over, "What's the matter?"

"Wife, look at my face..." He pitifully pointed at the place where he had been injured a few days ago when he fell in the rain, "Will there be a scar on my face?"
