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.

554 Third Brother has a really good appetite

She used a long stick to pierce the two bundles of grass, making a grass carrying pole.

Xiao Yishan took her grass carrying pole, "Yue'er, let me take it."

Su Qingyue followed him, "Second Brother, take it slower."

Her simple concern warmed his restless heart. He replied and walked down the mountain with her, one in front and the other behind.

When they returned to the Xiao Family home, Xiao Qinghe had already prepared dinner.

Dinner included the leftover pig's large intestine from the morning and the meat scraped from uncooked pig bones from the previous night. The meat was seasoned with extra salt, so it wouldn't spoil but might be a bit too salty.

These two dishes were already quite good for a poor household like the Xiao Family.

Xiao Qinghe's eyes brightened when he saw Su Qingyue enter the yard. As she entered the kitchen, he asked, "Wife... Qingyue, there were five fresh pig bones left from yesterday, salted and not boiled for soup. Do you want to take two for soup?"
