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.

251 Will they think that Fourth Brother is useless?

His expression froze when he finally reacted.

She chuckled and walked to the stove side, scooping a ladle of cold water into the pot, stirring the cold water with the porridge in the pot using a rice scoop. This way, the porridge would be thinner, and she could scoop out four bowls later.

She ladled another bowl of water, took a willow twig from the corner of the stove and handed it to him, "Here."

The willow twig was left over from yesterday. There was no time to pick one today, as the creditor had already come. The twigs were picked in a bunch, and a branch could be used for one teeth-cleaning session. It didn't matter if she picked fresh ones every two or three days.

He looked at her in confusion.

"It's for you to rinse your mouth with." She was puzzled, "Didn't you rinse your mouth before?" It seemed that she never saw the second brother and third brother pick willow twigs as toothbrushes for him.

His face flushed as he said, "Yes, I did."
