The Lucky Farmgirl

The Fourth Brother had squandered his wealth through gambling, leaving their mother in a critical state. To make matters worse, the creditors even asked them to sell Manbao to settle the debts! In the village, whispers spread that the golden days of the Zhou Family's cherished Manbao were over. Their elderly mother clung to Manbao's hand, tears streaming down her face. However, Manbao tightly grasped a system in her hand, a tool that would lead her and her brothers and sisters-in-law to reclaim their fortunes. They ventured into agriculture, cultivating land, growing medicinal herbs, and establishing shops, steadily improving their lives. As their situation improved, concerns shifted to Manbao's marital prospects by the sister-in-laws. "Mr. Zhuang's grandson is an excellent match – educated and well-spoken. He is just perfect for you." "No! You should consider Mr. Qian's youngest son, who is handsome and well-mannered. You can count on him never to defy you." Suppressing a smile, Manbao responded, "My heart is already set. I choose Bai Shanbao, my childhood friend whom I've playfully scolded since we were young."

Chapter 242: One Pot

Old Zhou made his way home, clutching his purse. When he reached his doorstep, he waved goodbye to the village head and, after closing the door, promptly pulled out the purse.

When Old Master Bai had stuffed the purse into his hand, he had felt something was off. Upon opening and pouring it out, a ten-tael silver ingot fell into his palm.

Zhou Silang, who was cleaning up the yard, saw it and his mouth fell open wide. His first thought was, "Dad, did you pick up the Bai family's money bag on the road?"

In the entirety of Qili Village, who else but the Bai family could produce a ten-tael silver ingot?

Old Zhou shot him a glance, "Do you think your dad is that sort of person? This is compensation from the Bai family to ours."

Zhou Silang's eyes nearly popped out as he asked, "Why?"

Old Zhou ignored him and headed straight to the main house. Zhou Silang hurriedly dropped what he was holding and followed.
