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 345 Blue Jade

Ms. Qian's good appetite continued until half a month later, as she had been eating more and better recently. Her gaunt cheeks and shoulders slowly plumped up, and her complexion became much rosier, making her look about ten years younger than before, almost comparable to Ms. Liu in appearance.

No, it wasn't right to say she looked ten years younger; she was actually supposed to look this way at her age. It was just that previously, she seemed old like a crone because of her poor health.

Perhaps it was because the effects of the medicine had worn off, or perhaps because her body had fully recovered, she didn't feel as easily hungry as before.

That night, she only ate a pancake and a bowl of wheat paste.

Not only Old Zhou, but Zhou Dalang and his brothers all quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Recently, the old mother had been eating enough for three people, which could starve the half-grown children to death, not to mention her enormous appetite.
