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 393: Going to Have a Baby (Extra Update as a Reward for the Reader 'Deer Crying Softly')

Old Zhou had hardly reached the gate with his daughter when the door suddenly opened from the inside with a bang, startling both of them.

Zhou Erlang and Zhou Wulang rushed out and upon seeing their father, quickly said, "Dad, Silang's wife is about to give birth, I'm going to call the doctor and the midwife."

Old Zhou came to his senses and waved his hand urgently, "Go quickly, go quickly."

Manbao had already wriggled free from her dad's grip and ran inside, only to see the kitchen bustling with the fire blazing for cooking.

Manbao dashed to the small courtyard and saw the house lit with oil lamps, with Zhou Dalang and Zhou Sanlang taking the children over to the main courtyard. They were to sleep over there tonight and were not allowed to come back to the small courtyard.

Taking advantage of Zhou Dalang's inattention, Manbao slipped into Silang's room.
