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 438: Everyone Gets a Share

Old Zhou paused, sighed, and then said, "In the future, when your mother and I get old, we won't be able to manage the household for you, so we're thinking, while we're still alive and there's some money at home, why not distribute it now? Let each of you learn to manage the household, so when your mother and I are gone, you siblings won't be lost."

Zhou Dalang and the others were deeply touched, tears almost streaming down their faces. Speaking on behalf of his siblings, Zhou Dalang said, "Dad, you're still young, you won't get old."

"Get out of here, I'm already this old, and you still think I can plow the field for you?" Old Zhou said, "I know better whether I'm old or not."

The brothers: …We didn't ask you to plow, and now we have oxen at home.

Old Zhou faltered for a moment, took a while to recover his emotions, and then said, "Even though I'm giving you the money, you're not allowed to spend it recklessly."
