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 447: The Visit of the Yamen Runner

Mr. Zhuang chuckled and said, "It's not that I'm so impressive, but rather your parents are understanding and reasonable. When I went to your house, your mother had already sent over your silver ingot. However, you left without eating breakfast, and that's why you missed it."

Mr. Zhuang continued, "That is your third error, skipping breakfast over such a trivial matter. You hurt not only your own health but also your parents' hearts, yada yada…"

Mr. Zhuang, becoming enthusiastic, simply started to explain the Classic of Filial Piety to the three children, who all became very anxious.

Seeing that they really couldn't listen any longer, Mr. Zhuang finally waved his hand and said, "All right, go home."

The three children then carried their Small Book Boxes and rushed out together, with Bai Erlang being the oldest and running the fastest, making his way to the front and dashing towards his home across the bridge.
