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 482: The Iron Pot I Gave You

Old Zhou returned home in high spirits and saw that Zhou ErLang and the others were still sorting out the things they had bought. He watched them with great enthusiasm for a while, then asked Zhou ErLang, "Did all the money for this come from Manbao?"

Zhou ErLang nodded.

Old Zhou was overjoyed, feeling a sense of satisfaction at having spent a portion of his daughter's money. He grinned so widely his eyes were nearly squinted shut and was about to head into the kitchen.

"Dad—" Manbao came running out of the house, her eyes sparkling brightly as she looked at him, "I bought you a gift."

Old Zhou's eyes lit up, "What gift?"

"Wait till after dinner, then I'll tell you."

Old Zhou, although itching with curiosity, agreed, but couldn't help probing, "You've got to give me a hint at least, what kind of thing is it?"

"It's related to food."

Could it be the big chunk of meat now lying in the kitchen?
