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 533: Surprise

Mr. Zhuang was mainly looking for collections of writings from recent years and had no interest in the bamboo scrolls at all.

But the content of books that were written or reproduced on bamboo scrolls were unlikely to be very amusing.

Hence, after searching for a long time, Bai Erlang only picked out two volumes and said while holding the bamboo scrolls, "I've decided, for the next few months, I just need to read these two books."

Bai Shanbao and Manbao both looked at him with contempt.

Manbao searched to the left while Bai Shanbao went right.

Bai Shanbao selected several volumes of bamboo scrolls, so an attendant brought over a basket for him to carry them.

Manbao squatted in the corner for a long time without moving, so Bai Shanbao walked over with his basket and asked, "What are you looking at?"
