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 538: People Scare People

Bai Shanbao was itching to move, "Can I still make it back in time to change clothes?"

Manbao asked, "Do you have black clothes?"

Bai Shanbao's shoulders drooped, "No."

Bai Erlang and Manbao naturally didn't have any either. They were all young men; who would dress them in such dark clothes?

The three of them looked at each other, then turned around in unison, peering through the gaps in the firewood at Daji, who remained motionless in the shadows.

Daji ignored them.

The three of them huddled and whispered among themselves. Daji's ears twitched, and he gently knocked on the woodpile. The three hiding inside immediately fell silent, inching forward to look anxiously through the gaps.

After a rustling sound, a white figure appeared in the alley. Because of the dim moonlight, they had no idea how it had appeared.

It was only when a faint white shape vaguely appeared in the alley that they realized the ghost had shown up.
