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 624: Snatching Disciples

The young man kneeling on the ground repeated the whole incident with tearful eyes and a runny nose, while Shopkeeper Zheng and Doctor Ji sitting to the side looked quite embarrassed.

However embarrassing it was, they still had to sit quietly.

Manbao slowly widened her eyes.

In fact, it was Shopkeeper Zheng who wanted to know where Manbao lived and what kind of family she had...

He was trying to gather more information about her, but who would have thought that such a clever person, who often engaged in this kind of snooping, would be led right to the doorstep of the County Governmental Office by a young girl?

Two people, both over fifty years old and with skins nearly as thick as city walls, bowed their heads slightly under Manbao's scrutinizing gaze, looking somewhat ashamed.
