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 732: Kill with a Borrowed Knife II

Zhou Dalang and his brothers also lived in the small courtyard that Zhou Silang had recently rented. In the evening, the brothers gathered in a room to count silver, while Manbao and Zhou Lijun sat on the side, checking the accounts and calculating everyone's wages so that they could go home and distribute the money.

The brothers carefully stored all the silver ingots in carry pouches, and Zhou Dalang put the carry pouch in the middle of the bed. He decided to sleep with the silver that night.

Zhou Erlang and Zhou Silang discussed, "Big Brother and Third have visited all the nearby villages. We've basically reserved all the good wheat for seeds. After one more round, there won't be any left. If we want to buy more, we can only look to Old Master Bai."
