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 368: Gift

She had prepared all the items in boxes. What she prepared for Zhuang Dalang's three sons were three identical bamboo boxes. When Zhuang Dalang's daughter-in-law received them, she felt they were somewhat heavy and didn't know what was inside.

The gift for Zhuang Dalang was a set of brushes purchased by Manbao using her own savings at the bookshop, and for Zhuang Dalang's daughter-in-law, it was a flower that Manbao had come across by chance in the mall.

Keke said they were artificial flowers, used for decorating rooms when placed in vases. The craftsmanship was average, but Manbao found them very pretty, even prettier than real ones, and since they were not expensive, she bought a large bunch.

There was no other option, a bunch was just a bunch, containing eleven stems. She didn't understand why not ten but figured, more is better, right?
