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 420: Pick and Choose

Eldest Uncle Qian looked up and told Qian Dalang to prepare something to eat for Zhou Dalang and his brothers, but Zhou Dalang quickly said, "Dad, we've just eaten and are not hungry yet."

Zhou ErLang nodded repeatedly and laughed, "Eldest Uncle, how about we go to sleep now? I reckon we'll have to get up at the fourth watch."

Eldest Uncle Qian thought about it and agreed, hurrying to clear a room for them to sleep in.

The Qian Family's housing was a lot more cramped than Old Zhou's, so Eldest Sister-in-law Qian and Second Aunt-in-law Qian took the kids to one room to sleep with them, while the four cousins squeezed in together elsewhere.

Fortunately, it was summertime. They closed the doors and windows, slapped away the mosquitoes, and could sleep directly on the floor.
