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 23 Agricultural Trade Market

Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang felt the carrying baskets on their backs were especially heavy.

Zhou Erlang was more clever and immediately took a small bamboo basket out of Wulang's carrying basket, gritted his teeth, filled it with five eggs, and said, "Young man, it's been a long time since we last visited the county city, and we honestly didn't know the rules for entering the city had changed. We farmers don't have any cash; we only came to the city to make some because our elderly at home need medicine. We hope you can be accommodating."

The guard had never seen such a small bamboo basket before and looked at it curiously. When he saw the eggs inside, he glanced around, took the basket, and said, "Alright, I'll cover your entry fee."

After saying this, he took a coin from his pocket, threw it into the plate, and gestured for them to enter.
