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 456: Funeral Arrangement (Part 4)

Matting was laid on both sides of the coffin, and at this time, all the Zhou siblings were present. Manbao glanced left and right, wanting to sit beside her eldest sister, but was pulled back by Zhou Dalang, who whispered, "Just sit here with Eldest, and remember to return the bows when guests come to pay tribute. Do you know how to return the bows?"

Manbao hesitated and nodded.

Although the Zhou Family had never held a funeral before, other families in the village had, and Manbao had accompanied them before; she knew that as a mourning child on both sides, one was expected to bow in return.

The sky had just begun to brighten when visitors carrying funeral offerings started to arrive. To everyone's surprise, the first to come were the Qian Family, followed by some other villagers.
