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 138: Dishonesty (Recommended by Yunqi with 95,000 votes)

Zhou SiLang threatened Zhou WuLang, "If Mom doesn't mention it, you aren't allowed to bring it up, or else watch out, I'll beat you up."

Zhou WuLang snorted and headed straight home to find Manbao after he got back. He wouldn't tell Mom, but he could tell Manbao.

In the yard, Manbao was teaching everyone to read. By now, Datou and the others had already recognized many characters and could even do some simple arithmetic.

Manbao felt that Datou and the others seemed a bit smarter than before, and even smarter than the other kids in the village. Keke was right; reading and writing really could make people wiser.

Manbao was very pleased and called out to Fifth Brother as he saw him, "Fifth Brother, come and learn to read quickly. Datou even recognizes more characters than you now."

Zhou WuLang had a headache and hesitated whether to turn around and run. He hated studying and detested reading!
