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 235: Interrogation

There was a vacant courtyard, originally intended for visiting guests, but now a lamp was lit inside.

Daji unlocked the door for Ms. Liu and whispered, "Those two have woken up, and in accordance with your orders, I have imprisoned them separately."

Ms. Liu nodded, glanced inside the room from outside the window without entering, and then turned to visit the one who had remained fully conscious throughout.

His hands and feet were bound, tied with a special technique that made it virtually impossible to struggle free.

Daji brought Ms. Liu a chair, and after receiving her signal, he removed the cloth gagging the captive's mouth before kicking him and threatening, "Behave yourself, or you'll regret it."

Seated in her chair, Ms. Liu asked, "Who sent you?"

He didn't respond.

Ms. Liu didn't wait too long before continuing to look at him and ask, "Did you come for my Bai Family, or were you after someone else?"

He still didn't respond.
