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 248: Winter Wheat

As evening approached and the sun neared the high mountains on the horizon, the members of Old Zhou's family finally started returning home—some carrying water buckets, some with hoes over their shoulders, and others with hands caked in mud. It was only then that they learned Manbao had been self-studying medical skills and was already able to treat Zhou Dalang's illnesses today.

Of course, that was Junior Ms. Qian's statement.

Zhou Dalang repeatedly stressed, "Manbao has only spent two and a half days reading books, and she hasn't found anything."

Old Zhou conveniently ignored Zhou Dalang's words and cheerfully beckoned Manbao over, delightedly saying, "Good, good. Manbao, learn more. From now on, if anyone in the family falls ill, we'll rely on you to treat them."

Manbao nodded happily.

Not only Zhou Dalang but also the others felt a chill down their spines, especially Zhou Erlang, Zhou Sanlang, and Zhou Silang, who still had injuries on them and broke out in a cold sweat.
