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 316: Farewell

When out, Grandma will surely write to Uncle Bai, and by then he can use the excuse of writing to Bai Er to include Manbao's letter in his.

Manbao, of course, knew this as well, and the two exchanged looks, both snickering.

As Ms. Liu and Ms. Zheng were passing by to check on the prepared carriage, they saw the two children holding hands and laughing face to face. Ms. Liu couldn't help but stop in her tracks.

Ms. Zheng also saw the two and sighed, "It's rare for Shanbao to have a friend. His leaving must be heartbreaking."

Ms. Liu gave her a sidelong glance and said, "It's just a month away, not that he's not coming back."

"Still, that's quite a long time. I'm already reluctant to part with him, not to mention they are just children."

Ms. Liu didn't know what to say to her daughter-in-law and squinted at the two children holding hands and parting with reluctance. She stood there for a while before moving on.
