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 36: Punishment

```

Manbao's first day of school ended with a call for her parents.

Even Ms.Qian, who was in ill health, hurriedly rushed out of her room with Junior Ms.Qian's support to get to the school.

The Bai Family's response was also swift.

Old Master Bai hadn't had a year without being called to the school, knowing his son's notorious record there, and that if there was a fight, he was surely the one hitting others, so he wasn't in a rush.

But upon hearing Bai Shanbao was also involved in the fight, he couldn't sit still. Bai Shanbao was different from his son; he was a treasure.

Old Master Bai didn't dare delay and quickly informed the aunt and sister-in-law, and thus the Bai Family also arrived in a grand procession.

The two families met at the entrance to the school.

One side was decked out in fine silks, the other in plain cotton with patches, but the anxiety on their faces was the same.

In terms of numbers alone, the two sides were evenly matched.
