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 463: Fighting

The Zhao family hesitated momentarily but still cleared a path for them.

Old Zhou then led his family huddle through the gate and glanced at the bowls and utensils that had already been put away in the courtyard. Satisfied, he nodded and turned to Zhou Dalang, "Go find some brooms, and make sure you find a lot."

Zhou Dalang responded and went off to look for brooms.

The Zhao family followed in, but there were too many of them, and not everyone entered. Primarily, Zhao First and Zhang Second led a few severely injured teenagers and children inside.

They came in aggressively, demanding an explanation from Old Zhou.

Old Zhou calmly pinched his tobacco and cut them off, "Alright, what's the big deal? Isn't it normal for kids to fight and play? Fighting can bring brothers closer."

These had been the words his uncle told his parents when he, as a younger man, had been beaten up by the two Zhao brothers; Old Zhou had remembered them all his life.
