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 649: The Person Buying the House (Wishing everyone a happy Mid-Autumn Festival)

Since they planned to steal lotus pods, they all decided not to go to the Book Collection Tower that afternoon.

Bai Shan took the lotus pods to school, and during the noon recess, he shook the pods and went to the Book Collection Tower, giving them to Mr. Wu who sat in front reading.

Mr. Wu looked up from his book and squinted at him for a moment, saying, "It's you."

He reached out for the lotus pods, sniffed them, and said with a smile, "Quite fresh."

Glancing at Bai Shan's empty hands, he put the lotus pods aside and asked, "Delivering these now, you won't be coming to the Book Collection Tower after school?"

"I have things to do today and won't come, Mr. Wu. I will take my leave." He had come just to deliver a lotus pod, and naturally, he would leave after that.

Mr. Wu did not try to keep him and waved his hand allowing him to leave.

The attendant helping Mr. Wu could not resist his curiosity and asked, "Mr. Wu, why does Bai Shan keep bringing you food?"
