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 685: All Under Control (Extra chapter as a reward for the book friend "Zaizai!!")

Ji Hao struggled for his life under the hands of four physicians, and County Magistrate Tang wasn't just standing by, watching without taking action. He didn't know where he found a girl from the Spring Breeze Pavilion, who had already bought her way out of servitude, and had her locked up in the prison as well.

Moreover, with the testimony of those who were present at the time, such as Wei Ting and Jiao Yong, combined with the statements of Manbao and others, a complete chain of evidence could be pieced together.

It proved that the initial dispute was indeed instigated by Ying Wenhai.

Manbao, Bai Shan, and Bai Erlang stood in a corner of the main hall; because the court session was so long, the three of them got tired of standing and even secretly sat down on the floor, right underneath a window near the main hall, and went unnoticed.

Although uncovering the truth was the duty of County Magistrate Tang, Manbao felt something was amiss as she listened to him conduct the trial.
