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 698: Poaching

Apart from taking a fifteen-minute break to wash their hands and eat lunch, the doctors virtually had no rest, tending to patients the whole time. Despite that, the line in front of the medical tent didn't seem to shrink; no sooner had they seen one patient than another would join the queue.

Manbao's pace was slower than Doctor Ji and the others, not only because of her experience but also because she particularly liked to administer acupuncture to patients.

If someone needed special attention, she would bring them into the medical tent, have them undress for the procedure, and if it was possible to only needle the arms and legs, especially just the wrists, she would do so once they agreed, and then have them wait to the side.

In fact, the women seeking treatment didn't have such high demands, and thus were willing to bare their arms since their clothes were already ragged.
