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 722: Business Wisdom

Zhou Erlang opened his own bundle, took out a slightly smaller cloth bag, and opened it for him to see.

Inside were two bundles of well-tied copper coins and three ingots of silver, each weighing five taels.

Zhou Erlang said, "This is what Dad and Mom asked me to bring. Is it enough?"

Zhou Silang shook his head, "At the very least we need double that. The rent isn't much, but the deposit is high."

Zhou Erlang frowned and then looked towards Manbao.

Manbao, grinning proudly, said, "See how awesome I am? I have it!"

Zhou Erlang then tapped her little head and said with a laugh, "Yeah, you're the most awesome. Lend the money to the family first, and when your Fourth Brother gets the money from the County Magistrate Tang, he'll pay you back."

Zhou Silang then said, "She might as well pay herself back, Second Brother. You don't know how powerful she is now. Even the contract we signed with County Magistrate Tang was her doing."
