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 92: Jiang Gui (Additional update at 35000 recommended votes from Yun Qi)

Is there ginger for sale at the big market?

There wasn't any at the street stalls, but seeing them aimlessly wandering like headless flies, Zhou Erlang grabbed Zhou Wulang's collar from behind, spun him half a circle, and pointed to old Doctor's house's entrance, "That's where you can buy ginger."

Ginger is used to expel cold and remove the off-taste, so during the New Year, if people plan to stew mutton, many would buy chunks of ginger from the pharmacy or the doctor's house.

Wulang was old enough to understand better.

Zhou Wulang looked towards the old Doctor's door with a somewhat uneasy premonition and led Manbao and Liulang there.

The old Doctor had already opened his door, sitting in his rattan chair dozing on and off, and squinted his eyes when he saw two youths and a child standing in front of him. He scrutinized Zhou Wulang and Zhou Liulang, finding them somewhat familiar but could not quite remember their names, so he turned to Manbao.

Hmm, that's a familiar face.
