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 154: Plan (Additional chapter for reaching 120,000 recommendation votes on Yunqi)

After Manbao fell asleep, Ms. Qian furrowed her brow and looked at Old Zhou, "Are you serious about building seven rooms, or were you just pacifying Manbao?"

"Of course I'm serious. Would I lie to a child?" especially with something this important. Manbao is so smart; what if she picks up bad habits from that?

Old Zhou had his own considerations. He said, "Didn't you mention a few days ago that Four's debt was almost paid off?"

Ms. Qian softly responded, "Hmm," and said, "Not much left."

Nobody expected the ginger the children had casually planted to be so valuable.

The wasteland that Zhou Silang gradually converted wasn't that large, about six or seven fen in size, with almost half planted with yams and the rest with ginger.

The yield from that small patch of ginger was substantial. During this period, the family was selling at least forty catties of ginger each day, resulting in a steady income.
