Bamboo Rain

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."

The Lucky Farmgirl

Manbao glanced at Zhou Lijun and asked, "Erya, do you still remember things from when I was little?"


Since Zhou Lijun insisted, Manbao seldom called her Erya anymore. Hearing it now, Zhou Lijun sensed that her niece wasn't in a good mood. She sat down next to her and said, "I remember some things, but I've forgotten others. What's wrong?"


"Do you remember anything from when I was just born?"


Erya tried hard to recall in her mind but could not remember anything and shook her head.


She hadn't remembered things as early as her niece did. Now, she could only recall bits and pieces from when she was about five or six years old, and even those memories were fragmented and mostly forgotten.


Manbao's shoulders slumped as she said, "Never mind, I'm a bit tired."


Zhou Lijun looked puzzled but still got up and said, "Then you should lie down, niece. I'll go help in the kitchen and will call you when it's time to eat."
