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."

County Magistrate Tang finished writing the letter and sent it out. Then he started to look up files with Jiang Qi in the archive room. "We need to find an opportunity to visit Qili Village."


After thinking for a while, Jiang Qi said, "Four days from now will be the Dragon Raising Head festival. Next to Qili Village, Dali Village has a Taoist temple. Each year on the second day of the second lunar month, they hold a temple fair. Everyone goes up the mountain to pay respects to Taishang Laojun and Earth Deity. It will be very lively then. If you do not wish to draw attention, that would be a good time to go."


Thus, he didn't even need to say it, for Jiang Qi understood that he wanted to keep things low-key and investigate quietly. County Magistrate Tang looked at him with a meaningful smile, nodded, and said, "That's a good idea. We'll go on the second day of the second month then."
