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."

Primus Pavilion was the best restaurant in their neighborhood, having been opened after it was named "Primus." Local rumors suggested that the founder wasn't the current proprietor but someone very influential.

Regardless, the restaurant was expansive and opulent, frequented by the affluent and seemingly cultured individuals.


After all, with the Six Academies nearby and such a splendid name, the patrons were mostly scholars and their family elders who came to dine and drink.


Manbao and his friends, dressed plainly—neither shabby nor luxurious—were immediately captivated by the calligraphy and paintings on two walls as they walked into Primus Pavilion.
