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."

Ms.Zheng pointed at her nose and laughed, "Isn't New Year supposed to be a happy occasion?"


Bai Shan said, "Mother wasn't this happy during New Year in previous years."


Ms.Zheng picked up a piece of pastry and stuffed it into his mouth, "Stop blabbering, hurry and eat yours."


Bai Shan always felt something was off about his mother, but couldn't pinpoint what, so he silently ate the pastry.


Ms.Zheng ignored her son and instead held Manbao's small white hand, looking at her with a warm smile, as genial as could be.


Not just Bai Shan, even Manbao felt something was off. Once she finally left, Manbao whispered to Bai Shan, "Do you think Auntie Zheng needs a favor from me?"


"I just observed carefully, her complexion is rosy, her breathing steady, and walks firmly, not sick."
