[Transmigrate into a book + Period + contrasting characters + trade System]

Shen Yue opens her eyes and discovers she’s transmigrated into a book, and into the body of an old woman at that! An old woman would be bad enough, but she’s also a real piece of work! There’s the hard-working eldest son who gets no respect, the second son who likes to take advantage of others but knows where to draw the line, the smooth-talking yet loyal third son, and the fourth child, a daughter who wants to marry a rich man and become a wealthy wife, but only so she can improve life for her family.

Well, most people who transmigrate into a book end up among a bunch of awful characters, but in her case, she’s the only one in the family who’s awful. When Shen Yue realizes that her children are destined to meet miserable ends as foils to the reborn heroine, she knows she can’t just sit back and do nothing.

Just as she’s racking her brains for a solution, her golden finger finally arrives. So what if the heroine is reborn and blessed with good fortune? What’s there to fear? Just watch as Shen Yue leads her family out of the plot and onto the path to prosperity!
