Don't Mess with My Dad. His Son Is a Six-Year-Old Prodigy

Transmigrated into the body of a six-year-old farm boy, Gu Zi'an has one ultimate dream: eat his fill, wait to die, lie flat, and give up on everything.

But from the start, he's in hell mode: his grandparents favor the others so blatantly it's practically coming out of their armpits, while his uncle's family are bloodsuckers who want to squeeze his family dry to fill their bottomless pit.

Gu Zi'an is furious: “If you won't let me lie flat in peace, then none of you are going to live!”

And so, the most “troublesome” family in Xiahe Village is born:

His father is the village's local layabout, the best at throwing tantrums and playing dirty: “You want to bully my son? Have you asked my fists?”

His mother is the fiercest woman for miles around, undefeated in every shouting match: “Touch even a thread of my family's and I'll dig up your ancestors' graves!”

And their fair, chubby six-year-old “precious grandson” hides behind his parents, smiling as he hands out knives and digs deep pits for people to fall into.

Dealing with awful relatives? Split the family! They have to split! Don't leave them a single coin!

Too poor to afford food? Invent things! Start a business! Lead the whole village to prosperity!

The scholar-farmer-artisan-merchant hierarchy is rigid? Take the imperial exams! Become a powerful minister! Trample everyone who looked down on me beneath my feet!

Ten years later, Gu Zi'an stands in the throne hall, looking at his parents, now both ennobled and fabulously wealthy, and sighs helplessly:

“We agreed to give up together. How did I end up working myself into becoming the Grand Chancellor of Great Wei?”

(This book is all about the whole family joining forces to stir up trouble, while every awful relative ends up on their knees!)
