Mom! Stop Causing Trouble, Our Family’s Really About to Get Rich!

There are no heartbreaking twists, just joke after joke. This is a laugh-out-loud story that turns the usual tropes on their head. No complicated power plays or tearjerker romance, just a mother and son making money and sharing plenty of fun moments. It's lighthearted and comforting, and you'll be hooked the more you read.

Lin Xiaoman transmigrates into the body of a poor boy in ancient times. In his past life, he watched his family miss one opportunity after another because his mother, Wang Cuihua, was “too willing to give in.” In the end, they were so poor they had nothing, and the whole family froze and starved to death, full of regret.

Reborn on the day his mother accidentally came into her first bit of money, he has only one thought: stop her from causing trouble, seize every opportunity, make money safely and steadily, and protect the whole family.

But he never imagined that his mother was a natural “reverse lucky charm”: the more she kept a low profile, the richer they got; the more she turned things down, the more money came their way.

And somehow, every time his mother “causes trouble by refusing,” things work out in their favor. The general store she turned down gets dug up for buried silver. When she refuses a business deal, the other party comes knocking and triples the profit. Even the coarse grain she casually gives away earns them a generous reward from a benefactor.

Lin Xiaoman goes from jumping up and down in a panic to gradually lying flat, watching his mother carry the whole family with her “reverse tactics” as they rise from poor country folk to a wealthy household famous far and wide.
