[Ancient-era woman in the modern world + adorable little one + mystic divination + travel between two worlds + stockpiling supplies to support the family + everyone dotes on everyone + heartwarming and healing]
Gu Xiaoman is only five, and her family has already been stripped of everything!
Her father has been falsely accused of stealing disaster relief grain and sent to a quarry for hard labor. The whole family is crammed into a leaky shack, and her little brother can't even spare half a steamed bun to eat.
Desperate to find a way to save her family, Xiaoman grips three copper coins and casts a fortune. To her astonishment, she steps right into the modern world!
White rice is piled high, big steamed buns cost one yuan each, and lamps don't even need to be lit with a flame!
Xiaoman swallows. With all these wonderful things, she can keep her whole family warm and well fed!
But what can she do if she has no money?
The little girl gets an idea. She spreads out her fortune-telling cloth, sits up straight, and calls out, "Ask about your troubles or find lost things! Two hundred yuan per reading!"
An auntie wants to put down a deposit on a shop? Wait, the person with the key doesn't have the authority to make that decision!
A granny has lost a cherished old clothing pattern? Don't worry, just check the bag of clothes that hasn't been mailed yet!
As soon as the three coins land, the scams are exposed, the lost items are found, and business comes knocking!
Once she's earned some money, the little girl pushes a cart home loaded with supplies: rice, flour, eggs, meat, sewing supplies, paper, and pens. Everyone gets their share.
The family finally has enough to eat and a new place to live. Her mother takes up sewing again, her older brother learns a trade, and her older sister gets to go to school.
Xiaoman counts on her fingers, already planning to cast more fortunes, solve the old case, and bring her father home.
But first, her mother pulls her into her arms.
It turns out she isn't the only one determined to take care of her family. Her whole family is just as determined to spoil her until she's a little girl who dares to ask for affection.
