Street Stall with Mom

share time: 2026-01-23 00:31:53

Lin Xiaotang just got laid off when her rural mom Wang Xiufen suddenly showed up at her rental house with a snake-skin bag, insisting they run a street stall together to “restore the family’s former glory”—turns out Mom was the “Street Stall Queen” of their county back in the day. Unexpectedly, they bound a “Street Stall Cultivation System” on their first day: selling cinnabar bracelets can ward off evil, osmanthus cakes can boost luck, and even second-hand books can unlock cultivation skills? On one side is Mom’s “rustic marketing” (yelling through a megaphone, “My daughter’s a college grad selling here—please show some pity!”), on the other is the system’s “mystical tasks” (getting ten customers to say “This stall’s got something special”). Lin Xiaotang oscillates between social death and counterattack every day. Lu Shiyan, the cold and handsome guy selling coffee next door, always comes to “mooch” — saying “Your osmanthus cake has spiritual energy” one minute, helping her fend off city management the next. Is he just here for the food, or is he after the system? And why does the young man in Mom’s old photos—who used to run a stall with her—look exactly like Lu Shiyan?
