share time: 2025-11-27 00:34:38

Lin Xiaoman, an urban office worker reeling from workplace PUA and her boyfriend’s cheating, was hiding in her rental crying when a family of ancient “famine refugees” burst in—an honest farmer dad, a fiery cook mom, a stubborn embroiderer sister, and a 3-year-old cutie A Fu who clung to her skirt begging for food. To stay, the family used their ancient skills: Dad turned the balcony into a vegetable garden, Mom’s homemade meals saved Xiaoman from workplace embarrassment, and Sister’s embroidery made Xiaoman’s social media viral. Gu Chuan, a handsome neighbor designer, met Xiaoman while helping A Fu pick up a toy, and they fell in love as they guided the family through modern life. But just as life stabilized, A Fu tugged her hand: “Sister, we need to take the past you home”—turns out this family is her “parallel universe original family,” crossing the famine to heal her childhood regret of losing her little brother. A funny, heartwarming tale of “ancient family in modern times” that’ll make you want to hug A Fu tight!
