Siheyuan: From Blacklisted Kitchen Hand to an Icon of the Era

Xiao Yi returns to 1955. In his previous life, his status as the child of a member of the Five Black Categories left him bullied by every beast in the courtyard, wasting his life away. This time, he returns in force with the memories of a medicinal cuisine chef and the Shennong Food Compendium System! He can infinitely level up by winning the favor of the goddesses from period dramas and accumulating points for putting the courtyard's beasts through the wringer, becoming the ruler of his era!

Frailty -> The strength of a dragon and an elephant

Kitchen novice -> Master chef of state banquets

Silly Zhu still wants to be the canteen boss? Xiao Yi flips his ladle and shatters that dream: "Go wash the vegetables. Don't get in my way while I make a special meal for the leaders!"

Qin Huairu gazes at him with love in her eyes: "Brother Xiao Yi, your cooking smells so good, and so do you... Give me something to eat, please! I'll do anything you ask..."

Chen Xueru, Xu Huizhen, Lou Xiao'e, Xu Banxia, An Jie, Tian Runye, Jiang Yafei, the six He sisters, and all the other goddesses from period dramas: "Brother Xiao's medicinal cuisine is worth a fortune. One taste just makes you crave more. Brother Xiao, are you free tonight? Your place? Mine? Or the Home Inn?"

The bigwigs: "What? That Mr. Xiao, who is said to be richer than a nation and adored by countless goddesses, is actually the little kitchen helper who used to get pushed around at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill?!"
