Su Xiaoxiao, a modern-day cake maker, transmigrates into the body of Su Xiaomei, a poor village girl in ancient times whose father has just died. She also discovers she has incredible strength. With her extraordinary might, Su Xiaomei deals with greedy relatives trying to seize the family property and malicious neighbors. Then she bundles up her belongings, takes her mother, and sets out to earn money and stockpile food. She becomes a hairpin maker and trains a whole host of apprentices, setting the fashion trends of the Great Zhao. She makes all kinds of food, and her fondant cakes astonish the entire dynasty, while treats from Su’s Confectionery take the country by storm. She even happens to snare herself a prince for a husband. Just as Su Xiaomei has money, food, and power and is ready to enjoy life as a contented slacker, someone tell her: why is the prince’s household so poor?
