Zhao Ya, an unlucky chef from another world, died while experimenting with an innovative dish. During the journey to reincarnation, Heaven finally took pity on her and gave her a little extra luck. She was reborn as Zhao Ling'er of the Zhao family, and she did justice to her beautiful name: she was radiant and utterly peerless.
Zhao Ling'er had hoped to continue her career as a chef from her previous life, but her family was so poor they couldn't even gather enough ingredients. With no other choice, she started by farming and gradually improved their living conditions. To her surprise, her luck really had improved in this life, and rare ingredients seemed to fall into her hands with ease...
Along the way, she met Ji Huaijin, who had come all the way from the capital to weather a tribulation after receiving guidance from a master. They had known each other since childhood and could be called childhood sweethearts. Yet with neither the young man nor the young woman returning the other's feelings, they missed each other for many years. After weathering trial after trial, they finally recognized their feelings and fell in love, finding happiness together. He helped her take her food business across the land, and she helped him build a prosperous age of peace and plenty.
