[Farming and food story] Two people transmigrate together, no System, no golden finger, no angst, no sisters turning against each other, warm and slow-paced.
“How many seconds should you blanch the tripe?”
“You know, seven up, eight down.”
Right then, the hot pot restaurant’s chandelier came crashing down.
One second the sisters had hot pot and milk tea in hand; the next, they were in a rundown room with a broken table and bed in a village.
Li Shenshen: “Why couldn’t I have transmigrated as a rich lady, a noble family’s legitimate daughter, or a president’s relative?”
Li Qianqian: “Have you ever won anything on a scratch-off ticket?”
Li Shenshen: “Fine, I accept it. But did I really have to transmigrate as a farm girl?”
Li Qianqian: “We’re lucky. At least you didn’t get sent to the end of the world.”
Li Shenshen: “...”
Fine. If the circumstances aren’t ideal, we’ll make them better ourselves.
Let’s make hot pot, dry pot, and spicy malatang so delicious they’ll die for it!
And we can’t let the handsome young gentlemen get away, either. We’ll pursue careers and romance together!
Li Qianqian will become the founding dynasty’s beautiful little chef.
Li Shenshen will become the founding dynasty’s divinely gifted young painter.
The sisters will join hands to build their fortunes and create a bright future!
