[A picky young master with an eating disorder × a money-loving little chef]
[Food and farming + sweet romance and building wealth + two strong leads who dote on each other + family bonds]
Wei Yuanyuan transmigrates and becomes a scrawny twelve-year-old girl in a small ancient village, whose father has died.
Looking at their thatched hut, bare of all possessions, her sister, thin as a bamboo pole, and her mother, whose hands are worn raw from washing clothes, she quietly takes out some bamboo-tube rice.
While everyone else transmigrates to battle scheming relatives, she transmigrates to battle poverty-stricken customers:
Her deposit system for bamboo-tube rice gets the whole village clamoring to become repeat customers. Bundling mint tea with meals drives the rival roadside vendors crazy, and the aroma of fish grilled on a stone slab gets the village head's wife ordering a meal for her future daughter-in-law.
Then one day, she “picks up” a sickly beauty with an extremely fussy palate.
Yu Zexi, dressed in fine clothes and jade ornaments, sits down on her drafty stool and pushes away the bowl with a cold expression. “Terrible.”
Yet when he turns away, he licks the bowl clean and even sneaks off with her jar of pickled bamboo shoots.
Wei Yuanyuan: Is even having an eating disorder a competition these days?
Later...
She sets up a stall, and he lurks by the stove to steal cooking tips.
She opens a restaurant, and he books the whole place, eating his way through her stockpile.
She heads to the capital, and he pulls down his family's silk shop overnight to turn it into the biggest couples'... ahem, flagship restaurant kitchen in the whole capital.
A little scene:
One day, Wei Yuanyuan checks the books and discovers that a mysterious VIP customer has been subscribing to “healing porridge for the sick” by the year.
She storms over to the Yu residence, only to find someone wrapped in sable fur, feigning weakness. “I can't eat unless Boss Wei feeds me herself.”
She smirks and flips back the covers, shaking out three pounds of pine-nut candy crumbs. “You have an eating disorder, but you're sneaking snacks?”
He catches her hand, still dusted with sugar. “If it's made by my wife, even arsenic would taste sweet.”
It's very interesting, very detailed, and the heroine is a good character, very hard-working and smart. When I first saw the hero, I felt that he was a kind of arrogant person who cherishes words like gold. Later, he turned into a gentle character, which felt a bit disconnected. Later, I automatically thought that the hero may have fallen in love with the heroine, so he changed his attitude. There was a small problem that the hero would always add "..." When he spoke, so that I always felt that the hero was stuttering. At first, I may have thought it was a pause, but later I found that it was included in almost every paragraph. It was strange.
It's beautiful 😳 and heartwarming, the plot is also interesting, not boring, and the description of the food is also very good. I'm so greedy when I look at it. It's not easy for the heroine to get to where she is now, thanks to the help of the hero. Recommended
It's quite interesting, the storyline is very warm, and the heroine is a growth type.
I really enjoyed reading it. There are some delicious food descriptions in it.
Very nice, hope to keep this style
