[Transmigrate into a book + period setting + farming + lucky charm + space System + cooking + making money + babies + winning back his wife + a villain who means well but makes things worse]
Lin Wan, a top-tier star chef in the modern world, transmigrates into a period novel as a doomed educated youth. The moment she opens her eyes, she’s facing deportation to a poor mountain village.
Fortunately, she gets bound to the Brocade Chef System, which comes with a one-cubic-meter storage space and a lucky-charm constitution. She digs up wild vegetables and finds pheasant eggs, scoops up fish while drawing water, and even discovers cured meat buried underground while cooking over the fire.
The trouble is, people’s well-meaning interference always ruins her good fortune.
Lin Wan angrily brandishes her spatula. “Nobody’s stopping me from making money!”
She grows out-of-season vegetables in her space and sells food at the market, putting her cooking skills to work.
She goes from a little cook in a woodshed to a restaurant tycoon, and picks up a mysterious educated youth with the aura of a domineering CEO along the way.
Shen Yu: “Marry me, and you can have all the brown sugar from the supply cooperative and all the fabric coupons from the county seat.”
Lin Wan: “Let’s get this straight: I cook, you do the dishes, and I manage the money.”
He guarded her for his entire life in their previous life. Now he’s carefully maneuvering at every step, all so he can keep her by his side.
They also raise a little one who inherited her lucky-charm constitution. On the child’s first birthday, he grabs the supply cooperative director’s leg during the traditional grab test, and from then on the family never runs out of grain or fabric coupons.
Wang Guixiang: “Xiao Lin, I’ll send this boy to the secretary to be his grandson. Just imagine how impressive that’d be!”
Lin Wan/Shen Yu: “...No, thank you.”
With the System in hand and luck on her side, she cooks up a prosperous life with her scheming husband and adorable baby by her side.
Who could resist a lucky little chef whose cooking smells amazing and who can help you make a fortune?
