Back to 1952: From the Start, All I Had Was a Bowl of Braised Pork

After transmigrating to 1952, Li Huowang and his sister were left orphaned, surrounded by spiteful neighbors. Everyone was waiting to laugh at their misfortune. But instead of seeing the siblings suffer, they caught the lethal aroma drifting out of their dilapidated house, so mouthwatering that the entire factory leadership couldn’t sit still. The neighbors went crazy: Where was he getting the meat? The relatives were stunned: When had that kid learned to cook like that? When the factory director knocked on his door late at night, everyone realized that nothing could stop this young man’s rise… How can a bowl of braised pork stir an entire era? The answer lies in the wisps of smoke rising from the stove.
