Opening a Roadside Eatery During the Famine, Mother and Daughter Become the Richest

Shen Yunniang transmigrates into the body of a poor farm wife. Her husband is dead, her mother-in-law is harsh, and she is forced to split from the family with her five-year-old daughter, A Qiao, taking nothing but a dilapidated house and coarse rice. With the realm in chaos and famine everywhere, she resolves to flee the disaster and make her own way. Armed with nothing but an iron pot, she uses modern techniques to make rice cakes and noodle soup, setting up a roadside stall. Mother and daughter sleep rough and face one danger after another: refugees try to steal their food, while local thugs bully them. On her first day, she earns a hundred copper coins, enough to buy a pot and firewood, and business gradually takes off. From a makeshift food stall to putting down roots in Qingzhou, she is determined to teach her daughter to read and write while running both the kitchen and the family business herself. With food to spare and a place to call home, she will live this life for no one but herself, seeking only peace and stability.
