On the day she was reborn and sold into the mountains, Lin Wan swallowed her blood and tears and set her sights on the lifeblood of the village - the flowing water mat. From the inconspicuous dishwashing lady at the stove to the "smart wife" in charge of the banquet, she turns every dish into a chess piece. Sweet soup can bring back the old love of the clan leader, medicinal food can be exchanged for precious information from outside the mountains, and a bowl of rice cake can pry the guard's defenses away. In this isolated mountain village where food is used to divide power and banquets are used to judge right and wrong, she seems to be chewing every bite of humiliation meekly, but in fact she has quietly tasted the taste of power under the table. When she served the last dish of "Five Flavors of Life" at the ancestor worship banquet, the former diners finally became a chess piece in the game. This time, she wanted to eat up this cannibalistic feast one bite at a time.
