Synopsis

The comic adaptation of the same name, The Young Lord Got Tempted by Food Again Today, is now available.

On the very first day Duanmu Ying transmigrated into the body of a minor official's daughter, her half-sister shoved her into a corner and cracked her head against the wall.

The good news: She brought the skills of an outstanding New Oriental culinary school graduate with her.

The bad news: This backwater has no chili peppers, no wok, and even soy sauce is a rare luxury.

But who is Duanmu Ying? A champion with a knife, a genius at controlling heat, and the woman who could toss a wok better than anyone in the kitchens of Tao's Restaurant.

Grow vegetables? Sure. Cook? A professional. Raise a picky young lord? Easy.

Murong Heng, heir to the Marquis of Zhenbei, is the hardest man to please in the capital.

The day she found him injured and pulled from the water, he still put on airs: "There's no need to trouble yourself."

Three days later: "What's for dinner today?"

Ten days later: "Could you make that braised pork one more time?"

A month later, Helian Zhan came to hurry him back to the capital to report for duty.

He said, "I don't think my internal injuries have fully healed yet."

Duanmu Ying kept her head down, growing vegetables and cooking her meals.

Her chive pockets were crisp outside and tender within; her Yangchun noodles had a clear broth rich with flavor; when her braised pork came out of the pot, its aroma could travel a mile.

Murong Heng's daily routine was: wait for a meal, eat, and wonder what would be served next.

When her close friend Wenren Fu dropped by and saw the scene, she couldn't stop laughing:

"Is he recovering from an injury? He's trying to get you to take care of him for the rest of his life."

Duanmu Ying: ???

Murong Heng: ...

Later, he really did refuse to leave.

Not for any other reason: just for the food, and the person who made it.

In a nutshell: A New Oriental-trained chef and the capital's pickiest young lord grow vegetables, cook, and happen to fall in love.
