The Wen Gu Zhi Xin grocery store in the old town of Yuzhou hides Su Wan's childhood and her grandmother's lifelong memories. In order to keep this concern, 23-year-old Su Wan quit her white-collar job in Changsha and came to this strange city alone. She took up the old shop with a low business and managed it alone amidst the trivial fireworks.
An encounter in Qiuyang brought the cold and noble Lu Zhiyan into her life. He is the owner of the vacant western-style building opposite the shop, a lonely boy who was tenderly cared for by his grandmother when he was a child, and an heir to a wealthy family whom she never thought they would cross paths with. Borrowing hot water late at night, a bowl of hot soup on a rainy day, and a group photo from twenty years ago found while sorting out old things, two lonely hearts slowly came closer in the smoke and smoke of the old city. The fateful fate had been foreshadowed many years ago.
When the gangsters harassed her, he stood up to protect her behind him; when his life experience was revealed, he held her hand tightly and made an unchanging promise; the urging of the wealthy families in the capital, the marriage arranged by his grandfather, and the vast distance between them all became obstacles between them. But Lu Zhiyan's heart has never wavered. He is willing to fight against the family's rules for her and preserve the gentleness of the old city for her.
The sweet fragrance of the sweet-scented osmanthus cakes in the old alley lingers, and the taste of toffee melts into my heart. A love that started with fireworks and ended with deep affection is just the right amount of sweetness during my time in Yuzhou.
