Su Huaijun is the son of a small landlord from Qingyuan Village. He is smart, hard-working and has a bright future - the only problem is that he doesn't eat fat.
In order to take the imperial examination, he went to the academy in the town.
After eating a bowl of crispy meat and fish fillet porridge, Su Huaijun was stunned for three seconds. It wasn't the fish that surprised me – it was the girl in the apron behind the stove.
Lu Qingyi, the daughter of a retired imperial chef, can make a grass carp in eighteen ways with one hand, and can also mess up Su Huaijun's heart.
From then on, there was one more fixed stop on his road to the imperial examination: first he went to the academy, then to the restaurant. Go and endorse first, then eat the fish. Test your talent first, then marry your wife.
From the son of a small landowner in Qingyuan Village to the independent magistrate; from a small restaurant in the town to the world-famous crispy pork belly - on this road, both food and love are indispensable.
There's just one thing - Su Huaijun still can't eat fat in this life.
