[Period Setting + Rebirth + Golden Finger + System + Everyday Family Life + Heartwarming + No Romance]
They say people are reborn to make up for the regrets of their past.
Tang Yuan thinks that's true.
When she opens her eyes again, it's just before the Spring Festival of 1983.
Her parents are still alive, and her younger sister is still little.
Only she knows that on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, her parents will board a southbound train, never to return, and will be lost forever beneath the cold concrete and steel of the south.
From then on, she will have to hold together a home with only herself and her sister in it.
Later, when her sister falls ill, she takes all kinds of jobs to earn money, but still can't keep her sister by her side.
This time, Heaven has given her a second chance, and even sent her a [Delicious Eats Restaurant] System.
She will keep her parents by her side. As long as she's alive, her mom and dad can forget about doing anything dangerous.
She sneaks off to set up a stall at the market and earns more money than her parents ever dared dream of. Though her family is skeptical, they stop trying to dissuade her from making money.
After the New Year, Zhao Si comes to ask her parents to go south for work, but her father calmly turns him down.
From then on, they go from a roadside stall to a big restaurant, and from a family business to one employing the whole village.
This time, she will keep her parents close, raise her little sister to be chubby and healthy, and never let anyone break up their family again.
The story is alright, but the idea of free ingredients and only needing points afterwards is excessive. It's possible to make the ingredients sold by the system high-quality or one-tenth cheaper than buying them in real life, but it can't be completely free. It would be better to just find some restaurants or factories to sell ingredients directly; even selling them individually would be easier than cooking them yourself.
It's a good watch; the female lead's path to wealth feels very realistic.
