Xu Chuncao lost her mother at the age of six. When her stepmother entered the house, she kicked Xu Chuncao into a leaky firewood shed. Three scars were burned on her with a poker. Her two marriages went wrong one after another. She married into the wealthy Zhou family, but was killed by her uncle Zhou Yao. The ancestor coveted the herbs left behind by her mother. She was humiliated on her wedding night. In the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month, she was accused of seducing the master's family. She took off her cotton-padded jacket and went barefoot and was kicked out of the house. The whole town reviled her as the star of the family who defeated her father and husband.
The bitter grass that grows in the mud has never been kindly treated by fate. Only Lu Chengan, a lame scholar at the bridge, silently handed over textbooks and warm chestnuts, recorded every income and expenditure of her stall, and stood up to protect her when she was plotted and rumored. Relying on her mother's deep-seated braised food skills, Xu Chuncao started from a 70-cent stall and survived the difficulties, frame-ups and opposition from her peers to maintain a pot of traditional soup.
She personally dismantled the enemy's industry, founded the "Chuncao Anji" braised food brand, won the provincial gold medal, and grew from an orphan girl despised by everyone to a leading factory director in the industry. After half a life of ups and downs, the hardships are gone, the grievances of the world are boiled away in a pot of boiling stew, and the sincerity that never leaves is guarded by a long lamp. In the midst of suffering, a grassroots woman creates her own hot fireworks in the world.
