One-sentence summary: After transmigrating as a poor widow, she gets nothing but seasonings, rice, and flour from her System. So she'll win over the ancient world with her cooking!
Chased into a corner by loan sharks, Qian Siyu wakes up to find herself a young widow in Qianjia Village, with two children to care for. Her dilapidated house leaks when it rains, her rice jar is nearly empty, and she has a hungry infant in her arms and a frail, timid child at her side. This start is even more miserable than being chased for debt in her previous life.
Just as she despairs, a mechanical voice suddenly rings in her mind: "Ding! The 'Keep the Family Fed' System has been successfully bound. Long-term task issued: One copper coin converts to 10 points. Redeemable items: Kitchen Seasoning Set x1, Health Point x1, Rice and Flour Set x1."
Faced with a System this bare-bones, Qian Siyu doesn't know whether to laugh or cry. But she soon discovers that although the System only offers ordinary farm produce, these goods are rare treasures in an ancient countryside where supplies are scarce. A bag of fine white flour can be traded for three jin of coarse grain, and a packet of refined salt is worth half a basket of copper coins.
She starts by setting up a stall selling wonton soup and noodles, then creates all kinds of new pastries, and finally opens her first restaurant, Little Yu's Eatery.
The hunter next door, who always seems to pass by by chance, is looking at her more and more strangely...
See how Qian Siyu works hard to build a fortune and leads her two children toward a better life.
