Siheyuan: From Banquet Cook to State Banquet Chef

[System] [Reborn] [Revenge] [Slow Burn]

Subtitle: In the Siheyuan, My Second Uncle Is a Senior Officer

I respect my readers. The conflicts will grow more intense as the story progresses.

In his previous life, his parents died, leaving him surrounded by wolves in the courtyard. The Jia family seized his three rooms, forcing him to leave his home and drift overseas.

By the time he returned successful and accomplished, all his enemies were long dead. With nowhere to vent his bitter hatred, he spent the rest of his life consumed by regret.

This time, he has returned to 1955, bringing a Chef God System and a personal storage space with him.

His father's body is barely cold when Yi Zhonghai throws another "Hongmen Banquet," trying to force him to give the house to the Jia family.

Jia Zhangshi throws a tantrum, Qin Huairu plays the victim, and Silly Zhu tries to throw his weight around

Li Gan sneers and slams his cleaver onto the table:

"It's my house, and I make the decisions. Got a problem? Come and try me."

This time, he won't give in or back down.

Everything they owed him in his previous life, he'll collect with interest, one person at a time!

As the wheels of the era turn, Li Gan goes from a home cook to the head of the steel mill cafeteria, then to a guardian in a special period. Every step he takes keeps pace with the times.

When the famine of 1959 sweeps the land, he trades a feast of state-banquet quality for enough grain to change the country's fate, quietly sending it to the barren wilderness of the Great Northwest...

There's no particularly intense hostility early on. The protagonist isn't a pushover, but he won't mindlessly go after those animals either,
