[Transmigration + Farming + Food + Marriage First, Love Later + Sweet Romance]
Shen Sui, a modern master pastry chef, transmigrates. She wakes up as a bride bought to bring good fortune to a sick man in Qingniu Village.
It's hard to tell whether she's unusually resilient or the man is simply doomed, but he dies on the eve of their wedding. The world is always harsh to the living, so naturally Shen Sui is the unlucky woman with a supposedly cursed fate who brings death to her husband.
"Sui, don't blame me for being heartless! I paid good money for you, but now that my son is gone, I can't afford to keep you." Granny Zhang stands with her hands on her hips, looking ready to sell her off to the highest bidder.
"That's enough. Someone wants to buy this girl!" The village chief steps in, and the new, lame hunter, Xie Aniu, pays to take her in.
No one knows that this "paralyzed hunter," supposedly left with a broken leg after a hunting accident, is actually Xie Yan, the young general who once made the Hu invaders tremble at the border. After a treacherous minister framed him and had his whole family executed, he narrowly escaped death and hid in this remote backwater, thinking he would spend the rest of his life there. But after she once fed him a meal, Xie Yan decides to save her.
Everyone laughs at Xie Aniu for having the worst luck, paying a high price for an unlucky woman who brings death to her husbands. Only Xie Yan knows that this girl is a living bodhisattva sent to him by heaven.
Her pumpkin cakes are crisp on the outside and soft inside, and her steamed brown sugar rice cakes smell sweet enough to fill half the village...
She is brave and resilient, and always optimistic.
She is the only light in his dark life...
