[Historical Romance] [Food] [Transmigrate into a Book] [Humble Origins] [Imperial Examinations] [Powerful Minister] [Farming] [Contract Marriage] [Winning Back His Wife] [Family Darling]
Modern food blogger Su Wan transmigrates into a book, becoming the vicious first wife of Xie Yanzhi, a future cold-blooded powerful minister. She is a terrible woman who causes trouble every day, takes things from her husband's family to support her parasitic birth family, and eventually dies a miserable death on the street!
Looking at the thatched hut with nothing in it and her new husband, whose face is as cold as ice, Su Wan decides to get the whole family firmly on her side first, then run off once she has saved enough silver.
Born with the luck of a koi and cooking skills at the highest level, she has pheasants crashing into trees up in the mountains and fat fish jumping into her basket down by the river. She sells food and opens restaurants, making a roaring success of it. Along the way, she turns her timid elder sister-in-law into a top-notch bookkeeper, raises her unruly younger brother-in-law into a young general, and spoils her parents-in-law and younger sister-in-law until they become the envy of the whole village!
With the heroine of the original story about to appear, Su Wan takes her vast fortune and presents a divorce agreement, ready to leave with a flourish.
But the future powerful minister, usually so aloof and restrained, grabs her by the waist, his eyes bloodshot.
"Have you taken a fancy to some other man out there? Wife, I'm much better than they are. If you don't believe me, try me..."
After trying him, Su Wan wants to leave even more, and would love to pack up her cooking pot and run away in the middle of the night.
Xie Yanzhi: "Fine, we can divorce, but you have to take me with you."
Her parents-in-law, younger brother-in-law, elder sister-in-law, and younger sister-in-law: "And us!"
The big black dog in the house: "Woof, woof, woof!"
Su Wan is stunned. Why does getting divorced mean taking the whole family along?
