   The warmth and comfort of everyday life are what truly soothe the soul ❤️. The male protagonist is a chef (formerly an art student) with a strong sense of patriotism and a desire for a peaceful and stable life as an ordinary citizen. The writing is superb, never dull or tedious; each story point is deeply moving, growing more meaningful with each reading. No romantic pairing, just a slice-of-life story about running a shop. Although the rating isn't yet 9, it's truly excellent. Trust me, this book will definitely reach 9 eventually.

    I recommend a food-themed novel. The female protagonist was a food blogger in her past life, and she transmigrates to ancient times, starting from a street stall and gradually opening her own shop. There are no special abilities; she just honestly cooks her way up step by step. There are no infuriating relatives or convoluted family power struggles. The descriptions of food in this book are incredibly tempting. Sometimes when I listen to the audiobook, I can picture the food with my eyes closed. I recommend reading it while eating, but those on a diet should avoid it at night, as it might tempt you to order takeout.

    I never read novels set in the Republican era! But this one is amazing! It's a female ensemble piece where the protagonist transmigrates to a poor family in the Republican era. Her parents are dead, leaving only two sisters who are about to be eaten alive. She discovers she has a spatial ability and avoids entanglement with her awful relatives. She goes to Shanghai, makes desserts, and becomes an instant sensation, thriving in the city. The story depicts many women struggling with life's hardships, and the protagonist's arrival subtly changes them. (It's not just a simple food novel; career development and plot lines are interwoven.)

    Everything went smoothly. From selling wild vegetables to working at a small food stall, then a restaurant, and finally several branches in the capital, there were no strange customers, no jealous competitors causing trouble, and not even any instances of others copying the trade and buying the same food. Every character's relationships were harmonious, without a hint of unhappiness; it was incredibly peaceful. This harmony almost felt artificial, though there were no melodramatic elements. It all depends on your perspective. If you can enjoy it, it's heartwarming; if not, it might seem a bit bland. I found it alright, otherwise I wouldn't have finished it. However, I have a suggestion: I don't particularly recommend watching most of the episodes outside of mealtimes, especially late at night, because there are so many food descriptions that you might get hungry.
