Su Langying runs a restaurant on Linshui Street in Huaicheng, entertaining guests in the front hall and planting flowers in the backyard. From the age of sixteen, she would make a wish on longevity noodles nestled with two soft-boiled eggs every birthday: that her Su Ji Restaurant would remain standing, and that she would find a husband willing to accompany her and Su Ji Baiyuncanggu for the rest of their lives.
From the age of twenty, she decided to live a life of contentment and happiness. She only hoped that her Su Ji could stand and carry forward, and work hard to monopolize the pastry industry in Huaicheng.
After turning twenty-six years old, Langying could only hope to guard this place by the Huaihe River and watch children catch willow flowers.
In the short ten years that Lang Ying has lived in this life, what she dislikes the most is visions. Whenever something out of the ordinary happens to her, something bad will happen to her. For example, when she was eight years old, she happily squatted in front of her house to watch the ants move in the vast field. As a result, during the Peach Blossom Flood that year, the Huaihe River changed its course and flooded their entire town. Many people could not sleep that night, including Langying's parents. For another example, when she was eighteen years old, there was lightning and thunder in the mid-winter weather. That night, she found the dying Chun Niang siblings at the door. From then on, two more mouths appeared in the rice money that Su Ji Bakery barely had to eat.
Time passed by, and when Langying recalled it, she realized that every vision in her life brought not only misfortune, but also regret that the years passed quickly and time was easily thrown away.
