Opening a Restaurant in Great Song (Food)

Huang Yu transmigrates to the Song dynasty and becomes the king of a bandit stronghold.

With the imperial army’s crackdown on bandits fast approaching, Huang Yu is very worried.

Then, unexpectedly, a frail young lord falls out of the sky and into her lap.

Huang Yu’s eyes light up.

She leaves the stronghold and opens a little restaurant in Bianjing.

Onlookers: Huh? Is this even edible?

Later, when they see tables piled with glutinous rice cakes, cherry pastries, crab-stuffed oranges, hibiscus chicken...

Everyone is stunned.

“You wouldn’t believe it, the prefect came here to buy pastries yesterday.”

“What’s so special about that? The emperor himself has been here!”

The little restaurant is packed with customers, bringing in a fortune every day.

She samples all the delicacies of Bianjing, visits every entertainment house and theater, and lives a wonderfully carefree life~

Huang Yu is happily counting her silver when her mother gives her a hard thump.

Her mother: What happened to that son-in-law you promised me? Are you planning to buy one with all that silver?

Huang Yu says solemnly: First build a career, then start a family!

Young Lord Yang spends all day with Buddhist lamps and scriptures for company. Everyone in the capital is afraid he’ll accidentally become a monk.

Huang Yu has always thought this nobleman is exceptionally gentle and a truly good person, but she never expected he’d been plotting to win her over all along.

Later, everyone is astonished to see Young Lord Yang tenderly kiss the girl’s temple. “Huh? Frail and delicate?”

Reading guide:

1. One-on-one romance, both sexually inexperienced. A reformed, obedient little chef (not really) vs. a genuinely strong-as-an-ox, utterly devoted young lord.

2. Semi-historical fantasy. Readers who care about historical accuracy should proceed with caution.

3. A little chef who has given up banditry and gone straight arrives in Bianjing (food-focused).
