Reborn as a Clever Cook in the 1980s

As the foil to Shen Xiuxiu, the heroine of The Lucky Girl of the Eighties, Shen Qingqing really drew the short straw.

The heroine had both parents growing up and was everyone's darling.

Shen Qingqing's mother died young, her father favored sons over daughters, and her stepmother humiliated and abused her. Anyone could bully her at will.

The heroine grew more beautiful by the day, married an overseas Chinese who had returned home, and lived a smooth, happy life.

Shen Qingqing's face was scarred by burns, turning her into an ugly woman. She worked herself to the bone for her family until she became seriously ill, was driven out of the house by her parents, and eventually died full of resentment...

One night, reborn, Shen Qingqing returned to the age of seventeen.

She gave a cold laugh.

Whoever wants to follow this ridiculous plot can go ahead! I'm done with it!

Shen Qingqing returned to her maternal grandfather's home and opened Qingqing's Snack Shop.

Who knew that her grandfather's vegetable garden came with its own Happiness-Boosting System?

Just by cooking, she could reach the pinnacle of life!

As Qingqing's Snack Shop grew more and more famous,

all sorts of big shots came knocking, lining up just to get a bite of Qingqing's cooking.

Leading researcher: After eating Qingqing's braised pork, hair even grew back on my bald spot!

Olympic long-distance running champion: I broke the world record thanks to Qingqing's pickled cucumbers. Can you believe it?

The novel's former heroine and lucky girl: What's going on? Weren't you supposed to be my little darling?

As she kept cooking, her parents showed up with her younger brother, begging her to help them out.

Qingqing: Sorry, get lost.

Then, one night, as she went about her business,

the novel's biggest villain came to Qingqing's door, leaning on a cane...

Theme: Let the System show the way, and let's all get rich together!
