The Supporting Female Lead's Little Restaurant (Ancient to Modern)

[My new story, The Lazybones of the Eighties Finds a Good Match and Marries Up, is now underway. Add it to your collection on my author page.]

Lu Zhi is the owner of an ancient-era restaurant. One day, she transmigrates into a romance novel as the male lead's cannon-fodder ex-wife. She's gentle and considerate, well-read and reasonable, practically the perfect wife, but after their divorce she still ends up as a foil to the heroine.

Just after transmigrating, Lu Zhi leaves behind divorce papers, rents a small shop, and starts cooking delicious food.

Tofu and shrimp paste casserole, pineapple spare ribs, boiled fish...

The male lead is so hungry he cries, begging Lu Zhi to take him back.

Her younger sister-in-law drools and apologizes.

Her younger brother-in-law wants her to be his big sister.

Even her mother-in-law says the male lead is useless and can't get back together with Lu Zhi.

The man living next door comes over to buy food, blushing. Lu Zhi gives him a huge box of stir-fried pork with dried bamboo shoots. "If you don't propose to me soon, don't come by for dinner anymore."

Lu Rou is the most beautiful woman in the residential compound, and also the laziest.

To avoid being sent to the countryside, Lu Rou starts going on blind dates.

He can't be ugly, and he definitely can't be poor. And this one looks like he can't do any work, so he's out too.

The man has broad shoulders, long legs, and a handsome face.

Lu Rou likes him at first sight, though she's heard he's a difficult one.

The famously unsentimental Deputy Regiment Commander Zhou looks at the fair-skinned, beautiful young woman in front of him, blushes, and says, "I can do the housework you mentioned, and I can hand over my wages. That's all fine."

P.S. This is a lightly ensemble-focused story.
