The Finest Tavern in Bianjing

Shen Yugui has been a food editor for ten years. Whenever she sees another transmigration story that's been done to death, she can't help feeling unimpressed.

But what she never expected was that one day, amid rolling thunder, she would transmigrate herself!

And as if transmigrating weren't enough, she had to start out penniless, with a family so poor they had nothing to their name!

It was the dead of winter. Even getting enough to eat and warm clothes would cost money.

But where could she get any?

With no other choice, she bit the bullet and spent a fortune buying a shabby little shop.

If she wanted to establish herself in Bianjing, the only way to make money was to open a restaurant.

Buy winter clothes! Fill her belly! Stay alive!

Unexpectedly, her little life turned out to be pretty comfortable.

Spring brought almond blossoms and fresh milk, summer meant chilled noodles with shrimp,

autumn brought flaky maple-leaf pastries, and winter meant hot pot and milk tea.

But no one expected Shen Yugui, with her career-focused heroine's script, to stumble upon a husband while making money.

"My lady, my lady, could you do me a favor and support me with your earnings from now on?"

"Then what use are you to me?!"

"I'm here to dote on you, of course!"

"To cherish you as the apple of my eye."

-----Blurb-----

They say red and blue have been a couple since time immemorial, and black and white have always made a married pair.

The old saying has a point.

Pangu swung his axe, and heaven and earth were born. The primordial age began, and the gods came into being.

Among all the deities across the four seas and eight lands, two deities are the most talked about.

One is Su Yan, the third son of the Su family of nine-tailed foxes: dressed in white, tall and slender, and peerlessly beautiful. He has captivated countless goddesses.

The other is the ancient Nine Heavens Holy Maiden, whose magic is so powerful that no god can rival her. She can protect all life, or destroy the world.

Yet these two deities first met when the haughty Holy Maiden's almond-blossom ball hit the head of a beautiful white fox.

They say that human women toss flower balls to find husbands.

This almond-blossom ball... counts as a flower ball, right?

Su Yan (showing off): Holy Maiden, care to do me the honor of dating me?

The Holy Maiden (unimpressed): I'm not interested in romance. I only want to protect all living beings.

But she never expected...

Su Yan (looking pitiful): Holy Maiden, since all you ever want is to protect all living beings, I'll let you have your way. I won't bother you anymore.

The Holy Maiden (smiling slyly): It's true that I want to protect all living beings, but why do you think you don't count as one of them?

Core theme: Savor life through good food.
