Blurb:
In her previous life, Yan Zhaoruo was entrusted to the Qin family by her father and married young.
Her husband, Qin Chongyu, was an army officer: stern and cold, and always set on having things his way. She was quiet and gentle, so after they married they were like strangers, barely speaking to each other.
Later, she suffered a sudden miscarriage and was never able to conceive again. Her sister-in-law, who lived with them, grew increasingly dissatisfied with her and took every opportunity to nitpick and make cutting remarks whenever her husband was away.
Yan Zhaoruo thought perhaps their marriage was so unhappy because she couldn't have children and was too meek. If she could start over, she wouldn't marry again. She'd work hard to live a happy life on her own.
But when she woke up, she was back in the 1970s, and she'd already been married to Qin Chongyu for three years.
Reader advisory: The ending is a bad ending. Read at your own discretion if you don't like that.
Upcoming novel: The Feisty Restaurant Owner in the 1980s, a period drama about food
The Shu family favors boys over girls. After having seven daughters, each one underfed and sickly, they still want to keep trying for a son. Unfortunately, Mrs. Shu can't get pregnant again. Mr. Shu despairingly lavishes all his love and the family's best food on his brother's son, hoping that at least after he's dead, a boy will be there to toss a bowl at his funeral.
Shu Mi wakes up in someone else's body. Looking at her mother and sisters, who have suffered and endured unhappy marriages, she gets furious!
Smack!
She gives her thigh, now the thickest part of her body thanks to her Food System, a fierce slap (it's actually long and slender). Don't be afraid, sisters. Stick close to me!
*
With the golden finger of a Food System, Shu Mi and her sisters soon save enough money from their street food stall to open a restaurant.
They cook seafood, roast crispy-skinned duck, braise pig ears, stew cabbage with glass noodles, and toss shredded chicken with Sichuan peppercorns. They're all traditional dishes, but once served, their aromas carry three hundred meters on the wind, and soon they win a huge following of devoted foodies.
In no time, their restaurant moves from a hidden corner to a bustling commercial street. Her sisters kick out their regretful, worthless ex-husbands. Then they bring their mother to the city, and the women build happy, fulfilling lives together while expanding the restaurant across the country.
As for her father, who weeps, begs on his knees, and keeps repenting that he'll never favor boys over girls again, he can go right on spoiling his nephew. He's not welcome here!

Yan Haicheng adopts a son and daughter from a fallen comrade. The two children are largely left to their own devices, and every day they take money to eat at Shu Mi's restaurant. After a while, they decide they want Shu Mi to be their godmother.
As for their godfather, who's that? Never heard of him.
Yan Haicheng: I want to see just how good her cooking really is!
But after going once, he can't stop going every day.
Before long, the whole circle is saying that Yan Haicheng has taken a liking to the restaurant's skilled, alluring, and feisty owner.
Shu Mi is utterly dismissive: No, no, he just loves my cooking.
Upcoming novel 2: A Doctor's Easygoing Daily Life, a historical transmigration story
Surgeon Chu Xiang transmigrates into ancient times and, to stay alive, disguises herself as a man and works as a wandering doctor.
She uses her Medical System to cure one difficult case after another. Her practice keeps growing until she can barely manage, so she decides to take on apprentices.
Who would have thought she'd keep taking on more and more apprentices while the wards remained packed every day, forcing her to rebuild her clinic as a hospital?
Well, since she has a hospital now, she should probably train nurses, anesthesiologists, administrators, and everyone else as soon as possible, right?
Then one day, Chu Xiang looks at the enormous, modern hospital in front of her and falls silent.
Theme: Live in peace and friendship, and grow together.
It's good. The damage you suffered cannot be made up for. It's not good to force them to be together.
This direction is weird
The heroine was too miserable in her previous life. I hope she has a good ending in this life. She can be with whomever she likes.
I forgot about it halfway through the chase, but I didn't expect it to be over. Skip the middle chapters and read the ending directly. This ending is quite good. The heroine should stay away from all this and have a new life of her own.
This male protagonist also has an ex-girlfriend Bai Yueguang or something? Did he have something in mind at the time?
The male protagonist will still be Qin, right? The female protagonist has been so miserable in her previous life. Wouldn't it be good for the female protagonist to have a new life?
I think the male protagonist's Bai Yueguang is a foreshadowing. It will be the final whetstone for the relationship between the male and female protagonists in the future. It's really funny. The current trend of novels is that the love between a man and a woman often needs a third party to promote it.
The male protagonist looked on coldly, which chilled the female protagonist's heart.
The heroine really let go
