Raising Kids and Building a Fortune in Ancient Times (Cuisine)

[Going premium tomorrow. Chapters 19-46 will be temporarily locked, so if you've already read them, please be careful not to buy them again. Thanks for your support!]

An orphan girl from a children's home transmigrates, and finds herself at a mass grave from the start.

Her husband’s family, who married her to bring good luck, casts her aside. Her birth parents abandon her. With no one to rely on, she’s thrown into hellishly difficult mode.

Stay calm. With her cooking skills, surely she won’t starve to death, right?

In this life, she’ll take things slowly. She’ll make money and live well, and never again be the biggest sucker of her past life, who died before spending all her money.

First, she’ll make sure they have enough to eat.

Xinyue and her scrawny younger brother and sisters set up a little food stall by the docks.

No one expects much from these kids, whose average age is barely over ten.

But the stall soon serves up one new treat after another: dumplings cooked in little pots, crispy tofu balls with molten centers, spicy prawns, barbecue hot pot, and sweet milk tea and bread...

They smell so good that even passing dogs drool nonstop.

People watch as more and more customers come from far and wide to try the food. The Daughter's Pie gradually becomes famous, starting from a corner of the docks.

Even the impoverished little village where Xinyue and the others live, Daughter Village, becomes a prosperous place that everyone envies.

As the food stall grows step by step, Xinyue's life becomes more colorful too:

She grows sweet potatoes, makes chili sauce, opens a workshop, expands her shops, and organizes a merchant caravan...

She raises herself all over again, learning to earn and spend, moving forward steadily, and blossoming in this new world.

Surely, a young woman like her, successful in business and in the prime of her youth, should have matchmakers beating down her door. So why hasn't a single one shown up?

The matchmakers grit their teeth. That young man by your side guards you like a wolf guarding its food. Who would dare?

A beautiful young man, a little wolf cub to everyone else but a loyal puppy with her, meets Xinyue's eyes. His eyes curve into a smile, and he follows her everywhere, sweet and clingy.

His life belongs to her, and he should spend his whole life protecting her.

Xinyue: Hmm, something seems a little off here?

Well, I guess that's all right.
