I Set Up a Food Stall Outside the Imperial Academy

When Shen Zhizhi opened her eyes, she realized she had transmigrated.

She had landed in a humble household in Bianjing.

Her father had barely breathed his last when her third uncle seized the secret recipe for the Shen family's steamed buns and sold it to the Imperial College's kitchen.

As it happened, the emperor was visiting the Imperial College. He praised the buns as delicious, saying they were worthy fare for nurturing scholars.

From then on, the Imperial College's buns grew famous. After her father's death, Shen Zhizhi's family eatery lost its ancestral recipe, business plummeted, and the place shut down. They even had to give up the shop to pay their debts.

Shen Zhizhi looked back at her frail widowed mother and her younger siblings, who were weak with hunger. How could she put up with this?!

As a top-grade chef, Shen Zhizhi was confident she could easily run an eatery herself.

Not only that, she was going to set up a food stall outside the Imperial College!

Soup dumplings, hot and sour noodles, fish soup noodles, pan-fried wontons, grilled sausages... Her food was so fragrant it carried for miles, tempting even the Imperial College students who devoted themselves to studying the classics!

Everyone knew a beautiful young woman had set up a food stall outside the Imperial College. Her food was delicious and reasonably priced, so people had to hurry over and queue up. First come, first served!

Shen Zhizhi saved up enough money to buy back the shop. She even expanded it into a restaurant, helped her younger brother get into the best academy, and watched their lives grow brighter and brighter!
