In a Year of Famine, I Found a Handsome Young Lord: The Little Chef Feeds Her Family Meat Every Meal

[Food + survival in a famine + System + wealth and success + 1v1]

Money-loving young chef vs. a noble heir who says one thing but means another

Modern culinary prodigy Xu Qingluo opens her eyes to find herself a farm girl with no family, so starved during a famine that she's skin and bones.

Her father is missing, her three younger brothers are crying from hunger, and the family doesn't even have a grain of rice.

Luckily, the Food Canon Points System she's bound to is powerful. As long as she earns good reviews from customers, she can collect points and exchange them for all kinds of seeds, spices, kitchenware...

While others chew tree bark during the famine, she grows high-yield crops and stews braised pork.

From a roadside food stall to the most famous restaurant in the land, she takes her three younger brothers along as she takes down scoundrels and makes money, her abacus clicking like thunder!

Life grows more prosperous by the day, but the badly wounded man she saved on a whim becomes the biggest curveball.

When they first meet, Xiao Yiheng looks at her in disdain. "Such vulgar food! This heir would rather starve to death than eat a bite of yours!"

Later, as he watches imperial merchants and powerful nobles line up to give Xu Qingluo money and ask for her hand, he slams all his assets and his heir's seal onto the table in the middle of the night, his eyes red. "Luoluo, the whole estate belongs to you, and so do I. Can you... promise to feed me for the rest of my life?"

Xu Qingluo calmly taps at her small sandalwood abacus without looking up.

"You can marry into my family, but there are three managers ahead of you waiting to pay their franchise fees. Young lord, did you bring enough cash?"
