Song Mian worked overtime until she dropped dead. When she opened her eyes again, she had transmigrated into the daughter of a disgraced official. Her whole family was crammed into a dilapidated thatched hut.

Winter was approaching, and they had no cotton clothes or quilts. The kitchen only had a little food donated by others, clearly not enough to last them. She looked at the empty hut, distressed, unable to even produce a single copper coin. Song Mian: “...” What a desolate transmigration.

She planned to first fill the rice jar, starting with making delicious food to sell at a stall. Later, the imperial court changed, and a new emperor ascended the throne. The top priority was to clear her family's name. Many people thought that after years of decline, the Song family might not recover its former glory.

Who knew, the Song family was rather reluctant to be reinstated. They had built a farm in the outskirts of the capital and were living a joyful life, "planting beans beneath the southern mountains, picking melons in the western fields." Song Mian even enjoyed a life of "awning, fish pond, pomegranate tree, white cat, fat dog, and a handsome husband." Having gotten used to such a relaxed life, who would want to risk their neck in a 996 grind again?

Song's Farmhouse Fun became popular in the capital, with dishes like bobochicken, bridge-ribs, fried chicken, oden, pastries, and sponge cakes... They were so delicious that people suspected something illicit might have been added. This alarmed the Dali Temple Minister.

He disguised himself and infiltrated, determined to sweep away all darkness. However, he met several familiar pairs of eyes. "Your, Your Majesty? Grand, Grand Secretary? Gen, General?" The few people who were already drooling from the delicious food: "..."

Next up: "My Arch-Nemesis is Lying to Me Again Today," synopsis at the end!

A pure-hearted gong who flirts unknowingly vs. a black-bellied and aloof shou.

Pei Shuyu always felt that Ji Yan, her childhood friend who grew up with her, had been recently distancing herself. When others asked for her help, Ji Yan would always smile and agree, but when Pei Shuyu proactively offered to draw her portrait, she only received a cold refusal.

Feeling indignant, Pei Shuyu began to subtly tease Ji Yan, trying every means to attract her attention and observe her reactions. But Ji Yan seemed completely unmoved by her attentions?! Ji Yan is such an idiot, she thought angrily to herself.

Everyone knew Ji Yan was aloof and proud, seemingly uninterested in anything except her studies. Only Ji Yan herself knew that something more worthwhile than studying had always been the person who accompanied her in her studies.

Another female classmate happily thanked Pei Shuyu with a portrait she had received, saying, "Shuyu, your hands are beautiful, and your paintings are beautiful too." Ji Yan, standing nearby, silently made a note in her little book.

In countless midnight dreams, Ji Yan repeatedly affirmed her goal: Get closer to her. Stick by her. Obtain her. Ji Yan had intended to slowly boil the frog, letting her childhood friend fall deeply into the love net she meticulously wove, but—

Pei Shuyu always danced on her red line, actively teasing and seducing her, lying in her arms, and innocently blinking her eyes: "Ji Yan, your heart is beating so fast." Or leaning close and softly asking ambiguous questions: "I think I might like you a little, Ji Yan." Ji Yan was almost, just almost, unable to keep up her act.

[Mini-Theater]

In the empty art room, Ji Yan, who could no longer hold back, turned off the lights, pressed against Pei Shuyu's back, and personally brought up old scores: "How many people have you drawn for before? Do you want me to list them one by one for you?" Pei Shuyu was terrified.

"When will you draw for me?" "I don't want the same as them. Let's try a different way, I want..." The last few words completely scorched Pei Shuyu’s ears. It was then that she realized,原來, Ji Yan wasn't dumb at all.

After binding with the Gourmet System, the back door of Sheng Jiu's restaurant led to another world.

The first otherworldly guest brought her a crab claw taller than a person. Sheng Jiu thought, "These ingredients are a bit wild!"

The small restaurant on the street corner quickly launched new dishes: steamed shrimp dumplings and crab meat fried rice. Various enticing aromas continuously attracted diners.

After their meal, customers commented: "Although it's expensive, it's delicious, but the serving efficiency isn't great." Sheng Jiu retorted, "Why don't you try catching the crabs yourself?"

As more and more worlds opened up, the ingredients also became better and better. The restaurant's staff also became... more extraordinary.

Watching the big shots from various worlds busy in the restaurant, Sheng Jiu huddled in a corner, silently roaring: "In our world, only one partner is allowed at a time, one, just one!"
