In her past life, Autumn Lane was abandoned by her husband and son and drowned. She is reborn back to her wedding day in 1983, where she catches the groom and widow Mia Hayes plotting to steal her Supply and Marketing Cooperative Iron Rice Bowl job. She immediately calls off the wedding, tears open the Betrothal Gift red envelope that only contains two yuan and old newspapers, returns the betrothal gifts and leaves without looking back. Without the Iron Rice Bowl, she spends two yuan to buy a basket of chicken frames, which she cooks into savory braised sauce flavor, selling from the market stall to the Bus Station. With complete business permits, she secures a Fixed Stall, opens a shop and hires staff, eventually becoming a Ten-Thousand-Yuan Household supplying goods to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative. Mia Hayes is subject to Post Dismissal for falsifying her work placement, and Jake Jones comes back to beg for reconciliation only to be rejected. When a flood hits later, she takes precautions in advance and protects the entire village from harm — this life, she only saves herself.
