share time: 2026-01-07 12:30:29

Lin Xiaoman, guilt-ridden over losing her grandma's old porridge shop in her past life, is reborn in 1985. Seeing her grandma still struggling to make ends meet, she transforms their three small tables into a self-service porridge stall—10 cents for unlimited refills, plus pickles and a hot steamed bun! But neighbors mock her as “desperate for money,” and the grain station aunt warns, “Rationed grain can’t sustain this.” Unexpectedly, on opening day, a long line forms: workers and students crowd in yelling “One more bowl!” even the manager of the state-run restaurant comes to learn from her! When grandma holds a half-box of coins and tears up, Lin Xiaoman realizes: this time, she’s not just saving the porridge shop—she’s securing her grandma’s peace of mind for the rest of her life.
