Top modern chef Xia Wan wakes up as a poor peasant girl—kneeling by her mother’s coffin, facing a landlord who threatens to sell her. She makes "Jade Glass Soup" with wild vegetables to save her family, then uses "Gold-Inlaid Buns" to fix the county magistrate’s birthday banquet. Scholar Li Heng, heading to the capital for exams, tastes her food and insists she come: "My exam success depends on your cooking." In the capital, Xia discovers Li is targeted by fraud—she swaps toxic mushrooms with modern knowledge and serves "Clear & White Soup" to warn him. Li wins six consecutive first places, becoming the top scholar. Xia, praised by the emperor for her belief that "cooking and governing both need conscience", rises from a peasant chef to enter the court.
