Su Nian, as the inheritor of Su's traditional pastry-making techniques, is running her painstakingly managed small shop when it becomes thriving. The landlord, Wang Cuihua, raises the rent astronomically and tries to seize the shop. Su Nian and her husband Gu Yan refuse to compromise and are forced to move to a shabby courtyard in an urban village. Holding fast to traditional methods, the two win the recognition of the neighborhood with their conscientious pastries. To seek profit, Wang Cuihua uses inferior ingredients to make fake pastries that harm people, and suffers the consequences of her own actions. Su Nian and her husband guard their craftsmanship, step by step turning Su's Pastries into a municipal intangible cultural heritage pastry brand, and with sincere hearts and craftsmanship, they brew a sweet career belonging to ordinary people.
