After Being Driven Out of the Restaurant, I Cook for the Whole Town
In 1999, Tian Guixiang married into the He family and spent twenty years as their head chef. At her mother-in-law's 60th birthday banquet, with a hundred tables of guests, her husband publicly announced that his young female apprentice would take over as head chef. The apprentice was also pregnant with the He family's child. Her mother-in-law seized the gold bracelet that had been part of Guixiang's dowry, while her husband offered her just 200 yuan to divorce him and leave. With nowhere else to go, Guixiang and her daughter took shelter in an abandoned opera stage. Guixiang accepted the funeral banquet that nobody else was willing to cater and joined forces with three other women facing adversity to establish the Guixiang Banquet Team. Starting from scratch by borrowing cooking pots and buying ingredients on credit, they gradually built a business of their own. What Guixiang wants to reclaim is not just the restaurant, but also her name and the dignity every working person deserves.
