Jiang Hongying's Braised Food Stall
Jiang Hongying, a woman from Sichuan, spends a year tending the braising pot, only to receive 36,000 yuan from her younger brother-in-law, supposedly as reimbursement for the ingredient costs she had paid upfront. While he flaunts his new car, her sister-in-law complains that Hongying smells too strongly of cooking fumes, and even her daughter is given old clothes as so-called charity. Hongying decides to end their partnership and set up her own stall, putting up a sign that reads 'Hongying's Braised Food.' Her husband helps repair the stove and deliver goods, while her signature Sichuan-style braised dishes win back loyal customers. She eventually moves her little stall into the prepared-food section of a fresh food supermarket. Her brother-in-law expects her to lose all her investment and come crawling back, but his own business runs into trouble first. He thinks she only knows how to braise food, never realizing that the business cannot keep running without her.

Jiang Hongying, seorang wanita dari Sichuan, menghabiskan masa setahun menjaga periuk masakan rebus. Namun, adik iparnya hanya memberinya 36,000 yuan, kononnya sebagai bayaran balik kos bahan mentah yang telah didahulukannya. Ketika adik iparnya bermegah dengan kereta baharu, isteri adik iparnya pula tidak tahan dengan bau asap dan minyak pada tubuh Hongying. Malah, anak perempuannya turut diberikan pakaian lama seolah-olah itu satu sedekah. Hongying membuat keputusan untuk menamatkan perkongsian mereka dan membuka gerainya sendiri dengan papan tanda 'Masakan Rebus Hongying'. Suaminya membantu membaiki dapur dan menghantar barang, manakala Hongying menggunakan kepakaran masakan rebus ala Sichuan untuk mengekalkan pelanggan setianya. Akhirnya, dia berjaya memindahkan gerai kecilnya ke bahagian makanan siap dimasak di sebuah kedai makanan segar. Adik iparnya berharap Hongying akan kehilangan semua modal lalu kembali kepadanya, tetapi perniagaannya sendiri terlebih dahulu menghadapi masalah. Dia menyangka Hongying hanya tahu memasak makanan rebus, tanpa menyedari bahawa perniagaan itu langsung tidak dapat diteruskan tanpanya.
