The earthquake changed the fate of Zhang Zijun (Tian Hairong), a girl of 14 years old. In order to protect her brother Hanako (Jerry), her mother was smashed to death and her father died in the earthquake. The three brothers and sisters became orphans overnight. The cruel aunt reluctantly took them in for relief, but sold them for money. After Zijun escaped, he wandered around with his brother and sister.

Lao Shen, a good cook, took in three brothers and sisters. The old man took back Haitian, an illegitimate child, but angered the three daughters of Shenyang. In order to compete for the inheritance of the family property, the three daughters began to quarrel with him. When Shen was dying, Zijun decided to marry Haitian in order to legally adopt him. Old Shentou passed away, leaving Zijun with a Haitian, a menu of "Shenjia Cuisine" and a brand-new "Old Shenjia Noodle Restaurant".
