After a lot of effort, Lin Feng finally understood the origins and development of the matter. It turned out that this stylishly dressed, bald Auntie Zhang Mali, originally named Zhang Xiaohua, was the childhood sweetheart who grew up next door to Lin Feng's father, Lin Shengli. Unfortunately, when Zhang Xiaohua was fourteen, she left to apprentice in cooking, and when she returned after three years, Lin Feng's mother Zhang Guizhu had already gotten together with Lin Shengli.
Furthermore, by the time Zhang Xiaohua had returned from learning her culinary skills, Lin Shengli had enlisted in the military. Zhang Guizhu waited for him as his fiancée, hoping to marry him once his service ended. Heartbroken, Zhang Xiaohua left Zhi'an City in a fit of pique and married a man from Capital City, using her cooking skills to open her own chain of restaurants.
