Lin Yang is a pushover "workhorse" at the company: his supervisor steals his project credits, colleagues dump all the dirty work on him. At home, he’s a "useless wimp" in his ex-wife’s eyes, even facing the loss of custody of their 5-year-old daughter. Everything changes when he finds his late father’s old notebook with a secret hand-made pickle recipe passed down from his grandfather. With help from Su Xiao, a college classmate who believes in him, Lin Yang sets up a night market stall selling pickles. The taste becomes a hit in the old street and is turned into a "city intangible cultural heritage snack" by a food blogger. As he rises, he exposes his supervisor’s embezzlement and proves to his daughter he’s not a coward—those "honest" forbearances were all his strength saved for a comeback.
