In the 1942 northern Henan famine, Xiao Sui'er, a refugee girl, huddled in a broken temple with a cloth bag holding her 'three treasures'—sprouting potatoes, her mother's edible wild herb notebook, and a pottery pot that could cook thick congee. She traded potato sprouts for barren land from the landlord, taught villagers to identify edible weeds with the notebook, and saved a starving boy with her congee. No one believed she could survive—until her potato field sprouted green shoots, until villagers' bowls smelled of congee, and until the landlord came begging for cooperation. But her real treasure was never the objects—it was the 'will to live' she'd clung to amid the starving dead. When someone tried to steal her potato sprouts, she gave them to the whole village; when accused of greed, she set up a porridge shed. Turns out, her 'fortune' was turning a desperate famine into a way out for everyone.
