Zhang Dan married Lilac, and Lilac was very filial to her in-laws. Later, Zhang Dan went out to do business and made a fortune. He fell in love with another woman, Haitang, and went home to rest lilacs. Later, Lilac married the firewood son of a poor old woman. Haitang, on the other hand, is lazy to cook every day, but it also burns all its property and leaves a bill for remarriage. Zhang Dan had to beg everywhere to make a living.

On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, Zhang Dan went to Lilac's house to beg. After being recognized, he was ashamed and plunged into the kitchen door. Because he belongs to the Jade Emperor family (all surnamed Zhang), the Jade Emperor named him the Kitchen God.
