Siheyuan: I'm He Daqing, and I Snatched the Position of the First Master

After transmigrating to a courtyard house in the 1950s, he becomes He Daqing, a chef about to abandon his son and daughter. The moment he wakes up, Yi Zhonghai is introducing him to the widowed Bai.

Chefs are highly sought-after in those days. They have plenty to eat and wear, and are respected by everyone. Why would He Daqing hang himself from the crooked tree that is Widow Bai?

He promptly turns her down, then wins over Qin Huairu, who is still single. Later, when the residents compete to become the courtyard's head, he takes the position of First Master right out from under Yi Zhonghai.

From then on, with the leadership straightened out, everything else falls into place too.

Under He Daqing's leadership, life in the courtyard grows better and better.
