Siheyuan: Fleeing to Beijing, I Was Rescued from the Start

After transmigrating to a courtyard house in the 1950s, I started out as a refugee and was given shelter in the compound.

On the very day I moved in, Jia Zhangshi and her son looked down on me.

So whenever Jia Zhangshi and her son went out to steal things, they were always hit by bad luck.

The First Master used his reputation for helping their family to secure benefits for the Jia family.

Before long, the First Master's reputation was in tatters. He was actually having an affair with Jia Zhangshi? The whole compound was stunned!

Granny Deaf wanted to use her status as the old ancestor to lord it over Zhou Yang and make him pay her a New Year's visit?

Zhou Yang said he was happy to pay his respects, as long as she handed over a red envelope.

No red envelope? Why should I pay New Year's respects to an old geezer like you? I've got better things to do...

Xu Damao tried to set Zhou Yang up, but when Zhou Yang stepped out of a military vehicle, he wilted completely!

Silly Zhu wanted to show off in front of Zhou Yang, since he could take home leftovers every day.

Little did he know that Zhou Yang ate at restaurants every day. Even the food fed to dogs was better than what Silly Zhu ate! When Silly Zhu found out, he fell completely silent!

As time went by, Zhou Yang could only shake his head in exasperation. I haven't even lifted a finger. How did everyone in the compound manage to bring themselves down?
