Siheyuan: A Lonely Old Man? His Daughter Is a Peerless National Scholar

Li Weiguo, who transmigrated here, donates his ancestral home to repay a kindness, only to end up in a den of beasts.

He's the compound's "idiot," "capitalist," and "bad element." His daughter's honorable service to her country is twisted into the slanderous claim that she "ran off with someone." His efforts to make a living by brewing alcohol are condemned as a "tail of capitalism."

He grits his teeth and struggles through humiliation, all to avoid implicating his daughter, Li Xiangzhen, who is far away in the Gobi, pouring her heart and soul into the Two Bombs, One Satellite project.

But when everyone in the courtyard compound starts hurling insults at Li Xiangzhen without restraint, Li Weiguo finally snaps! An eye for an eye, even if it means mutual destruction...

That day, news of the mushroom cloud spreads across the country. Li Xiangzhen, a peerless national treasure, returns in glory, only to learn of the humiliating life Li Weiguo endured in the courtyard compound. She erupts in fury, determined to have everyone there shot!
