Siheyuan: The God of Cooking, Starting by Rejecting Qin Huairu

He Yuzhu never imagined that after his business failed and he was desperate enough to take his own life, a bolt of lightning would send him back to 1961!

Even more unbelievable, he had become the hapless Silly Zhu from Love in the Courtyard, a man exploited his whole life and left without a family in old age!

The moment he opened his eyes, the bloodsucking widow Qin Huairu was waiting for a lunchbox, the moralizing First Uncle was getting ready to lecture him, the shrewd Third Uncle had his eye on his paycheck, and his sworn enemy Xu Damao was plotting something nasty...

Were all the courtyard's beasts waiting to carve him up and drink his blood?

He Yuzhu smiled. "I'm tearing up this script!"

From today on, Silly Zhu wouldn't be silly anymore. He was Niu Gulu Yuzhu!

The skills of a master chef? Just the basics! English, painting, and design? My art of the future will blow the minds of you country bumpkins!

He'd reject moral blackmail, kick that hypocritical widow to the curb, and lend a hand to a few pretty young ladies along the way.

The courtyard's beasts were dumbfounded. "Why won't Silly Zhu do what he's told anymore? And how the hell can he speak a foreign language?!"

Qin Huairu: "Silly Zhu, I even washed my clothes. Why are you..."

He Yuzhu: "Chef Qin, please mind your conduct. My future wife might get the wrong idea."

Xu Damao: "Silly Zhu, what are you so smug about?!"

He Yuzhu: "Shut up, idiot!"
