Siheyuan: From the Start, I Refuse to Lend Grain and Make the Pretty Widow Cry

After transmigrating to the 1960s, Lin Jianguo becomes an orphan living in the Beastly Courtyard.

Right from the start, Qin Huairu, a pretty young widow, comes knocking to "borrow food." She weeps like a pear blossom in the rain, while her schemes click away like an abacus.

Lin Jianguo, who's seen plenty of two-faced women in his previous life, won't fall for that!

He refuses outright, then activates the Emotion-Harvesting System!

The First Master tries to guilt-trip him with moralizing? He fires back! Silly Zhu stirs up trouble by skimping on food in the canteen?

Lin Jianguo catches him red-handed stealing from the factory, making sure he pays dearly!

In an era of hunger and hardship, a soft heart will only get you killed.

Lin Jianguo has made up his mind: he'll protect his own food and walk his own path. Anyone who tries to scheme against him will be made to swallow their abacus beads through their tears!
