Siheyuan: I Become Silly Zhu from the Start, but I’m Not Stupid

He transmigrates and immediately faces a deadly opening?

He's become Silly Zhu, the hapless guy from Love in the Courtyard?

Right before him, the hypocritical Qin Huairu wipes her tears and offers to introduce him to her younger sister-in-law. Meanwhile, behind his back, that little wolf cub Banggeng is already wandering through his home as if it were his own.

Fortunately, he awakens a choice-based System.

When Qin Huairu tries to win sympathy: Choice A: keep being a lovesick fool and give her chicken and lunchboxes; Choice B: firmly refuse and receive a master-level Sichuan cuisine recipe.

I laughed. In his previous life, Silly Zhu was bled dry by that widow until the day he died. Does she think she can manipulate me in this life too?

When Xu Damao puts on airs: Choice A: swallow the insult; Choice B: slap him across the face and receive improved cooking skills.

Sorry, I specialize in dealing with people who refuse to behave.

From then on, the Courtyard's whole atmosphere changes...

The hypocrite is dumbfounded: "Silly Zhu, what happened to you?"

Xu Damao is baffled: "Did this kid take the wrong medicine?"

The Third Uncle's scheme falls through: "My favors don't work anymore?"

With the System in hand, the world is mine. From cooking up special dishes in the canteen to becoming a master chef at state banquets, from a single, hapless guy to a winner in life.
