Siheyuan: Young Silly Zhu Raises Yushui All by Himself

In the late autumn of 1952, fifteen-year-old He Yuzhu opened his eyes and found himself in the body of the notorious "Silly Zhu." On the fourth day, his father, He Daqing, ran off with a widow, leaving him and his six-year-old sister, He Yushui, behind.

He had no job, no support, and just one million old yuan in his pocket. The eyes of everyone in the compound lit up. Yi Zhonghai saw him as a potential caretaker in his old age, Jia Zhangshi coveted his family's three spacious rooms, and Deaf Granny was waiting for him to come begging for a place to stay.

But they didn't know this Silly Zhu had become someone else. With the System at his side, he raised his cooking skills to intermediate level in just three days. At the steel mill's cooking test, one dish of braised pork won over Director Lou. At fifteen, he landed a permanent job with a monthly salary of 360,000 yuan, and could openly bring boxed meals home.

Want to use him as a cash cow? Dream on. Yi Zhonghai pretended to be kind and offered him money? He gave it right back. Liu Guangtian bullied He Yushui? He went to the Liu family's door with a stick and forced Liu Haizhong to beat his own son.

In this life, he would rely on no one. He would protect his sister, make money and build a career, and take He Yushui out of this cutthroat compound. As for those beasts, he'd deal with them one by one. Not a single one would get away.
