After transmigrating into Love in the Courtyard, he becomes the short-lived Jia Dongxu!

Remembering how the original story ended, he knows the outcome was utterly tragic.

His mother, Jia Zhangshi, is a domineering troublemaker; his wife, Qin Huairu, is bent on bleeding him dry; and Banggeng has grown into an ungrateful brat.

Now that he's been given a second life, he absolutely won't let the tragedy happen again!

Jia Zhangshi dares to make a scene for no reason? He lays down house rules on the spot and gives her a stern lesson!

Qin Huairu still wants to scheme against everyone? He cuts off her plans to mooch off them!

Banggeng dares to steal and cheat? He disciplines him strictly and sets him straight!

Yi Zhonghai schemes to secure someone to support him in his old age, hoping to guilt-trip others with morality.

Silly Zhu is happy to be a sucker, letting others push him around.

All the neighbors in the courtyard have their eyes on the Jia family's possessions?

Sorry, it won't work on me, no matter who comes knocking!

Armed with top-notch fitter skills, he reforms his family at home and stands up to every unreasonable neighbor outside.

No saintly do-gooder behavior, no soft heart. He won't indulge anyone's bad habits!

He protects the family fortune and changes the fate of his whole family. He won't rely on handouts; he'll use his own skills to build a life of wealth!
