Siheyuan: With Three Adorable Kids in Tow, I Make My List!

In 1960, Han Qiushi opened his eyes and found himself the warehouse keeper at Hongxing Steelworks, with the three orphaned daughters of his fallen comrades in tow. The grain jar was nearly empty, Yi Zhonghai had his eye on his home, and everyone in the compound was watching to see how this outsider and demobilized soldier would survive.

Just then, he awakened a System!

Anyone who owed him grain, had cheated him, or wanted to take his home was entered in the ledger, and he’d earn rewards. Han Qiushi didn’t believe in fate, only settling accounts: those who took his home would pay for it, those who tried to frame him would repay him in grain, and those who spread rumors would confess in public. He stocked up on food for the girls, bought them clothes, and paid for their education, turning the whole compound into one clear and orderly ledger.

The ledger grew thicker and thicker, from personal accounts to compound-wide accounts, then to workplace accounts. Everyone in the compound thought he was easy to push around, until he opened the ledger in front of them all.

“What you owe me, you’ll repay sooner or later.”

This is the story of a demobilized soldier who, during a famine, raises three girls and makes a life unlike anything anyone else could manage.

All those scoundrels who crossed him are kicking themselves!

In this life, he’ll help his three daughters live life on their own terms!
