Siheyuan: Ten Pounds of Pork Belly, Angry at All the Beasts

In the courtyard, everyone has a small calculation in mind. Li Chengguo, who has just transformed into an eighteen-year-old buyer, has been robbed of all the pension left by his parents. He also has two four-year-old siblings with him. There are still seven days until his salary is due next month. There were people in the courtyard who were planning to let him adopt his younger brother, there were people who were jealous of the fat boy in his factory who wanted to take advantage of him by sucking his blood, and there were even lively people who were waiting to see if he could take the blame. Fortunately, on the day of binding to the farm system, ten kilograms of fine pork belly appeared out of thin air along with rice, flour, grains and oil. As soon as the lid of the pot was lifted, the aroma of braised pork filled the whole courtyard, making even the rats under the wall spin in circles with greed. Those rolling eyes, calculations and cynicism all suddenly changed in the face of the real smell of meat and white rice. Li Chengguo simply rode his newly purchased permanent bicycle back to the courtyard. The handlebars were tied with a red rope given by the deaf old lady. There were two little guys sitting on the crossbar licking White Rabbit toffee. Since all the beasts in the courtyard wanted to see him lose his temper, he would eat braised pork with white rice to see who could lose his composure first. Life was just getting better, and he didn't want to be dragged into the mud by these red-eyed neighbors. This novel and its characters are purely fictitious.
