Siheyuan: From the Start, Cutting Ties with My Family and Beating Yi Zhonghai

He transmigrates to 1951 and becomes sixteen-year-old He Yuzhu, whose father has just been lured away by the White Widow. From the start, one swig of liquor is all it takes for him to wake up with an Age of Empires golden finger: resources, farming, troops, anything he wants!

His deadbeat dad runs off? Cut ties! Leave the house deed behind. I'll raise my little sister. Go live with whoever you want.

Yi Zhonghai wants to push him around? One big slap will teach him a lesson. Break his hand with a rolling pin and show him what it means to be the courtyard's resident champion!

Wang Defu wants to fire him? He turns around and reports him to the union, sending him straight to clean the toilets!

Jia Zhangshi has a foul mouth? One slap for every little punk, until she takes a detour whenever she sees me!

Xu Damao wants to be a pain? Grab him by the ears, rub his head, and even that shameless Damao will have to call me Brother Zhu!

His little sister Yushui? Spoil her! Put more beef than noodles in her beef noodle soup, and make seafood feasts an everyday meal!

The whole courtyard wants to scheme against him? Sorry, I'm He Yuzhu. I don't start trouble, but I'm not afraid of it either. Whoever messes with me gets beaten!

With Age of Empires at my fingertips and supplies in hand, you can all fight among yourselves. I'll take my sister to eat and drink well, and enjoy watching you tear each other apart!

Not convinced? Come on, see if you can take one of my slaps!
