Siheyuan: I Refuse to Pay Back My Debt, Driving Jia Zhangshi to Tears

Lin Yuan transmigrates into a Beijing courtyard house. He's long heard that everyone in the place is wicked, a bunch of top-tier pests who'll eat you alive!

But from the start, he's completely dumbfounded: Yi Zhonghai offers to lend him money, Jia Zhangshi brings him a new pair of shoes herself, Liu Haizhong shows up with eggs, and even Yan Bugui, a notorious penny-pincher, brings a hen right to his door.

Lin Yuan is baffled. Weren't they all supposed to be beasts? Why are they being so nice to me?

He soon sees through the old schemers' plans. If they want to take advantage of him, he'll give them a taste of their own medicine! He won't go out of his way to repay borrowed money, and he'll accept every gift they send. Let's see which of these scheming old pests ends up crying in despair! No saintly doormat protagonist, no frustrating angst. A battle of wits from beginning to end, as he turns the tables and keeps the whole courtyard under his thumb!
