Looking for books similar to Four-Hearts Courtyard: Kill to Stop Killing. I want one that fits the period and doesn't dumb down everyone in the courtyard. No more of Jia Zhangshi throwing tantrums, He Yuzhu acting like a lovesick puppy, or some mindless moral grandstanding in their defense. Even the TV series wasn't like that.

The book is good, but there shouldn't be so many spaces; listening to the book is very uncomfortable.
The content is alright, but could you please press the space bar less often? It sounds like a stuttering storyteller telling a story.
It's well-written, but there are a few minor issues. For example, the medical skills are inconsistent; the doctor is almost a miracle worker at first, but later, when treating Director Li, he seems closer to a national-level expert. Also, the paragraph breaks and some sentences have obvious dialectal elements, making them difficult to understand. However, overall, it's still a good courtyard novel. I've already added it to my favorites and recommended it. Keep it up, young man!
I won't comment on the content, but I just want to say that you should never listen to this book; the voice is stuttering and pausing.
Very good, another imaginative and unique story. The courtyard house novels I've read this year have all been of high quality. In previous years, I'd abandon eight out of ten books I read; this year, there are fewer completed ones.
Good, keep up the good work!
Lou Xiao'e's remarriage to Hong Kong seems inevitable. It would be cruel enough for a woman not to remarry; how could she possibly satisfy her emotional and physical needs after enduring over ten years of loneliness? It's better to go to Hong Kong together; staying in mainland China would be a waste of time. Time heals all wounds.
Well written, keep it up!
Well written. No harem or overpowered plot devices. While there is an extramarital affair, it happens before marriage. In those days, the public didn't report it, and the authorities didn't investigate. Forming cliques was very common. These two points alone surpass 90% of courtyard novels. Add to that the ability to be low-key, stay away from trouble, yet remain connected to the masses—a very clever way to remain hidden in the city—and it surpasses 95% of courtyard novels.
Putting aside whether this book is good or not, the whole courtyard has become a stutterer from listening to it! 😂😂🤦 The male lead is like a turtle; if you provoke him, he'll bark a few words, all bark and no bite, and then retreat back into his shell.
