Siheyuan: I Quit My Job to Study, and Now I’m a Spendthrift?

Li Weiguo transmigrates into Love in the Courtyard and becomes an ordinary resident. In his predecessor’s family, Li Weiguo’s father is a seventh-grade fitter who earns over seventy yuan a month. Li Weiguo spends his days living off his father and enjoying himself, squandering the family’s savings. Now the family is dirt poor, and after an accident at his father’s factory, Li Weiguo has the chance to inherit his fitter position. But Li Weiguo resolutely decides to go to school. Everyone in the Siheyuan criticizes him behind his back, convinced he’s a hopeless spendthrift. But Li Weiguo, who holds two doctorates, gets into a technical secondary school. After graduating, he works at the supply and marketing cooperative, then switches to a job at a steel mill. His life gets better and better. Everyone in the courtyard regrets their judgment. “Is this really the same spendthrift as before?”
