Synopsis

[Farming + period setting + one heroine] Sun Dawei woke up to find himself transmigrated to an era of scarcity, where food and clothing were hard to come by. After struggling through a miserable stretch, he learned from his grandmother on her deathbed that he had a paternal aunt named Tan Cuihua. Having watched Love in the Courtyard, Sun Dawei wondered if she was the same Aunt Yi with that name, which would make his uncle Yi Zhonghai.

Orphaned at a young age, Sun Dawei took care of his grandmother’s funeral and immediately packed up to move in with Yi Zhonghai and Aunt Yi.

His uncle was a Level Eight lathe worker earning ninety-nine yuan a month. His aunt and uncle had no children, so they treated Sun Dawei like their own son as soon as he arrived. They helped him buy the three big items and a radio for his wedding, and even gave him spending money...

Sun Dawei: Living off your elders is the best!
