Siheyuan: He Yuzhu's Ordinary Life

He Yuzhu transmigrates into the world of Love in the Courtyard in 1951. A resident of the Beastly Courtyard, he is already seventeen and working as an apprentice in the cafeteria at the Red Star Steel Mill.

He Yuzhu experiences the changing lives, human stories, and social landscape of the courtyard from the 1960s through the 1990s.

All he wants is to live a quiet life until the opportunities of the era arrive, then work hard to give himself a somewhat comfortable life. Who could have expected a bunch of beasts to keep tripping him up?

He Yuzhu has a System, but it doesn’t make him invincible. This story blends elements of Love in the Courtyard and more. As the tides of the era begin to rise, whether it’s the moral blackmail of First Master Yi Zhonghai, Second Master Liu Haizhong, Third Master Yan Bugui, Deaf Granny, Jia Zhangshi, Xu Damao, Qin Huairu, Bang Geng, or anyone else, whoever messes with him gets what’s coming to them.

He Yuzhu may seem tough and sharp-tongued, but he is kindhearted and loyal. He gives plenty of help to families in genuine need, and grows more mature through his relationships with his neighbors, learning to shoulder the responsibilities of a man.

He boards the train of the times. Carried by the winds of reform and opening up in this era of opportunity, he works hard to soar to success and ultimately lives happily with the woman he loves.
