Synopsis

I've read a lot of novels about the courtyard. Nine out of ten are brainless wish-fulfillment stories, some even turning the characters into outright monsters. They're all churned out like products on an assembly line.

I've written one where everyone gets along, so feel free to share your thoughts. The protagonist transmigrates early and starts at the top. By that, I mean he is at the top among the people in the courtyard. He has a pocket dimension but no System. He does what he can for the country and, along the way, changes the fates of the courtyard residents. I don't like Xu Damao, but I won't give him a miserable ending either. This is all handmade, and I'm making it up as I go. There's no outline, so updates may be slow.

Otherwise, so many people wouldn't refuse to go to the countryside and do hard labor. Preferably no CP. The male lead can have male and female friends, but not in the main story...

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.
