Synopsis

Yang Song is both lucky and unlucky. Born in the countryside, he grew up in a poor household where hardship filled every corner. As far back as he can remember, his family was always arguing. Other families spent the New Year happily, setting aside their troubles for those few days if need be. But the Yang family was different. For over twenty years, they never had a peaceful New Year. As a result, Yang Song became withdrawn. Knowing what his family was like, he avoided many things, and grew into a rather dull person. Fortunately, the friends he made were all good people, and his master treated him like his own son. Yang Song was down-to-earth, moving forward one step at a time. He bought a house in the county seat and didn't marry until he was in his thirties. At last, it seemed he'd made it through the hard times. As the old saying goes, a hemp rope always snaps at its thinnest point, and misfortune always finds the most hard-pressed. His wife was no good. While Yang Song was away working to earn money, someone seduced her, and she left him with their three-year-old child. Yang Song had no choice but to accept reality and raise the child properly. He often tried to drown his sorrows in alcohol. One night, after getting drunk, he somehow transmigrated into Love in the Courtyard. Perhaps he'd been suppressing himself for too long. In this unfamiliar place, Yang Song finally let loose. Before, he had too many concerns. Now, he didn't want to keep holding back. He wanted to live for himself, and live a life worth remembering! So he got Silly Zhu sent to a labor camp, even at the cost of offending the neighborhood committee director and everyone in the courtyard.

Siheyuan Stories, Must Be Top Quality

I've watched the TV drama and read a lot of the novel too. I'm looking for something where the protagonist isn't so full of rage, and treats people calmly but with principles. Every character should have both good and bad in them. There's no need to force the consequences of one thing onto what came before. The plot should fit the era.

No going to the countryside, no going to the countryside, no going to the countryside. I'm saying it three times because it's important!!! Working in the city is great. 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...
