Something like "Nirvana in Fire" and the like.
Looking for Courtyard Fics With Smart Characters, No Idiotic Stories
Looking for books similar to "Experiencing the Spirit of the Times in a Siheyuan". There are more and more siheyuan novels these days, and they're getting more and more brainless. Give me something with some actual thought behind it, not a power fantasy.

Siheyuan Stories Where the Protagonist Doesn't Get Involved in the Plot and Just Watches from the Sidelines

Looking for Courtyard House Stories with No Forced Dumbing Down and a Historically Authentic Setting
Looking for books similar to Four-Hearts Courtyard: Kill to Stop Killing. I want one that fits the period and doesn't dumb down everyone in the courtyard. 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.

This is the most relaxed courtyard house I've ever seen. There's not so much hostility, so much scheming, so many outrageous characters, and no superhuman abilities. It retains the unique spirit of the workers of that era, their dedication, the camaraderie of childhood friends, and the mutual assistance among neighbors.
While some minor details weren't explored in great detail, such as the subplot involving the children of high-ranking officials, the overall storyline is quite good. There aren't any major flaws, and the endings for each character are decent and logical. It's quite impressive for a beginner.
This is well-written; unlike some authors who depict courtyard houses as dens of dragons and tigers, filled with vulgar and obscene content, this one is quite different. Author, keep up the good work and update more often!
To be honest, I finished reading it. Although there are some flaws, the author mentioned it's their first book, so I can understand. The overall feeling of the book is rather bland, but I finished it gradually. The courtyard house is quite good overall, not too violent, and even the Jia family members seem like normal people. My rating of 7 or 8 out of 10 is fair; it's worth reading. My suggestion is to leave a comment criticizing the author on any flawed parts 😄😄, the rest is readable.
This was acceptable... Although there was no animal cruelty... It was still alright. The younger generation shouldn't follow the old path... Only then will life be worthwhile.
Not bad, not bad, it looks great. It's the first time I've seen one that's not for a purchasing agent; it's very novel.
I personally think it's good. I like things to be simple and understated, and it's not as chaotic as some other writings, so it's still within an acceptable range.
It's very well written. The writing flows smoothly and it's a pleasure to read. Please don't abandon this project!
This is my first time writing, so please be gentle with your comments.
I finished reading this book and it was pretty good! There weren't many disgusting things! The characters' way of handling things was also good! There wasn't a lot of money-grabbing behavior! And I didn't see the system pushing things too far! The only downside was the somewhat rushed ending! Overall, if the ending had been a bit like "a dream," the ending would have been more satisfying. 🤭 [Learned something][Learned something][Learned something]
