If You Like Quick Transmigration Stories Set in a Beijing Courtyard Compound
I'd like something similar to Life After Life in the Siheyuan. Set around Sha Zhu and the courtyard, it's both redemption and making amends for regrets. Who doesn't have regrets in life?

Looking for a Siheyuan Story Where Silly Zhu Is Reborn. No Transmigration, It Has to Be Silly Zhu Himself
In the Four-Sided Courtyard, He Yuzhu lived almost his entire life without wronging anyone. But there was one person he let down. I'm curious: if he were reborn, what would he do? There are plenty of books about He Yuzhu being reborn, but they're all about transmigrators being reborn. I really want to read one where He Yuzhu himself is reborn.

It's incredibly delicious! Let's all share! The author's values have blown me away! The first few chapters were enough to fill me up! The next dozen or so chapters were eye-opening! As a transmigrator who possessed Sha Zhu's body, Yu Shui was born an ingrate! No matter how she was educated! No matter how she was treated! She was just an ingrate! I just didn't like her! So she became a burden!
The author writes very well, but is a bit harsh on Yu Shui. Yu Shui is still young, only seven years old, and her worldview hasn't even formed yet. Whether she's good or bad needs to be taught. Nezha said that becoming a god or a demon is up to oneself, and this "upon" is based on our own growth experiences. In the original drama, He Yu Shui was quite sensible and kind-hearted.
I've read all of your works, and they suit my taste. Many comments say you're too harsh on Yu Shui. I thought you'd beat her every day, but it turns out you're pampering her with good food and drink. Is that harsh? Is it just that you don't provide emotional support, don't coax her, and don't feed her lavish meals? In the original story, Qin seduced Sha Zhu by cleaning the house and doing laundry.
Ask a question: My son, Yushui, was 7 years old and slept alone in a room without a kang (heated brick bed) or a heater. It's a miracle he didn't freeze to death in Beijing's cold winter! 😄 Normally, he would sleep in a room with a heater with his brother and other family members. Even if they didn't share a bed, they would still sleep in the same room to reflect the reality of the 1950s. Do you agree? 🤭
It's not bad, and the protagonist has a significant advantage, but it's not really a "feel-good" story. The weak characters constantly cause trouble to pad the word count, leaving the protagonist mostly in a passive defensive position. They only all die near the end, leaving a sense of frustration until the very end.
The silly character in this novel is a real childless person 😂😂
I've finished reading it. This is the first time I've ever finished a fanfiction about a courtyard house. I don't know if it will still be interesting, but overall it was readable. I haven't read the original novel either. Judging from the plot, the people in the courtyard house can't be simply categorized as villains; they're practically superhuman.
OKnice
Personally, I think it's quite good. It has a gentle, everyday feel, with the main characters mostly observing from the sidelines and not interfering with the plot. It doesn't feature the kind of story where the protagonist suddenly becomes incredibly powerful after time-traveling.
I love it! I adore this author! I love almost everything they write! ① The writing style is fluent. ②The main characters are basically cold-hearted and have no moral burden. So it's so smooth and not tiring to watch! I love it!
