Chen Feng transmigrates into a courtyard house, where he’s cheated by Deaf Old Madam from the start. He retaliates by becoming a doctor who charges outrageously:
A cold costs three jin of grain coupons, rheumatism means tearing down a roof beam, and when he treats Qin Huairu’s menstrual problems, Jia Dongxu has to sell blood to pay the bill!
"Your condition requires a century-old ginseng root to keep you alive." Chen Feng points at Deaf Old Madam’s blood pressure medication and sneers. "What a coincidence, there’s an old ginseng root from the Republic of China era inside your grandfather clock!"
Three years later, Deaf Old Madam squats by the stove, gnawing on a steamed bun and crying, "I regret it! I should’ve let Silly Zhu marry Qin Huairu!" Meanwhile, Yi Zhonghai squats in the outhouse doing the math, only to discover that the entire courtyard’s savings combined could barely buy one of Chen Feng’s silver needles!
