Siheyuan: A Life of Leisure in Old Age

(No hostility, no bashing the original, just watching the drama unfold.)

Peng Yuyang works overtime for three days straight and dies at her desk. When she wakes up, she finds herself in a famous courtyard compound.

Thinking of the savings she hadn’t spent and the newly renovated home she hadn’t even had a chance to move into, she is overwhelmed with grief.

The hardest thing to accept is that she has become the most deeply hidden villain in the compound: Old Lady Deaf.

She’d always dreamed of retiring early, but has Heaven really turned her from a middle-aged woman into a frail old lady overnight as a joke?

Luckily, she’s been given a pocket dimension, enough to keep herself fed in this difficult era.

This time, Old Lady Deaf won’t be the troublemaker from the original story. She’ll simply watch from the sidelines and stay out of it.
