Synopsis

[Reborn] [Space] [Period] [No hostility] [Farming] [Providing for the family] [Showing off in public] [Siheyuan] [Mystery-solving] [Face-slapping] [Antiques]

He Zhenhua is an unlucky guy who transmigrates into 1959 after a car accident, becoming the eldest son of the He family in Nanluoguxiang, so hungry he's skin and bones. The original owner died of illness and starvation, leaving the body to him. Starting on hell mode? No need to panic: he comes with a portable space, ten mu of black soil, and the ability to retrieve objects from a distance! He starts by putting his two opportunistic younger brothers in their place for stealing the food that saved his life. Then he “catches” fish out of thin air, leaving Silly Zhu stunned, and even manages to trade for more life-saving food coupons. While other families tighten their belts, the He family quietly improves their meals. See how He Zhenhua, a modern soul in an era of scarcity, uses his incredible space and adult wisdom to farm quietly, make money without drawing attention, and turn the petty squabbles of the Siheyuan into one hilarious domestic comedy after another. Silly Zhu? He's the He family's chef-in-training!
