Silly Zhu Reborn on a Snowy Night in 1951

The bitter cold of winter freezes him to death beneath a bridge. He Yuzhu opens his eyes, carrying a lifetime's worth of regrets, only to find himself reborn in the courtyard compound of 1951. His father has just abandoned the family and run off, his little sister Yushui is still young, and the so-called "family" who devoured his life have yet to sink their claws deep into it. This time, he puts away his foolish kindness. His eyes hold only cold clarity.

A spiritual spring space awakens with his rebirth, stocked with rice, flour, cooking oil, grain, medicinal herbs, and cloth. It gives him the means to protect his sister and the capital to turn his life around. First, he cuts ties with the false affection of Deaf Granny, the schemes of Yi Zhonghai, and the Jia family's parasitic hold. No matter how sweetly Qin Huairu speaks, he only meets her with a cold stare. Yushui, however, is cherished like a treasure. She never lacks new clothes or delicious food, and he vows to keep her safe and carefree for the rest of her life.

Only Xu Damao leaves him conflicted. He hates the repeated plots and bitter rivalry of their past life, yet he also remembers that when his own remains were nowhere to be found, this old enemy bought a cheap coffin and gave him a proper burial. With their grudges and gratitude tangled together, he looks at the young Xu Damao and ultimately stops short of killing him. When Xu Damao provokes him, he hits back hard, but when the man falls on hard times, he quietly leaves him a little room to recover.

With supplies stored in his space and a living earned through his cooking, Silly Zhu is no longer a pushover for others to exploit. In this life, he wants only to protect his sister, build a brilliant future, and settle accounts with everyone who wronged or schemed against him!
