Siheyuan: Lou Xiao'e Refuses to Be a Sucker

After waking from a deep sleep, Lin Wei, a modern-day office drone, finds herself as Lou Xiao'e from Love in the Courtyard, the woman Xu Damao duped and the people in the courtyard schemed against, leaving her with a broken family and a shattered life. Looking at Xu Damao, all smooth talk and sly smiles; Qin Huairu, pretending not to understand what she knows perfectly well; Jia Zhangshi, whose schemes are so loud you can practically hear her counting the money; and the three uncles, each with their own agenda... Lin Wei, no, Lou Xiao'e now, clenches her fists. Her last life was a miserable one. This time, she refuses to be anyone's fool! Xu Damao wants the Lou family to be his personal ATM? “You deal with your own problems. What kind of man lives off his wife?” Qin Huairu comes begging for food again? “We barely have enough as it is, and my mother needs it to build up her strength. Why don't you ask the First Uncle to settle this?” Jia Zhangshi wants to take advantage and pick a fight? “You can't go around saying things like that, Auntie. People will think you're bullying the new bride!” With a modern woman's clear-eyed sense, and the dignity of a capitalist's daughter to uphold, she carefully navigates the quagmire of the Siheyuan. She'll protect her parents, build up her strength, dump the scumbag, and steer clear of every trap in the original story! As for the courtyard's troublemakers? Anyone who thinks they can fleece Lou Xiao'e had better find out what she's capable of first. She's had enough of being a sucker!
