Siheyuan: He Yuzhu’s Cheat-Code Life

With a magical mirror that could take him to and from the year 2025, He Yuzhu saw the tragic end of his previous life: the Jia family had drained him dry, and Yi Zhonghai had schemed against him.

Sent back to 1958, he was determined to rewrite his fate once and for all.

Armed with secret seasonings and recipes brought back from the future, he made a simple cold vegetable dish that took the whole factory by storm and won the favor of its leaders.

Drawing on his knowledge of the future, he avoided moral blackmail, mended his relationships with his brothers, and proceeded cautiously, step by step.

Using supplies from both worlds, He Yuzhu carved out a place for himself amid the constraints of the planned economy.
