Siheyuan: Don't Mess with Me, and We'll Each Go Our Own Way

Although I've only read 36 chapters, the protagonist's character is very fitting for that era. He's a lone wolf who doesn't howl, eliminating enemies who want to kill him with a single strike. He silently crushes the teeth of those who harmed his family or simply vanishes without a trace. In short: decisive in killing, yet deeply loyal and righteous.

This is a relatively rare book that properly develops a protagonist's cheat ability. In many historical fiction novels, protagonists with spatial scanning abilities only use their scanning to frame villains, scavenge, hunt, farm, etc. They also only use their spatial abilities—the all-powerful processing plant—for farming!

It's quite good; it's easily in the top 20 of Tomato's courtyard novels. The overall historical and policy rigor surpasses 99% of Tomato's other novels.

Let me give myself a pep talk: no hostility in the early stages. I'll start putting on a strong performance in the middle. No fishing or hunting during famine years—is repaying kindness in a male-oriented novel considered saintly? I hope no one accuses me of killing Japanese soldiers or reports me for it. I hope I can finish the outline of this book.

The author's research on historical periods is very detailed, the plot twists are excellent, and the main theme is "I won't offend others unless they offend me." 👍 The author also possesses a wealth of professional knowledge in car repair. A rare gem among books written in traditional courtyard houses, I give it five stars!

After reading this book, I read another one by the same author. How to put it? It's a good book, but... A bit dry, very dry. "Here comes the wife," it feels like they haven't even gotten to the point yet. The transition to the factory scene was a bit too fast. Control the plot a bit, and add more sex scenes! I loved it!

I've read up to chapter 37, so I'm giving this book five stars first! 😄 The author has really put their heart into it; all the policies, regulations, and rules are clearly explained, making for a very smooth reading experience. The author could also delve deeper into the qualifications needed to be a projectionist in the 1960s. 😄 This could be a wonderful, historically accurate courtyard novel! 👍

The beginning was alright, but things got so-so once we got to Hong Kong.

It's alright, but I came here for a historical romance, not a spy story 😅

First, let's look at the story setting, then the plot description. The story flows smoothly and doesn't drag, and the writing is quite good! 😄
