Fellow Courtyard Novel Fans, Recommend Some Books That Actually Make Sense
Honestly, those courtyard-house novels use the period as a thin cover for an alternate-history setting. They're not really about what happened in the courtyard itself. A lot of the writers still haven't grasped the point.

Based on current information, it appears to be written by a woman. The entire piece uses phrases like "Brother, no, please," which is typical of female writing. The author incorporates her usual speaking style. However, the plot is quite good, not too drawn out, and the dialogue flows smoothly. They're starting to talk about serving the country again. I hate this kind of thing in novels.
The beginning was good, but Jia Zhangshi's departure was too quick, which made the author feel like he was padding the plot. The courtyard house can't be without Jia Zhangshi, just like the West can't be without Jerusalem. 😆😆😆😆
So far, this is a book that really suits my taste. It starts with a courtyard house, but doesn't get bogged down in internal conflicts. It quickly and decisively deals with Long Yi and the others, then forges a new path that resonates with the times. The sense of period setting is also good; it's exactly the kind of courtyard house story I've been looking for. It started strong but ended weakly!
I enjoyed reading this book. The author truly grasped the historical context and the people of that era, offering a fresh perspective on the story of (Silly Zhu)'s triumphant rise in the courtyard! No matter the circumstances, (General Zhang)'s admonition to (Little Six) is true: the world isn't just about fighting and killing, it's about human relationships and social dynamics! Understanding this deeply is key to maintaining peace and order in your region!
Amazing! Super beautiful and awesome! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍…
Five stars! 👍👍👍 Excellent! No dragging things out. First, eliminate Jia Hou's filth, then take down the old deaf man and Yi Zhonghai all at once. The progression is gradual, organized, and rational. There aren't many plot twists, the story is clearly narrated, and there's not much violence.
The author must have had many years of writing experience; their writing skills are solid, their word choice is refined, the story unfolds logically, and the plot development fits the characteristics of the era. The male protagonist is resolute and decisive, acting swiftly and efficiently, dealing with difficult characters without hesitation.
Not bad. It's a different kind of life; I got into a vocational school and studied mechanics 🤦 These days, so many novels about courtyard houses don't even have a table of contents; they're just copied and pasted, updating dozens of chapters a day. At least this book is written by the author himself, and the content is pretty good, so I'm giving it five stars.
Once someone has the idea of moving out of the courtyard house, the entire scope of the book is basically set. I've always believed that in time-travel novels, the time traveler is the protagonist. Everyone else is just used as a plot device or foil. I'm looking forward to the rest of the story.
Yi Zhonghai, Zhuzi, I've made a decision for you. Half of the money you earn must be given to the Jia family. Your Dongxu family has a hard life. You can't be too selfish and only care about yourself. You must unite with your neighbors.
