Siheyuan: At the Start-of-Story Courtyard Meeting, I Cut Ties with the Jia Family

This story is low on angst and leans toward warm, everyday life.

After transmigrating to a courtyard house in 1958, Li Weiguo becomes the orphan of a fallen soldier. From the start, he's confronted by the Jia family trying to extort him and Yi Zhonghai using moral pressure to manipulate him.

In an era of shortages and restless hearts, Li Weiguo awakens a portable space where time flows ten times faster. He not only has tens of thousands of acres of fertile land and herds of livestock, but also possesses peerless medical skills that unite Eastern and Western medicine, gained through what he learned in his previous life.

If you show me no kindness, don't expect any from me! He calls a courtyard-wide meeting right from the start, publicly tears off the mask, and cuts ties for good with the parasitic Jia family!

When Yi Zhonghai puts on a show of “selfless care for the elderly,” Li Weiguo exposes his hypocrisy and ruins his reputation;

When Liu Haizhong acts like an official-obsessed busybody, Li Weiguo crushes him with a higher-level strategy and leaves him squirming;

When Yan Bugui tries to be clever with his schemes, Li Weiguo turns the tables and leaves him with nothing!

With the favor of a single meal, he wins over Silly Zhu, the courtyard's resident powerhouse, and makes him a vanguard who strikes wherever he's pointed;

With a few petty gains, he keeps the penny-pinching Yan Bugui on a leash and turns him into a human shield on the front lines;

With a few invisible slaps, he jolts the old deaf woman out of her imperial fantasies and forces her to hand over her property.

While the courtyard's squabblers are still scheming over a pound of cornmeal, Li Weiguo has already moved into a mansion with its own heating, is eating specially supplied game, and is living through this turbulent era with his sister's family as a legend everyone envies!
