Siheyuan: Dumping Qin Huairu and Marrying a Professor

After transmigrating into the 1960s world of Love in the Courtyard, Li Xiangdong is rejected by Qin Huairu from the start because she thinks he is poor. She turns around and decides to marry Jia Dongxu instead.

Li Xiangdong sneers and promptly marries the woman his parents had betrothed him to before he was born: a cool, aloof professor who has just returned from overseas! The courtyard's busybodies assume that young Li Xiangdong has married a bookish, useless beauty, and prepare to join forces to bully him and take advantage of him.

Who could have guessed that the professor not only has powerful connections, but is also a specially appointed senior engineer at the steel mill?

Seeing Li Xiangdong's family eat braised pork at every meal, his beautiful wife in his arms, and his ability to control the mill's personnel decisions, Jia Dongxu is so jealous he nearly vomits blood. Silly Zhu is green with envy, and all the courtyard's schemers are left dumbstruck!
