Siheyuan: He Yuzhu, Skilled in Both Letters and Arms

In this life, He Yuzhu was nothing but a sucker, drained dry by everyone in the courtyard. He gave them his whole heart and bankrupted himself for them, only to be deceived by Qin Huairu and manipulated by Bang Geng. In the end, his legs were broken, and he was left to curl up beneath a bridge and be mauled to death by wild dogs. As he lay dying, blood soaking his clothes, it stained the little family heirloom Lou Xiao'e had given him years ago, which he had kept hidden close to his body where no one could find it. No one could have guessed that this unremarkable trinket would suddenly awaken when nourished by his lifeblood, opening a mysterious pocket dimension! Its power defied heaven itself, sending him back through time to be reborn just as his mother became pregnant with his younger sister, He Yushui. In his previous life, his mother died in childbirth. It was the greatest regret and sorrow of his life. In this life, He Yuzhu used the spiritual spring in his pocket dimension to carefully nurse his mother back to health and protect her throughout the pregnancy. He changed the tragedy completely, helping her safely give birth to Yushui and live a healthy life until she passed peacefully of old age, leaving the family whole and happy. Having lived again, he saw these people for who they really were: Yi Zhonghai talked endlessly about benevolence and righteousness, but only wanted to control him and use him as a free caregiver in old age. Qin Huairu’s family was insatiably greedy, wanting nothing but to cling to him and suck him dry. Granny Long and the other neighbors were all calculating, looking only to take advantage of him. This time, He Yuzhu’s heart was as hard as iron. He looked coldly over the courtyard’s scheming fiends. He kept his distance from the Jia family, called out hypocrisy, and refused to be anyone’s sucker! With the pocket dimension to rely on, he could study, build a career, and make a fortune through knowledge; He could also build his strength, protect his family, and command respect, excelling in both letters and arms. He would cherish his loved ones and build a stable life of his own, making those who truly cared for him happy
