Siheyuan: I'm No Silly Zhu

He Yuzhu lived to the age of sixty-five, becoming the biggest joke in the courtyard. His cooking fed a whole yard of parasites: Qin Huairu's family mooched off him, the Third Master schemed against him, the First Master treated him as a retirement plan, and his own father, He Daqing, ran off with all the family valuables and White Widow, leaving him and his sister to fend for themselves.

On his deathbed, he regretted it bitterly. If he got another life, he would never again be Silly Zhu, a fool anyone could push around!

When he opened his eyes, he was reborn before the founding of the nation. His father was urging him to sell steamed buns, the “Silly Zhu” label had yet to stick, and he had even bound himself to the [Food Treasure Copy Space System]! He could copy dishes according to how delicious they were, and copy gold, silver, and jewels once. With his golden finger in hand, He Yuzhu finally had some backbone!

From then on, he stopped being softhearted and refused to be the courtyard's cash cow. Qin Huairu wanted to mooch a meal? Not a chance! Yi Zhonghai schemed to have him support him in old age? He exposed him on the spot! White Widow tried to seduce his father? He put an end to it immediately! He forced He Daqing to take responsibility for raising his children, found a dependable stepmother to hold the family together, and made a fortune with the System.

In love, he first grew close to the gentle Ran Qiuyue, then later walked alongside the bold and spirited Lou Xiao'e. Xu Damao mocked him? He beat him until he backed down! Anyone who schemed against him would pay the price!

He Yuzhu swept his gaze coldly over the demons and monsters in the whole courtyard. “From now on, my name is He Yuzhu, not Silly Zhu, someone anyone can push around! In this life, I'll use the System to live well, protect my family, and become someone you can never hope to measure up to!”
