Siheyuan: Under the Zhengyang Gate, It Is Transformed into Jia Qiangguo

In the winter of 1955, there was heavy snowfall in Zhengyangmen Hutong. Eighteen-year-old Jia Qiangguo was pacing against the wind, his eyes not matching those of the gray cotton-padded jacket. In his previous life, he was divorced at the age of thirty-five and stayed in the family restaurant of the royal chef. During the epidemic, I binge-watched the drama for two nights in a row, exhausted to death—and woke up as a seventeen-year-old orphan. Life is hard.
