Reborn in the Siheyuan: A Three-Year-Old Beloved by All Turns the Tables with Her Pocket Dimension

[Cute Kid's Comeback + Space Farming + Putting Scoundrels in Their Place + Growing Up in a Bygone Era]

At 28, an overworked office drone drops dead and wakes up as Su Wanwan, a three-year-old orphan in a Beijing courtyard in 1962. Her parents are gone, and she has to contend with Banggeng, who steals anything that isn't nailed down, as well as Yi Zhonghai, who's scheming for someone to support him in his old age, and the slick, status-obsessed Xu Damao. The only one on her side is her young uncle, Su Jianguo, who grits his teeth and raises her. Starving until her ribs nearly show, she gains access to a Fortune Space: its Spirit Spring nourishes rich black soil, and its storeroom is piled high with fresh grain. Half a piece of peach pastry gets her a spoonful of lard from Silly Zhu, and a basket of potatoes saves the whole village of neighbors waiting for relief supplies. From a vegetable patch by the courtyard wall to the black soil of the Northeast, she uses her adorable toddler looks and adult mind to turn a run-down courtyard into a legend that spans eras. The male lead is Lu Beichen, the genius boy next door who lives in the north wing. They grow up together from age five to a hundred: one farms to provide for the family, the other studies to serve the country. She doesn't alter the broad course of history, only saves those worth saving. This is a heartwarming, healing story with a heroine who outsmarts everyone. The old locust tree in the courtyard knows that this little girl was never just growing vegetables. She was planting everyone's livelihood into the soil, handful by handful, then gathering it up and placing it back in their hands.
