In 1952, during the bitter chill of early spring, He Yuzhu freezes to death beneath an overpass, then opens his eyes and returns to the age of sixteen.
In his previous life, he spent his whole life as a fool, raised the ungrateful Banggeng, and fed the hungry wolves of the entire courtyard. In the end, they kicked him out, and not even his bones were left behind.
Reborn, he has an immortal cultivation technique in hand and Yi Zhonghai's blackmail-worthy secret tucked at his waist. Now he's the one holding Yi Zhonghai's leash, and he'll milk him for the rest of his life.
Silly Zhu? That man was already dead and gone in his previous life!
In this life, He Yuzhu will live for himself!
First, he bleeds the hypocritical First Master Yi Zhonghai dry, forcing him to hand over his money and become a free laborer for the family.
Then he kicks down the Jia family's door, putting an end to their parasitic ways and leaving the greedy Jia Zhangshi to fend for herself and meet a miserable end.
He won't sweat away his days at the steel mill. Instead, he'll return to school, skipping from the first year of middle school straight to the third, and use his diploma to open the gates to a new era.
In his spare time, he forges iron, carves wood, and grows spirit rice to nourish his body.
While everyone in the Siheyuan is scheming over a few yuan in wages, He Yuzhu stands atop the courtyard wall, looking out over a Beijing changing by the day, his mind set on the path to immortality.
In this life, he won't just live well. He'll live long, too!
Mark it.
Familiar eyes revenge
Not as tough as in my previous life
Many places are in a mess. There have been no food stamps for 50 years, no first master, no work grade, and random writing.
