Siheyuan: I Snatched Lou Xiao'e, and I’ll Live Off Her Without Shame

[Siheyuan courtyard + transmigration + precognition + putting the ‘beasts’ in their place + turbulent times + one heroine]

Chen Ping'an transmigrates to a siheyuan courtyard in 1956 and awakens a golden finger that lets him foresee the future.

By accurately catching glimpses of what lies ahead, he happens to save Lou Bancheng's wife from a criminal's blade.

Grateful for the rescue, and impressed by Chen's spotless background, the tycoon Lou Bancheng offers him the hand of his daughter, Lou Xiao'e.

Chen Ping'an brings his beautiful, wealthy wife back to the dilapidated courtyard and settles into his own comfortable life, making no effort to keep a low profile.

Now all the ‘beasts’ in the courtyard are green with envy!

Xu Damao tries to steal the match but gets beaten up instead, grinding his teeth in fury;

Silly Zhu watches the woman of his dreams marry someone else and pounds his chest in despair;

Jia Zhangshi tries to take advantage of him, but he publicly teaches her a lesson, leaving her weak in the knees.

Chen Ping'an isn't the least bit fazed by the scheming and envy of the courtyard's beasts.

On the surface, he's a low-ranking officer in the security department, promoted through his father-in-law's connections. In secret, he uses his “vision of the future” to outclass his rivals at every turn.

He even helps the Lou family quietly overcome their difficulties and avoid the storm that is about to come.

In an era full of schemes, Chen Ping'an holds Lou Xiao'e's hand, showers her with affection, and keeps every last ‘beast’ firmly in line!
