Zhang Shaoqiang, a modern expert in integrated Chinese and Western medicine, transmigrates to 1950 and becomes the young He Yuzhu, before the whole courtyard has a chance to exploit him.
With the System's help, his medical skills become peerless, and everyone respectfully calls him a miracle doctor.
He Yuzhu gets ahead of the competition and marries Qin Huairu, helping her get a job at the subdistrict women's federation and rise through the ranks.
Jia Zhangshi throws tantrums and rolls on the ground, Yi Zhonghai uses morality to blackmail people, Xu Damao schemes behind everyone's backs, and Yan Bugui takes advantage of every situation... The courtyard is full of twisted-minded villains, one after another.
While others get into shouting matches, my wife and I have our own clever solutions!
I'm a miracle doctor with prescriptions and remedies at my fingertips. I can cure illnesses, and I can also treat the greedy, lazy, and crooked ways of our neighbors.
She's a certified women's federation official. She mediates by the rules, issues written reprimands, and makes public criticisms, using policies and regulations to keep the worst offenders in check.
We support each other as a couple, and both rise through the ranks in the system. We don't rely on brute force or shouting matches. We use a mix of firmness and flexibility to deal with the courtyard's villains and rewrite the miserable fate He Yuzhu and Qin Huairu suffered in the original drama!
A few promises to put your mind at ease:
No abuse of the protagonist, no frustrating setbacks, and no saintly do-gooders. The Jia family, Yi Zhonghai, Xu Damao, and the other troublemakers will never be allowed to take advantage of us over and over.
The heroine is independent and strong, not blinded by love. The hero is a compassionate doctor with principles, not a pushover, and he knows how to repay kindness and settle scores.
The original's tragic plot is out. It's a steady rise from start to finish, with satisfying success in both career and family.
The article is logically sound and doesn't feel simplistic, which is rare. Having grown accustomed to stories of courtyard houses from the 1960s, starting in 1950 with Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu's marriage completely destroys the original storyline, creating a entirely new narrative.
It's a pretty good book.
Of 100 authors of courtyard house stories, 99 are abnormal. You are the normal one. It's a pity it's too short; the ending is too abrupt. It's so rare to see a courtyard house story written by a normal person.
