A Coming-of-Age Story in Siheyuan

[Entirely handwritten, no AI]

[As usual, no golden finger and no pocket dimension]

A slice-of-life story at its heart. The protagonist isn't invincible, this isn't a power fantasy, and there are no life-or-death battles;

The story strives to stay true to the TV series and its historical setting;

People in that era had limited knowledge, but that didn't make them fools. I'll do my best to portray them faithfully;

The young Lin Muyao has it rough. Other people transmigrate with a System or a golden finger from heaven, but he has neither;

What's more, he's an eight-year-old brat. At least there's plenty of time. How about raising him?

But how should I choose? Who should I choose?
