Siheyuan: The Fool Awakens and Brutally Crushes Every Beast in the Courtyard

When Niu Dazhuang woke up, he had transmigrated into the world of Love in the Courtyard, as a martyr's orphan whom anyone could bully and beat until he was stupid.

For the past five years, the original owner had been beaten into a fool by Jia Dongxu. The three neighborhood elders, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Bugui, had joined forces with the Jia family to divide up his father's compensation and savings, and seize his job. Qin Huairu and her children had been stealing and skimming his food and supplies for years. The entire courtyard had been living off him.

He would no longer be a fool at everyone's mercy. He would tear off the hypocritical masks worn by the courtyard residents. He took Yi Zhonghai to task, beat up Silly Zhu, laid clever traps to deal with Old Lady Long, exposed Jia Zhangshi's theft, and tore apart Qin Huairu's greedy schemes.

He reclaimed the job that had been stolen from him and recovered the inheritance they'd divided up. He stood his ground against the neighborhood faction that wanted to have him committed to a mental hospital.

Facing a courtyard full of self-serving, selfish, hypocritical neighbors, Niu Dazhuang had strength and the System on his side. Carefully, one step at a time, he settled accounts with these bloodsuckers and made a life for himself in the 1960s, on his own terms.
