    Reader note

    Yi Zhonghai is a good person. There are no exaggerated comebacks, no melodramatic face-slapping moments; it's simply a down-to-earth story of daily life in a courtyard house. It depicts the everyday life of family members, the trivialities of neighbors, the warmth and coldness of human relationships inside and outside the courtyard, and the mundane routines of daily life. The writing style is gentle and relatable, allowing readers to slowly settle down and live their lives in the courtyard house alongside the protagonist, witnessing the small events in the neighborhood. It's suitable for readers who enjoy slow-paced, stable slice-of-life stories.

    Yi Zhonghai is often portrayed as a major villain, largely because he has no children and lacks a sense of security and support. In the courtyard house, he attempts to secure his "retirement security" through manipulation and scheming, almost to the point of madness. However, when he has children and a clear sense of security in his old age and emotional support, his mindset changes. He becomes less obsessive and shows more paternal tenderness and a sense of certainty about the future, making him a more three-dimensional and vivid character.
