    Reader note

    "Let Me Rely on My Parents Yi Zhonghai? I'll Work Hard Instead" breaks away from the typical "face-slapping" trope, creating a unique and exhilarating reading experience with its core message of self-reliance and a powerful cheat system. The protagonist, Yi Hongjun, is a refreshing character. Transmigrated into the body of an orphaned boy, he seeks refuge with his uncle Yi Zhonghai in Beijing. He could easily rely on his uncle's status as his only relative and live off his parents, but he chooses to work hard on his own. This "no dependence, no complacency" attitude is particularly rare in the complex environment of the courtyard house. His cheat system, the "strongest learning system," is the finishing touch—master-level carpentry skills, a vast secret realm, and gene enhancement fluid—a fully-equipped starting package. Even more impressive is the ability to quickly unlock various skills through learning, from metalworking to general knowledge; as long as one is willing to learn, one can master them, perfectly aligning with the core theme of "hard work," making his path to success both reasonable and satisfying. The plot is fast-paced, combining exhilarating moments with heartwarming moments. When Yi Hongjun first arrived at the courtyard house, he didn't rush into conflict. Instead, he won the genuine affection of Yi Zhonghai and his wife with his sincerity, securing a stable place to stay. After the system was activated, he didn't become obsessed with his cheat-like abilities but immediately planned his future—attending school to get into a vocational school while also using his skills to earn money and improve himself. Watching him rise to prominence with his master-level carpentry skills, quickly master fitter knowledge through the learning system, and solve resource problems using the secret realm of mountains and rivers, every step of his growth is solid and satisfying. His familial interactions with Yi Zhonghai and his wife, and his open and honest relationship with Sha Zhu, add warmth to the story and break the stereotype of the courtyard house as a place of "everyone scheming." The book also vividly portrays the classic characters of the courtyard house. Yi Zhonghai is no longer simply a "scheming old man," but an elder who opens his heart to his nephew; characters like Jia Zhangshi and Yan Bugui retain their individual personality traits without being overly demonized, making the neighborly relations in the courtyard house feel more realistic. Especially noteworthy are Yi Hongjun's interactions with these characters—handsome yet humble, reasonable yet measured—who upholds his principles while demonstrating wisdom, avoiding a purely confrontational approach and adding a touch of warmth to the story. What's most captivating is the positive energy the story conveys. Yi Hongjun proves through his actions that even with a cheat system, hard work remains the core of success. He doesn't crave immediate comfort but focuses on the long term, constantly improving himself through learning. He aims to improve his own life, repay the kindness of his elders, and even contribute his skills to the country. This "the harder you work, the luckier you get" premise aligns with the logic of a wish-fulfillment novel while conveying positive values, making for a satisfying and inspiring read. In short, this is a masterpiece of a courtyard house story that combines exhilaration, warmth, and inspiration. It offers the exhilarating success brought by a cheat system, the realistic portrayal of life within a historical context, and the core message of "relying on oneself." Yi Hongjun's story teaches us that no matter the circumstances, as long as one is grateful and works diligently, one can carve out their own path. For readers who enjoy courtyard house themes and inspirational stories, this is definitely a treasure that you can't miss!
