Apart from the third uncle, who wasn't a bad person, everyone else in the courtyard was truly a bad person. The deaf old lady, the old man, and the simple-minded Zhu form an inseparable trio. An old man resorts to moral blackmail, and Sha Zhu plays the role of a henchman. If that doesn't work, a deaf old woman has to step in to save the day. The biggest taboo in writing about courtyard houses is to fawn over Sha Zhu and whitewash Qin Huairu.
Here's a layout of a traditional courtyard house. I found it online; I'm not a stickler for historical accuracy, so I'll just use this for now.
The beginning was fine, but I don't understand why he got entangled with Widow Qin. Does he really like washing pots that much? I'm sure the book's ratings plummeted after he got involved with Widow Qin. I'm dropping it.
Just a small suggestion: could you please stop writing about widows all the time? Why keep writing about widows? A rural woman who gave birth to three children, and you're praising her like she's a goddess? That's ridiculous! Are there no women left in northern Beijing? Why praise an old woman like that? Write about life in that era, that's fine. What's the point of constantly writing about a widow, a rural woman who gave birth to three children? You've really never seen a woman before!
I dropped it when I saw her paired with He Yushui, even though I'm okay with harem anime.
In the past, crops grown in remote areas could only be sold on the black market. Factory purchases required receipts; otherwise, how could they keep accounts? Some people who wrote "sold to the factory" showed a complete lack of common sense. Back then, everything was done between official and private entities.
I specifically subscribed to this chapter to comment! Please take a look at this chapter; if you can accept it, then accept it!
Selling grain is outrageous; the quantity is too large. Is it okay if we don't contact them? If Deputy Factory Director Li confesses, you're basically finished.
Damn it, I found this book, everything else is fine, but the thought of He Yushui, that ugly bastard, being the female lead makes it impossible to read.
Can I unsubscribe? Give me my money back! Sha Zhu's IQ drops to zero when he encounters Qin Huairu's family, and your male lead is about the same! He gets bullied and just says "it's nothing" and that's it? He gets ripped off and has four or five yuan's worth of meat stolen. Just "it's nothing"?? Not even four or five yuan these days!
