My Smart Learning System in the Siheyuan

The mere mention of a native is enough to deter most people! Is the author smugly pleased with himself for going against the grain, thinking his ideas are unique and he's carved out a new path, since everyone else is writing about time travelers? Has he ever considered why no one else uses such a simple premise?

Only someone who's really lacking in elders would call someone "Uncle" or "Grandpa" so affectionately. You'd only call someone that if all your relatives were dead. Is it illegal to put a surname before a neighbor's name?

The natives didn't seem like natives, and the time travelers didn't seem like time travelers.

Someone with cheat codes, immediately goes looking for a widow, is their brain full of water?

Author, please don't arbitrarily change some historical data. There wasn't such severe manipulation of worker performance evaluations back then, at least not in Beijing.

When I first saw the "golden finger" (a powerful, overpowered ability), it seemed pretty good. At the first chapter, I thought it was a time traveler, but later I realized it was just a mediocre character. I'm not one to abandon a book easily, so this kind of book wasn't very interesting. The main problem was the complicated plot.

Having read the beginning, let me briefly summarize. The protagonist, as depicted by the author, is morally corrupt. He refuses to follow the proper path and always chooses crooked and unethical routes. The novel neither provides a satisfying reading experience nor captures the essence of the era, failing to evoke any sense of its atmosphere. Readers gain little from it.

This whole "grandpa" thing is all thanks to the courtyard house culture! People usually call him by his full name, but strangers just call him "grandpa." There's no such thing as a "first," "second," or "third grandpa." A courtyard house has about 20 households, so that would require three liaison officers.

That's nonsense. In northern China, people over 50 are called "Grandpa" and "Grandma" (if you know their surname, include it; if not, forget it). People over 40 are called "Uncle" or "Grandpa" (or "Big Uncle"). From there down to around 30, they're called "Auntie" or "Auntie" (or "Auntie"). Men and women over 20 are called "Brother" or "Sister" (or "Sister"), which is the proper politeness for young people in their early 20s.

I don't believe that the people in the courtyard house fully reflect the behavior of the indigenous people back then. Do you think you can write about an indigenous person?
