Siheyuan: I Was an Honest Man, but They Turned Me into an All-Round King

I didn't even want to read it after reading the synopsis 🤫. The author thinks it's satisfying? That's just wishful thinking. Being a sucker and then winning because of a cheat ability makes you feel like you've really won? Wouldn't it be better to follow your own plan? Do you have to be a sucker for someone else to use a cheat ability?

The protagonist's character is unlikable, life is so tough, why doesn't the novel offer some catharsis?

Those who don't think too much can take a look, but if you like to take things too seriously, this book will drive you crazy.

Isn't it frustrating to always be a simpleton? Can the readers even empathize with the story? It's not like you have to play a fool to gain experience; why make you act like a pushover?

Aside from the overly overpowered plot device, the writing is smooth and the story is decent. I hope that the protagonist will deal with the vicious neighbor in a tit-for-tat manner later on!

Two thousand yuan for a meal? Is that price reasonable? Two thousand yuan for a meal in a courtyard house?

The grain and provisions are in short supply. I especially love the stories of ordinary people living in courtyard houses. Those who can accept the power of "I'm thinking" can take a look.

The author should check if the timeline is correct. Chapter 3 states the protagonist is around the same age as Jia Dongxu, but later it says Sha Zhu is 17, the same age as the protagonist, yet Sha Zhu is five years older than Jia Dongxu. The story begins in 1965, when Sha Zhu is 31. He would be 17 now, meaning it's 1951, just two years after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

I was going to leave a comment, but since you require reader points, I'll pass.

I read one chapter and the writing style is quite good, but your introduction is a major mistake. I really enjoy reading historical fiction, and it's essential to base it on the social conditions and major events of the time. People living in courtyard houses often harbor resentment, and seeing them suffer unfair treatment is unbearable.
