Siheyuan: From the Start on May Day, Hard Work Pays Off

When Qin Weiguo wakes up, he discovers that he has transmigrated to the capital in 1951 and become a resident of Courtyard No. 95 on Nanluoguxiang. That year, He Daqing hasn't run off with the White Widow yet. Sixteen-year-old Silly Zhu has just started as an apprentice at Fengzeyuan. Qin Huairu has just turned eighteen and has yet to marry into the Jia family, while Jia Dongxu is still hale and hearty at the steel mill. In this courtyard, where everyone is scheming against everyone else, Qin Weiguo can barely take a step. Fortunately, he awakens the “Heaven Rewards Diligence” System. Whatever he does, as long as he keeps at it, he quickly becomes proficient. Cooking, metalworking, medicine, languages: he excels at them all. In an era when even a meal of white flour is hard to come by, while everyone else frets over half a jin of cornmeal, Qin Weiguo is already enjoying braised pork thanks to his skills. With his knowledge of the story, he's destined to live a remarkable life in this courtyard full of scoundrels.
