What would you do if you could go back to that era?

When Lin Yi wakes from a dream, he finds himself transported into the world of "The Siheyuan" TV drama. Armed with a "Helpful Happiness System," how will he navigate relationships with the story's iconic characters?

I'm a bit confused. I just went on a budget trip, how did I become a fool for no reason? Well! Since I'm here, I might as well make the best of it. At least I don't have to worry about eating bread every day. Although this era is materially scarce, the people of this era are simple and kind! The happiness index of life is high! ~Okay! Except for this man-eating courtyard and the beasts living in this courtyard~

Gao Zhendong transmigrates into the world of Siheyuan (The Courtyard). As a newcomer to the quadrangle compound, he boasts an impeccable background: an exemplar of revolutionary pedigree, physically robust, strikingly handsome, and battle-hardened from military service where he earned repeated merits. With advanced university education, technical expertise, ample funds, and a system at his disposal, he possesses both the wisdom of his past life and the system's guaranteed resources—occasionally enhanced by futuristic insights from lucky draws.

Rejecting trivial pursuits and petty squabbles over trifles, he aspires to contribute meaningfully in this zealous and vibrant era. At the very least, he wishes to declare in his twilight years: "These two lifetimes have been worthwhile."

Reborn as He Yuzhu in a chaotic Siheyuan courtyard, he awakens the Divine Chef System—with top-tier cooking skills and a sharp mind, he's not here to be anyone’s fool.

From day one, he marries his wife and flips the script on this so-called "neighborhood drama." Qin Huairu and the First Uncle try to guilt-trip him with their twisted morals? Not a chance.

Jia Zhang and Bang Geng causing trouble again? Brother Zhuzi has no time for their nonsense—and he’s not afraid to show them who's boss.

Wholesome vibes, slice-of-life twists, character reworks, and a loyal single female lead—watch He Yuzhu cook up a new life in the courtyard, one dish (and one showdown) at a time!

What?"

"I'm traveling through time without a cheat code..."

"And they're asking me to give up my job..."

"Are you taking me for a fool?"

Wang Dong faces this series of challenges when traveling through a courtyard...

See how he manages to develop quietly amidst the beasts and material scarcity, and finally make the leap...

[Siheyuan + delicious food + no violence]

[Subsequently, Jia Zhang died]

Liu Pingan woke up and traveled to the world of Siheyuan, becoming a purchaser of a steel mill.

But he had no ambitions,

He just wanted to lead his family to live a good life in these difficult years.

Ps: This is written according to the characters in the TV series, not the characters in the fan fiction. Don't criticize this book by taking the fan fiction you have read as the original work.

Upon waking up, Li Kailang found himself traveling to the world of Love in Courtyard.

Became a driver in a steel mill, and the sign-in system came along.

Knowing the appearance of the beasts in the courtyard, Li Kailang naturally would not be confused by their behavior.

In this era, Li Kailang completed the factory's tasks on time and delivered steel and goods. Not only was his work simple and easy, but he also received extra rewards from time to time.

When you are on a mission out of the province, you can also taste local specialties and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

He said that whoever dares to mess with me will be dealt with!

【It doesn't follow the plot exactly, there are some changes. 】

Other name: "People in the Siheyuan, the system in Tianlong Babu."

The good news: there are systems.

Bad news: the system went to the wrong set!

Ye Xiaonan received a system saying that it could take him to the Siheyuan world.

As a result, he left the system and accidentally went to the neighboring world of Tian Long Ba Bu.

The good news is that he can still connect to the system, the bad news is that something is not right with this mission.

[Main Quest: The most important things in the martial arts world are strength and background. Please join a sect.]

[Ding! The host has successfully joined the 10,000-person bulk steel rolling sect and received a bonus sect technique level +3.]

Sect's skills?

Are you talking about this "Plumber Training Manual"?

[Side Quest: The host is detected in the sect's Sutra Library. Please find the secret of the Sutra Library.]

The secret of the Sutra Repository?

But this book "Postpartum Care for Sows"?

[Ding! The host has successfully discovered the secret of the Sutra Library, and the sow's postpartum care has been upgraded to Grandmaster level.]

[Main Mission: Host, please build your own faction.]

I have mastered the art of postpartum sow care, so why not work on a pig farm?

So Ye Xiaonan relied on the Tianlong Babu system next door and gradually reached the peak of his life in the courtyard.

Having traversed the world of traditional courtyard houses, I became a street office cadre.

The beasts in the yard thought they were too young to be easily manipulated.

They all wanted to take advantage of him.

At this moment, he awakened the system and used its power to teach the beasts in the yard a good lesson.

Trying to take advantage? I'll break your teeth.

【Siheyuan】【Era】【Developing the Country with Science and Technology】【Single Female Lead】【Controlling the Poultry】

What? I was reborn in a courtyard house in the 1950s, a student at a key university, and a genius ranked among the top three in my grade.

Recalling the incomplete memories in his mind, Li Xiao completely collapsed: "I studied literature in my previous life, what is going on? Is this a joke?"

From gas tank cannons to Type 63 rocket launchers.

From motorcycles to cars to tanks and airplanes.

Heavy industry revitalizes the country...
