Today is the annual Tsaiyi Town food festival. The streets are crowded with people, and it's very lively. Even the Lan and Second Young Master, who usually don't go out much, have come out.
In the area of Suzhou, who doesn't know Lost in the Clouds on the mountain of the Lan? Since ancient times, it has been a prestigious family. While other families may be wealthy for only three generations, the Lan has been getting richer and more noble with each generation. Not to mention the girls from Suzhou, even the girls from Lanling, Qinghe, Yunmeng, and even Qishan all hope to marry into the Lan.
Of course, it's not just because the Lan is wealthy, but also because their family has a traditional rule - only destined individuals can marry into the family. However, what kind of person is considered destined? That depends on the Lan's own judgment.
People from the Lan all wear forehead ribbons, which makes them quite eye-catching. So, when Lan Wangji and his group were still a few hundred meters outside of the town, the young ladies in the Tsaiyi Town were already excited.
Lan Wangji didn't want to come, the books in the library were not yet copied, but his older brother Lan Xichen insisted and pushed him out of the mountain gate, saying that he was too young to learn bad habits from his uncle and should go out more. Thinking about the food festival in Tsaiyi Town that his students had mentioned, he decided to go and find some good food.
However, Lan Wangji soon regretted entering the town, as there were just too many people, and he didn't know what he had done wrong to have so many women staring at him.
Lan Wangji OS: Brother, Wangji is frightening...
Lan Wangji wanted to turn and leave, but there were too many people, jostling and pushing, until he found himself at the corner food stall. There were three stalls here, and Lan Wangji decided to eat something to fill his stomach before he could free himself.
Vendor A: "Young master, buy a portion of our fish-flavored shredded pork. It's savory and delicious, very tasty!"
Vendor B: "No no no, young master, take a look at our husband and wife lung slices. It's a traditional special recipe with red oil, and we also added crushed peanuts!"
These two delicacies do not suit Lan Wangji's taste. Just as he was about to refuse, he heard the third stall owner speak up. This person was resting in the corridor with a cool hat on his head, and all that could be seen was his plain linen clothes. Lan Wangji initially thought he was a countryman, but upon hearing his voice, he realized he was a young man.
"Young sir, neither of them are the real deal. Don't be fooled!"
Both vendors are middle-aged, robust individuals. When they heard someone baselessly disparaging their signs, they immediately became angry.
Vendor A: "Where did this brat come from? How dare you say that my sign isn't genuine! I've been in business for over a decade!"
Vendor B: "You're young but talk big! Everyone who has tried my husband and wife lung slices says they're delicious. How can they not be the real deal?"
Vendor A: "If you don't explain clearly, I'll make you explain it right here!"
Just as Lan Wangji was about to intervene with a few words, thinking that he could just buy from both of them, the young man suddenly took off his cool hat, stood up with one leg on the stone steps of the corridor, hands on his hips, and smirked crookedly. Not only did Lan Wangji look stunned, but everyone around who was watching the commotion was also stunned. Everyone had the same thought: This young man is really handsome!
However, the two stall owners did not buy the superficial account, and aggressively demanded an explanation from the young man.
"An explanation, huh? Alright! You, does the fish-flavored shredded pork contain fish? No, it's just shredded pork. Did you steal the fish? And you, is the husband and wife lung slices really made from the lungs of a married couple? If so, then you are a villain who kills people. If not, then it's just a false advertisement!"
The two vendors had never encountered such an unreasonable person before, and for a moment, they were at a loss for words. However, someone in the crowd shouted, "Young master, what are you selling? Are they genuine products?"
Vendor B responded, "Yeah! What are you selling? Show us! Don't sell something without even knowing what it is, just using your mouth to slander others!"
The young man's eyes were full of pride as he waved his hand to reveal the cloth covering his stall: "I'm selling Sweetheart cake!"
The crowd fell into a moment of silence, followed by bursts of laughter, and the two stall owners were full of mockery.
Vendor A (contemptuously): "Kid! There's no wife in your Sweetheart cake either!"
"Who says there isn't!"
The young man immediately changed his proud demeanor from earlier and turned to look at Lan Wangji, squinting his peach blossom eyes as he asked with a smile, "Sir, would you like to buy a Sweetheart cake? If you buy my Sweetheart cake, I'll give you a wife as well~"
Lan Wangji felt as if an invisible arrow had struck his heart, thumping, thumping, thumping... It was beating so fast, could this be the feeling of meeting one's destined partner!
Lan Wangji (puts down a piece of silver): "Alright! I'll buy it all!"
So, Lan Wangji spent one hundred taels of silver to not only buy a bunch of Sweetheart cakes, but also acquired a wife. Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, and amidst the envy and jealousy of the girls, he led the proud and willful Young master wife back to Lost in the Clouds.
Wei Wuxian OS: Hehe! Sweetheart cake Strategy plan, success!
