On the first day of the lunar new year, Lost in the Clouds, it's rarely lively. Families with children are visiting each other, both to celebrate the new year and to collect lucky money for the kids. After the visits, every child's pockets are filled with lucky money.
"Sigh~"
After seeing off a few children who came to wish him a happy new year, Wei Wuxian looked at his empty wallet and couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong?" Lan Wangji wrapped Wei Wuxian in his arms and smoothed the hair on his forehead with his hand.
"Lan Zhan, why are there so many children from Lost in the Clouds? Three hundred taels of silver, all spent early in the morning."
"No worries, there's still money in the box. We can go to the internal affairs office to get more when we run out."
"The thing is, that's true, but I just..."
"Uh-huh?"
"You see, we're just sending money out and not getting any in return, we're losing so much!"
Lan Wangji couldn't help but laugh. He didn't know that Wei Wuxian was actually a little money-minded and still cared about these things.
"Rich."
"Lan Zhan, Lost in the Clouds, don't you understand the meaning of forbidding arrogance and extravagance? And you're still a Disciplinary Officer~"
I never expected that one day I would be lectured by Wei Wuxian using the family rules. This made Lan Wangji a bit speechless, but more than that, he found it cute.
"How do you plan to handle it?"
"Well... didn't we formalize the Sizhui under your name before the new year?"
Lan Wangji had a vague sense of unease, but still nodded.
"So Sizhui is our son, we've gained a son without any effort!"
I didn't have time to ask two questions, and Wei Wuxian had already run away. Looking at his empty embrace, Lan Wangji sighed helplessly. Thinking that there shouldn't be anything happening on New Year's Day, he let him go and planned to take the New Year's gift to Pine Breeze and Waterside Moon to play chess with uncle and his older brother.
Meanwhile, Wei Wuxian had already run to Lan Sizhui's bedroom.
" Sizhui!"
"Senior Wei."
On the first five days of the new year, Lan Sizhui had rare leisure time. After getting up at the usual hour of the rabbit (5-7 am) to practice morning exercises, he stayed in his room to read.
"Hmm, why is he still being called Senior Wei? His name is already in the family records."
"Ah... father." This is the shy Sizhui baby.
"Mm, good boy!"
Although he was already listed in the family tree and had a rightful name, Lan Sizhui still wasn't used to it. After calling "Senior Wei" for so long, it was quite difficult for him, a young man who would be of age in a few years, to suddenly call him "father."
" Yuan, do you see how father is good to you?"
"Mm." The innocent Sizhui baby nodded simply.
"Since that's the case, it's time for you to repay father now!"
"Hmm?" Lan Sizhui was puzzled. What could Wei Wuxian need him to do? Anything related to Wei Wuxian was usually taken care of by Lan Wangji, unless Lan Wangji was not at Lost in the Clouds. But today is the first day of the lunar new year, and Lan Wangji didn't go out. However, if it's something Wei Wuxian needs him to do, he will definitely do it!
So, Lost in the Clouds presented a unique and unprecedented scene that left the elders stunned.
Wei Wuxian pulled Lan Sizhui, who was almost as tall as him, and went to knock on the door of every elder and guest of the Lan, making Lan Sizhui address them differently, then put on an innocent smile, and finally kicked Sizhui and made him laugh along.
The meaning is very clear: it's the New Year, and my child has come to pay a New Year's visit. You can see that everyone else has been called, so it's time to give the New Year's money, right?
At first, Lan Sizhui refused this gesture. Children who receive New Year's money are usually under ten years old, and he felt very embarrassed being so grown up. However, Wei Wuxian firmly held his hand, with a "terrifying" smile that seemed to say, "If you don't get the money from Old Qian today, I will beat you until your other father won't recognize you." With a gulp, he reluctantly called out for someone.
Starting anything is difficult, after calling one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight times, Lan Sizhui was completely exasperated. Wei Wuxian casually dragged him wherever, making him call people and bow as he pleased.
As lunchtime approached, Wei Wuxian arrived with his adopted son at the final destination—Pine Breeze and Waterside Moon.
There is absolutely no adulteration. When Lan Wangji saw Wei Wuxian holding Lan Sizhui's hand and entering, his eyebrows suddenly jumped, and the previously vague premonition became particularly strong. Is it coming?
"Uncle, big brother," he said with a smile on his face.
"Okay," this is Yazheng as usual, Lan Qiren.
"Wuxian is here. I just asked Wangji where you went," this is the gentle Lan Xichen as usual.
"I took Sizhui to pay New Year's respects. Now we're just missing uncle and older brother!"
Upon hearing Wei Wuxian's words, Lan Xichen and Lan Qiren both stopped their game of chess and glanced at Lan Wangji. The meaning behind their gazes was quite clear: What kind of antics is your wife up to now?
However, Lan Wangji, completely unaware, could only purse his lips and awkwardly take a sip of tea.
" Yuan, someone is calling you."
" Sizhui came to wish great-granduncle and uncle a happy new year. Wishing great-granduncle and uncle good health and happiness in the coming year."
"Cough...cough...cough..." This is Lan Wangji choking on half a mouthful of water, his uncharacteristic reaction drawing a glance from Lan Qiren. It's just a New Year's greeting, so he doesn't understand why Lan Wangji is overreacting like this.
Lan Xichen paused for a moment, then immediately understood Wei Wuxian's intention. He smiled and took out a delicate wallet from his pocket, handing it to Lan Sizhui.
" Sizhui, come, this is from your great-granduncle and uncle, wishing you peace and good health, and hoping you will bring glory to our the Lan in the future."
"Well, Xichen is right, health is the most important. Sizhui, don't be impatient, focus on your studies and cultivation, only then can you become a great talent."
"Yes, Sizhui remembers."
After having lunch, Wangxian took their adopted son back to Jing Shi, only to find Lan Sizhui had received at least a thousand taels in New Year's money. Lan Wangji felt that he had underestimated the extent of his partner's generosity.
"Wei Qian..."
"Hmm?"
"Father, all the lucky money is here, where should I put it for you?"
"Why would you give it to me? This is all yours, keep it for yourself."
"Ah?"
"Ah, what's this? I got it for you, so keep it safe and use it as you like. When it's used up, come back to the Jing Shi. There's still a lot of money here with Father! Now I'm also a wealthy brother~ No, it's a wealthy father! Lan Zhan, don't you agree?"
Lan Wangji hugged his laughing and embracing partner, making a soft sound of agreement. But the next words from Wei Wuxian instantly petrified him in place.
"Oops, I forgot. Yuan, come, call Father."
"!!!" Lan Sizhui also froze in place. On the day of the family tree entry, Lan Wangji didn't even ask him to change his address. This... suddenly asking him to call Lan Wangji father is much harder than calling Wei Wuxian "father."
"Wei Ying, don't be silly."
"Why am I being silly? Aren't you his father? When he was little, the first time he saw you, he hugged your leg and called you dad. Why could he call you that when he was little, but now that he's grown up, he can't? Yuan, Yuan!"
"Mmm!"
"Hurry and call Father, you might get another big red envelope! father I promise you, it will be bigger than anyone else's!"
The matter of Lan Sizhui calling him father was brought up by Lan Wangji, but he never thought of asking Lan Sizhui to call him father. He didn't want to make things difficult for Lan Sizhui. Just as he was about to speak up to dissuade him, he heard a barely perceptible "Father."
" Yuan, why are you still so shy? Speak up louder."
"Father!"
This time it was loud enough, and Lan Sizhui even bowed. In his heart, the Wangxian couple were no different from his biological parents. His parents gave him life, but it was under the care of the Wangxian couple that he was able to grow up safely. This "father" and "dad" also came from the bottom of his heart.
"Well, good boy. Lan Zhan, Lan Zhan!"
Lan Wangji It was only after coming to from the dizziness of being called "father" that he realized the feeling of being called "father" was like this... a sense of accomplishment? Lan Wangji He wasn't sure how to describe this feeling, but he was undeniably happy.
As a result, as Wei Wuxian had said, he indeed gave Lan Sizhui a bigger red envelope than others—【One thousand taels of gold】! This made Wei Wuxian sigh, "Rich brothers will always be rich brothers, but now he's upgraded to a rich father!"
Lan Sizhui returned to his room with a handful of New Year's money, just as Lan Jingyi had finished paying respects to his ancestors and came back to find him. Seeing so much money, including a one thousand two gold note, he was so shocked that he suspected Lan Sizhui of having committed robbery. After learning the whole story, Lan Jingyi enviously asked with a soulful question:
"Sizhui, do you think Lord Hanguang and Senior Wei still need a son?"
Regarding this, Lan Sizhui kindly expressed: Go find your Lord Ze Wu at home, don't come and compete with me for Dad!
