A Harmonious Discussion

Lin Nieran also took a few days off, closing the shop the day before the New Year and coming to the Boundless Land to do a thorough cleaning with his Vest.

Although he could clean up all the dust and dirt in the Boundless Land with a single thought, he still had to go through the necessary procedures.

Although the process was somewhat chaotic.

Lai'er got stuck in the door again because of his wings. Serlandin laughed and pushed him in, suggesting, "Perhaps we should replace this door with a bigger one."

Lin Nieran said, "Good idea."

Outside, the Vines of the Flower Language quickly put things back in their place on the Lawn and cleared away fallen leaves from some trees.

Watering the grass and flowers, and changing the water in the pond, one person can do all the work in an orderly manner.

Gan Tian was busy in the kitchen on the first floor. Among all these people, she was the one who used the kitchen the most; it had become her little world.

Aside from Lin Nieran, she usually doesn't let anyone else in.

Inside, the Cat Boy was wiping the ceiling with a rag. Moonlit Night looked up at him helplessly and said, "Mo Lan, you're not in cat form right now, be careful not to fall."

The Cat Boy turned around, his vertical pupils fixed on the Moonlit Night: "Mo Lan won't, don't, you jinx it."

As the Writer Yu Guangzhong was wiping his books, he glanced at the glass door and paused.

The Puppet outside, instead of working, hopped and skipped around, eagerly offering Lin Nieran Xiaobai that it had somehow acquired.

Thump!

The sudden noise interrupted the two people inside. They turned around and saw the Cat Boy grimacing and clutching his back as he got up and rushed outside, not even bothering to cry out in pain.

"Puppet, shameless!"

Reaching out in the Moonlit Night, she said, "Oh, your injury—"

Let him be.

The Writer's paper drifted to the Moonlit Night.

Looking at Mo Lan's retreating figure, Moonlit Night Ye shook her head helplessly. When she turned around and opened her eyes again, the sound of the Bells at her waist suddenly stopped.

Night Moon picked up the rag that the Cat Boy had dropped, glanced at the spot on the top that wasn't clean, and continued working while holding the rag with water.

Outside, Lin Nieran extremely annoyed as he watched Mo Lan suddenly rush out and scratch the Puppet.

Now that the Peaceful Faction is temporarily under the leadership of the Saintess, he can ensure that things proceed smoothly without any problems without needing to worry about them. The Neutral Faction is small, so Moonlit Night is also relatively worry-free and there shouldn't be any issues.

The only thing left is the bizarre Extremist Faction who lack a leader to restrain them.

To manage these unique Vest, one must be either exceptionally capable or have an uncanny personality; otherwise, there will only be one more unique Vest.

Unfortunately, he hasn't been able to draw such a card yet.

Temporarily forgetting the two fighting behind him, Lin Nieran placed the flowers the Puppet had given him in a vase. He walked into the Garden, where the Butler was teaching Wang and Wu Liang how to grow flowers.

The Garden was a figment of the imagination, and many flowers that hadn't been transformed into something eerie were transplanted, which took the Butler a lot of effort.

After bustling around for a while, Wang stood up and looked back at the empty flower basket with a puzzled expression. "Where's my white baby's breath?"

Wu Liang brushed aside his slightly longer, stray hairs and glanced back. "There's no such thing as a sky full of stars."

"I bought this especially as a gift for my father!"

Wu Liang sneered, "Looks like even the heavens won't let you deliver it."

Lin Nieran thought of the flowers she had just placed in the vase and fell silent.

Not long after, Bai Yang and his Puppet, who had left early in the morning, returned with bags and bundles of red paper and ink.

The Puppet, carrying goods on their heads, put them down on the ground and collapsed from exhaustion.

"Finally, I've bought everything."

Although Lin Nieran wanted to write the couplets himself, he hadn't seen many auspicious couplets when he was a child. He picked up the pen, hesitated for a while, and then put it down dejectedly, frowning in distress.

Cheng Shanshi, who had rushed back to help, happened to walk in. Seeing the red paper, he said, "Tao Yuan and the others are also writing couplets. Does the Mountain Master want to write one too?"

Lin Nieran simply put down his pen. "Perfect, you write it."

"Huh?" Cheng Shanshi was both excited and at a loss. "I... I haven't written any either."

Lin Nieran said, "Moonlit Night and Night Moon are good at calligraphy. I'll call him over, and you can tell him what to write while he writes."

007 seemed to sense the New Year's atmosphere as well, happily circling around him: [Why don't you buy the Spring Festival couplets from the system store, host? They're cheap and have the effect of warding off evil spirits!]

"You only truly feel the New Year when you write your own couplets," Lin Nieran said.

[Who wrote the Spring Festival couplets for the host in previous years?]

Lin Nieran recalled what had happened earlier, a slight smile in his eyes, "It was someone I didn't like."

007 couldn't understand why Lin Nieran would laugh if he didn't like it, but unfortunately, no matter how much it pestered the host, it couldn't get an answer, so it could only keep its questions to itself.

After a busy day, everyone gathered on the Lawn for dinner that night, discussing what to eat for the New Year's Eve dinner the following day.

Everyone has their own hobbies. Ever since Lin Nieran bought a pot that can cook by itself from the System Shop, the pot has been constantly in use, almost to the point of sparks flying.

Lin Nieran gave each Vest 100,000 Points per month as pocket money, which they could apply to Night Moon to buy things. Night Moon would record the purchases and give them to him, who would then purchase them from the system.

The only problem is that the raw materials for the regular food in the system are too expensive. Before, they couldn't even use up all their Points. But since they got this pot, the Vest are experiencing for the first time that they don't have enough Points.

"I think we could make spicy chicken," Gan Tian suggested.

"I don't like it, it's too spicy." The Cat Boy shook his head in refusal.

"I want stir-fried seasonal vegetables," Flower Language said.

"That's too bland," Modian said. "I'd like to eat mooncakes stir-fried with green peppers, or honeydew melon stir-fried with eggs!"

Everyone looked puzzled. "What have you cooked in that pot?!"

The Vest unanimously decided to strip Modian of his right to order food, Modian's objection was ignored.

They were discussing things enthusiastically, Lin Nieran didn't get involved; he just sat quietly to the side and watched them.

Next to Lin Nieran was an empty chair, where Lin Yi, who was not visible to others, sat.

In Lin Nieran's mind, the other personalities who hadn't gone out were also discussing it, but since they couldn't eat, they could only mutter to Lin Nieran, wishing for another chance to come out.

After they had finished arguing, Lin Nieran said, "Before the strange occurrences, every household would eat dumplings during the Lunar New Year."

"Okay, okay, let's add this to the menu." Gan Tian immediately agreed without thinking.

"These dumplings taste best when made at home," Bai Yang said, who also had memories of the Lunar New Year. "Shall we make them together tomorrow morning?"

"It wouldn't hurt to give it a try," Serlandin said with a smile.

"Yes." Everyone agreed.

With the main course decided, everyone continued discussing the other dishes. Lin Nieran didn't participate anymore, so he simply reclined his chair and lay lazily, gazing at the Boundless Land night sky.

The sky here is special; there are no stars, no moon, only a layer of bright, luminous clouds that hangs in the sky day and night, radiating a soft light.
