As Wan Ziyan spoke, he put two love locks on the two little ones' wrists.
The Chen family members turned pale and became somewhat flustered upon seeing this.
Wang Zhi hurriedly said, "This is unacceptable! These two love locks are far too valuable!"
After Wan Ziyan finished fastening the locks for the two of them, he stood up and said with a faint smile, "It's alright, it's just silver jewelry. I originally wanted a gold lock, but I'm short of money... I'll get it later."
Wan Qiqi didn't think much of it; it was just a silver item.
It's true that silver items are expensive in this era.
The little monkey had met Wan Ziyan before, so Wan Qiqi couldn't introduce him. He stood in front of Wan Ziyan and called out, "Brother... Brother."
Wan Qiqi was once again shocked when the little monkey spoke.
To her even greater surprise, the usually shy little monkey actually took the initiative to greet Wan Ziyan!
But something about this form of address seems off.
Calling Wan Ziyan "brother" means he's not in the same generation as the two little ones.
But Xia Shan Hu and Xue Jiang are fellow disciples, Xue Jiang is twice his height, and Xiao Gou Zi is his peer and calls him "sister," so it doesn't seem like there's any problem.

Wang Zhi looked somewhat surprised and quickly asked, "Qiqi, we've already prepared a lot of New Year's goods at home, enough to last until after the first month of the lunar calendar. Why did you buy so much? Didn't Yongliang tell you?"
Wan Qiqi shrugged. "I didn't buy it; my second brother prepared it."
Wang Zhi panicked upon hearing this and immediately said, "No way! We can't accept them! Take them all back!"
She pulled Wan Qiqi aside and whispered, "If something happens to Master Wan's family, all their property will be confiscated. The silver lock and all these things must be worth at least several dozen taels of silver. He spends so much; what will he do in the future?"
Wan Qiqi patted Wang Shi's hand and said earnestly, "This is my brother's first time visiting on behalf of his maternal family, so he wanted to prepare more gifts. Mother, it's alright, I'll find a way to return them later."
Although Wang Zhi didn't say anything more, she couldn't hide her astonishment.
