According to custom, one did not go out on the first day of the Lunar New Year. Although there were no elders living in the King's Residence, Qi Haoran still planned to follow this rule and stay at home for a day so that he could take the opportunity to relax.
However, Fan Zijin had no such plans. After breakfast, he brought his two children over to visit.
Knowing that he was avoiding Fan Siwen, Qi Haoran was happy to receive him. However, he couldn't help himself from speaking sarcastically. When he welcomed Fan Zijin in, he couldn't help but say, "Fortunately, Ah Ling made a lot of food last night and there's quite a lot of leftovers. Otherwise, I really wouldn't have any food to entertain you with."
Fan Zijin was speechless. "I really didn't know that you were going to abide by the rule of not killing on the first day of the Lunar New Year and eating the leftovers from the New Year's Eve. Why don't I leave now?"
