In space at this time,
Albedo and the others had been staying on the space station.
Even though it was already the Chinese New Year, they had no intention of coming down.
After all, they were now completely obsessed with research.
Research conducted in space and research conducted underground were two entirely different situations.
Because of this, these people in the sky could not wait to stay here every day to study.
Although they did not go down to celebrate the New Year, Liyue still sent a large amount of supplies and New Year goods to them.
Because it was the Chinese New Year, these researchers who did not have a holiday also gathered together for dinner.
From the restaurant, they could see the situation below Teyvat.
The current space station was positioned above Liyue.
With fireworks blooming below,
everyone who was eating could see those small lights.
They could even see the fireworks continuously exploding.
Seeing the scene below, everyone was very surprised.
Smiles also appeared on their faces.
It was really wonderful.
Although they did not return, celebrating the New Year in the sky was still a very special experience.
It was the first time for everyone to admire fireworks from this perspective.
Their mood was naturally excellent.
Everyone decided not to stay up late doing research tonight.
So everyone began drinking wine.
Even Albedo was the same.
Teyvat had truly changed a great deal.
Albedo was also in an especially good mood.
At the same time, he was also thinking about what Klee was doing right now.
Whether one was in space or in a distant land,
at this moment, watching the continuously rising fireworks made one feel extraordinarily happy.
Today was the day of family reunion.
How could anyone feel unhappy?
After admiring the fireworks for a while, many people could no longer hold on.
They all began returning to rest.
Tomorrow morning, they still needed to go worship.
This had become a new tradition in Liyue.
On the first day of the New Year, people would go to the mountains to pay homage to the gods.
Even the adepti who had gone to Zhongli's side for reunion and drinks returned to their posts early.
Everyone was waiting for the New Year incense ceremony.
How could anyone not go to work tomorrow?
In any case, many adepti were quite happy.
Some people were happy, but some were not.
For example, Zhongli.
Because many people would visit him tomorrow.
Just thinking about it made him feel depressed.
He simply did not want to think about it anymore.
He decided to hide tomorrow.
If Hu Tao saw him, she would probably drag him around again.
There was also Takumi's fake ceremonial setup.
So Zhongli made a decision.
He would go somewhere else to relax.
He would not participate in these matters tomorrow.
Nothing special happened through the night, and soon the next day arrived.
After the people of Liyue got up early, they began preparing to pay homage to the adepti.
They also needed to rise early and start preparing offerings.
Then they would head to the mountains.
Logically speaking, it was not appropriate to slaughter animals on the first day of the New Year.
But Takumi did not rigidly follow every custom.
So he only told everyone what must be done on the first day of the New Year.
Some remaining customs were unnecessary.
A group of children in Liyue woke up especially happy.
Everyone had received red envelopes last night.
But they could not run around freely.
After all, as soon as they woke up, they were told,
Today, everyone would worship together.
So none of them could escape.
The little ones carrying lucky money naturally behaved very obediently.
After all, if their parents took all the money back, that would be miserable.
Because of this, the children today were inexplicably well behaved.
Takumi and the others were also making preparations.
After getting up in the morning and eating breakfast,
they prepared to pay homage to the Geo Archon.
This was already Takumi's usual routine.
It had to be done.
At the very least, it was a gesture.
It was also a sign of respect for the Archon.
Even if it was just for the people of Liyue to see.
Takumi also received a message from Hu Tao early in the morning.
That girl was very diligent and had already arrived early to wait.
This year was another serious day of worship.
In addition, she also wanted to call Zhongli.
But Zhongli could not be contacted at all.
This made Hu Tao feel regretful.
It would have been even better if Zhongli could go with them.
What a pity.
Perhaps that was why Zhongli hid himself.
After all, Hu Tao was really troublesome.
If he did not hide, he would probably suffer for a long time.
Takumi, Ningguang, keqing, and the others went directly to Wuwang Hill.
Hu Tao was already arranging things there.
At the same time, she was still talking with others.
She was introducing the business of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.
Of course, it was not about selling coffins or anything.
On the first day of the New Year, Hu Tao also knew she should not say such things.
What she recommended now were various rituals and ceremonies.
Everything was presented in an organized and professional manner.
"Don't worry!"
"In addition to funeral services, our Wangsheng Funeral Parlor has also begun handling other matters."
"For example, we also undertake ceremonial services for worshiping the adepti."
"Since last year, we have been very serious about offering incense to the Geo Archon, and we have organized a complete ritual process."
"You should already have some impression of this."
"If you need anything, you can always come to Wangsheng Funeral Parlor!"
Hu Tao happily introduced her new business to others.
After finishing her explanation, Hu Tao noticed Takumi's arrival.
She immediately said to the potential customers in front of her:
"Next, the sacrificial ceremony organized by our Wangsheng Funeral Parlor will begin."
"You can also participate."
"I believe you will gain something from it."
"That's all for now. If you need anything, please remember to contact Wangsheng Funeral Parlor."
After saying this, Hu Tao ran toward Takumi and the others.
"Happy New Year, Takumi!"
"May you be happy and prosperous!"
"Hee hee~~!"
As soon as Hu Tao arrived, she offered her greetings.
Her intention was obvious.
Hand over the red envelope quickly.
In Hu Tao's view, Takumi was already an adult.
He should give this unmarried girl a red envelope.
Hearing Hu Tao's words, Takumi immediately rolled his eyes.
However, he was not stingy.
He took out a red envelope and handed it to her.
"Happy New Year."
The red envelope was thick.
There were several thousand Mora inside.
This amount of money was nothing to Hu Tao.
What she wanted was a good start.
After receiving the red envelope from Takumi,
the smile on Hu Tao's face became even brighter.
She immediately looked toward Ningguang and the others.
Seeing this, Ningguang and the rest rolled their eyes.
"Here."
"Happy New Year."
Ningguang also took out a red envelope and handed it to Hu Tao.
Next was keqing, then Shenhe.
One by one, Hu Tao received many red envelopes.
Seeing her smiling so happily, Takumi pushed Klee forward.
"Klee, wish Sister Hu Tao a Happy New Year."
"And you too."
Hearing this, Hu Tao froze on the spot.
