If it were the pink hair clip, she could vaguely sense why Zhan Xiuchen had given it to her.

Shi Nian couldn't guess what the next gift would be.

Because she never mentioned it to anyone.

Including grandparents.

Red hair tie.

A tin pencil case printed with an image of a princess.

It can be kneaded into any shape.

These are items that nobody wants nowadays.

These are incredibly cheap gadgets.

But it was what I longed for most when I was little.

These inexpensive gadgets are commonplace for the poor, even in slums.

These are things that many children own.

But I never had it.

She could only watch as Shigure possessed it.

She can't even touch it.

It's actually quite laughable when you think about it now that you're older.

What's so special about these little gadgets?

But as a child, it was something I longed for and yearned for, something I even dreamed about.

After all, when all the other children have it, and you are the only one who doesn't, how can you not yearn for it?

Shi Nian's heart was filled with turbulent waves.

Childhood memories and longings kept assailing her.

"How did you know?" Shi Nian asked.

Zhan Xiuchen learned about the pink hair clip from his grandmother.

He is smart enough.

So it's possible that she guessed it just from a few words from her grandmother.

But what about these?

Nobody knows!

No one could possibly know how much she longed for it!

After all, ever since she lost her dream of getting a pink hair clip, she would never say anything, no matter how much she longed for what other children had.

There wasn't even a longing look in his eyes.

It's just buried deep in my heart.

So how could Zhan Xiuchen possibly know?

“Children are just like adults; they always have many desires,” Zhan Xiu said.

Therefore, after learning from Grandma Shi that Shi Nian had once longed for a pink hair clip, Zhan Xiuchen guessed that Shi Nian's desire as a child was not just for a pink hair clip.

After all, she longs for even a simple pink hair clip, so what about anything else?

She probably doesn't have many of these things.

And young Shi Nian would certainly have longed for it.

But Zhan Xiuchen couldn't find out what Shi Nian still longed for from Shi's grandparents.

But children of that age generally follow the crowd.

So what was popular among children in that era was probably what they longed for and desired.

Therefore, Zhan Xiuchen specially sent people to investigate and then prepared these gifts one by one.

He knew that Shi Nian had no interest in the luxury bags and jewelry that most women liked.

But these things that she lacked as a child, if given to Shi Nian now, even if Shi Nian can't use them, may fill a void and regret in her heart.

........

When Shi Nian heard how Zhan Xiuchen guessed that these little trinkets were what she had longed for as a child, she was stunned.

All she knew was that Zhan Xiuchen was intelligent.

But I never expected that the man was not only intelligent, but also so thoughtful.

After a few seconds of stunned silence, Shi Nian felt another surge of emotion.

She realized that preparing all of this would not be easy.

First of all, Zhan Xiuchen was a nobleman.

Being a child of the nobility is naturally very different from being a child of the slums.

These cheap gadgets were popular among children in the slums at the time.

But the children of nobles probably have never even seen one.

Even if they saw it, they wouldn't give it a second thought.

Therefore, it was not an easy task for Zhan Xiuchen to investigate what children liked and what was popular in her childhood.

Moreover, Zhan Xiuchen's prepared gifts were so precise.

This clearly shows that he didn't just consult one or two people; he must have consulted many people to be able to prepare so precisely.

In addition, most of the factories that manufacture these gadgets have probably gone out of business after so many years.

Even if it doesn't go bankrupt, it might not produce the same model again.

But Zhan Xiuchen laid out all the trinkets that were popular among those children back then in front of her.

The effort, manpower, money, and time required for this are unimaginable.

"This hair clip, I guess it's no longer for sale," Shi Nian suddenly said after a long while.

This pink hair clip, which she once longed for most, would probably look terrible on kids today, so the manufacturer probably won't be producing it anymore.

“And this hair tie, this pencil case.” Shi Nian picked them up one by one: “I don’t think they can be produced anymore.”

Zhan Xiu smiled and didn't say anything more.

"So how did you do that?" Shi Nian asked.

"Have the manufacturer restart the production line," Zhan Xiu said. "Resume production."

A look of astonishment appeared in Shi Nian's eyes.

Good heavens!

How much would that cost!

“These things are worthless,” Shi Nian said. “But you’re spending a lot of money doing this.”

"A treasure is worth more than a thousand pieces of gold," Zhan Xiu said solemnly.

This favorite thing of his was naturally not his.

It is read aloud at the time.

Even though so many years have passed.

But people will always cherish the things they couldn't have when they were young.

Even tormented by it for a lifetime.

Even if they are just cheap little gadgets.

“That’s a waste,” Shi Nian said.

Zhan Xiuchen's eyes reflected Shi Nian's figure. He said earnestly, "Shi Nian, I have never been a wasteful person, but for you, I am willing to waste money."

"No amount of money is as important as making you happy."
