Chapter 389 The Boy's Thoughts

No one would dislike Sister Nian Nian, right?

Han Shiyi thought about what Ruoruo said. It should be true. No one would dislike Nian Nian, but liking someone doesn’t mean you have to get her.

Han Shiyi took his sister out to play. He wanted to buy everything he saw for his sister, but Ruoruo shook her head and refused.

"My sister bought it for me..."

"My eldest brother and second brother also bought this for me..."

No matter what Han Shiyi said to buy, Ruoruo seemed to have it, and he looked very frustrated.

Perhaps Ruoruo also noticed Han Shiyi's frustration, so she said, "Buy me a peach wood hairpin." Coincidentally, there was an old woman selling peach wood hairpins on the street.

A peach wood hairpin costs ten cents.

This peach wood hairpin is very simple. It is a wooden hairpin carved from peach wood and has a very simple shape.

Peach wood hairpins like this are only bought by poor families.

Ruoruo and Nian Nian have never had such cheap wooden hairpins in their jewelry.

So when Ruoruo saw it for the first time, she actually thought it was pretty good.

Han Shiyi went to buy it.

He bought two.

He thought that if there was one for Ruoruo, he should give it to his sister Nian Nian, but this wooden hairpin was too cheap and did not seem to match Nian Nian's status at all.

When Ruoruo saw that Han Shiyi bought two, she asked, Brother, I only needed one, why did you buy two?

Without waiting for Han Shiyi to answer, Ruoruo said, she must give one to Sister Nian Nian.

Han Shiyi didn't know what to say.

The first time I give a girl a gift, I give her such a cheap wooden hairpin. Will she accept it?

Maybe she would accept it, as she was so considerate and never refused anyone. But after accepting it, she would probably put the hairpin away and not wear it.

I wandered around for a long time but didn't buy anything valuable.

Fortunately, when Han Shiyi went out this morning, he took all the money he had saved over the years with him.

His family was originally quite wealthy, even rich enough to rival a country.

But because of a traitor in the villa, his family was wiped out and the wealth accumulated in the villa for decades was looted. He and his sister were fleeing and starving. Only then did he realize the value of money and food.

Now he has been in the military camp for four years, and the silver he has accumulated is only a few hundred yuan.

But Ruoruo told him that every year, she received New Year's money from her adoptive parents, her second uncle and his wife, her aunt and uncle, and Mrs. Zhao, as well as red envelopes she received on her birthday. She has now saved up more than three thousand taels.

On the way back, Han Shiyi remained silent.

He knew that Ruoruo was well taken care of, but he didn't expect that she would live so well, so well that Ruoruo didn't need him as a brother at all.

Han Shiyi took his sister directly back to the Marquis' Mansion. On the way back, Han Shiyi told Ruoruo that when he was free in a few days, he would take her to meet his fellow friends.

Ruoruo said yes.

No matter what, this is her own brother. After getting along with him for a long time, Ruoruo is still willing to listen to her brother.

When Han Shiyi gave the wooden hairpin to Nian Nian, Ruoruo and the Chen brothers were all present. If he gave it like this, it would be just a small toy. If he gave it privately, it would be a private gift, and if someone saw it, it would definitely damage Miss Nian Nian's reputation.

"I took Ruoruo shopping today. Sister Nian Nian was busy and didn't go. I wanted to buy some things for Ruoruo. Ruoruo said she had everything. Her brothers and sisters loved her. Even sister Qiqi would think of her when she had something fun."

"This hairpin of mine looks cheap, but it's still a toy. Sister Nian Nian can just play with it."

Hearing that there was a jade mine in Mobei, he wanted to go back to Mobei to take a look. If, if there was a chance, he would personally make a set of jewelry for his sister Nian Nian.

Of course there is also Ruoruo's.

Nian Nian looked at the wooden hairpin and said with a smile, "Brother Han loves me and Ruoruo equally, so how could I dislike him? Nian Nian thanks Brother Han."

"As long as my sister doesn't mind."

Nian Nian didn't dislike him at all, but she didn't have any other thoughts about Han Shiyi. However, there was something subtle in the way Han Shiyi looked at her, and Nian Nian, who was very observant, naturally noticed it.

But she couldn't say these words directly.

She won't be attracted to anyone.

No matter how much Han Shiyi likes her, she will not be moved by other people's liking.

She had only one goal in her life, which was to live to the end of her life and live a good life. As for getting married and having children, she had never thought about it.

Han Shiyi seemed to understand something when he heard Nian Nian say this.

Brother Han loves me and Ruoruo equally...

Did she know that he had feelings for her that he shouldn't have? So she said this to reject him.

Han Shiyi's face turned red with embarrassment, as if someone had seen through his inner thoughts.

In the following days, Han Shiyi rarely appeared in front of Nian Nian. If he had something to do, he would go to Chen Jingyan. He had a good relationship with the Chen brothers in private, but he would never go to Nian Nian in private.

Even when he went to see Ruoruo, he would ask Chen Yang or Si Nian to help him pass on a message.

Nian Nian didn't take it seriously and continued doing her own thing.
