The second wife is charming to the bone, and Mr. Shen is very honest

Taotao didn't know what Sisi was talking about, or when he had any other thoughts about her. He was just afraid that he would get deeper and deeper into the trap, so he deliberately distanced himself from her.

Taotao looked at her with complicated eyes, then turned and left.

He stayed outside to watch over her until a light rain started to fall.

He could only go to her porch and watch the drizzle in the yard.

At this time, he and she were only separated by a door. Although it was windy outside, he didn't feel cold at all.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m close to her, but my heart feels warm, so my body isn’t cold anymore.

It drizzled all day long and into the night.

The next day, the weather finally cleared up.

The air was very fresh after the rain, and Sisi rarely walked out of the room.

When Taotao saw her come out, he immediately became unnatural.

Sisi: "I want to go to the market!"

Taotao: "Okay, I'll order someone to prepare the carriage."

Sisi: “Yeah!”

Taotao did not use a formal tone this time, for fear that she would think too much.

After a while, the carriage was ready.

Sisi walked in front and Taotao walked behind her.

When Sisi got on the carriage, Taotao hesitated whether to lend a hand to help her. However, just as he was about to lend a hand, Sisi had already gotten on.

Taotao pursed his lips and then sat in front of the carriage.

After a long time, they finally arrived at the market.

Taotao approached the car door curtain and said, "Miss, we're at the market!"

After hearing this, Sisi stood up and stuck her head out.

Seeing this, Taotao hurriedly jumped off the carriage.

When Sisi saw him get off, she prepared to get off the carriage.

Taotao couldn't help but help her when she got off the carriage.

Sisi didn't feel anything unnatural and just walked forward.

The two of them walked around the market one after the other, and after a while, Sisi saw a jewelry shop.

She walked right in. When the shop owner saw her, he immediately and enthusiastically took out his new jewelry.

Taotao noticed that she had been trying one of the hairpins on, but after she touched her pocket, she put the jewelry down directly.

"Why don't you want it anymore?"

Sisi: "Forget it. There are too many jewels in the house to wear them all." She forgot to bring her purse when she went out, so she didn't buy any.

After saying that, she just walked out.

Taotao took a look at the hairpin, then hurried to catch up with Sisi.

Sisi saw a man selling candied haws, but she just looked at them and pursed her lips, but didn't buy anything.

Taotao knew that her favorite food was candied haws, so he took the initiative to buy a few.

"Here, eat!"

Sisi glanced at him, then took the candied haws with an unnatural expression.

"I'll give you the silver when I get back."

Taotao: "I can still afford things that cost a few cents."

Sisi took a bite of the candied haws, then rolled her eyes at him and said, "That's right, you are now a lieutenant general and you can receive a salary."

Taotao finished speaking somewhat unnaturally: "I am not as good as the eldest lady, and I dare not show off my skills in front of her."

Sisi glanced at him sideways, then said unhappily, "You say that as if I dislike you. If I really disliked you, I wouldn't have played with you when we were kids."

Taotao: "But we have different identities. I must know that the eldest lady is different from me."

Sisi: "That's just what you think, but in my eyes, you're just the friend I grew up with."

"And you shouldn't think that your identity is any different. I think as long as you don't steal or rob, and prove yourself through your own efforts, you are great."

When Taotao heard that she treated him as a friend, he didn't know why, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but feel tears in his eyes.

He felt the same when he was young, but later his mother told him that there was a huge gap between their statuses. From then on, he no longer dared to hope for any close relationship with her.

Now that she suddenly said that she considered him a friend, he was naturally very touched.

In order to hide his embarrassment, he could only turn his face away.

"There's a place selling roasted sweet potatoes over there. Let me go buy some for you."

Sisi naturally noticed his awkwardness, so she just nodded slightly and followed him.

Taotao bought her a roasted sweet potato and some small things.

In short, after that shopping trip, the two of them obviously became less unfamiliar with each other.

Before leaving the market, Taotao secretly helped her buy the hairpin that she liked.

After returning to the palace, Taotao took out the buyao on his own initiative.

When Sisi saw the buyao, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

When did he buy it secretly?

Sisi: "Thank you. I'll give you the money when I get back..."

Taotao couldn't help but interrupt her and said, "I don't mean to ask you for money. This is a gift from me to you."

Sisi glanced at him, then lowered her head and said unnaturally: "Then...thank you!"

Taotao: "I have some sincere words to tell you."

Sisi raised her head and looked at him: "What?"

Taotao looked at her and took a deep breath: "There is one thing. When we were little, we were engaged. I actually took it seriously at first."

When Sisi heard this, her face couldn't help but blush.

Taotao: "Later I realized that it was just a joke among adults. My mother said that you are the master and I am the servant, and I shouldn't have any thoughts that I shouldn't have."

"So when you said yesterday that I had other thoughts, I really didn't dare to have any other thoughts."

"And I really realized my own ignorance, so I kept avoiding you for a while."

"I really don't hate you, it's just a very complicated feeling."

"Today you said that you still consider me a friend. I am really touched. I sincerely hope that we can be friends for life."

Sisi lowered her head with an ambiguous expression on her face. She never expected that he would say such a thing.

She originally thought that he would tell her something...

Well, what he said did explain his abnormal behavior during this period.

But she had never despised his background, so why did he feel that he was not worthy of her?

However, he had already said this, what else could she, a little girl, say?

Thinking of this, she suddenly raised her head and patted his shoulder.

"You're right, we will always be friends."

Taotao looked into her eyes and listened to her words, feeling sad and helpless.

"Ok!"

As they are young, they don’t understand love and are embarrassed to express their inner thoughts.

Therefore, a relatively peaceful way of getting along is what they all hope to see.

Taotao: "By the way, why were you angry some time ago?"
