A gust of cold wind blew by, and Su Baoer shivered twice. It was winter now, and there was a heavy snowfall every few days.
Only then did Zhang Zhe notice that even though it was winter, Su Baoer was still wearing an autumn sweater, so it was impossible not to get sick.
He sighed, took off his cloak and put it on Su Baoer.
"It's cold in winter, so remember to put on extra clothes."
Su Baoer nodded obediently. In fact, her winter clothes were all bought in previous years. Most of them were brightly colored clothes, but now she could no longer wear them due to her status.
On the second day, Su Baoer was still wearing autumn clothes. Zhang Zhe guessed something and went out for a while.
Just at this moment, some outsiders entered the courtyard.
Su Baoer was among a group of tall people, with a fragile expression and tears hanging on her eyelashes. She was so weak and helpless, so pitiful that it made people's hearts tremble and feel uncomfortable.
This is what Zhang Zhe saw when he came back.
"What are you doing here?"
He frowned, put down his things, and stood in front of Su Baoer with a strong stance to protect her.
"Which kid are you from to interfere with our family affairs?"
"If you break into private houses and bully orphan girls because of the crowd, the government can arrest you."
Zhang Zhe doesn't like to use power to oppress others. He glanced at the trembling and frightened people behind him and sighed in his heart. They had to do this when they met bad people.
"I am Zhang Zhe, the director of Jiangxi Qing History in the Ministry of Punishment."
Zhang Zhe's voice was sonorous and powerful, with convincing power.
Su Bao'er was a commoner. She didn't know what official position he had, and she didn't know whether Zhang Zhe's official position was high or not. But at this moment, her eyes were shining when she looked at Zhang Zhe.
I knew that my sister-in-law's nephew was promising, but I didn't know that he was an official.
The powerless and unscrupulous people were afraid of officials to death. As soon as Zhang Zhe finished speaking, they had already disappeared without a trace.
He glanced around. The originally clean and tidy courtyard was now in a mess.
"Now that the things here are sold, how about you follow me to the capital?"
"Okay," Su Baoer nodded. She smiled for the first time in these days, and choked up her sobs at Zhang Zhe's back as he went to pack his things: "Thank you, Brother Zhe, for not abandoning me."
Zhang Zhe stopped and said, "Don't worry about this. Take good care of yourself so that you can be worthy of yourself and your parents."
The newly bought clothes in the store were placed in a conspicuous place on the table by Zhang Zhe, and Su Baoer happened to see them when he was packing his things.
When she opened it, she saw two light green winter coats inside. She pursed her lips and smiled. Although Brother Zhe often had a serious face, he was actually very gentle and considerate at heart.
Su Bao'er took it in and put it on. The original dull color made her look more gentle when she wore it. It was just a little baggy, but she could still wear it.
Zhang Zhe, who was tidying up the room, glanced back and saw Su Baoer's new clothes.
His expression changed slightly, and he turned his head and continued doing his own thing.
When buying clothes, the boss asked him what size he wanted. He didn't know and said he was a little thin. The clerk actually teased him and asked him to call his wife to buy it.
Zhang Zhe blushed a little when he thought of these.
"Brother Zhe, thank you," Su Baoer came over wearing new clothes.
"No, if you need anything, just tell me."
Zhang Zhe helped sell the yard and the things in the yard. If he didn't buy it, when Su Baoer came back later, the yard would already belong to those people.
Before leaving, Su Baoer visited his parents again, and then went to Beijing with Zhang Zhe in a carriage.
In the carriage, Zhang Zhe kept reading, while Su Baoer sat bored and looked at his rich and handsome face.
The bleak scenery in winter was nothing to look at, not to mention it was very cold outside. Su Baoer didn't want to open the window and look outside, so he could only sit blankly in the carriage and look at the only person in the carriage besides her.
While distracted, Zhang Zhe suddenly handed over a book.
"If you're bored, you can read a book. Reading can help you gain clarity and wisdom. It's also good for you to read more."
Su Baoer took the book, looked at the big characters on it, and read out clearly: "The Law of Daqian."
She widened her pupils and looked at Zhang Zhe in confusion. Seeing that he was so obsessed with reading that he didn't notice anything, she had no choice but to take the book and read it a few times.
Not a minute later, when Zhang Zhe put down the book and was about to pour himself a glass of water, he looked up and saw that Su Baoer had closed his eyes, hanging his head sometimes like a chicken pecking at rice.
Zhang Zhe chuckled. Sure enough, this was still a little girl.
The carriage reached a bumpy road and the carriage shook violently. Su Baoer's body fell to one side. If he fell, he would definitely have a bruised nose and face.
Girls care about their appearance the most, and they will definitely be sad if they get hurt.
Zhang Zhe hurriedly walked to her place, silently said "I'm rude", and held Su Baoer in his arms.
The bumpy carriage did not wake Su Baoer, she still slept soundly, only the book called Daqian Law fell on the wooden board of the carriage.
