In the early morning, the winter sky was still dark, with snowflakes falling from time to time.
Su Baoer stood up, opened the door, and walked through the bamboo forest to the kitchen.
There is a busy figure in the kitchen at this time.
"Brother Zhe," Su Baoer said in surprise.
"Morning, come over for dinner," Zhang Zhe was dressed in regular clothes and his hair was combed meticulously, just like him.
Su Baoer vaguely remembered that he was going to court today.
Facing Su Baoer's probing eyes, Zhang Zhe just curled his lips without explaining.
He went to the stove to serve food, and Su Baoer sat obediently next to him holding a small stool. Her little head followed him from time to time, her eyes wide open.
It really looked like a child, Zhang Zhe actually found it a little cute.
"It's ready to eat," Zhang Zhe put the things on the small table.
Su Baoer curled her lips and reached out to take it, when suddenly a chopstick lightly hit her hand.
"What's wrong?" Isn't it ready to be eaten?
"It's hot," Zhang Zhe looked into her aggrieved eyes and hesitated before giving her the uneaten buns in his bowl.
He thought she would wake up a little late, so after breakfast was ready, he put the things on the stove to warm, and only took a few things for himself to eat and put them outside to cool.
Seeing her taking it with a smile on her face, Zhang Zhe sighed inwardly, that's all, let's keep an extra piece outside in the future. It's not good to always be like this. Men and women are not close to each other. They are no longer children.
Su Baoer took a bite of the bun in her hand, her eyes instantly lit up, and the sugar water inside popped out. This was her favorite sugar bun.
"Thank you, brother Zhe."
Her brows were slightly curved and her voice was sweetened. She was completely different from the weak and helpless look when they first met. She was full of vitality at this moment.
Zhang Zhe breathed a sigh of relief, but he still had a serious face, "Put it in the bowl, and the candy will fall onto your dress in a while."
When Su Baoer heard this, he quickly put the buns and bowls together. Winter clothes are not easy to wash.
The moment she lowered her head, Zhang Zhe raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.
He vaguely remembered that this child liked to eat sweets as well as meat. The vegetarian dishes yesterday were probably not to her liking.
After staying in the officialdom for a long time, Zhang Zhe became a little distracted by everything around him. He knew that she didn't eat much.
When he was turning rice and noodles today, he suddenly saw the sugar in the cupboard. Thinking of her, he made a few more sugar buns.
He and his mother don't eat much candy, and candy is expensive here, so naturally they don't want to spend more, so that's all they have at home.
Seeing her happy expression, he couldn't help but think about whether he should buy more candies and store them at home so that his mother could eat more and this sweet-loving person could also eat more.
It was warm in the kitchen. Su Baoer took a sip of porridge and raised his eyes to look at Zhang Zhe's handsome face.
I sighed a little in my heart, I really don’t know who will marry him in the future? Su Baoer felt uncomfortable thinking about this.
After breakfast, Su Baoer sent Zhang Zhe to the door. The heavy snow fell and the cold man shivered.
Looking at his red court uniform, she always felt that something was missing.
"Brother Zhe, please wait for me."
Zhang Zhe turned around and saw Su Baoer running as fast as a gust of wind.
The ice formed on the cold ground crunched under her feet.
He frowned, running so fast in the winter, wouldn't it be easy for him to slip?
After a while, Su Baoer ran out holding a dark red cloak.
Zhang Zhe felt warm in his heart, his brows softened slightly, and he swallowed the words of reprimand that came to his lips.
Seeing the broken ice on the steps, he raised his eyebrows again, stepped forward quickly, and held her hand as she walked down the steps.
Why is it always so worrying?
Zhang Zhe couldn't help but said: "There is ice everywhere now, you can't run so recklessly."
Su Baoer wanted to say that she would not fall. Even if she fell, there would still be snow on the ground from last night. Although it was not thick, it would not be particularly painful.
But looking at Zhang Zhe's serious expression, her lips trembled a few times but she still didn't dare to say anything.
"Okay, just listen to Brother Zhe," Su Baoer lowered his head and responded softly.
Zhang Zhe took the cloak in her hand and paused. Looking at her with her head hanging down, he felt a little guilty, thinking that his tone was too harsh and scared this sister who had just lost her parents.
He lowered his head and could only see Su Baoer's soft hair. He hesitated for a moment, patted her head comfortingly, and softened his voice: "I will bring you delicious food when I come back."
"Thank you, brother Zhe."
Su Baoer pushed Zhang Zhe's back: "Brother, go quickly. Go early and come back early."
This man's mood changed so quickly. Zhang Zhe was a little relieved but also a little helpless.
When he thought of something, he suddenly turned around and ordered: "Winter is boring too. Remember to go to the study room to read more books at home. You can read travel notes, the Book of Songs, and even historical records."
