After Si Tian finished eating and left, Zhu Qinghao took out a lot of pork belly from her spatial storage, intending to make some to send to her family and share some with Grandpa Sheng later.
She went out for some fresh air during a break from her busy schedule and saw someone struggling to walk towards her in the wind and snow.
I stared at it for a while before realizing it was a postman.
Without even guessing, Zhu Qinghao knew that Xiang Yu had probably sent her another letter or something.
She looked at the swirling snow and howling wind outside, then glanced at the figure slowly moving through the snow, and frowned.
After noticing the distance between the postman and her doorstep, she estimated the time, went back inside, poured a bowl of hot water, added a little sugar, and then brought it to the door.
As a result, the two arrived at the gate of the courtyard at almost the same time.
"Excuse me, is this Comrade Zhu Qinghao? There is a letter and a package for you."
"Yes, that's me. Here, take this. This is hot water. Have a couple of sips to warm yourself up. It's so cold here. You've really gone to a lot of trouble to bring us things in this freezing weather."
Upon hearing this, the postman quickly took the bowl from Zhu Qinghao, his face clearly showing his flattery.
"This, this is too much..."
Zhu Qing smiled kindly and gestured for him to drink quickly.
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Drink up, it'll cool down soon, it shouldn't be too hot anymore, it's been a while."
The young postman held the bowl in both hands, his lips, which were almost chapped, parted in a genuine smile.
"Well then, thank you, Comrade Zhu."
He was indeed freezing, but he never expected that someone would notice his feelings and even prepare hot water for him.
Thinking of this, he felt extremely comforted, and he even completely forgot the cold he had felt while walking on the road.
After a few moments of reflection, he picked up the bowl of water and began to drink.
But when he took a sip, he discovered that the water was actually sweet!
He looked up in surprise and immediately saw Zhu Qinghao's gentle smiling face. He quickly lowered his head again and continued drinking water.
After the bowl was emptied, he returned it to Zhu Qinghao, took his leave, and departed.
He didn't know if the water was too hot or what, but he felt hot all over after drinking it, especially his face.
Thinking of Zhu Qinghao's dazzling smile, he didn't even dare to turn his head and ran a long way in one breath.
When he finally found an opportunity to casually turn around, Zhu Qinghao's small courtyard was now just a small outline in his eyes.
He glanced at it once, then turned and left.
On the way back, he felt extremely good, and even when he was complained about later, he wasn't particularly angry.
And the source of all this was simply a bowl of hot water.
After the postman left, Zhu Qinghao couldn't wait to go back inside and open the package.
She didn't even pay much attention to what was in the package; the first thing she opened was the thick envelope.
As always, Xiang Yu's letter did not disappoint. As Zhu Qinghao read the letter, the corners of her mouth turned up higher and higher.
However, her expression turned serious as she read on.
What happened? The Liu family's affair was exposed just like that? Lu Rou died just like that? Liu Yansong was demoted just like that?
