Chapter 274: Zhou Shigong with a bitter face
If you adopt or not, I'm afraid it's not Jin Jiashu's turn to decide on this matter.
The Zhenguo Mansion may not be able to decide.
Haitang said: "This matter probably depends on what the palace means after receiving the letter from Chang'an." If Concubine Xu Xian wants Jin Jiashu, the 'nephew', to stay in Chang'an, the Zhenguo Mansion will make arrangements. And before that, Jin Jiashu still stayed in Beizhuang to recuperate from his injuries. β
Haijiao sighed: "Today, Jin Jiashu also asked his aunt and grandfather, he has been staying in Beizhuang to disturb, and his heart is uneasy, can he buy real estate in Chang'an City on his own?" Since he is not familiar with the place in Chang'an, it would be better if the Zhou family was willing to inquire on his behalf. But my aunt and grandfather refused to agree, and I guess they didn't dare to call the shots. β
The sons of General Tuesday and General Thursday were a little surprised when they heard Jin Jiashu's words. They probably didn't expect that Jin Jiashu, a half-grown child younger than them, was still injured, had difficulty moving, and had no relatives and servants around him, so he would have the idea of living alone. Although the Zhou family's three-room village is far away from the city, there are villagers and servants here to take care of him, and veterans can also guard his safety. If he moves out and lives in his own house, I'm afraid the living conditions will not be so good. His personal safety alone may not be guaranteed.
Zhou Shigong refused to help Jin Jiashu buy property, and the two young masters of the Zhenguo Mansion also advised Jin Jiashu to take care of his injuries in another village with peace of mind. Haijiao looked at Jin Jiashu's disappointed and lonely appearance, and felt uncomfortable, and then asked him behind the other people's back, what are his plans for the future?
But Jin Jiashu was probably also waiting for a reply from his relatives, and he didn't have any idea in his heart. It's just that the reef is testing his tone, and he should still be inclined to buy property and live on his own, rather than staying under the wing of the Zhou family and accepting shelter.
Haijiao felt that the Sun family was still arrogant, and he didn't know if he would send killers to Chang'an to harm people again. Jin Jiashu will be safer if he stays on the territory of the Zhou family. Even if he is not used to sending people under the fence, it is better to stay up until his injuries heal, otherwise, if he encounters danger, it will be inconvenient for him to escape.
Haitang thought for a while: "Jin Jiashu has been separated from his biological mother since he was a child, his stepmother is unkind, his father has become half of his stepfather, and the people in the second room of the Jin family are still very unfriendly to him, he shouldn't be used to living a life under the fence, I think he probably has other ideas?" In fact, he now has money in his hands, and if he buys his own property in Chang'an City, and then buys a few honest and reliable servants to take care of his daily life, there is nothing wrong with it. It's always more comfortable to live in your own place than to live in someone else's house. As for the security problem, whether he paid for the guards himself, or the Zhou family sent a few veterans to guard around his house, it could be solved.
"If the Sun family can openly mess around in Chang'an City, there is no need to trick Jin Juren out of the city to kill him that day. In fact, I think Chang'an City is safer than Bezhuang. After all, Beizhuang is too remote and the place is too big. If there is a killer sneaking into the village to kill people, the veterans on the village may not be able to find out every time. Jin Jiashu now lives alone, and his situation is even more dangerous. He has been fine, also because Zhang Pinggui and his accomplices have been caught, and the rest of the people do not know where he lives, and the Sun family in the capital has not yet received news. β
Before the Sun family knew about his retreat, Jin Jiashu had moved away from Bezhuang.
Haijiao felt that Xiaomei's words made sense: "Indeed...... Now there are quite a few people who know that he lives in the three-room village of the Zhou family, and it is inevitable that someone will leak the news...... Even if the Sun family didn't send anyone over, they didn't know if they had caught the spies they planted in Chang'an. It's better for Jin Jiashu to move to a place that few people know, just contact our family and the Zhou family. If he was in the city, it would be convenient for him to see the doctor and grab medicine, and it would be easy for him to inquire about the news. Even if the Sun family really sent another killer over, the Zhenguo Mansion could also arrange someone to protect him. β
But Jin Jiashu is going to move into the city, and his injury has become the biggest problem.
Haitang asked Haijiao: "What happened to his injury?" Can't move at all? β
Haijiao replied: "It's not that you can't move, you just need to use crutches, you can't touch the injured leg, and the other leg that is not injured is fine." The doctor told him to move less so as not to affect the healing of the bones in his legs, and if he wanted to move his body, he only moved his upper body. A few days ago, when the weather was good, he was carried out into the yard by the veteran in charge of the guards to bask in the sun. He also asked me to teach him boxing, saying that if he learned it, even if he encountered bad guys, he would have some self-protection. β
If you can be carried around, you should be able to use a wheelchair, right?
Haitang tilted his head and thought for a while, and suddenly asked Haijiao a question: "Does my brother recognize any famous carpenters in Chang'an City?" Can you customize tables, chairs, carriages and the like? β
Haijiao blinked: "Does the little sister want to help Jin Jiashu customize a more stable carriage?" He had thought of this for a long time, and sent someone to inquire, found a suitable craftsman, and even paid the deposit. He made a lot of preparations to meet Aunt Jin in private, but I wrote to persuade him that he temporarily dismissed his idea, but the carriage continued to be made, and it can always be used in the future. If it goes well, it will be completed after the Lantern Festival. Today, Jin Jiashu asked me to go to the carpenter's house to see how the carriage was progressing. β
Haitang said: "Since this is the case, then my brother will go to the carpenter to take a look." If the carpenter is good and fast, when he has built the carriage, I will take care of another business for him. β
Haijiao asked what kind of business it was, but Begonia just smiled and didn't say anything. He had no choice but to give up and continue to talk about his experience in the other village.
Zhou Shigong chose to visit Jin Jiashu in Biezhuang on the first day of the Lunar New Year, under the banner of New Year's greetings, but in fact, he wanted to show goodwill. He not only wanted to defend himself, but also said a few good words for Zhou Shicheng, the younger brother born to Mrs. Ma.
He said that Zhou Shichang had been stationed outside for many years, and he didn't know anything about his mother and sister, and he was shocked when he found out, and he wrote several letters to his brother, advising his brother to be cautious, and never be blinded by family affection to shield his mother and sister who made mistakes. Even if it is a righteous annihilation, they must clearly recognize that they are always the children of the Zhou family, and no matter what they do, they must take into account the interests of the Zhou family and the overall situation of the military and people in the northwest.
Zhou Shigong was moved by his younger brother's deep understanding of righteousness, and in front of the bitter master Jin Jiashu, he couldn't help but intercede for his younger brother. It's just that Jin Jiashu doesn't care about the chaos inside the third room of the Zhou family, he doesn't even care that Mrs. Ma shielded the killer who wanted to kill him, anyway, in the end, she was also exposed and did not escape responsibility. As to whether her children are to be implicatedβit depends on what they have done. If Zhou Shicheng hadn't done anything, he naturally didn't need to take responsibility. And Zhou Shuyi did it...... She is not harming the Jin family, but the Zhou family and the Zeng family, and the Zhou family and the Zeng family decide what punishment she will accept.
Jin Jiashu thinks that he is an outsider and is not qualified to ask about the Zhou family's housework.
When Zhou Shigong heard this, he kept a bitter face. Of course, he didn't want Jin Jiashu to be an outsider to meddle in his own affairs, he just ...... If you want Jin Jiashu to be a messenger and convey his thoughts to the Zhenguo Gong and the old military division, it is best that even the Empress Dowager Zhou and Concubine Xu Xian can convey it, then it would be better.
He really didn't want his brother to be implicated by his stepmother and sister. There are too few people who can use the three rooms of the Zhou family now. The fourteenth room of the branch is completely opposite to the third room because of Mrs. Ma, Zhou Jinpu has been abolished, Zhou Jinlin is difficult to support alone, the age of the grandchildren is still too young, if Zhou Shicheng is lost again, Zhou Shigong feels that he can support the whole family alone, it will be too difficult. He really didn't want to see the decline of the third room......
