Haijiao has long wanted to persuade Jin Jiashu to buy a house in Chang'an and officially move to the city.

Jin Jiashu lived in the three-room villa of the Zhou family before, and lived in a small village in the suburbs specially arranged by the old military division, but it was not until he moved into the Hai family that he settled in Chang'an City. He seems to be more accustomed to the life of the countryside, but life in the city is indeed more convenient, it is convenient to contact the Zhou family, it is convenient to meet friends, and it is also convenient to study and study. Haijiao and Zhou Yijun both persuaded him to buy a house or rent a house in the city, and he was not unmoved.

It's just that he still has concerns about the second room of the Jin family, and he is worried that when he lives in the city, he will be approached by them and entangled, so he is reluctant to make up his mind.

Recently, the prefect's yamen has had a series of major and important cases to be tried, and the small case in the second room of the Jin family cannot be ranked at all, and the physical evidence and documents involved in the case have to wait for the local government of Zunhua Prefecture, where the Jin family is from, to send them over, and the court will not be opened for a while and the case will not be judged. The second room of the Jin family had to stay in Chang'an, and the family rented an old house near the old temple to live. According to the news that the errand boys inquired about, Jin Xin was worried about money and had already visited the pawnshop twice. The belongings brought out by the second room of the Jin family from their hometown don't know how long they can carry it!

Jin Jiashu knew that Jin Xin's father and son had been asking about him everywhere, and the purpose was to ask for money. At present, he lives in the Hai family, and he is not worried that they will come to his door. But if he buys a house in the city, once the news leaks, it will be a clear target, if he attracts the second room of the Jin family, wouldn't it be very troublesome?

Jin Jiashu couldn't make up his mind for a long time, and he didn't want to refuse his friends' proposals, and now he was worried.

In the past, Haijiao just hoped that he would live closer, and it would be convenient for him to go back and forth in the future, as long as the friendship between the two sides was maintained, there would always be a chance to follow him after entering Beijing in the future. But he didn't have any special requirements for the address of Jin Jiashu's new house, as long as it was in the city.

But now, he doesn't think so.

Since he wanted Jin Jiashu to be their Hai family's neighbor, there were some things that he had to be more active.

The reef turned around and went out, working outside until it was dark before returning home. Haitang didn't know what he was going to do, after dinner, she was about to ask him, but she saw him give her a look: "Let's go talk to Xiaojin." ”

The brother and sister walked towards the second courtyard, and Lu Haijiao hurriedly explained to the younger sister: "I found a suitable property nearby, which told him to urge him to buy it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to find such a good place if he misses it." ”

Haitang stopped: "If you are looking for him to talk about the purchase of property, what do you ask me to do?" In the evening, even if you have your brother with you, it's not appropriate for me to meet him, right? It's time for grandma to be verbose. ”

Haijiao said: "What's this?" Zhen Guogong has withdrawn his own soldiers, and now in the second courtyard, except for Jin Jiashu, there is only a knife. The knife is our own family and does not talk nonsense. You follow me to see Xiaojin, and you don't have any taboos. Besides, I want you to tell him the news of Concubine Xu Xian, if you don't come forward, do you want me to tell him that I have read the correspondence in your girl's boudoir? ”

Haitang laughed dryly, and understood her brother's intentions: "Do you want him to discover the clues in Wu Qiong's letter by himself?" I'm afraid that he doesn't know the previous situation, and he won't think of the key point at all, and my brother has to find a way to guide him. ”

Of course, Haijiao will try to guide Jin Jiashu to think in the direction he wants, and he will continue to act as a smart good friend and help Jin Jiashu "come up with ideas".

The brother and sister came to the second courtyard and knocked on the door of the main house. Cui Xiaodao came to open the door, and Haijiao Haitang entered the house, only to find that Jin Jiashu was leaning against the wall to practice walking. He had been injured for three months, and now he didn't need crutches, and he could barely walk, but he couldn't walk fast.

Jin Jiashu couldn't help but show a surprised expression on his face when he saw their brother and sister visiting at night, and hurriedly invited them to take a seat, and asked Cui Xiaodao to pour tea.

Cui Xiaodao brought the tea, and then carried the wooden bucket to the kitchen to boil the bath water.

Haijiao took the opportunity to say to Jin Jiashu: "Didn't you say before that you want to find a house in the city, rent it or buy it, live closer to me and Zhou Yijun, and it will be convenient to go back and forth in the future?" ”

Jin Jiashu's eyes were a little empty: "Ah...... Yes...... "This was actually the suggestion of two friends, but he didn't refuse at the time, and he agreed to it, so he did have such an idea."

Haijiao didn't hear the ambiguity in his words, and said with a smile: "Today I heard a classmate in Weixue say that his cousin of a relative's family was transferred to Taiyuan with his boss last month, and recently wrote back, saying that he was a good family in Taiyuan, and he was going to buy a house in the local area to settle down, because he didn't have enough money on hand, so he planned to sell his house in Chang'an City." He had just started the house for two or three years, and he had repaired it when he bought it, and now there are at least eighty percent of the new ones, and the courtyard of the two entrances has eight or nine rooms, and it is more than enough for you to live in one and bring a few servants with you, and there is also vacant land to build a new house. My classmate's family is now selling the house on behalf of his cousin, and because the sale is urgent, the price can be said to be one hundred and fifty taels if the buyer is willing to pay the full amount of cash. What do you think? ”

Jin Jiashu was stunned: "This ......" one hundred and fifty taels of silver to buy a two-entry house in Chang'an City? It does sound like it's affordable, and he just happens to be short of cash......

Hai Jiao said: "You'd better make a decision quickly, such a good thing, if you miss it, you won't have to." I'm hoping you'll buy this house, it's right in our alley, across the street from our house, but the backyard is next to each other. I looked over the wall of our backyard and could see the big trees in his yard! ”

Haitang had been listening quietly on the sidelines, and when she heard the words, she hurriedly asked, "Is it the owner of the jujube tree?" That's pretty close. There is also a section of wall in the backyard of our two houses that overlaps. ”

"Yes, it's his house!" Haijiao smiled and turned to Jin Jiashu, "If you buy it and get so close, I can go to you with my feet up." Even if you are late at night, you are not afraid of curfew, and you can go home by climbing over the wall! ”

That makes it sound even more appealing.

Jin Jiashu subconsciously glanced at Haitang, but when Haitang noticed it, when he looked back, he had already looked away: "One hundred and fifty taels, two courtyards, and eighty percent new, it is indeed not expensive." I wonder if I can go and see it? ”

"No problem!" Haijiao had already told people, "You can go tomorrow." Wait for me to go to Weixue to say hello to my classmates, and I'll accompany you when I come back from school. Buying a house is a big deal, how can you do it without seeing it with your own eyes? ”

That's it.

Buying a house is just the beginning, and the next thing is the point.

Haijiao suddenly showed a somewhat hesitant expression, and said to Jin Jiashu, "What's that...... Since you have decided to settle down in the long-term settlement, you must also be planning to live in it for a long time, are you going to settle here? What about Kyori...... I don't know what the plan is? ”

Jin Jiashu blinked, and his expression did not change at all: "Why did Brother Hai suddenly ask about this?" Zhen Guogong said that he would arrange for me to settle down, and in the future, I would be able to take the imperial examination, and I would be able to go to the capital when I entered Beijing to catch the exam. But it's all a shadowless thing, God knows if I really have that ability? ”

Hai Jiao laughed dryly: "You are so smart, and with my cousin's guidance and homework, you will definitely be able to pass the exam!" Then he paused, "Actually...... The Miss Wu, who was taken hostage by the minions of the Sun family a few days ago, is now friendly with my little sister, and in her daily correspondence, she talks about some of the past events when she lived in the palace when she was a child, and it mentions ...... Your aunt ......"

Haijiao looked at Haitang, and Haitang took over the conversation knowingly: "Brother and I think that you may be interested in your aunt's affairs, and want to hear about her experience, and when we meet in the capital in the future, you can also learn more about her." ”
