After the whole family was swept away, I lay down flat

Chapter 424 Writing a Letter
When Ma got up early the next morning, she started to prepare for another trip to the third room of Zhou's house.

In order to make her trip more efficient, she did not forget to send Uncle Cui and Aunt Cui to visit some elderly members of the Ma family. Especially those people who are close to the old aunt's blood. They should have the inheritance rights of the old aunt's property, but they were snatched away by Mrs. Ma. Although they also used this to get into the Zhou family, they have not lived well these years. Very happy, I must have a lot of resentment in my heart. If there are older ones among them, they should know more about what Mrs. Ma was like when she first arrived at Ma's house, right? Maybe she will be more motivated and willing to dig out her true origins?
Hai Chang'an went to work at Chang'an Guard Health School, and Ma also told him to take a day off for Hai Jiao because of family matters. Although Hai Chang'an agreed, he still couldn't help but said to his adoptive mother: "If mother has something to send someone, it's okay to call her son. My son is almost thirty years old, wouldn't he be easier to handle than Baoshun? He is one and a half years old. “Children, it’s not very convenient many times.”

Ma smiled and coaxed him: "Mom, I know that if something big happens, I will call you. Isn't this a big thing? It's just trivial. It's enough to call Baoshun to run errands. Where is the need for you? Hurry up. Go to the School of Health and work, don't miss your classes. It's rare to have a good job, and you will be promoted steadily in the future, so there can be no mistakes! "

Hai Changan was helpless. He knew that it was difficult for him to become an official in Chang'an, and he finally came across a decent opportunity. His adoptive parents hoped that he could seize it and stop wasting his youth at home. But to be honest, he really didn't care. It is great to teach military students in health education, but it is equally enjoyable to stay at home and spend time with your family. It's not that he doesn't care about work, he just hopes that his family can use him when they encounter difficulties. He is also a member of the Hai family. His adoptive mother should treat him as her own son. When it is time to handle him, she should handle him!

Hai Changan sighed secretly, but went out to work obediently. His father is not at home, the elders are all old, and the nephews and nieces are still young. At this time, he is young and strong enough to hold up the lintel. Even if you can't help your mother run errands, you can still help her get some information at the health school.

Not long after Hai Changan left, the two elders Cao Gengyun and Lu Bainian came back.

Xie Wenzai still stayed in the Zhenguo Palace to help improve the follow-up plan, while the two of them were idlers and could leave after contributing their own ideas. They also rested early at the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion last night and slept soundly. They came back after eating the delicious breakfast provided by the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion in the morning. Compared with Xie Wenzai, it can be said that they were much more leisurely.

When Ma learned that they were back, he quickly sent his grandson Haijiao to the front yard to say hello to them. By the way, he asked if there were any new regulations at the Zhenguo Palace?

Haijiao had this intention and immediately went to the front yard. Unexpectedly, when he passed by the second courtyard on the way, he found that the two elders Cao and Lu were talking in the Jinjia tree house.

Lu Bainian is advising Jin Jiashu that if there is any new letter he wants to write to his aunt Xu Xianfei, he should write it as soon as possible, because the Zhenguo Duke's office is about to send a messenger to the capital again, so he can send it there along the way. If you miss this opportunity, you don’t know when the next time will be.

He said to Jin Jiashu: "You say that you will write to your aunt all the time, but in fact you have never written seriously a few times. Except for the report of safety a year ago, when you were in danger after the spring, it was because the general was going to Beijing on Thursday, and you could send her a letter along the way. You just wrote the letter after a while, otherwise you just wrote it and didn’t plan to send it out at all, right? "

Jin Jiashu blushed slightly. However, Lu Bainian has often taught him lessons recently, and the two of them have become familiar with each other, so he can speak more frankly: "For trivial matters at home, I really don't always bother the Zhenguo Government. If it is not an important matter, there is no need for me. Go and disturb your aunt..."

Cao Gengyun said disapprovingly: "Your aunt wants to know about you! You are a half-year-old child, living alone in Chang'an. You have been injured before, and you have also encountered deadly villains. How could she do this in the palace?" Not worried about you? Telling her more about your current situation can also let her know how you are doing. Otherwise, she will only become more worried about you if there is no news. The Enhou Mansion is in contact, so it won’t be a big deal to send you two letters. But you have to take the initiative, and you can’t expect them to come over and ask you every time they need to send someone to Beijing to deliver a letter.”

Jin Jiashu bowed his head and accepted the instruction, but he felt that the things that really needed to be reported to his "aunt" Xu Xianfei were clearly stated in the letter last time, and there was really nothing to mention at the moment. This time the Duke of Zhenguo is delivering a letter to the capital, so there is no need for him to take a ride again, right? Lu Bainian disagreed: "How could it not be the case? You have already bought a house in the long-term resettlement, and you are about to move into a new home. From now on, you will be the head of the family, and you have also started to study with Lao Xie. Whether it is buying a house or starting a career, Isn’t it a serious matter? Why don’t you report it to your aunt?”

Jin Jiashu showed an expression of sudden realization and nodded obediently. He said he would write a letter home as soon as possible and send it to the town government office. He would write it right away!
The two elders Cao and Lu nodded with satisfaction, gave him some pointers on his homework, and then returned to the front yard.

At this time, Hai Jiao walked out from the main room in the second courtyard. He looked thoughtfully at the backs of the two elders, and then at Jin Jiashu. He could vaguely guess the elders' intention in asking the latter to write a family letter. .

He didn't go in, but said hello to Jin Jiashu outside the window: "Xiao Jin, I have something to ask you later, please wait for me for a moment." Then he hurried to the front yard.

Although Jin Jiashu felt confused, since Hai Jiao said he would come to him, he just had to wait a little longer, so there was no need to worry. The key is the current letter home. How should I write it? Didn't the two old gentlemen Cao and Lu just come back from Zhenguo Duke's Mansion? They came to him specially and asked him to write a letter to his "aunt", but what did the town government need his letter for? What they want to do won't be detrimental to "aunt", right?

Hai Jiao also asked similar questions to the two elders Cao and Lu: "Is asking Jin Jiashu to write a letter to give the Zhenguo government's courier a reason to come to Beijing?"

Cao Gengyun said with a smile: "Just by the way, the Zhenguo Palace wants to send a message to the Chengenhou Palace. Isn't it an honest matter for one's own family to find one's own family? Do you need to borrow the banner of Concubine Xu Xian again? It's not allowed! However, the Zhenguo Palace is not Having decided to support the eighth prince's succession, Concubine Xu Xian couldn't just watch. She had to give Jin Jiashu a letter to Concubine Xu. This was also to let Concubine Xu know that her nephew was living well in Chang'an. He didn't depend on anyone and had bought property. You have bought a house, are in charge of the house, and have famous teachers to guide you in your studies. As long as you are willing to learn, your future will be bright.

"She accepted the favor of the Zhou family and helped speak well of the Zhou family in front of the emperor. Is it natural? She was originally a palace servant next to the Queen Mother, but the Zhou family never said that they did not support her mother and son. Since everyone is on her own, she shouldn’t be lazy. She can’t just sit around and do nothing while others put her son on the throne, right?”

Hai Jiao blinked: "Is this... you want Concubine Xu Xian to put in a good word for the Zhou family in front of the emperor?"

"Not only that." Lu Bainian said with a slight smile, "The Duke of Zhenguo wants to take the initiative to express his loyalty to the emperor and is willing to support the eighth prince's succession. This is not in line with the emperor's original plan. In order to prevent our majesty from taking advantage of the situation again, he should have done something wrong. A considerate Jie Yuhua is naturally indispensable. This is for the sake of her son’s throne! Shouldn’t she persuade the emperor more? Don't you always think about throwing dirt on the hero? There is no need to add unnecessary twists and turns to things that can already be done naturally!"
