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

Chapter 508 The other side of the wall

Ma Shangyi actually came here when it was just getting dark.

At that time, Jin Jiashu had just finished dinner and followed Hai Jiao to Hai's house to talk, but he did not expect that he would shut down Ma Shangyi.

But Ma Shangyi didn't care either. If she was anxious to see Jin Jiashu, she could send someone to the Hai family to send a message and call him back immediately, but she did not take any action. Instead, while Jin Jiashu was not at home, she walked around the front and back yards of the Jin family's house, making plans in her mind. He had already figured out where he and Guard Lin would live in the future, what further arrangements he would make for the home, and even the expenses.

After that, she called over all the servants currently employed by the Jin family, including Zhou Xiaojian who didn't stay at the Jin family at night. She talks to everyone one-on-one, beating where they should be, giving instructions where they should be praised, praising where they should be praised, and giving rewards when they should be rewarded. She treats everyone obediently and keeps their mouths tightly shut. What happens in the house is spread outside, even to your own family and friends.

All these servants knew that she was the future chief steward of the Jin family, and even their master Jin Jiashu politely saluted her and did not dare to disobey her. Although they would definitely complain to the master later, Jin Jiashu would not reject her words anyway, and Ma Shangyi didn't care. Instead, she was happy to see that the servants of the Jin family were loyal to Jin Jiashu herself, and did not because of her strength as an outside manager. Then he recognized the wrong master.

Ma Shangyi knew that when she and Guard Lin moved in and got along day and night, many secrets would be difficult to keep. If we don't subdue the servants in this house as soon as possible, what if someone leaks the news? Even if the people in Chang'an don't know the true relationship between Jin Jiashu and Concubine Xu Xian, just knowing that Concubine Xu Xian has a "nephew" living in the city cannot stop those with ulterior motives from clinging to her. How could Jin Jiashu, a child, withstand the calculations of others?
Although the emperor is well prepared, everything is possible. Ma Shangyi hoped that she could spend the past few years by Jin Jiashu's side safely and smoothly without any trouble, otherwise she would be very sorry for the trust that the Queen Mother and Concubine Xu Xian had in her. If Jin Jiashu is living in the Zhenguo Duke's mansion, why should she worry about it? Unfortunately, Jin Jiashu had bought a property and settled down before she arrived. She couldn't let him abandon his own home and go live in someone else's home. She could only be careful about the people who interacted with him.

Ma Shangyi saw that it was getting late, and after giving Jin Jiashu a few words, he left first.

Seeing her leaving in a hurry, Jin Jiashu couldn't help but ask: "Mommy came to see the boy so late, but what are your orders?"

Ma Shangyi waved her hands: "It's nothing serious. I just came out of the third room of Zhou's house. I remembered that Mrs. Wu had just mentioned to me that her sister was my brother's neighbor and she had always taken good care of him. So I stopped by to have a look at him. Son."

Jin Jiashu hesitated for a moment, thinking that the Hai family had been paying attention to the situation of the third room of the Zhou family, so he asked carefully: "I heard that the eldest brother Haijiao mentioned the matter of the third room of the Zhou family. After the boy was injured, thanks to the third room of the Zhou family, he took the boy in to recuperate in the village. His family was able to save their lives by stopping the murderer. Both Mr. Wu and Mrs. Wu were kind to the boy. I wonder if... his family's lawsuit will be settled, right? "

Ma Shangyi smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, every injustice has its owner, and every debt has its owner. Your Majesty will never wrongly accuse an innocent person."

She refused to reveal any more information. Jin Jiashu was afraid of arousing her alarm and causing trouble to the Hai family and the third room of the Zhou family. He could not say anything more, so he politely sent her to the carriage. The soldiers escorted him all the way back.

Compared with the pomp and circumstance when Ma Shangyi visited last time, she only brought two soldiers of the Zhou family with her today. One drove and the other accompanied her. She really drove the car in a simple manner, probably because she didn't want to attract attention. But considering that she was just dropping by the Jin family today, and her original destination was the third room of the Zhou family, Jin Jiashu couldn't help but be curious, wondering what she was doing in the third room of the Zhou family in a low-key manner today? Did something happen to the third room of the Zhou family again? Could it be that she was going to deliver poison to Mrs. Ma?

Jin Jiashu knew that the Hai family was concerned about the third room of the Zhou family, and wanted to send a message to Haijiao immediately. But he also thought that it was late at night, and if he went out now, would it arouse the suspicion of the neighbors?
With this hesitation, the opportunity was lost. Zhou Xiaojian, Lu Gawa, mother and son ran out of the house and complained to him. He also knew what Ma Shangyi had done at his house today.

Zhou Dachang also left the house. Ma Shangyi didn't beat him today, she just said some words of encouragement and gave him a fine red seal. But he is a personal soldier of the Duke of Zhen, and he knows whose orders he should listen to, so he will not be moved by such a small favor. He was not an eloquent person, and he could see that Ma Shangyi did not have a bad intention, but was sincerely planning for Jin Jiashu. However, her actions still hurt the face of Jin Jiashu, the young family head, and also Some of them don’t take the town government seriously anymore. The Duke of Zhenguo didn't think there was anything wrong with the headmaster Jin Jiashu. How could she have so many thorns to pick from? He had to make it clear to Jin Jiashu that although Ma Shangyi came from Zhen Guo Gong's mansion, what she said did not represent what Zhen Guo Gong meant.

Jin Jiashu knew what was going on, so he calmed everyone down and let them go back to the house to rest. Even Zhou Xiaojian stayed in the house overnight to avoid him walking home at night and breaking the curfew. But after returning to his room in the backyard, Jin Jiashu remembered that Ma Shangyi stayed in the third room of Zhou's house until dark, and still couldn't let it go, so he quickly wrote a text message explaining the whole story, then carefully folded it and wrote "Shanghai" on the outside. After hearing Jiao's name, he held a lantern and took the letter to the jujube tree in the corner of the back garden.

They had mentioned this contact method before when they were joking with the Hai family brothers and sisters. At that time, they were just talking about it for fun, but it may not be necessary. I just don’t know if Sister Hai still remembers it...

Jin Jiashu found a stone from the ground, pulled out a long grass stem, tied the credit grass stem to the stone, looked at the wall with a lantern, estimated the direction, and threw the stone and the letter together.

Haitang had just finished talking to her brother, told him the latest news about Zhou's third room today, and then returned to the backyard.

The lanterns hanging under the eaves emitted a dim light, vaguely illuminating the path to the backyard. Before she entered the house, she saw something thrown from the other side of the wall and fell to the ground under the wall.

She remembered that the other side of the wall was the back garden of Jin Jiashu's house, so this thing...was Jin Jiashu throwing it over?
She walked over, picked up the thing, and found that it was a stone with a letter tied to a grass stem. The grass was almost broken, and her brother's name was written on the letter.

She understood in her heart that although she didn't know whether Jin Jiashu was still on the other side of the wall, in order to let him know that the letter had been delivered safely, she still coughed twice in response.

As soon as she finished coughing, Putao opened the door and came out: "The girl is back? Why are you coughing? But there is wind?"

Haitang smiled and said: "It's okay. I suddenly remembered that there was something I forgot to tell my brother. I will go back to find him and be back soon."

She turned around and ran out of the backyard. Only then did Putao react: "Huh? What are you so anxious about? It's so late. If you tell the young master tomorrow, it will be the same!"

On the other side of the wall, Jin Jiashu listened to the movements here and knew in his heart that the letter he had thrown over had successfully fallen into Haitang's hands.

It seems that this communication method proposed during joking still works! You just need to pay attention to the timing. If the letter falls into the hands of the girls, even if you can explain clearly that he is writing the letter to Haijiao, it will be somewhat troublesome. It just so happens that Ma Shangyi will move in soon...

Jin Jiashu lowered his head, thinking about how to improve this method of contact, and slowly walked towards his residence holding a lamp.
