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

Chapter 450 Preparing to Move
Jin Jiashu's new house has been renovated and furnished with new furniture. Now he just needs to buy daily necessities and he can move in at any time.

As soon as Lu Gawa and Widow Lu, mother and son, moved in, they immediately started their work.

The former is responsible for cleaning the whole house, renovating the garden, and purchasing daily necessities; the latter is responsible for the kitchen and is also capable of daily sweeping work. On the orders of Jin Jiashu, he also hires a woman from nearby to come to help with laundry every day.

Jin Jiashu has already begun to choose an auspicious day to officially move. Different from the leisurely time before, this time he seemed a little anxious. The scheduled date was two days later. For this reason, he went to a nearby restaurant to reserve a few tables and planned to invite the neighbors to have hot pot wine on the moving day.

After Ma knew about it, he quickly brought people to the door: "Why is the date so urgent? What does it matter if you stay at our house for a few more days? You can only put everything in order in your new house, and you haven't bought everything yet. "

Under her command, Aunt Cui and Ma Li's daughter-in-law worked together to add various curtain decorations to Jin Jiashu's main hall in the front yard and the main room in the backyard. They also placed many calligraphy, painting, bonsai, flower arrangements, and pots and pans in the kitchen. The basins and various sauces and condiments are all ready, and there is no shortage of rice, noodles, and diesel. Tea for daily drinking and high-end tea or noodle tea for entertaining distinguished guests are also purchased properly.

In the study specially opened by Jin Jiashu, Ma asked people to add many new books and the four treasures of the study. She also specially ordered someone to clean out an empty room in his backyard and decorate it into a simple small Buddhist hall. The memorial tablets of all the people who died in Jin's family room were originally enshrined in the temple in the city. Now they have been enshrined by Ma family and enshrined here. All kinds of incense, candles, paper money, and fragrant flowers are all arranged properly. It is convenient for Jinjiashu to offer incense and worship at any time.

After Mr. Ma spent a day helping Jin Jiashu tidy up the house, his new house can now be regarded as a real move-in. Even if he was about to entertain a distinguished guest like Magistrate Huang, he would not be rude in any way.

Jin Jiashu solemnly thanked Ma again. In fact, he had not originally planned to make his new home so unique. When he was in his hometown, the life of Jin's family was just that of a small rich man, and living in the country was not that particular. He originally thought that the new home would only need to be equipped with daily necessities, but he did not expect that Ma would help him pack it up so carefully. Nowadays, this home looks like the house of a wealthy scholar, which makes him a little uncomfortable.

Ma said disapprovingly: "What's the point? You are now a respectable scholar. Even if you live alone, you still have to look good. Otherwise, when guests come to visit you, they will see that your house is in a mess. What? No, what do you think? Isn't it that you don't even have a reliable elder around you? When the time comes, the Zhenguo government will be disgraced, and this familiar neighbor of ours will also make people gossip. "

Jin Jiashu is not the poor little boy he used to be in the countryside of Zunhua Prefecture, where his father did not love his mother. He was the nephew of Concubine Xu Xian, and the Duke of Zhenguo was ordered by the Empress Dowager Zhou to take care of his life in Chang'an City. It would be outrageous if the place where he lived was too simple and the life was too simple. If Concubine Xu Xian knew about it, she might even misunderstand that Chang'an didn't care about her relatives! The Zhenguo Duke's Mansion is from a family of generals, so they don't have that thoughtful idea, so that's it. The Hai family is an official family and they live next to the Jin family. How can they ignore everything? !

Jin Jiashu has lost his mother since he was a child, and now he is an orphan with no one to take care of his life. Although the people he hired were honest and reliable, they were only military dependents from poor families. How could they know how decent people lived? Ma believed that he had the responsibility to take care of these trivial matters for Jin Jiashu, so he didn't say a word and directly brought people to sort things out.

Jin Jiashu quickly understood Ma's kindness. He lowered his head in embarrassment and couldn't say anything else except thank you. Although he has been staying in other people's homes in the past few months, this kind of comfortable and elegant living environment is indeed something he doesn't understand. But he had to maintain this dignity for his "aunt" and prevent outsiders from misunderstanding the Zhenguo Palace and the Hai family. He would just learn from it slowly in the future...

Seeing that he accepted her arrangement meekly, Mrs. Ma was very happy, so she turned to Widow Lu and said, "Is the kitchen ready? What kind of food do you know how to cook? What kind of food do you plan to cook for Brother Jin?" "

Widow Lu had been dumbfounded for a long time, and she took a moment to react before she realized: "Yes, the kitchen has been tidied up, and we are going to make noodle soup in the evening, using mushrooms as a marinade. It is light and easy to digest."

Ma was not satisfied with what he heard: "Isn't it too bland? He is recovering from his injuries and is growing. He should add more meat and side dishes. Take your forehead to the kitchen and have a look." Widow Lu glanced at Jin Jiashu and saw him After nodding, he respectfully invited Ma: "Mrs. Hai, please come with me..."

Mrs. Ma happily rushed to the kitchen with her two confidants, and she was probably going to show Widow Lu some simple, delicious and nourishing dishes. Jin Jiashu thought of the delicious dishes he had eaten at Hai's house, and was quite looking forward to it. He turned around and saw Haitang looking at the flower trees in the yard, and couldn't help but smile: "Does Sister Hai like this tree? There are a few more in the backyard."

Haitang looked back at him and smiled: "The jujube trees in your house are growing well. It's the flowering season now, but not enough flowers have bloomed. When the weather gets warmer, the jujube trees will probably grow into trees. It will be very beautiful when the flowers are in bloom. It’s so lucky to be able to enjoy such a beautiful scenery without going out.”

Jin Jiashu said: "Whenever Sister Hai wants to enjoy the flowers, just come over at any time, no need to be polite. Now there are people looking after my house. No matter whether I am at home or not, there is someone who can open the door." He has already told Lu Gawa Mother and son, there is no need to put up any guard against everyone in the Hai family, and they can be allowed to come and go freely.

Haitang had just heard what he had told the Lu family mother and son, and couldn't help but laugh: "Our family also has to pay attention to the access control. How can you let people come in and out of your house at will? At least the backyard can't let outsiders come and go at will, right?"

Jin Jiashu was a little disapproving: "What's this? I had nothing, but you saved my life and took care of my life for several months. You also repaired my new house and bought a lot of things for me. Without your family, I would be alone. Without me today, you are not an outsider, what should I be prepared for?"

Haitang smiled: "You can't say that. In addition to our family, the Zhenguo Government has also always taken great care of you."

Jin Jiashu said with a smile: "Yes, the Duke of Guo has always taken good care of me. Brother Yijun also visited my new house and told me that the Duke of Guo will arrange someone to be my concierge and protect my safety." Once the concierge entered his house, his new home would naturally have no secrets from the Duke's Mansion. But the Hai family is different from the Zhenguo government. The town government will provide him with shelter, and the Hai family will care about him in his life and studies, making him more like a relative.

Haitang did not continue the topic. She only looked up at the budding yellow-green flowers mixed in the canopy of the jujube trees: "How many jujube trees are there in your backyard? I can see your backyard through the wall at home. The jujube trees are in bloom and have a sweet fragrance, which is very pleasant.”

Jinjiashu led her the way: "You come with me. There are three or four jujube trees in the backyard, all about the same height as this one. One of them is planted in the corner, and its flower branches can stretch over the other side of the wall. You will see it at my house. To be more clear, the scent is really fresh.”

Haitang followed him to the backyard and asked casually: "Speaking of which... why did Brother Jin set the moving date in such a hurry? You have always been taking your time before. I thought you were not in a hurry to move."

Jin Jiashu paused at his feet.
