Chapter 142: The Secret in the Bird's Nest

Su Shi picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, as if he had become more relaxed.

"Stone really didn't tell me what he was doing, but I knew that he was hiding some things from me, and those things might have something to do with it."

"What's going on here? Does the sister-in-law know where he hid those things? Can you show us? Su Momo said with a smile, glancing at Helian Li coldly, signaling him not to make a sound, just leave the matter of interrogation to her.

"I'll take you to find it." Su Shi got up, his expression was calm.

She led them through a small wooden gate on the right side of the courtyard, and soon reached the poplar grove behind the house, and then began to search one by one.

"Soon after Shi Stone had a part-time errand, I found that he sometimes came back with a heavy smell of fat powder, so I was worried that after he made more money, he would go out to fool around, so I paid special attention, and sometimes I would secretly follow him, wanting to see if he had gone to those places in the Qinglou, but every time I followed him there was no result, he was a fast catcher, and I was afraid that the matter of tracking would be discovered by him, which would affect the relationship between us as husband and wife, so I quickly dispelled the idea of tracking him."

"But then I began to pay close attention to him, and on a few occasions I found him sneaking towards the poplar grove at night, mysteriously, as if he were carrying something in his arms...... But the poplar forest is so big, I don't dare to follow too close, so I don't know where he hid things, I wanted to find a family member who was not at home to come here alone to find it, but there was no chance, later, Stone disappeared, for his business, the family was sad, I put this matter aside, and later, his body was found...... I was busy with his funeral, and I had to send his ashes back to his hometown for burial, so this matter has been delayed......"

"Now the officials are better, they can help the women to find ......"

"Sister-in-law, this poplar forest is really big, otherwise, the four of us, one person and one direction, start from the middle, the special idea is that there are no weeds or loose soil, if this poplar forest is really hidden by Shi Stone, then he must have buried something in the ground."

Helian Li to the east, Su Momo to the south, Anxin to the west, and Su to the north.

Helian Li soon walked to the edge of the poplar forest near the east, and along the way, he looked carefully, and there was no sign of any of them being turned over.

There is a small river here, the water is crystal clear, and the raised stones in the river have been smoothed by the current, and they have a dark sheen in the sun.

As far as the eye can see, the waves are sparkling, and there is still some grass on the shore, probably because of the good water here, and in this season, the grass is still green, without a trace of decay.

This Stone can't hide things in the river, right?

Helian Li planned to turn back and see if Su Momo and the others had found anything.

As soon as I turned around, I noticed a large bird's nest in the poplar tree in front of me. The birds are already flying south this season.

It's very hidden if you hide it in a bird's nest! Thinking about it, his feet kicked towards the trunk of the tree, and the slender figure was like a spirit ape, quickly rushing up, and as soon as he stretched out his arm, he came across a boxy box in the bird's nest.

He grabbed the trunk of the tree with one hand, and took the box off with the other, and at first glance, it was just a very ordinary wooden box, and the wooden box was wrapped in oiled paper. Stone is worthy of being a fast catcher, hiding things is also hidden in an unusual place, this bird's nest is seven or eight meters away from it, even a naughty boy can't climb so high to dig out the bird's nest, and his skill is very high, but it is easy to put things on the bird's nest.

When I opened the box, I saw that it was a little blind, and it contained only some precious things, including precious jewelry, spices, and palm-sized gold dust.

Gold dust is a very expensive thing, only the women in the palace or prominent families will occasionally use gold dust to decorate their makeup, ordinary people may not have seen it.

How can there be so many precious jewelry, as well as gold dust?

Especially gold powder, it is not that you can buy it if you have money, you can be qualified to use it, and a woman who can afford this kind of gold powder must have a grade in her body, even if it is in Chenwangfu, only Helian Li's biological mother has enjoyed such an honor, so Helian Li recognized it at a glance.

Picked up the gold powder box and looked at it carefully, and found that there were engraved words at the bottom of the box.

Isn't Shaoyangju a place to raise men and pet people to have fun? How can there be such an expensive gold dust?

After thinking about it, I felt that it was, the existence of Shaoyangju has always been despised by the world, so they are all very secretive in their business, since it is a secret way of operation, what are they afraid of using some illegal things? If these gold dust really come out of Shaoyang Curie, then it is very likely that the gold dust is used by the man inside, and the pet is used to please the guests.

Could it be that the part-time job that Stone did was related to Shaoyangju? Thinking about it, I feel that it is a little impossible, Shi Dong earns such a lot of money, if it is really earned in Shaoyang Residence, unless he goes in to be a man and a pet, but with Shi Stone's age, appearance, and experience, it is impossible.

Unable to figure it out for a while, Helian Li decided to put it aside first, and then wait for the opportunity to explore Shaoyang Residence, he quickly hid the contents of the wooden box on his body and walked back.

When he went back, Su Momo and the others would also go, and they were all dejected, and they didn't gain anything at first glance.

Su Shi seemed afraid that they wouldn't believe her, so she quickly explained, "The folk woman really saw Shi Dong sneakily going to the poplar forest with something in the middle of the night, and the folk woman really didn't dare to deceive the officials in the middle of the night." ”

"Sister-in-law, maybe it's too hidden and we haven't found it, in the future, please ask my sister-in-law to look for it again, if you find anything, remember to go to the Criminal Department to inform us." Su Momo smiled and comforted.

Su Shi hurriedly nodded, "The woman knows." ”

"I'd like to go to your bedroom." Helian Li said.

Su Momo immediately retorted: "I have already looked at the bedroom carefully, if you go to see it again, it will be a waste of time." He just didn't believe in her abilities, so how could she be convinced?

Helian Li ignored her, and the slender and sturdy figure quickly walked in the direction of the bedroom.

"Helian Li!" Su Momo screamed hatefully and followed.

When I arrived at the bedroom, I saw Helian Li standing in the center of the bedroom, quietly looking at everything in the room, just a bed, a wardrobe, two chairs, and a small desk, on which there were some objects for women to embroider.
