The two walked for a long time, and then they vaguely saw a courtyard, which occupied a large area, and it seemed that because of the white affair not long ago, there was a depression inside and outside the house.

The two came uninvited, and they were afraid of startling the snakes, so they naturally touched the wall to get in.

The Hu Mansion is depressed and deserted, and there are not many people, not only because of natural disasters but also because of the death of the male owner of the family.

Because there are not many servants, the two of them are much more relaxed in the empty mansion.

Hu Wenruo died before returning home, and it stands to reason that it is pointless to visit his old house now, but Hu Wenruo misses his family, and every few days a month he always takes a few days to travel back and forth between the two counties to accompany his family.

They don't know if this news is true or not, but as long as there is contact with the family, they will definitely leave some clues.

When the two came, it was also getting dark, and only a few courtyards in the Hu house were lit up with stars.

The two walked in disguise and soon found the study. Because the male owner has been absent for a long time, the study is actually more used by the female owner as an accounting room.

Li Shengxing lit a fire and rummaged in the room in the study, Rong Zhi mainly went to check the account books, while Li Shengxing groped up and down the inside of the room.

"Rong Xun's accounting speed is very fast." Seeing that Rong Zhi had finished reading the account book, Li Shengxing chuckled.

"It's not as good as Meng Niangzi."

Meng Kun's calculations are really fast.

"Is there anything unusual?" Li Shengxi didn't continue to be polite with him, and hurriedly asked.

"I don't see it for the time being, there are some ordinary items, most of them are some pacification silver sent by the Zhou family after Hu Wenruo's death, and it's nothing." Rong Zhi shook his head, and he smiled again, "But it's strange to say, this Madame Hu seems to be very happy about her husband's death."

"How?" Li Shengxun stopped what he was doing and asked with interest.

"Look at the words." Rong Zhi counted the ledger.

Li Shengxian carried the light and moved to Rong Zhi's side.

Rong Zhi flipped through the account book, "Words are like people, words can be lyrical, after Hu Wenruo's accident, Mrs. Hu's words are much lighter than before the accident, does this mean that Hu Wenruo's death is not a blow to Mrs. Hu?"

"When her husband dies and no one is in charge, the Zhou family will give a large sum of money in order to seal her mouth, so that she will have no worries about food and clothing in the future. That's a good thing." Li Shengxian muttered softly.

Rong Zhi's eyelids twitched when he heard this, and he said helplessly: "Although this is the case, there is only one thing as a premise, that is, the husband and wife must be in weak love, otherwise it will not be like this."

If something happens to his family, he can inherit the property left by his family, will he be more happy than sad? No, because he has a deep relationship with his family. On the contrary, if he has no affection for his family, and can even be said to be on the same footing, then he will naturally be overjoyed in the face of the death of his family and the huge inheritance left by his family.

"If Hu Wenruo returns home every month, it stands to reason that how can he be emotionally weak. Not to mention how good it is, but at least there is some affection." Li Shengxing frowned.

"That's my guess, and I don't have to do it." Rong Zhi put down the ledger in his hand.

"That being the case, it's better to find a chance to take a look at this simple Mrs. Hu." Li Shengxian proposed.

"Does Mrs. Ning have any ideas?" Rongji raised his eyebrows.

"I have my own way." For internal guards, the quiet watchman is the most basic.

"Time is pressing, we can only stay here for one more day, and within one day, we are afraid of ugly signs." Rongji frowned.

Li Shengxi didn't care, "It's man-made, besides, if there is really a clue, it will be the same if you ask Rujin to look at it."

"There's a lady of Lao."

"No work." Li Shengxian sneered, thought of something again, and reminded: "I remind Rong Xun again, the account room should be checked, and the treasury should also be checked. In terms of counting, I'm not as good as any of you, time is pressing, there are not many people, so Rong Xun still has to speed up the action."

"Thank you for the reminder." Rongji nodded

。

Li Shengxian didn't say a word, she groped up and down the study, and after confirming that there were no special mechanisms and secret grids, Li Shengxing disappeared into the study.

Looking at Li Shengxing, who had come and gone without a trace, Rong Zhi's eyebrows deepened, but soon, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued to flip through the account books.

Hu Wenruo's wife is in her forties this year, perhaps because of the new widow, she is dressed very plainly. The furnishings in her bedroom are also extraordinarily simple. Compared with this huge mansion, it seems extraordinarily out of place.

Hu Wenruo has never been a clean official, on the contrary, he is greedy and smart enough. Meng Kun didn't mention it that day, but Liujin told her in detail that over the years, Hu Wenruo had been greedy for a lot of money. He is dead, and all the silver and gold should go to his wife, how can he be so pure?

Even if it's because of the new widow, at most it's just a change of some plain furnishings, how can it be so simple?

Li Shengxun couldn't figure it out, she took advantage of the night to turn Mrs. Hu's room up and down, this room gave her an indescribable feeling, but she didn't turn anything out for a while.

In fact, there is another place she did not turn - Mrs. Hu's bed. However, this will probably have to wait for Madame Hu to wake up.

Mrs. Hu barely spoke after she got up, let her servants help wash up, and after finishing the meal, she met her two sons, and after telling her a few words such as "work hard to add food", she sent her two sons away.

In fact, after seeing Mrs. Hu's two sons, Li Shengxun noticed Mrs. Hu's strangeness.

She was like a newly widowed woman, unsmiling, mentally tired, unable to lift any spirits, and reluctant to speak on weekdays.

At first glance, there is nothing unusual, and she played a really good role. But when you compare it with her two young sons, you can see the difference.

She wasn't that sad.

Or rather, her grief is not genuine. Such hypocritical sadness, Li Shengxi has seen a lot, and he has played a lot - at the funerals of many royal relatives. Everyone is so hypocritical, and the most sincere people are the people closest to the deceased. Whether it is really sad or sad can be easily seen by comparison.

This is strange. Although Hu Wenruo is greedy, he respects his wife very much, has been married for many years, rarely has a bad relationship, and has never taken a concubine.

Although he didn't do this, Mrs. Hu would have a deep affection for him, but most people in the world are like this, and being different from the world will inevitably make people think a little more.

Mrs. Hu, why is there no mourning?

The person who provided disaster relief was changed to Meng Songyan.
