Chapter 81: Lacquered Mahogany Chest

Afraid of collusion between the nurses, she didn't use Qin Jian's people, nor did she let the unmarried maids get their hands dirty, but called the two mothers-in-law around her: Aunt He and Aunt An, and asked them to order a few married middle-aged women to go in and search.

Aunt He called Aunt Gui and the others.

Aunt An called Granny Weng and a few others and went in together.

After searching for it, I found a few indescribable albums, but I didn't see the clothes that were missing.

Mrs. Lu couldn't wait to blindfold her two granddaughters, and hurriedly asked them to put away the album and ask whose it was.

Aunt Ann said that the album was found in the second room on the east side and hidden in the straw under the mat.

Mrs. Lu asked who lived there?

Then everyone turned to look at the same person.

Liang Hang.

Liang Hang was a little confused.

He obviously put this under Yu Yan's mat, why did he run to him?

Could it be that he made a mistake in his panic?

He was so nervous at the time.

Old Madam Lu: "Who is it?" Come out! ”

Liang Hang's face turned red, he knelt down and said, "Old lady, it was given by the villain's father, saying that I will get married in the spring next year, let me learn it." ”

Mrs. Lu said, "I know you. Aren't you the son of Liang Deshun on the other side of the second room? ”

Liang Hang: "Yes." ”

Mrs. Lu asked the second aunt, "Is what he said true?" ”

"It's the truth that you're going to get married!" The second aunt's face was full of dryness, and she opened her mouth to scold: "You unconscious bastard!" It's good to hide this kind of thing at home, and if you bring it to the house, you won't die? ”

Liang Hang kowtowed: "The villain doesn't dare anymore!" Don't dare anymore! ”

Old Madam Lu frowned: "Let him leave the West Second Courtyard!" Go and live outside. ”

This is from the light hair, Liang Hang was shocked into a cold sweat, and hurriedly thanked him and retreated.

Mrs. Lu asked Aunt He and Aunt An again: "Is there anything else suspicious?" ”

Aunt He said: "Everyone has one or two locked boxes in the house. ”

Mrs. Lu: "Let them all open." ”

Aunt He nodded and asked them to open the boxes one by one to check.

Aunt Gui was ordered to come.

It's in the house, so be sure to find it.

However, Yu Cheng's room was the same as the last time she came, it was clear at all, she searched every corner, and she didn't find the slightest clue.

Even the back window, the beams, and even the roof of the house she looked up with a ladder, but found nothing.

The only possibility left was the small lacquered mahogany box that was locked.

But she was also skeptical that the box was only a foot long and half a foot high, and could hold those stolen clothes?

She ordered Yu Cheng to open the box.

Yu Cheng was obviously reluctant, but the old lady gave the order, and he had to do so, took out the key from his bosom, and opened his mahogany box.

Aunt Gui stretched out her head to take a look, snatched it, and ran out with her arms.

"Old lady! Old lady! Aunt Gui shouted excitedly, "Look! ”

Old Madam Lu stretched out her head to look at it, and her expression was stunned.

Bai Xianyan glanced at Yu Yan, who came out and chased him out with a black face, and had a bad feeling in his heart, so he also went over to look.

There were no stolen clothes in the box.

However, there is something more serious than clothing!

In the mahogany chest, there were some silver, strings of copper coins, and loose coins, which did not add up to more than two hundred taels.

Yu Cheng is the leader of Bai Xianyan's four guards, with four taels of silver per month, and he has been working for more than ten years, and it is completely normal to be able to save this money.

In addition, there is a red gorse, which she gave him a few days ago, and it is normal.

What's not normal is ......

Old Madam Lu cautiously lifted a jade ornament from the inside, her eyes were full of shock, and she opened her mouth slightly to look at it.

When the others saw it, they all looked surprised.
