Chapter 81 Lacquered mahogany box
Afraid of collusion between the nursing homes, she didn't use Qin Jian's people, nor did she let the unmarried maids get involved. Instead, she called the two women in charge around her: Aunt Fu and Aunt An, and asked them to order some married women. The middle-aged woman went in to search.

Aunt Fu called Aunt Gui and the others.

Aunt An called Granny Weng to wait for a few others, and went in together.

After a search, I found a few indescribable picture books, but I didn't see the lost clothes.

Mrs. Lu wished she could blindfold her grandchildren, and quickly asked them to put away the album and ask who it belonged to.

Aunt An said that the album was searched from 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 Ren's mat, why did it go to him?

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

He was so nervous at the time.

Mrs. Lu: "Who is it? Come out!"

Liang Hang blushed, stepped out and knelt down, and said, "Madam, it was given by the villain's father. He said that I will get married in the spring of next year. Let me learn it."

Mrs. Lu said, "I recognize you. Aren't you the son of Liang Deshun from the second room?"

Liang Hang: "Yes."

Mrs. Lu asked Second Aunt: "Is what he said true?"

"It's the truth that we're going to get married!" Second Aunt's face was full of anger, and she opened her mouth to scold: "You careless bastard! You can just keep this kind of thing at home. Bring it to the mansion. Are you going to die?"

Liang Hang kowtowed: "The villain will never dare again! Never dare again!"

Mrs. Lu frowned: "Let him leave the West Second Courtyard! Go live outside."

This was a lenient sentence, Liang Hang broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly Xie En retreated.

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

Aunt Fu said, "Everyone has one or two locked boxes in their house."

Mrs. Lu: "Let them all open."

Aunt Fu nodded and asked them to open the box one by one to check.

Aunt Gui came here under orders.

The things are in Renya, so you must find them.

However, Yu Ren's room was the same as the last time she came, and it was completely clear at a glance. They searched every corner, but couldn't find any clues.

Even the rear window, the beams and even the roof, she took a ladder to look up, but found nothing.

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

But she is also very suspicious, the box is only one foot long and half a foot high, can it hold those stolen clothes?

She ordered Yu Ren to open the box.

Yu Ren was obviously reluctant, but the old lady gave an order, so he had no choice but to follow suit, took out the key from his pocket, and opened his mahogany box.

Aunt Gui stretched out her head to look, snatched it up, and ran outside with her arms in her arms.

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

Mrs. Lu stretched her head to look, her expression froze.

Bai Xianyuan glanced at Yu Ren who was chasing after him with a dark face, feeling bad in his heart, so he also went to look.

There was no stolen clothing in that box.

But, there are more serious things than clothing!
In the mahogany box, there are some silver coins, strings of copper coins and loose money, the total of which does not exceed 200 taels.

Yu Ren was the leader of the four guards of Bai Xianyuan, with four taels of silver per month. After working for more than ten years, it is completely normal to be able to save this money.

In addition, there is a red treasure golden sparrow hairpin, which she gave him a few days ago, which is normal.

What's not normal is...

Mrs. Lu carefully took out an open long wooden box from inside, lifted a jade ornament from it and stopped, her eyes were full of shock, and she opened her mouth slightly to look closely.

When the others saw it, they all showed surprise on their faces.
