The dilapidated walls and ruins in Xiaoxizhuang's courtyard should be due to the sun and rain but no one to clean and repair them.But the inside of the room was clean, even though there was dust covering the beds, sofas, cabinets and stools, one could tell at a glance that the furniture was excellent.

Sheng Yanling peeped in from the window and said as she walked, "Fifth Sister, you said... 100 million taels of silver are stored in this other courtyard. The mother and daughter have lived together for five years. Why didn't you find it?"

Miss Wu thinks it is possible: "It is said that it was found from the secret passage in the warehouse. Even if someone lives in the yard, there should be no way to find the locked warehouse and the secret passage in the warehouse, right? They live here in a rented house." Yes, it’s not my own house, where can I find it in the warehouse of the master’s house.”

It makes sense.At that time, some people said that Sui Boying deliberately hired irrelevant people to rent this house, just to cover up his crimes.

But now that the Sui family case is being talked about again, the fifth girl actually has something to say, saying: "The incident back then was indeed strange. It only took seven days from the time of the incident to the beheading of Sui Boying. Within these seven days, Your Majesty Why does Boss He Buyuchuan feel that Sui Boying is really corrupt?"

There must be something they don't know about.But the superiors wiped away the traces, and no one later redressed them for their grievances, which led to the ruins of the family that was so crowded back then.

Sheng Yanling stood on the porch, and opened two windows one after another, all of which were normal scenes.It was clean and there was no trace of people living there.

The two looked at a few more rooms, and then went to the door under the urging of Xu's mother.Xu's mother poked her head into the room, her expression was extremely nervous, seeing the two little ancestors walking slowly, she complained: "Only my old lady is in a hurry!"

If this is in Lingnan, when the robbers come, I really want to tear off my skirt and run bare legs!Now in her eyes, entering this Suijia yard is like meeting a robber, and it is only serious to hide out as soon as possible.

In the end, they finally came out, and the two of them had to follow this way to the houses of those farmers to take a closer look.Xu's mother screamed in her heart, what should I do if I'm cold in this winter?Besides, what's so good about farmers.

Sheng Yanling smiled and said, "I just went to see the farmer. I haven't seen such a farmer's house before."

Miss Wu also thought that she wanted to go alone, so she was willing to go with her.Yan Ling is a girl who is curious about everything, such a trivial matter, naturally satisfies her.

Mother Xu: "..."

She murmured to Guan Gui in a low voice, "The girl has only been in the capital for a few days and things have changed—our family is a farmer, right?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Gui straightened his back proudly, "Aniang, what are you talking about, we are from an official family."

Xu's mother glared at her, but did not refute.She went to the Sheng family early, when the girl's father had not yet made a fortune, it was indeed a peasant family, but later changed its appearance, married a lady from the Hou's mansion, and was able to live in the Duke's mansion.

Thinking of this, Mother Xu also straightened her back, and followed to meet the farmer's family.

If she wanted to see it, she just looked carefully.Sheng Yanling and Miss Wu looked around along the road, and she just looked for someone so that she could pull them out and compare them.

They are all poor people, but she turned over.

Sheng Yanling was preoccupied with thinking about how to ask the people in Zhuangzi later, but she didn't notice her appearance. The fifth girl saw her and chuckled, thinking that Mama Xu was really interesting.

After walking for about half an hour, I arrived at a family's house at the end of the mountain.Sheng Yanling also said that her legs were tired, so she wanted to rest here.

Mother Xu and others hurriedly went to tell the people in the room, and then invited the two of them in.The old lady from the farmer lived here and was used to seeing nobles, so she was not restrained when she came forward to greet her, she smiled and said: "Girls, sit and rest, if you need it, just tell us."

Sheng Yan bell let out a hey, then looked at the house, and said: "The house is well maintained, the old lady is a diligent person."

The old lady smiled and said: "Yes, the world is good now, and there is such a good place at home, how can it be so dirty and messy?"

Miss Wu had never been here before, and she asked curiously after hearing the words: "I hear your accent, doesn't it look like someone from here?"

The old lady nodded, "Yes, we just moved here a few years ago."

Sheng Yanling tightened his grip, and said as calmly as possible: "This house doesn't look like it was built in recent years. Did you buy a house?"

The old lady: "Yes, the people who lived here said they wanted to go south to do business, so they sold the house to us."

Feast bell: "What year was it sold?"

The old lady looked at her curiously, "It's 23 years of Jingtai."

The 23rd year of Jingtai... This is really a sensitive year.

Sheng Yanling and Fifth Miss looked at each other, and they both saw the doubt in each other's eyes.Miss Wu was just asking out of curiosity when she heard the old lady's accent was wrong, who knew she could ask this.

They had ghosts in their hearts, after all, they had just talked about Suijia's case in Xiaoxi Zhuangli, so they couldn't help but inquired more carefully after hearing the words, and said, "Then have you ever seen the person who sold your house?"

Hearing this, the old lady also looked at them curiously, and then said: "This sentence...some noble people came to ask it before."

Sheng Yanling and Miss Wu looked at each other again, their hearts tightened, and they said in unison: "Who?"

The old lady: "It's not just one person. Someone asked about it when I bought it four years ago, and someone asked about it three years ago. This year... just a few days ago, a nobleman also came to ask about it."

Sheng Yanling thought for a while, "The person who came here a while ago looks a bit like this girl?"

The old lady glanced at Miss Wu and nodded in surprise, "Yes, it's really similar."

The fifth girl knew it should be the third brother.

It is normal for the third brother to investigate this case, but other people...

But it's not surprising.There are always a few people who want to reverse the case for Suijia.

I hadn't investigated this case before, and I didn't expect there to be twists and turns in it. Now the person I'm resting at will changed people four years ago, so I feel that this case has a feeling of trying to cover up.

The old lady smiled and said: "Actually, when people came to the door one after another, I knew what kind of case I should be involved in. I also inquired about it. Only then did I know that it was related to such a big case."

She has said these words to many people, so when the nobleman asked, she said all of them, "We talked to them a few times when we bought the yard, and they said that the people who lived in Xiaoxizhuang were from Jiangnan. Now that the mother is dead, there is only one daughter left, and they got some money from that daughter, so they want to send her back to the south of the Yangtze River, and because the north is difficult, they thought it would be better to go to the south together to do business.”

This also makes sense.

When he returned to the other courtyard of Ningguo Duke's Mansion, Yan Yanling said: "It seems strange, but it's normal when you look closely."

The fifth girl also felt very strange.Curiosity was aroused, and the next day he pulled the banquet bell to ask other farmers' homes, but it turned out that these people had either never seen the mother and daughter of that family, or had moved away.

In fact, there were not many families who moved away, but four or five households, which was normal, because they all lived in rented houses.

Miss Wu frowned and said, "Okay, I found one thing that seemed surprising, but after careful questioning, it turned out to be reasonable."

Sheng Yanling: "Well, it's no wonder the case was closed so quickly back then."

but……

In this way, it seemed that no one had ever seen the mother and daughter.

This is... and strange.

Mother Xu saw that they were entangled in this and ran with them for two days, so she became interested and said: "The people in the deep house compound don't go out, who will see them? People outside will definitely not be able to see them, but food and clothing always Do you want it?"

She is very experienced, "If you can see them anytime, it must be someone who will bring them food."

Like her, she can still sleep on the girl's bed.

She said: "Even if there are no servants to serve, there should be someone who delivers food and rice? Even if there is no one, they should go buy it?"

Living alone, where can there be no traces.

Her mother Xu didn't believe this evil, and said: "You Yangchun Baixue, how can you understand this, you have to come like an old slave."

However, she also had her own thoughts, and said to Sheng Yanling: "Why do you need to check it yourself? Just write a letter and ask the third young master? If he doesn't know, there will be Boss Bu Yuchuan. Now they are re-investigating, It is convenient to read the file."

Fifth Miss explained, "Your Majesty has not issued an order yet, and the case file is still in the Ministry of Punishment."

Mother Xu: "Master Buyu, do you still need to read the file?"

The fifth girl thought for a while and said, "You are absolutely right."

But they didn't want to investigate the case before.Miss Wu felt itchy in her heart, and said, "Yan Ling, why don't we really write a letter to ask Third Brother?"

She was curious as to what was going on.

Sheng Yanling lowered her head, "Then you write—"

He wouldn't tell me anyway.

She pursed her lips, "But I also have a way to find out—as long as someone who has seen them describes them to me, I can draw them."

Miss Wu went over and hugged her and shouted, "Yanling, you are amazing!"

"Maybe you can help third brother."

Ah, the fiancée is handling the case hand in hand, thinking about it, her heart is starting to feel sweet again.
