Chapter 142 Clues (Part 2)



Fang hesitated for a moment and whispered, "I...seemed to have heard of He Li."

So Su Yu Niang had an argument with her natal family about the divorce. It is not difficult to guess the attitude of the old Su family, they must not agree.

In the eyes of the old Su family, reputation comes first and everything else has to take a back seat.

Then without coming to any conclusion, Su Yu Niang packed up and left?

There was no more information to be obtained from Su Sanlang, so we could only confirm that he was not lying.

There is another question, why did the old Su family call Su Yu Niang back in the first place, and why did they sneak around from behind?

"Zheng Lanxiu was here. Could it be that someone from the old Su family heard something from Zheng Lanxiu and thought Su Yu Niang was embarrassing, so they secretly called Su Yu Niang back to scold her?"

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and walked back to Xiao Su's house.

In the village, villagers were holding torches and looking for people everywhere.

Zhou said sarcastically, "You said you cared about Yu Niang, but you didn't go to look for her. You were just wandering around the village. If someone didn't know, they would think you were just wandering around the street!"

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at Zhou indifferently.

The cold look made Zhou's heart skip a beat for unknown reason, and she dared not complain anymore.

A villager said, "You guys are in the village, come with me to the mountain to have a look!"

The villagers rushed forward.

It’s not that Su Xiaoxiao didn’t want to look for her, but she felt that Su Yu Niang would neither hide in any household in the village nor run to the mountains for no reason.

Su Yu Niang’s disappearance is a mystery.

I always feel like something is wrong.

The three little ones were looking out the door eagerly. When they saw her coming back, they asked in a baby voice, "Mom, where's Auntie?"

Su Xiaoxiao said softly: "Auntie is out, mother will bring her back later."

Most of the time she calls herself "I", and only calls herself "mother" when she is comforting the three little ones. This coincides with Wei Ting's behavior.

Two and a half year old children don’t quite understand what blood relationships are. They only know that their mother, father, grandfather, uncle, Aunt Su and her baby live in their home.

Living at home means being family.

Old Man Su, Su Ergou, Liu Ping, and Xiao Wu are back.

Father Su snorted, "A Su Can and a Su Erlang dare to challenge me. I will beat them to death!"

The truth is that the beating didn't even start and Su Can and his son were scared away.

Father Su added, "Your Aunt Qian said that she left the child at her house and told us not to worry, because no one would snatch the child away."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "Okay."

"What's wrong with Yu Niang?" Old Man Su wondered.

Obviously, through spending time together during this period of time, Old Man Su has also figured out Su Yu Niang's personality and she is definitely not the kind of person who would disappear for no reason.

"Dad, you and Ergou go to Zheng Lanxiu's house and ask her if she said anything to the old Su family during the day."

"OK!"

Old Man Su took Su Ergou there.

Su Xiaoxiao also planned to go out and look for it.

As soon as I raised my foot, I heard a donkey braying from the backyard.

The old people in the village said that donkeys like to bray, but they have never heard their donkey bray since they bought it. They once thought they bought a mute donkey.

"Da Ya."

It was Wei Ting's voice.

Su Xiaoxiao turned back.

In the backyard, Wei Ting was holding a bundle with some messy grass and wood chips on it.

"Where did it come from?" she asked.

Wei Ting glanced at the donkey that was slowly eating grass and said, "What it dug out is hidden in the pigsty."

This donkey loves cleanliness and needs to be cleaned every day. In addition, it has a larger appetite than ordinary donkeys and will get irritable and destroy things if it is not full. Therefore, there is always a thick layer of hay in the donkey's den.

The bundle was taken out of the hay by the donkey.

This bundle looks unfamiliar and doesn't seem to belong to my home.

Su Xiaoxiao stretched out her hand to take the package and open it.

"I'll do it." Wei Ting said.

He opened it cautiously and found only a pile of clothes and personal belongings inside.

Su Xiaoxiao gave him a deep look and said, "You looked like you were worried that there might be a hidden weapon in here? You were afraid that the hidden weapon might hurt me?"

Wei Ting said indifferently: "You talk too much."

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me." Su Xiaoxiao took the bundle and flipped through it carefully. "It contains Yu Niang's underwear, and... fifty taels of silver, and fifty taels of silver notes."

The total is one hundred taels.

This is a huge sum of money in the countryside. You know, many families earn less than five taels a year.

If it was Su Yu Niang's, it wouldn't be surprising.

That woman is a slightly wealthy woman.

etc!

Weird!

"Sanlang said that after Yuniang had a quarrel with her family, she left in a hurry with a bundle in her arms, and he didn't even try to stop her. I remember Yuniang told me that she had hidden her money at Old Su's house, and that she would find a chance to get the money back after she was released from confinement."

Wei Ting said: "Do you think this is the silver she brought back? Hidden in the pigsty?"

"You also feel something is wrong, right? First of all, it is impossible for Yu Niang to hide things in... not a pigsty! It's a donkey's den!" Su Xiaoxiao corrected seriously.

Wei Ting shook his head helplessly: "Okay, it's a donkey's nest."

Su Xiaoxiao continued, "Secondly, if Yu Niang really went home to get her own private money, then... it's definitely more than just this."

She once boasted to Su Yu Niang that she had earned five hundred taels in the capital city. Su Yu Niang sneered at the time and said, "Five hundred taels make you so happy. What a loser!"

She asked Su Yu Niang in return: "At least, do you have one?"

Su Yu Niang snorted, "Much more than you!"

Of course, one could also think that Su Yu Niang was bragging, but based on Su Xiaoxiao's observation and understanding of Su Yu Niang, this little rich woman's private money is definitely more than a hundred taels!

Since she had the opportunity to return to the Su family, how could she have only brought back one hundred taels?

Could it be that she still hopes to go back a second time?

In a flash, Su Xiaoxiao suddenly understood.

"The person Sanlang saw was not Su Yu Niang! It was someone wearing Su Yu Niang's clothes, coming out of the back door of the old Su's house, and deliberately letting Sanlang see her! Sanlang probably didn't see her face, and when Sanlang called her, she didn't dare to answer because her voice didn't sound like hers!"

This can be verified by asking Su Sanlang.

But Su Xiaoxiao felt that this was unnecessary.

Because she probably already guessed what was going on.

The disappearance of Su Yu Niang seemed to be targeted at Su Yu Niang, but in fact it was aimed at the Su family.

Once the "stolen goods" are turned out, they will say that Su Yu Niang was killed by the Xiao Su family because the Xiao Su family was greedy for money and killed her for money.

Although no one in Xiao Su's family had the opportunity to commit the crime, some methods of killing do not require face-to-face contact.

Since the other party was able to produce stolen goods, he must have also thought of a method to commit the crime.

Su Xiaoxiao frowned: "Not good! Yu Niang is in danger!"

There will be another one later
