After releasing the Zhou family, Yue Su returned to the back house, took off his official uniform, and started working in his old profession.

Planes, chisels, and saws all seemed alive in his hands, cutting the wood neatly and brightly.

Ruan Aoyue and Mei'er looked on in confusion, wondering why the county magistrate still had such a hobby and knew how to do carpentry.

"What are you going to do?" Ruan Aoyue couldn't help but ask. Now that her parents are not around, she no longer has to call her husband so disgusting.

"You just came in. There isn't even a piece of new furniture in the house. It's really a bit unsightly. I'm going to make two pieces for you." Yue Su answered while lowering his head to work.

After receiving Yue Su's answer, Ruan Aoyue couldn't help but roll her eyes at Mei'er and whispered: "I blame you for talking too much last night."

Meier lowered her head in grievance and whispered: "I didn't know it would be like this. Who knew that the master would do it himself."

Yue Su's skills are quite impressive. He spent the whole morning making the shape of the dressing table, then brought some paint and painted it himself. The furniture he made is a complete combination of classical and modern beauty, and its appearance is extremely elegant, and it is also beautiful.

The two people who used it and watched it were dumbfounded and thought to themselves that even if they hired the best carpenter to do it, they might not be able to do it so well.

Ruan Aoyue, in particular, was completely stunned, "He...how could he make such a style of dressing table."

At that time, glass mirrors had just come from overseas. They were expensive and rare on the market. Yue Su had to use bronze mirrors instead.

Looking at his achievements, Yue Su couldn't help but recall the past again. He and Li Lan had seen this dressing table in the furniture store. It was an antique work. They originally planned to wait until they got married to buy it, but what happened was that...

Things. Today he was going to make furniture for Ruan Aoyue, and he couldn't help but think of this dressing table. Using his memory and his current carpentry skills, he finally made one that was 80% similar.

It was almost noon, Ruan Aoyue and Mei'er were going to cook. Yue Su knew the level of the two of them, so he quickly called Tie Qiu and asked Tie Qiu to go with him, which could be regarded as on-site guidance. Ruan Aoyue is a wife, and Tie Qiu knows the rules.

He couldn't let her go to the kitchen, so he dragged Meier there.

Yue Su continued to work. This time he planned to make a sofa bed and lay the floor every night. Who could bear it? Seeing Yue Su create modern furniture, Ruan Aoyue became more and more confused.

In a few days, Yue Su built more than a dozen sofas, two wardrobes, coffee tables, and tables. The wedding furniture was basically complete, and Mei'er, under Tie Qiu's guidance, was able to cook some decent meals.

That morning, Yue Su was reviewing official documents in the back office. As he was watching, a police officer reported that Tong Zhou and Yin Zhu were back. He quickly let the two of them in, thinking that they might have found some clues.

Sure enough, Yin Zhu brought new news.

"Sir, the villain has been ordered to work with the child arrester day and night in the past few days. He has been watching the area around Bi's house openly and secretly. He didn't see anyone coming in or out, and he didn't see Mrs. Zhou going out. Last night, the villain was anxious and used his night walking skills to jump on Bi's house.

Eavesdropping on the roof of the house. First, I heard Ms. Zhou yelling and scolding her mother-in-law for a while, complaining that she had brought an adult back home. Later, I heard the mute girl yelling in the room. Ms. Zhou heard it and began to curse again. She said something small.

Bitch, you rebelled again. The mice were noisy. What's the fuss? Then, there was a "clang" sound and the door was closed. At that time, the villain was a little confused. Although her daughter was mute, she would not scream when she saw the mouse.

The man had no choice but to lie down on the roof and listen carefully. It seemed that there was a man talking inside. He immediately took off the roof tiles and looked down, but there was nothing there. At the fourth watch, the villain heard the sound of men and women doing that again, and thought...

There must be an adulterer. So I went back to inform the child arrester, and we decided to come back and report to you first."

After listening to Yin Zhu's words, Yue Su guessed that there must be a secret passage in the Zhou family's house. But Huangming Town is a small town after all. Anyone who can take the trouble to dig a secret passage and carry out such a project must not look down on Zhou's family.

The widow immediately concluded that the house to which the secret passage led must be nearby. She asked, "Who are the neighbors of the Bi family? Are there any suspicious families?"

"Back to my lord, I have already investigated. The back wall of Zhou's room is shared with the family next door. Maybe there is something behind the wall. The owner of this house is a famous local family, his surname is Tang Mingyu, and his father is

He once served in Wanzai County, Jiangxi Province, and he is also a graduate, and he is currently studying at home." Tong Zhou answered immediately.

"You said this is a common wall. Is it behind the bed, or on both sides?"

This time it was Yin Zhu's turn to answer, "The little man then lifted up the tiles and took a closer look. Both sides were empty, except for the bed behind the wall, which was covered by a bed tent and couldn't see clearly. Except here, everything else was empty.

flaw."

"Okay, it seems that the mystery is here! You two have a holiday this afternoon, and you will go to Huangming Town with me tomorrow to find out what's going on."

***************************************************

Early the next morning, Yue Su told Ruan Aoyue that he was going to Huangming Town to investigate the case, and there was no need to prepare lunch for him. Ruan Aoyue's eyes immediately lit up when he heard about the case, and he insisted on going with him. Seeing her positive attitude, Yue Su

Su could only agree, but telling her that she didn’t need to bring the dog with her and walking around in such a conspicuous way was too revealing.

Yue Su wore casual clothes, and Ruan Aoyue disguised herself as a man, leaving Jin Chan to guard the county government office, and rushed to Huangming Town with Tong Zhou, Tie Qiu, and Yin Zhu.

When they came to town, Yue Su and others stayed at Ma Lu's house. Of course, Ma Lu was respectful and careful. In the evening, several people quietly came to the area around Bi's house to check and determined that Tang Zhai, who lived in the back, was the most suspicious. Anyway,

, digging tunnels is a big project, and the families next to Bi's house are small households. It is not realistic to carry out the project. Where to pile up so much soil, people will definitely be suspicious.

With the goal in mind, Yue Su returned to Ma's house, called Ma Lu, and said: "Tong Zhou, take my name card and go to Tang's house with Ma Lu tomorrow. Tell him that I have something to do in the place and invite Tang Juren to come."

Let’s talk about it. See how he responds and then report back.”

Ruan Aoyue saw that she had no investigation mission of her own, and immediately said: "Sir, my subordinates also want to go with Tong Baotou tomorrow."

Yue Sunai smiled and said: "Since you are willing to go, the best thing is to go with Tong Zhou tomorrow morning."

Early the next morning, Tong Zhou, Ma Lu, and Ruan Aoyue came to Tang's house together. Ma Lu knocked on the door and asked, "Is Mr. Tang at home?"

Hearing a sound inside, he opened the door and an old man came out and said, "Where are you from, and what do you want from my husband?"

Ma Lu smiled and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhu. Doesn't he even recognize me?"

Only then did the concierge Lao Zhu notice Ma Lu and hurriedly smiled and said, "It's really disrespectful for Uncle Ma to come here. My master hasn't gotten up yet."

After hearing this, Tong Zhou glanced at Ma Lu and walked in casually. After all, Ma Lu was the land keeper, and both Tong Zhou and Ruan Aoyue were wearing official attire today. Lao Zhu did not dare to stop him and let him go.

The three of them entered the house and stood at the door of the study. Tong Zhou deliberately said to Ma Lu, "Why are you so lazy in doing things? Since Mr. Tang is at home, where is he sleeping now? It's better to ask him to get up and talk."

Lao Zhu didn't know what he meant, so he quickly asked: "If this messenger has anything to say, please tell me, and I will go in and pass the message."

Ma Lu said: "He was sent by the county magistrate, and his name has been posted again. Because there is something going on in the local area, I invite your husband to come to the Yamen to discuss it. You can't neglect it."

Lao Zhu took the name card from Tong Zhou and led the way first, bypassing the study and passing through a small courtyard. Inside, he saw three main rooms facing south, and wing rooms on the left and right.

The main room at the top was connected to the Bi family. Tong Zhou understood clearly after careful consideration, and angrily shouted at Ruan Aoyue, indicating that this was the room.

Unexpectedly, Lao Zhu did not go to the upper room, but walked to the door of the lower room. At this time, Tong Zhou and Ruan Aoyue were a little stupid, "This person does not live in the upper room. Could it be that he made a wrong judgment?"

At this time, I suddenly saw a man walking out of the first room. He was about twenty-five or six years old. He was a very beautiful man with delicate features and extraordinary appearance. As soon as he came out, he asked Lao Zhu: "Who is here to invite you?"

gentlemen?"

Lao Zhu turned around and glanced at the three children and said: "This is strange. Although our husband is a civil servant, except for studying at home, he doesn't care about anything outside. I don't know what Mr. Yue in the county is doing.

Don't you think it's strange to ask someone to come and invite him? He said that there is official business in the place and we want to discuss it with him. I'm afraid that the gentleman may not be willing to go."

As soon as the young man heard that it was Mr. Yue, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked panicked and said, "Why don't you refuse directly and say that Sir doesn't care about worldly affairs, so why did you bring people inside?"

After hearing this, Tong Zhou and the others looked at the young man carefully. Because the room he came out of was behind the wall of Bi's house, they were very confused. Ruan Aoyue answered and asked: "May I ask your surname, sir, but where is it?"

Is it sent to the library here? Our great-grandfather has no other reason to do it, because he has a kind deed that no one can do. I heard that Mr. Tang is a gentleman with fair intentions, so he specially asked me to come with a piece of paper to invite him."

While he was talking, Lao Zhu had already walked into the next room and called out, "Sir, we have guests."

After a while, I heard someone inside ask: "Yesterday night, I led all the students to clear their backlog of classes, and I didn't go to bed until dawn. Don't you know?"

Then I heard Lao Zhu reply: "It's not because we don't know, because the magistrate of the county sent someone to invite you. We are on official business and will wait for your reply immediately."

"Why don't you refuse on my behalf? Now go get my name card and tell the person who comes to pay homage to the county magistrate. I am a scholar in a small village, teaching disciples behind closed doors and ignoring other people's business. Although it is a good deed.

, there are many gentry in the place, please invite someone else."

After hearing this, Lao Zhu had to come out and reply to Tong Zhou and others. The three of them had just heard vaguely, Ruan Aoyue said: "Mr. Tang refuses to go to the city. In my opinion, the only way is to go back and report to the grandpa, and ask the grandpa in person."

Come here. This matter cannot be delayed. We cannot delay things. Let us return to the city immediately."

After saying that, the three of them turned around and left, with Lao Zhu seeing him off respectfully. When they came to the street and saw people around, Ruan Aoyue whispered: "Have you seen that person?"

Tong Zhou said: "This is strange. Tang Yu lives in the lower house. How could a young man live in the upper house?" You must know that in those days, only the head of the family could live in the upper house.

Ruan Aoyue said: "I think this person is very suspicious. He just saw us and said he was sent by your lord, and the look on his face was not as good as before. Let's go back and report it immediately and see how your lord thinks about it."

***************************************************

After waiting for Ruan Aoyue's report, Yue Su finally showed a smile and said immediately: "Since we have locked the target, it shouldn't be too late. Tong Zhou, you rush back to the county office immediately and secretly call in twenty arrests. Don't let the news leak out.

Yin Zhu, Tie Qiu, starting from tonight, you two will sneak to the rooftops of Bi's house and Tang's house respectively, and check carefully. If you find that the young man has done anything, come immediately and report back."

Yue Su immediately deployed an action plan. Ruan Aoyue felt dissatisfied when he saw that he had nothing to do and said: "Sir, Yin Zhu and Tie Qiu have never seen the main room of the Tang family. If they go wrong, I'm afraid

If you miss the real thing, let me go."

After listening to Ao Yue's words, Yue Su felt funny in his heart. He thought to himself that his wife had the same temper as Li Lan. When she heard about any case, she couldn't sit still and had to go investigate. It's okay, so she did it.

That's what the wish is.

"Your concerns are reasonable. Anyway, you will go with Yin Zhu and Tie Qiu tonight. Remember not to alert the enemy."

"clear."

After receiving the order, everyone began to go about their own business. Yin Zhu and Tie Qiu each went back to their rooms to rest and wait for the night's action. Tong Zhou quickly returned to the county seat, mobilized twenty policemen, and arrived quietly.

Everything was ready. That night, Yin Zhu, Tie Qiu, and Ruan Aoyue all put on their night clothes and jumped on the roof of Bi's house. The claim that they could not find the main house of Tangzhai was pure nonsense. The back wall of Bi's house was not the same as the main house of Tangzhai.

The walls are for public use, only fools don't know that.

The three of them stayed together for three nights. The young man stayed in the room and did nothing except reading and sleeping. The same was true in Zhou's room, which was quiet and quiet without any male voice.

On the fourth night, the three climbed up to the roof again. There was no movement for three consecutive nights, and the momentum of the three was wiped out. This time, Ruan Aoyue called Yin Zhu and Tie Qiu to her side and whispered: "Tang

That boy at home seems even more suspicious now. If he doesn't move, there will be no movement from the Zhou family. I think that going there that day made him alert, and he will definitely keep to himself in the short term and not dare to interact with the Zhou family."

"Madam, what should we do? If they don't move, we can't arrest them hastily?" Tie Qiu said in a dilemma.
