Chapter 113 Searching for Evidence
Liu Jinhua heard unusual noises coming from the yard and, remembering her son's instructions, she could no longer keep an eye on her daughter-in-law and hurriedly ran out of the kitchen.

When she saw the yard full of dark red blood, the horrifying scene and the strong, pungent stench made her feel scared, and she couldn't help but feel nauseous and vomit repeatedly.

After finally calming down and regaining my senses, the anger in my heart surged up, and I put my hands on my hips, looked up, and started cursing.

"what!"

"Shut up, what are you yelling about, you useless thing!"

Seeing her daughter-in-law's half-crying, swaying body, Liu Jinhua's anger flared even more. "If you ever show that half-dead, vixen-like face again, I'll beat you to death!"

Her youngest son used to be such a good and obedient person, but ever since he met this vixen and spendthrift woman, he's changed in every way!

Although she receives a small amount of retirement money each month, it's nothing compared to the fraction of what she used to have when she managed all his money.

Just thinking about the dowry, the three turns and one ring, and the thirty-six legs... makes her feel breathless and heartbroken.

She thinks she's worthy?!

She used to listen to her in everything and always put her first. Her most successful and proudest son not only repeatedly argued with her for her sake, but even took away her management rights by claiming that he should enjoy his retirement and not have to worry about anything.

This undoubtedly pierced her heart even more; no wonder she couldn't stand such a daughter-in-law!
"Go out and see if our little one is back yet. He's just standing there like a corpse! All he can do is act coquettish and flirtatious. What good is he? He's a good-for-nothing with no sense of propriety!"

Her mother-in-law's furious outburst instantly turned Huang Mingzhu's eyes bloodshot, and she quickly lowered her head to hide her intense hatred.

She quickly calculated in her mind when Yan Bin usually came home, but instead of listening to her and going out immediately, she covered her face and sobbed until she was almost done before running out the door.

Having witnessed a good show, Su Ning couldn't help but pick at his ear; the person's insults were simply too vulgar.

From the moment the daughter-in-law came out until she started ranting, her insults were not only increasingly vulgar, but she also managed to avoid repeating a single word.

As the young wife ran out the door, the old woman, who clearly hadn't finished cursing, followed closely behind and stood brazenly in front of the door, spewing spittle everywhere.

Seizing the opportunity, Su Ning jumped off the wall without hesitation, quickly avoiding the pig's blood he had splashed, and walked along the base of the wall to the eaves.

Then, without any hesitation, he stomped hard on the blood, leaving several footprints from the courtyard to the base of the wall, and then followed the footprints back.

Seeing that the footprints left from stepping on them were obviously larger than her original size, she put on a new pair of Warrior shoes with peace of mind, threw the blood-stained pair back into her storage space, and tiptoed into the house.

After looking around the main room and not finding anything special, I pushed open the door and went into the room on the left that was right next to it.

There was a smell in the room that smelled like ash or something moldy, which made her frown.

It seems that not every elderly person is as tidy and clean as Grandma Qu. This old woman looks fierce and unkempt.

Suppressing my nausea, I searched the room thoroughly, inside and out, and was amazed by what I found.

The wardrobe standing in the corner is filled with worn clothes instead of clean ones, while all the clean, unworn clothes are piled up at the foot of the bed. What kind of problem is this?!

And those moldy and mildewy cookies and pastries in the cabinet, could you really eat them if you were hungry in the middle of the night?
While searching, Su Ning couldn't help but complain, feeling utterly disgusted by the slovenly old woman.

Especially seeing those stacks of banknotes hidden in the pockets he'd sewn himself inside his worn underwear…

He took a deep breath and held it, then took out a snakeskin bag from his spatial storage and stuffed all the underwear he had pulled out from the corners into it. He glanced at his hands and silently consoled himself: "I'm wearing gloves. I can take them off, wash and disinfect them, and they're still usable. Don't even think about chopping them off!"

If spring water could regenerate severed limbs, there would be no need to be so conflicted.

After emerging from the old woman's room, her face flushed red, she finally exhaled and hurried to another room.

Yan Bin is nearly thirty years old. The two have been married for less than three years. The biggest advantage of having a wife is that he no longer has to let his mother clean the house.

Look how neat and tidy the room is, and it even smells of perfume. How come it's a hundred times better than that one?
I quickly crouched down, and finally I could breathe freely and search around!
They first carefully searched through the cabinets and boxes, but found nothing except some loose coins and notes.

This is really not right.

According to Tang Tian's recollection, her uncle was reported four years later, and the key to his success was this booklet.

It doesn't make sense that we haven't started recording it yet, and we'll only start in a few years, right?

Moreover, the money is not right. They manage so many black markets in counties and cities. Even if the whole family spends all their money, they would still have a lot left over.

She doesn't approve of people like Yan Bin who deposit all their money and valuables in the bank.

Where is it that we can't find it?
He began scanning from the doorway, scrutinizing every nook and cranny, not even missing a bump on the floor. His gaze then settled on the bed, before shifting to the area beneath it.

This bed looks a bit like the old-fashioned kind, with a footstool at the front. Logically, the height of this footstool should be…

With a sudden inspiration, Su Ning quickly stepped forward and tried to move the foot pedal. Because he wanted to use force, his fingers unconsciously reached for the small gap under the foot pedal.

"Click~"

Suddenly, she heard a faint noise, and with a start, she yanked back the sheets and the quilt underneath.

The bed board, which was perfectly fine before, suddenly split open, creating a neat, square inner partition.

Inside, there were not only several boxes, but also a flat box that looked like it was used to store books.

He bent down and scooped up the flat box, which was secured with a tight silver lock.

With a quick glance, he pulled a small hammer from the tool room, knocked off the lock, and opened it. Sure enough, there were two booklets inside, one large and one small.

He flipped through a few pages. The larger book recorded his wealth from the black market over the years, while the smaller one recorded his transactions with the people behind him.

The details, including the time, location, and amount, were all recorded.

He put the items back into the box, along with the other boxes in the inner compartment, and stored them all in his space.

As soon as I reached the entrance of the main room, I heard an increasingly heated argument coming from the front door.

Thinking of Yan Bin who hadn't returned home yet, Su Ning quickly walked to the kitchen, which was right next to the wall.

Instead of rushing to climb over the wall as planned, he slipped into the space.

She could jump down from the nearly two-meter-high wall, but she knew how much noise she would make climbing back up on her own.

It's likely that after finally managing to climb over the wall, someone will be caught red-handed.

Anyway, she has a place to rest and a whole night to spare. She can just climb out quietly later by using a ladder!
Having achieved her goal, she wasn't in a hurry. She leisurely returned to her Peach Blossom Courtyard, first throwing off her gloves to thoroughly wash and disinfect her hands, and then preparing to eat and fill her stomach.

On the other side, he had just returned home and hadn't even reached the door when he heard his mother yelling and cursing at the top of her lungs.

Yan Bin's dark face and chilling aura, coupled with the finger-length scar that ran from his brow bone to his eye, were absolutely terrifying enough to make anyone not dare to look at him a second time.

The crowd that had been huddled together at the corner of the wall to watch the spectacle quickly suppressed their unusual excitement, put on smiling faces, and made way for each other.

"Mother, what's wrong now?"

"What is it now? Do you think I want to do anything? Why don't you look at your good wife!"

Yan Bin glanced at his wife, who was crying so hard she could barely breathe, and his expression grew even colder.

He began to consider Biaozi's suggestion.

Since the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can't get along, it's better to separate. As the saying goes, distance makes things better, and maybe it will actually ease the tension.

Anyway, given his mother's temper, whether he goes to his eldest brother's or second brother's house, his two sisters-in-law will never give him a hard time.

At worst, he can just contribute a little more to his monthly pension.

Completely unaware that her beloved youngest son had already decided to send her to his other two sons' homes, Liu Jinhua was still there listing her daughter-in-law's faults to her sons.

When Yan Bin finally heard the source of the accusation, a fierce glint appeared in his eyes, startling the person who had been incessantly cursing.

"Mother, what did you just say?"

"I was saying the whole yard..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yan Bin swiftly passed her and ran into the yard. Liu Jinhua, realizing what was happening, immediately turned pale.

"It happened!"

In the heat of the moment, he forgot about the blood that had fallen from the sky in the courtyard!
