Traveling through the 1970s: The young wife loves to make trouble

Chapter 200 Discovering the Secret Room
The crowd of onlookers dispersed, and the cart that Xiaoshun had placed by the door was revealed. He dragged the cart into the yard.

"You watch the bicycle, I'll go help Xiaoshun." Pushing the bicycle to Wei Jingyuan, without waiting for Wei Jingyuan to say anything, Tao Qiuyi quickly walked towards the yard.

The main reason is that I am afraid of being bullied for being filial to a half-grown child.

Walking into the yard, Tao Qiuyi saw a mess. Xiaoshun's cart was parked at the entrance to the main hall. As far as the eye could see, nothing was intact; even the cabbages planted in the small vegetable patch by the wall had been trampled.

"A bunch of beasts who eat human food but do nothing for human affairs." Tao Qiuyi cursed and walked into the house.

Xiaoshun was sorting the damaged items in the main room when he saw Tao Qiuyi walk in. He stopped and asked in surprise, "Sister Tao, why did you come in?"

He thought Sister Tao and Brother-in-law Tao had left.

"I was worried about you, so I came in to check on you." Tao Qiuyi walked over and picked up the table with a broken leg. The table was made of solid wood and was a bit heavy.

Xiaoshun definitely can’t lift it.

After moving the broken-legged table onto the panel truck outside, Tao Qiuyi walked in and wanted to continue moving the chairs. Xiaoshun stopped her, "Sister Tao, I can handle these. You don't have to help me."

"Don't let helping me delay your relationship with Brother-in-law Tao."

"We're fine." Tao Qiuyi glanced around. "With so many things, how long will it take you to get them by yourself? I can help you, so it will be faster."

"Take your time, you'll always be able to finish it." Seeing that she didn't seem to be being polite, Xiaoshun didn't stop her. He said thank you for your hard work, Sister Tao, and continued to clean up.

This child was so sensible that it made people feel distressed. Tao Qiuyi picked up a book that was torn in two from the ground. It was a book about mechanics, but unfortunately, it was violently torn in two.

It was torn horizontally, leaving no page untouched.

"Those people really know how to ruin good things." Tao Qiuyi's eyes flickered with anger as she looked at the book in her hand. Just wait, she'll definitely deal with those people when she's free.

Xiaoshun looked over and saw Tao Qiuyi sighing with a book in her hand. He said, "Sister Tao likes that book, so take it back."

After taking it back, Tao Qiuyi raised an eyebrow and teased Xiaoshun, "Does this count as favoritism?"

"There are so many books in the scrap yard, a torn one is not a big deal." Xiaoshun said seriously, and then added, "What matters most is that Sister Tao likes it."

"I like to hear that." Tao Qiuyi looked at Xiaoshun with a smile and asked, "If I like other things in this room, will you let me take them away too?"

"Okay." Xiaoshun nodded, looked around the room, and said with some regret: "These things are all damaged. If we drag them to the scrap yard, they will only be used as firewood."

Tao Qiuyi nodded in agreement. If solid wood furniture was broken, it could be repaired by someone who knew how to fix it. If not, it would just be burned as firewood.

Glancing towards the door, Xiaoshun suddenly leaned over to Tao Qiuyi and whispered, "Sister Tao, that man just told me when he left. If you find a tunnel or something in the house, don't go in. Run and inform him immediately."

Tunnel? It turned out that the main goal of those people was to find the tunnel in this house. Thinking of the look in those people's eyes when they left, Tao Qiuyi's eyes flashed with a mocking smile.

No wonder everyone's eyes were gloomy when they left. It turned out that they didn't find what they were looking for.

If you can't find it, it means that the things inside don't belong to you.

Blinking his eyes, Tao Qiuyi walked around the room and stopped. Smiling, he asked Xiaoshun, "Xiaoshun, does this room look like there's a tunnel?"

"Not like that." Xiao Shun shook his head. He didn't take the man's words seriously at all.

"I don't think so either," Tao Qiuyi agreed. "Okay, you clean up in this room, I'll go take a look in the next room." After saying that, Tao Qiuyi jokingly said, "If I see something I like, I'll take it away."

"Okay." Xiaoshun nodded seriously.

Apart from anything else, Tao Qiuyi was very happy with the filial attitude. "It's great to be filial. Sister Tao will bring you some meat later."

The door to the next room was not closed, and when Tao Qiuyi walked in, she saw a mess. This was a small bedroom with a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk.

There wasn't much room to move around, and the quilt and clothes on the bed were scattered all over the place. The wardrobe door was open, and the inside was also a mess, with shoe prints clearly imprinted on the clothes.

After walking around the room, Tao Qiuyi was certain that the tunnel entrance was inside this room. Before her time travel, she had been everywhere and seen every mechanism.

The tunnel in this house can only be considered kindergarten level.

Bending down, he cleared out all the clothes from the closet and threw them on the bed. Tao Qiuyi squatted down and groped the bottom of the closet with his hands, trying not to make any noise.

Soon she noticed something fishy about the innermost floorboard, and just as she was about to investigate, she heard footsteps outside, then voices, and then the sound of two footsteps, one large and one small, approaching.

Tao Qiuyi quickly got up, took down a painting hanging on the wall, and spread it out on the bed.

"Sister Tao, the cart is full. Brother-in-law Tao said he would help me drag the things on the cart back to the scrap station first." Xiaoshun appeared at the door of the house, with Wei Jingyuan standing beside him.

Both of them looked at Tao Qiuyi, waiting for her to speak.

"No." Tao Qiuyi flatly refused and slowly raised his head, looking at the two people, one big and one small, standing at the door.

Wei Jingyuan said, "Xiaoshun told me that the scrap yard is about ten minutes away. I'll drag the things on the cart back to the scrap yard and back in just twenty minutes. It's quick."

I understand he wants to help, but his recently recovered legs really can't bear the strain anymore. Tao Qiuyi said, "Wei Jingyuan, I know you want to help, but you can't use a flatbed truck. Go back to the door and sit down."

"Xiaoshun, go back and inform your grandfather and ask him to cook for two more people. You don't have to come again after you go back. We will be there soon."

"Today, while I'm here, neither of you two is allowed to pull the cart."

Wei Jingyuan and Xiaoshun looked at each other, turned around in tacit understanding and walked out the door together.

Listening to Xiaoshun's footsteps fade away, Wei Jingyuan sat at the doorway. Tao Qiuyi neatly put away the painting and tossed it into the ring. After tinkering with it for a while, the bottom plate gradually opened up, revealing several steps.

Found it, Tao Qiuyi cheered in his heart.

At the same time, I admire the person who dug the tunnel. The floorboard is very thick and heavy. If it weren't for someone as strong as her, even if they found something fishy at the bottom of the wardrobe, one or two people wouldn't be able to open it.

After removing the bottom plate, Tao Qiuyi did not rush down. He listened carefully again and found no movement outside or below.

She then walked down the stairs.

The first thing that caught my eye was a wall of bookshelves filled with books. In front of it was a rosewood chair and a rosewood table with nothing on it.

In the middle was a set of rosewood sofas, chairs, and tables, and against the other wall were more than a dozen boxes stacked.

What tunnel? This is clearly a secret room.
