Kissed and Seduced By the Most Rough Man in the Village-Chapter 388: Smoke Rising from the Ancestors’ Tomb

The police officer in front knocked on the door, and a woman’s playful complaints came from inside.

"Coming, coming! Really, you don’t come for so many days, and then you rush in like this."

The woman opened the door, but when she saw the faces of the people at the door, her smile instantly faded.

Her instinctive reaction was to shut the door, clearly aware that something serious was wrong at her home.

But the police wouldn’t give her a chance to retreat, quickly pressing against the door before it could close.

With no other options, the woman could only force herself to say, "Who are you? I don’t know you."

"Police," the leading man revealed his identification.

Once he confirmed that she could see it clearly, he continued, "You know your relationship with Wei Dexuan; we need your cooperation with an investigation."

"I... I..." The woman opened her mouth to argue, but seeing so many people behind her, she eventually looked defeated and stepped aside to let them in.

Su Xiaoxiao and Jiang Yexun were at the back. When she noticed the small green vegetables growing in the yard, she thought it was similar to where they lived.

However, once they entered the house, she realized there was much more to it.

The clean, shiny floor was clearly newly laid and made of redwood; it was evident that everything else in the small house that used wood was just as luxurious.

Not only did the living room have a television, but there was also an imported refrigerator and a telephone.

These two items were quite expensive in that era, nearly the price of a small apartment.

Seeing everyone’s gaze fixated on those two items, the woman nervously rubbed her hands.

"Confess now. What is your relationship with Wei Dexuan, and how much money has he given you over the years?" the police questioned sternly.

The woman wasn’t foolish; she knew that honesty would lead to leniency and resistance would lead to severity, so she quickly laid everything out.

She revealed hidden gold bars in the rice vat, specially thickened walls, and a secret space dug underground.

According to her information, they not only found over twenty antiques but also discovered more than a hundred pieces of big yellow fish worth five hundred grams each.

Most importantly, they found a telegraph machine.

"So, you knew he was a spy and didn’t report it?" a comrade from the National Security Office pointed at the telegraph machine.

But the woman widened her eyes in terror and quickly shook her head, "Comrade, I didn’t! I truly didn’t know he had that kind of identity. I’m just an ordinary citizen; how would I recognize that machine?"

"Didn’t you find it strange when he fiddled with the machine?" the comrade’s gaze remained fixed on the woman as he questioned her.

But she shook her head earnestly, "No, I only knew there was this machine at home, but I never saw him use it."

"Alright then, you’ll have to come with us again," the comrade from the National Security Office said, not pressing further.

They then visited the homes of the other two women and received the same results.

While they did seize a significant amount of money, they didn’t uncover any critical information.

After dinner that evening, Su Hongchen specifically followed the comrades from the National Security Office to several nearby districts.

Mr. and Mrs. Su saw his hurried demeanor and knew something was up.

However, they didn’t voice their concerns and instead looked at Su Xiaoxiao, who was still busy cracking crabs.

"Xiaoxiao, make sure to find a safe time to visit your grandparents. Next week, you and Jiang are getting married; you need to introduce him to the elders first," Mrs. Su said worriedly.

She had already called home to mention what had been happening, but she refrained from visiting, fearing that those involved would target her family.

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly nodded, "Don’t worry, Mom. Yexun has already prepared everything; we’ll go tomorrow."

"It’s good that Jiang is so understanding. In the future, Xiaoxiao will be relying on you. This child always rushes through things and has a terrible memory," Mrs. Su said, smiling as she looked at Jiang Yexun, who was silently sitting by, picking crab meat.

The mother-in-law was increasingly fond of her son-in-law.

This boy not only helped their daughter crack crabs but also shared some with her and Mrs. Su.

If Xiaoxiao’s father didn’t dislike crabs, he would have even prepared some for his future father-in-law.

Wealthy, responsible, capable of problem-solving, and so attentive...

Not just her, even Mr. Su felt that both their ancestors’ graves must be smoking at the same time to have allowed their daughter to find such a great match.

But if Su Xiaoxiao knew their thoughts, she would only feel that the one whose tomb was truly smoking was the Gu family’s.

The next morning, Jiang Yexun came to pick up Su Xiaoxiao early, planning to visit her grandmother’s house.

But as soon as they stepped downstairs, they ran into Su Hongchen, who hadn’t returned all night.

"Brother!" Su Xiaoxiao waved at him as he stood by the roadside smoking.

Su Hongchen quickly ran over and glanced at the items Jiang Yexun was holding. "Are you going to your grandmother’s house?"

"Yeah, since Yexun and I are getting married soon, we need to introduce him to the family elders in advance," Su Xiaoxiao said, smiling and sounding somewhat proud.

But upon seeing the dark circles under Su Hongchen’s eyes, she reined in her smile, "Brother, you’re not waiting for us here on purpose, are you?"

"Yeah, we’ve found Wei Dexuan’s address in the countryside, but the things we found there weren’t much more than what we uncovered in the city. Do you want to come with us to check it out?" Su Hongchen suggested.

This was actually proposed by the comrades from the National Security Office, and deep down, he didn’t want his sister to get too involved in such matters.

However, upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao immediately nodded, "Sure! We can visit my grandparents in the afternoon or tomorrow. It’s just in time for the weekend, and Dad and Mom can come too. Plus, if we finish this matter, you can join us."

Yesterday, the strange feeling that had arisen in her heart certainly wasn’t just about uncovering a small amount of extra information.

"Let’s go; we’ll put the stuff in the car first," Su Hongchen said, glancing at Jiang Yexun before leading them to the car by the roadside.

As soon as the comrades from the National Security Office saw them approach, they immediately greeted them with smiles.

"Comrade Su, thank you for accompanying us on this trip."

"It’s nothing; I’m actually quite curious. But if you professionals haven’t found anything, I might not find anything either," Su Xiaoxiao said, feeling a bit embarrassed and somewhat hesitant.

After all, these individuals were relying on their specialized knowledge, while she was merely acting on instinct.

What if she couldn’t help at all? She worried about letting others down.
