Chapter 4: Emptying the Warehouse

"I understand. Even if our house is confiscated, I can't ignore my mother's funeral. So, I'll leave my mother's funeral to you, and I'll handle the rest myself."

"Yes!" Butler Lin nodded. Thinking of the people in the second house, he felt a little worried and asked, "Is it just the west courtyard?"

"I've already told you that if anyone dares to cause trouble at this critical moment, they'll be beaten out with sticks."

"I understand."

Butler Lin didn't ask any more questions and went straight to arrange the mistress's funeral.

After Steward Lin left, Yue Fuli looked at her brothers and sisters and instructed them, "Big brother, go and help Steward Lin with mother's funeral. Second brother and little sister, go to Songhe Hall and watch over grandmother. Don't let anything happen to her."

"Big sister, what about you?" Fu Yu looked at her sister and asked anxiously, "You won't abandon us, will you?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I have other things to do. Be good and go stay with grandma. Don't worry, I will never abandon you."

The children looked at Yue Fuli, and seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, they went back to their own business. However, thinking of their mother's death, they wiped away their tears as they walked.

After his younger brothers and sisters left, Yue Fuli called in the people in the mansion to arrange some things, and then turned and left the main hall.

Confiscating her property? That depends on whether she agrees.

Yue Fuli thought as she quickly entered her mother's study. She knew that this study not only held the palace's account books, but also the majority of the family's money and her mother's private savings. She didn't want to let the "dog emperor" get away with it, no matter how much it was.

Standing in the study, Yue Fuli's eyes quickly swept across every corner, finally stopping on a painting of a lady.

The person in the picture is none other than her mother, Su Yuanniang. At this moment, she happened to be looking at her daughter with a sweet smile, as if she knew what she was looking for.

After looking at the painting for a few seconds, Yue Fuli lifted it up, revealing a secret compartment inside. When she opened the secret compartment, a mechanism appeared before her eyes.

After twisting the mechanism, the cabinet next to it slowly moved, revealing a door.

Behind the door was a dark room, and Yue Fuli walked straight in. There were more than a dozen boxes of various sizes in the dark room.

Yue Fuli casually opened a box, and the white silver inside was instantly revealed.

Looking at the silver, Yue Fuli closed the lid without saying a word, raised his hand and put the box directly into the space.

Time was limited, so Yue Fuli didn't have time to open the boxes one by one and check them all. She put them all into the space. She didn't leave until there was nothing else in the dark room.

After putting away the things in the study, Yue Fuli rushed to the warehouse without stopping and put all the things in the warehouse into the space without missing a single one.

As warehouse after warehouse was emptied, Yue Fuli felt a flash of satisfaction.

I asked you to search my house, but I asked you to search nothing!

After collecting the things in the warehouse, Yue Fuli did not give up. She went to her grandmother's yard and collected her warehouse and private room.

After collecting things from several warehouses, the space was not even one percent full. Thinking of the abominations of the second house, Yue Fuli decided to collect more.

No matter whether it was the first or second wife, as long as it belonged to the general's mansion, she would make sure that the officials who were confiscating the property would not be able to find even a single hair.

In the west courtyard, all the people from the second house were turned back because of Yue Fuli's words.

At this time, Wu was speaking ill of Yue Fuli with her two other sisters-in-law, wanting to unite with them to put pressure on Yue Fuli and take control of the household affairs in the mansion.
